Well yeah, original poster said "they both get 1 day of prep." As for Rock of Ages, hell I possess and read all 43 (?) issues of Grant's run on JLA. Great stuff.

Haven't even read two.Only read one.The one where the remaining Justice Leaguers are in the future and Batman reveals that he is actually alive.

Then you have got to read more Batman issues. Don't take our word for it. Do you participate on any other messageboards? Ask them if they think Batman would defeat Iceman ***with 1 day of prep.***
Zod, oh -- the issue where he told them about his battle with Desaad and he shows the scars on his back? Again, if you found that entertaining, strongly consider a few of those TPBs -- especially the Prometheus Unbound story arc and...argh the one when General Eiling used The Shaggy Man's body. Ooh or the one with The Sandman, or the one with Johnny Thunder, or DC 1,000,000 with Superman 1,000,000 -- okay I'll stop.
I pick up whatever comic books the library has.They get different books every once and awhile.And I don't know any comic book stores close to my area.Oh and I'm coming out with my own comic book.I've been working on it for over a year now but I can't tell you much about it because I don't want to spoil it and I don't want someone to steal my idea.Just know that the character is similar to Superman.

You're not going to take my word for it. Ever since Grant Morrison touched Batman in the late 90's he's been referenced as "Batgod" due to his penchant for countering nigh anything given proper time to prepare.
Notice how many in the thread simply backed off when they noticed he had 1 day or prep?
Best of luck on the comic, Zod.
This is silly. Batman can have a month of prep and not beat Icegod. Remember, Icegod has prep, too. So he doesn't even have to appear in corporeal form. He can create a clone of himself on the battlefield. Batman can boom tube that if he wants to, but that ain't Bobby. Bobby is in the air around Batman, in the air Batman is breathing...he's completely invisible. Batman thinks to himself, "Man, kinda chilly out tonight", then he explodes from the inside out...
With no prep: Iceman 10/10
With prep: Iceman 10/10

Like...what? Saying, "He's BATMAN, he'll think of SOMETHING" is NOT VALID. Otherwise Bat fanboys can respond to a thread like, "Batman vs. TOAA" and say, "He's Batman, he'll think of SOMETHING", which is, of course, BS.Iceman 11/10.
So. Why did Batman "think of something" when Mageddon was about to destroy earth?
Why did Batman "think of something" when no one else could figure out the riddle of the 7s?
Why did Batman "think of something" when Prometheus took down the entire JLA save Superman the first time?
Why did Batman "think of something" when the JLA could not figure out how to defeat The Shaggy Man?
Why did Batman "think of something" when the white aliens took down the majority of the JLA in JLA #s 1 and 2?
Why did Batman "think of something" to defeat the entire JLA in the event they were subverted by aliens via mind control?
Again, I challenge you -- give me ONE thing that Bobby Drake overcame "with prep?" Hell, EMMA FROST had to give him a fat hint at how to better utilize his own ability.

Even Prometheus used something as simple as a neural disruptor to stop Green Lantern (guess what Prometheus had? PREP TIME). Kyle could not even form a coherent thought much less create a construct.
Iceman, with prep, melted himself into a room during Mutant X. Anyone who entered automatically froze. People, as they fled, were impaled. Nobody knew what was going on. They just...died. With prep, Iceman can be everywhere and nowhere. Ain't no preparing for that.
Yah, you gave me 1 after 10 minutes. I gave you 7 out of ONE run of JLA in 30 seconds. As if Batman will be sitting next door in a classroom.
And stop lying, Iceman is not and has never been ubiquitous.

"something" isn't a very good application of brain, is it? You're the writer - use YOUR brain. What can Batman come up with? I'm tired of people like Batman and Doom being excused from needing valid reasons to support a victory because they're walking plot devices. That doesn't fly here.
