the bat against the panther....
batman gets worse beating than he got from bane.t'challa is a peak human equal with cap,possibly even higher,has insane skills not to mention enhanced senses in sight,smell and hearing. He surpasses wayne in every aspect:he is faster, more skilled, stronger,more ruthless and brutal and he is also a better strategist.
If the king gets prep we'll be making batsoup...

It's funny how everyone goes to "merely peak human", like most of his rogues gallery isn't enhanced.
Not to mention there's a ton of ringers out there. Shang Chi or Cassandra Cain isn't enhanced, but they sure can keep up with those who are.

Or maybe trying to remain within the context that normal humans will often see certain DC human heroes as metas. Remember how Cassandra Cain was evaluated as being a meta, with ‘2x human strength and 3x human speed.’ And how that caused issues because when they analyzed some blood splatter that was found they couldn’t find a meta gene ...and it is only when another scientist explained it that it made sense (that if one analyzed her movements they are not superhuman, they only appear to be so because it should be impossible for someone to move that efficiently ...and using some example of how it’s possible for a human to run a 3 minutes mile, hit a fast baseball, and do some other things ...but what is impossible is to do all of them at the same time).
This was when Cassandra Cain had sneaked into some government facility to rescue an agent.
Batman is likely very close to that. He would appear absolutely Meta to anyone looking at him. How he moves, for example, can seem like a speed blitz to the untrained in DC’s human society.
Add to this the fact that he has a plan for everything, which many don’t necessarily see as plans but rather as ‘abilities.’ Note too that society in general either thing he’s an urban legend, and after he came out publicly during the earthquake incidents, and his role in the JLA was made public, they thought he was a meta like the rest of the Demi-gods in the JLA.
After all, for someone to be a co-leader of continent breakers and moon movers, it would be assumed by most that person also had some super juice flowing through his veins.
Finally, consider the fact that people GENUINELY fear him. Not just criminals, but people in the JLA as well. One of the reasons Bruce never liked Hal Jordan for example is that Hal never showed fear for Bruce, which really annoyed the broody chap! Most others fear him, or, in the case of Kal and Diana, deeply respect him (with Kal calling him the real Superman).
Then there’s the fact that the first person sought on Earth by a Sinestro Ring was Bruce Wayne, with the ring indentifying him FIRST as the person capable of inspiring great fear in the whole SECTOR of the universe.
With all of that, I think the writer was remaining within context ...offering the perspective that many within DC’s human/meta/other population have about Batman.
That he is a meta, even when he’s not.
Although to be honest, there’s something about Bruce that ain’t right. If comics were real, the first person I’d kill (if I had the means, and I would) would be Superman (that creature needs to be destroyed ...Lex has the right idea, and Superman is a real threat ...as the former president of Pakistan, Pervez Musharraf, once said, you don’t measure you enemies by their good/bad will toward you, but rather by their capabilities. Superman is too strong to be let to survive). After Superman, the second person would be Batman. He is too much of a threat, and as long as he’s alive you always have to calculate that somehow ...somehow ...Batman is going to muck up your plans to rule the world (I mean, to help people ...).
Anyway ...I think the writer was within context. A character like Batman WOULD be seen as a real meta, even though as readers know he is not.
...or is he ... (I’ve always said that Bruce owns the One Ring from the LoTRs, and that is how he always disappears when no one is looking ...and how he can hide his heartbeat from Kryptonians and Martians ...)
