Either way, with super speed, wind/ice breath, and laser vision, Superman would totally wipe the floor with Batman, without even getting in close, in an emotionally unfettered one-on-one regardless of what we've been led to believe in storylines like The Dark Knight Returns or the Tower of Babel. There are a lot of technically overpowered heroes in the DC universe that could give Superman a run for his money, but I don't think Batman is one of them. I say this as an old Marvel nerd more than a DC one though, so maybe I'm off. (though I can't really read either anymore...just so much social politics and soap opera than action adventure in the big two).Originally posted by Bill the Cat View PostComment

It's a fight for fun. Can Clark beat Batman without injuring him in a sparring match? And why would Batman use kryptonite in a sparring match? Unless he wanted to train Superman to fight even when under the influence of kryptonite.Originally posted by Bill the Cat View PostIf it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!Comment

well if they went to someplace under a red sun, then I would bet Batman would win. He has more experience in actual fighting, where Superman mostly relies on his superpowers to defeat bad guys.

Of course Batman would win in that scenario! The version of Clark in the movie doesn't really have any fighting skills. So, Batman ought to teach him some skills. Thus the sparring match. Still might be dangerous. Clark could accidentally kill Bruce when superpowered.Originally posted by Sparko View PostIf it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!Comment

Of course. I'm talking about a hypothetical training session and the probability that Clark would accidentally injure Bruce by sparring with him.Originally posted by 37818 View PostIf it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!Comment

What would happen if Clark somehow started acting like Tigger(red kryptonite, magic, super caffeine)?If it weren't for the Resurrection of Jesus, we'd all be in DEEP TROUBLE!Comment

I meant to write this earlier, but my phone went wacko.
I think the movie is a mixed bag. It's not a bad movie, but it's not"Concentrate on what you have to do. Fix your eyes on it. Remind yourself that your task is to be a good human being; remind yourself what nature demands of people. Then do it, without hesitation, and speak the truth as you see it. But with kindness. With humility. Without hypocrisy."

What if you had x-ray vision? Could you promise never to do anything naughty with it?Originally posted by Christianbookworm View PostComment

would using it cause people to get cancer?Originally posted by Adrift View Post
In the real world, OSHA would ban superman from using X-Ray vision because of the ionizing radiation. Can you imagine the lawsuits he would have?

Good point.Originally posted by Sparko View Post
Technically though, it's probably better to call Superman's X-ray vision see-through vision since he can apparently see a lot more than a standard X-ray shows. Course, he still can't see through led, so...there's that.Comment

yeah... never explained how it works. It would have to beam something out to penetrate the object, and somehow bounce back to his retinas so he could actually see through it. And be able to focus it a different levels or he would just see through everything and therefore not actually see anything.Originally posted by Adrift View Post
And his super hearing is odd too. It appears to have a volume control and some sort of focus, otherwise he would be deafened when someone up close made a sound.

Y'all are overthinking this. It's like how comic books and cartoons use to have lasers blow things up or disintegrate rather than burn a whole through it.
