Sorry if I spelled his name wrong.

This is h2h with no gadgets.They are both peak human or slightly superhuman.
Who wins?

RomulusX
Well.... He handled Rorschach and Nightowl pretty easily (both with about a 5 to 6 fighting level).

Not sure if that's enough to withstand a bat-kick though...

Lord_Talron
you guys kno where my vote is. ozy takes this, but not easily

Enyalus
Batman's a proven commodity. We know how elite his H2H skills are, without basing it off of beating 2-3 characters of questionable talent.

Batman's gotta get the win here.

Lord_Talron
watchmen has plenty of background information about ozymandias.

Comic Batman vs movie Ozy is a toss-up in pure h2H.

comic ozy is exactly the same as movie, if not a little better

I would love to here your logic behind that.

Movie Ozy was a bullet timer and had elevated physical strength.

Ozy IMO for a slight slight majority.

In the comic the detectives discuss how it probably would have taken two or three people to do some of what Ozy had done, like kicking open a deadbolted door and picking up and throwing a 220 lb man through plate glass windows.

I think movie Ozy appeared to be stronger and faster and he was certainly faster but they were about the same in terms of strength.

Really if you look at the feats of everyone in that movie even Silk Specter II could qualify for Peak status given how she sent one of the Knot Tops flying with a kick. And how she and Dan were easily breaking limbs with their punches.

Movie Ozy's durability is thus rather impressive considering that when Dan was super-pissed bone-breaking punches barely drew blood after five or six free shots.

As said before Movie Ozy due to extreme damage soak and superior speed could take Bats but comic Ozy gets beaten rather handily.

The Nuul
I wonder how would Ozy deal with some sonics?

The Nuul
Bats has beaten Slade, Bane and other low end/enhanced superhumans before. Oxy would just be one more victim.

I don't believe he's ever beaten Venom Bane. He beats or (just as often) stalemates with non-Venomed Bane and as for Deathstroke that isn't really accurate, Slade has beaten Bats way more than the reverse and I can't think of a single clean victory Bruce has over Slade that didn't involve help or Slade being distracted.

I don't see how people think Ozy has superior stats to Batman.

Not superior. But certainly comparable. Especially with Movie Ozy. Ozy may even have an edge in reflexes seeing as Batman has never (to my knowledge) caught a bullet that was fired while his back was mostly turned.

Maybe not caught, but swatting away machine gunfire with his forearm is a more impressive feat imo.

Yes and no. The fact that he swatted multiple bullets is more impressive than if it were just a single bullet but catching and blocking are two very different things.

Swatting away multiple bullets is much more impressive.

Not to mention much more impossible. stick out tongue Also his Bat gauntlets must be pretty ****ing tough because even if they didn't penetrate the bullets would still leave serious bruises or maybe even fracture/shatter his wrist.

Then again it is Batman.

all movie ozy got over batman is maybe and i repeat just MAYBE speed thats it, fighting skills goes to batman, durability and damage soak goes to batman since ozy was all bleeding after 5 punches from dan, strength goes to batman he did crazy things before what did ozy do? throw a man out of a bulletproof window? laughing

Aside from being punched multiple times w/o fighting back, everything that Ozy did in the comics he did in the movies as well. Aside from the costume looking cooler in the movie, there's not much difference...

Doctor-Alvis
My memory is a little hazy, but I don't remember the comic versions of any of the characters having the strength of a thousand men like they did in the movie.

Martian_mind
That would be because they didn't.

The fight scene in the GN was completely different as well. Rorschach and Nite Owl went down in one hit each. Owl was pwned by a plate FFS. No displays of strength or skill anywhere near Batman.

theres several indications in the book that lead me to believe he is slightly superhuman

The Nuul
I guess the 12 issue limited series with very little feats >> every Batman comic since 1939.

Batman would beat Ozy, way better and more feats.

Juntai
iirc, he was written as an olympic level athlete and that it was impressive because he was in his 40s. The only thing I recall that would lead someone to believe he's superhuman is when they said it was rumored he's fast enough to catch a bullet.

All in all, he doesn't have any feats, or even theories, that would put him over Batman.

Batman would beat Ozy, way better and more feats. No but if batmans most consistent showings say that he is peak human and ozy's 12 issues show he is slightly superhuman we have to draw form that.
The most consistent showings.

So 2 people is a common consensus? Lulz.

Again, this laughable attempt at a "point" doesn't in any way suggest a reason for why Ozymandias is supposedly above Batman, especially when he doesn't have the feats to justify such a claim.

Indeed.

It becomes quite clear when you have at least a fundamental understanding of Batman.

The Nuul
Bats has beaten low superhumans and enhanced humans before not that Ozy has many feats on this level to begin with. And also Ozy is NO Cap. This will not be like an Cap, Slade or Bane vs Bats fight.

But lacks the feats. If there were more issues and feats then Ozy might be on their level.

Well, they did show Ozy tossing a 250-pound man (The Comedian) out of a reinforced window in the comic.

On top of that, he caught a bullet in the same manner as the movie.

I don't think he wins against batman, but to imply that the movie Ozy is far superior to the comic character is simply not true.

Lunacyde
Batman. He has so many more feats that it really isn't even funny. Throwing a 250 lb man through a reinforced glass window is in no way out of Batman's level of ability. Sure Ozy caught a bullet, but he that is about his only valid feat that is impressive. Also catching a bullet is stupid, why catch a bullet when you could dodge it?

I'm going with the man who has demonstrated the ability to lift 1,000 pounds over his head, knows at least 127 forms of combat, and literally has decades of feats to back him up instead of one graphic novel.

Lolwtf?

That is one of the worst analogies you could possibly make. If Daredevil had superior feats to Juggernaut, then you're analogy would be acceptable, but he doesn't. However, if the above were true, then you're entire argument would be null, as it would generally be accepted that DD is superior.

In any case, people like to use the example of Ozymandias throwing the Comedian through a reinforced window as an indication of his strength. I'll give you a directly comparable feat of Batman's that is >>>>>>>> Ozymandias' feat.

Batman throws Dr. Death through a reinforced metal door that was built to withstand cruise missiles.

Dr. Death is one of the smartest scientists on the face of the planet.

Regardless of what you want to nitpick at, it's pretty undeniable that that feat by Batman is more impressive than Ozymandias'.

And in any case, there's are tons upon TONS of feats to pull from that showcase the fact that Batman is superior to Ozymandias outside of the one example I used. Do you want to label all of those feats PIS too?

You're missing the point.

The justification behind Batman's superiority isn't simply that "he's in more comics than Ozymandias." Nobody is saying that.

In the movie he was kicking and throwing Rorschach and Niteowl across the room. Though in the same respect, everyone upped the ante in the movie. I was not expecting so much exposed bone when Niteowl and Silk Spectre fought those thugs.

You are misinterpreting what I wrote. I am not saying that Batman wins because he has been in more comics, I am saying that Batman wins because for every feat you give me for Ozy I can find multiple for Batman that are equally impressive or possibly even more so. I am basicallly saying the factual base of my argument has a lot more evidence to back it, therefore is much more sound than a defense of Ozy which is based on a handful of feats in one Graphic novel.
