You get whichever one you want and their complete resources/attention.
Who could teach you more (and what would they teach) in one month that would then be useful in RL?

Batman by a long shot. Punisher would probably get you killed.

Batman would hand you a book and tell you to stay in school.

Punisher would make you enlist.

Either way I don't need 'em!

batman has 100x the resources and probably slightly better training (i dont know who compares better ninjas or navy seals) but depending on the mission batman is the answer like 99.9/100

I prefer to have Batman as a teacher. He knows a lot more than just kicking people's asses.

Franck is a bit of a psycho.

It's really not fair to have that picture with the dinosaur in it and expect people to not just automatically choose Batman based on that alone. What I can only assume is some kind of robot dinosaur..so f*ck the Punisher. Plus Batman is rich.

Frank could definitely teach me more in one month than Batman.

Seriously, how many of you think you can learn to be a super ninja in one month? I might be in better shape after a month, but I wouldn't be able to do shit that wouldn't just get me killed in two seconds in a fight against someone with a gun.

Frank could at least teach me to use weapons. That I can learn in a month.

Batman can do more than just ninja-ing, though.

He could teach you different languages. Lock-picking. Disguises. Weapons training (and unarmed combat). Advanced driving and piloting skills. Computer hacking. The best clubs and societies to hang out in, in order to meet celebs. How to gamble, make cocktails, be a general ladies' man. Hell, even meditation techniques to enable you to survive on 3 hours' sleep a day, freeing you up to learn even more things. Escape artistry. General first aid (including modules on poisons and assassination techniques).

The meditation thing alone, if mastered early on in the month, is already a massive boon.

And if we're being realistic, I might half-learn one of those things in a month at best

and I'm definitely not learning how to get by on 3hrs sleep in real life.

He doesn't have a robot dinosaur in his lair though. You didn't even address that fact.

Batman can give me some money. punisher is broke. money wins

Why do I get the feeling the lair of the Punisher is probably just the back of a U-Haul truck?

Without even any candy.

I agree.

Look at the students that each have had, and the answer should be crystal clear.

Batman wins this by a country mile.

Except that the question refers to you specifically, not to fictional students for whom the laws of physics, time, memory, etc hardly apply.

I'm assuming Bats can teach this to us:

Which frees up a LOT of time in that month to teach us.

That's cute that you think in a few days you can learn an advanced fictional mediation technique when real life monks may spend years achieving far less.

How long did Batman take? I mean, am assuming comic book physics still applies to us as well, right?

Even without it, he still has a far FAR wider field of knowledge to draw upon, which Punisher doesn't. I mean, I don't need to know 1259 different ways to kill a man, or how to handle automatic rifles/grenade launchers, or how to clean a rifle in the field, or how to defuse/make bombs - and even if I did, Bats also has that knowledge. And more.

Edit: If we were using comic book physics it would definitely be Batman by a mile

Also references Batman and the Punisher, lol - two guys who are 'humans' who do 'human' things.

Despite that, you think that Bats with his full attention and a month, couldn't teach you how to make cocktails? Taste wine? The finer points of suits (when to choose single/double vents, lapel width, pleats etc), how to tie Windsor/half-Windsor knots, how to tie a cravat/bowtie? Hell, even things like lip-reading, or lock-picking can be taught in a day or two - it's the practice which will take time.

And if you THEN wanted to learn how to use weapons or unarmed combat, again, that can also be taught by Bats. He just has a wider knowledge base, that is more applicable to the 'real world'.

Batman, easily.

Surprised DS went the jokey route with his responses.
Cogito really has made the best argument(s).

Thanks, Cogito.

BATMAN PEREIOD

Yeah but they're teaching me, and I'm bound by being relatively stupid and inept.

I think I can learn to make cocktails in a bartending class, I don't think my palate is refined enough to care about the finer points of wine tasting, I can't afford the suit conversation and even if I could, I could learn that from a decent tailer or even a youtube video, I think I can learn everything else you just listed from youtube.

When I started thinking about all this I was thinking strictly along the lines of who could teach me how to survive in a dangerous situation better, and I chose Punisher because he'd actually teach me how to point a gun and shoot it. I guess I made that assumption based on the fact that Frank was one of the teaching options.

I may have been wrong about that, and if I was then it'd be Bruce all day. I've gotten by this far without finding myself in a shootout, and I like my odds going forward. Aside from that, Frank has nothing to teach me. Bruce has all kinds of shit, I'm just trying to be realistic about how much I can learn.

Bruce could give me money. Show me where to invest so i can amass a fortune. Then i can hire my own teachers after the month is up.

Frank can give me antmans helmet so i can rob a bank and hed shoot me immediately afterwards


Tough decision

Like i said, its who could teach you things you could use in RL.
I would disagree that surviving a shootout is all Frank is good for, though, but of course it would be pretty major.
