Although by forum rules we know that crossovers are not to be used here becsuse if the PIS writing that so dominstes these crossovers, however I skways felt that the Bats/Cap meetings were the most correctly done encounters in comics, meaning.......the few times that thry fought, Bruce has acknowledged thst Steve might have a slight advantage, just saying, that's all.

Cap adapted on the fly to alien martial arts with mastery of defenses against them in minutes to what Kang compared as decades of training to learn. This is on top of both narration where he claims to know all the forms of martial arts *and* beating characters who also have "mastery of all forms of martial arts.*
Batman, multiple times, gets his hands full with people who are master level anything. He's randomly been near beaten by 1 sub-master level ninja the size of Crossbones.The only notion towards Cap's favor there is that his mind like his body is enhanced, so in terms of adaptation Cap's likely to adapt faster to Batman than the alternative. But I wouldn't say that's an easy clinch or anything.
Batman adapted to Val Armorr's Zero G "Space Karate"

as far as physical goes, that's definitely going to Cap. The main thing Cap has over Batman is he has actual war experience. Cap knows strategic maneuvers better than Batman because he is used to dealing with more than just a handful of people.
Someone else want to post the prison riot scan?
The serum might yield measurable bumps in a couple specific areas like stamina, but overall it would just keep Bats at his current level with less need for training.
IOW, Bats would get diminishing returns on all the time he spends training, which would mean he would spend even more time making contingency plans for how to kill his friends.
Batman w/ serum = super villain.

All the SSS did was make Cap from a 98lb twerp, into an athletic physique (Ironically, probably the Aryan ideal the Nazi's were pushing)
A perfect human specimen would be a mixture of all ethnicities. Monkey Wrench in the works LOL. So since they couldn't get around the fact, they had to quit while they were ahead of the game. We're all connected, and we were all originally from Africa. The Neanderthal, and Denisovans is what changed things.

Over the millennia's people adjusted to the climate of that region of the world that they lived in. Which is why we all look different.
Yep, but we're all connected according to scientific studies. However, it was Homo Erectus that won, pushing the Denisovan, and Neanderthal out of the picture. Lol kidding no one knows what happened to those people. Anyway, the SSS would only increase Bruce's stamina, and slightly increase his strength level. We've already seen other people affected by the SSS.
Depends on how one interprets the effects of the SSS. If it makes the user THE perfect specimen, Bat's would become Cap's physical equal in every respect and his brainpower would prob go up just a bit since he's got a far amount more brainpower through learning than Cap has and it would then be processed by a physically perfect brain/mind. He'd be improved, but definitely not by a truckload. On the other hand, if the end result is more along the lines of maximizing the genetic potential of the recipient, Bat's would strait up blow Cap out of the water because Bruce was born with WAY better genes than Steve was.

lol, of course Batman has been at war. Several times.==
As far as the thread goes... If we go by the whole "the serum amplifies what's already there", we'd basically end up with an even more psychotic Batman.
Originally posted by SmurphDo you guys think he'd go full Batman who laughs, or something more subtle?

Regardless, a more psychotic and or super villain Batman sounds awesome.
As for this thread, I think his physical stats would be pretty close to what they are now. But it all depends on how the SSS is being described currently in Marvel. If it's drifted from peak human to enhanced/superhuman territory then his stats get bumped.
