What if Batman had a super power

What if Batman had one super power. What would you want it to be and why?

Photogenic memories, à la Taskmaster

It's the only one that wouldn't bust his character, and the only one that would explain where Bruce found the time to train in so many martial arts.

I like this n good point!

I've thought for awhile deadpool's power would make Batman perfect for what he does n aims to be. He'd literally be unstoppable n gothams protector forever!

Reality warping

You mean being Batman doesn't count as a superpower?

Batman already has a superpower. Two of them, actually. They're called "left leg", and "right leg."

An elevated sense of humility.

An advanced healing factor would be amazing for batman!

My personal selection would be eternal youth. He would never grow old or die from old age but he would still be mortal in every other way possible. He would be the same batman but he could protect gotham forever!

It would be pretty cool to see an alternate version of Batman with a much-reduced version of Jack Hawksmoor's powers tied specifically to Gotham.

Like, if he could meld with Gotham, listen and feel through it, and remained functionally immortal within it.

I'd keep him the way that he is, but give him the uncanny ability to invent anything needed to combat a particular threat. basically Forge's ability without the magics.

Can't he already do that?

Better than Forge or anyone save maybe Reed Richards

Maybe

Actually probably better then him too.

BY THE POWER OF BATGOD!!!

What about Doom?

Hell no.

Nah not quite the same as Forge can. If Marvel ever decided to flesh out Forge, he would make Iron Man redundant with all of the things that he could come up with.

That would be a cool Elseworlds one-shot. Either real powers or a trippy drug induced dream.

Magic of some sort. Let it conflict with his scientific mind.

Batkick......

Oh wait.

The ability to change sexes, let's see more conflict in his life.

I've been trying to sit here and think of a Super Power for Batman that doesn't take away from the Batman character. I would guess one of the main reasons people like him is that he is 'supposed' to be a 'normal' human yet he still manages to be a threat and put his life on the line. I know he's any but normal but the notion is still supposed to be there.

A list of powers I think wouldn't take from that could be:

1) The ability to see glimpses of future crimes
2) The ability to touch a dead body and see their last moments through their eyes.
3) One that was already mentioned was Photogenic memories
4) Enhanced Senses
5) Maybe a weaker version of a Spider Sense to tell him something bad is going to happen.
