Originally posted by h1a8Batman does consistantly perform on the level of those feats I mentioned though. I don't see how it's PIS, when it's consistant both in his own series and in sidestories. Stuff like fighting off Superman, even temporarily is PIS, given that what happened in Sacrifice could happen, but even the Hush battle was explained as him relying on Superman being.. good..
I doubt that batman is a better fighter. I think they are very much evenly matched in their own unique way. Quotes shouldn't be used since cap's quotes are not used. I doubt batman is a better at striking either. There is plenty of proof showing the striking power of cap as well.And these feats by batman are PIS. Since he rarely ever performs like this and the fact that it is accepted by anyone of good sense that these things are impossible by humans.
But his striking power? I don't see that. You're just coming off the wall now with trying to discredit him. He consistantly shows his striking power as being extreme. He often downs his opponents in a blow or two. Metahumans or not.
Hell, when Batman stopped playing around, he even dominated Batgirl/Cass in a fight, proving he could kill her in a single offensive move. He's definately the better fighter here.
All it comes down is the Cap fans trying to use DESCRIPTION of what Cap has, as if it compares or beats Batman. The problem is in application. Batman consistantly shows that he can outperform Captain America, issue to issue.
