Captain America vs Batman(no shield-no gadgets)

Once I find and reinstall my CS5 and bump of the resolution and sharpen the image, Sophia.

I don't understand thinking that Bruce or Cap have a physical edge over each other - much like I don't understand thinking Slade is physically superior to either.

I think it looks most like a five upon ridiculously close scrutiny, lol. I also think that even with that scrutiny, I can't actually tell whether there are two discs on the side closest to us (as in, whether the probably-500 pound disc is the closest, smallest disc, or a very large disc and the only one on that side). I actually see that fact as being more important since it would effectively halve or more-than-double the feat depending on your perspective, but I really can't tell how much weight Bruce is supposed to be lifting there.

Bench press feats are stupid anyways. Short of us being outright told how many reps they're doing and what each rep is consisting of, one panel doesn't tell us much.

i don't want to get into this, but i have this and posting it will never really be necessary any other time

batman can't save a little girl cause a boulder is too heavy for him to move:

so when he gets home he's naturally going to relive his initial trauma, which he does by turning the clocks to the time his parents got wet up, and tries to lift a barbell the same weight as the boulder:

now, comic character can improve supernaturally, but for batman to lift the suggested weight of 2000 lbs (or 1000) as part of his morning routine a few years later after tearing his deltoid trying to deadlift just over half of the lowest possible weight being suggested...just seems like a huge boost if it's legit.

Just the last page I posted an example of him dead-stopping a 600 pound speeding man-bat and then swinging him around like a crazed cowboy.

Nowadays, he bench-presses 600 pounds even in this conditions:

Starting with the JLA years, he has gotten far more formidable.

And then Batman became a drug addict. 😎

Didn't he punch out the JLA in his early days? 😂

You're kidding right?

Jesus some of the arguments made in this thread are silly. Taking feat wars to an extreme is just stupid.

So that makes it 1000lbs+ on one side alone, which makes this quite insane.

I agree with you about Bruce and Cap being roghly physical equals, but Slade is above them.

He's blatantly Batman's physical superior and a legit superhuman, something neither of them are.

Speaking of the tree scene from a few pages ago, say hello to Hush:

Based on?

He later attributes this victory to his physical stats, and wouldn't want to face him in equal bodies:

Sure, that was not yet 'batgod', but even when they met again, Slade physically dominated him:

Moments later, Batman tries again, and fails again:

He's basically lucky Deathstroke's attention is not on him, otherwise he'd have gotten easily beaten.

This is consistent with later on, when Batman needs Nightwing and Robin to take him on, in Infinite Crisis.

His superhuman stats make up for his inferior skill.

There's 4 weights, with the 500 lbs one being the second heaviest.

There's nothing similar there, at all. The 4 plates are blatantly shown, with the 500lbs one being the second biggest.

That's a cool scan of Cap benching 2,200 lbs.

imo, it looks like a 500 lbs weight and a smaller one in front of it, like this:

Agreed, but Sophia is trying to Batsurbate here, leave him be.

Originally posted by psycho gundam
i see what you're saying, the four shadowy parts are the undersides of the weights.

And Srank, you're being desperately pathetic these last few pages - real, not insulting talk.
