Come now I though it would be obvious by now
People connect with the batman because of the people he lost and they really really like him because of the stuff he as accomplished.
but I'm an angry, dark, bitter SOB who thinks he's above the law. Man, I'd rather have the money and the car.
The reason why people like the batman is because he does things morally and physically that people like ourselves cannot do. We would rather have the money than revenge. Something you my friend just proved.
Actually that doesn't really work. I would much rather have the capability of exacting revenge, but I do not. Why? Because I'm not above the law. Batman is 'above the law' in the aspect that they can't catch him and/or his money is a fail-safe. When you're a multi-billionaire you don't answer to the same laws as average people. Personally I'd much rather have the right to quench my vengeance, but I don't have the means to do so.
By the way in case you did not know every superhero in the dc is above the law. Whether batman had money or did not have any money that alone would not have made any difference. He would still be above the law.
Actually it does work why he parents were killed in front of his eyes instead of becoming one of the most brutal serial killers, or go insane (case in point the punisher) he chose however to compose himself and be one of the best crime fighters there is.
And I believe this was from you. You state that you would rather have the money than the revenge.
And given time to do his work batman can take down any body just asked darksied
No, I said I'd rather have the money than being a bitter, angry SOB. That's different from revenge. And many of the other heroes have a respect for the law, above it or not. Batman doesn't.
Lol, what exactly did Batman do to Darkseid? Superman has difficulty, but Batman happens to find a way to beat him? Brilliant writing. Nevertheless, Thor does not have weaknesses. He can destroy Batman before Wayne has a chance to get near him. The only way Batman could 'take him down' is if he managed to get Odin on his side.
Oh no, run, the old and feared "prep-time argument" strikes back .

He says Batman has this motherbox dealie which makes a forcefield around him. It allowed Batman to not die at the hands of Darkseid I guess. That was his big secret weapon that he said he'd use to murder Ironman if the EMP didn't work.
But I'm I lying? just read
Ask Havoc470 and you would see.
Batman set up so that darksied would not kill him and it worked and on top of that he now has a wide variety of weapons from Apocalypse, Kryptonian, New gods tech, and tanagarian tech (Star crossed anyone)
I said give him time, this is Thor who?-kid , not some deathstroke wanna be. I did not say to go punch thor in his sleep that would not even work for crying out loud.
Batman has respect for the law. He might not show it the way others do but you can see commissioner gordon as a close friend, and how he has worked with harvey dent, and his partner.
Wrathofachilles said and I quote
Wrahtofachilles you wrote (Man, I'd rather have the money and the car.)
And I agree with you we would rather have the money than go out for revenge. And mostly spend our lives going to one therapy session to the next. And I am not saying that revenge is a good choice either. (And darksied is a god (Please do not raost me go check it out))

In an infinite universe anything is possible. Even pigs having wings and bacon flying. Therefore, since anything is possible, it is (very, very remotely) possible that Batman might beat Thor.
But, I refer you to the X-Men movie:
Storm: Do you you know what happens to a toad when lightning strikes it?
The same thing that happens to anything else...
My vote goes to Thor.
I am a big Batman fan, and will always be, but a mere mortal (or puny human, as our giant green friend would say) against the God of Thunder?
Why do people quote me? I know what I said. I mean I'd rather have the money and the car than be a bitter angry SOB. That doesn't mean I'd rather have money than have the RIGHT to go out for revenge. Besides, I was being facetious and personally I'd rather have both since this is a completely make-believe situation. As for my therapy, that's a different debate. What does this have to do with Thor vs. Batman anyway...
nothing, it kind of splintered out into that convo somewhere in the last page i think heheh
by the way a toad getting struck by lightning would simply die, where as ray park is contracted for another xmen movie as toad, so the technical answer to that question is "the toad will come back, but halle berry isn't" lol
