- rentmitchum, on 05/07/2008, -4/+84Batman is better because Iron Man can't say "I'm Batman" without lying.
- coyote1284, on 05/07/2008, -0/+60I'm a D.C. - I'm a Marvel (look it up on YouTube)
Iron Man: I don't have family issues
Batman: I don't have syphilis - gcnaddict, on 05/07/2008, -3/+56The point was that Stark can make his own stuff in the middle of a cave, while Wayne simply uses gadgetry designed by his company.
I put the advantage in Wayne's court, though, because I personally prefer someone who has been forcibly trained in martial arts as opposed to someone whose abilities only come from an iron suit. - Marvelboy, on 05/07/2008, -3/+56This is the most amazing comments section I've seen on gizmodo...there's not one mention of apple.
zing! - sfacets, on 05/07/2008, -5/+51Asking the wrong question - how awesome would Batman be if he were wearing the Ironman costume?
- godzillaWax, on 05/07/2008, -3/+47"Can he make his own gadgets without having to go run for help to daddy's company?"
? Stark and Wayne both run their father's companies. - KnightMareInc, on 05/07/2008, -4/+42batman has a cooler car
- souljaboytellem, on 05/07/2008, -3/+35I dont think Batman ever endagered the world with his weapon technology though, and Batman has way more bad-ass villians
- akatherder, on 05/07/2008, -10/+38How can you compare two characters when Batman strives to have an ounce of realism while Iron Man is a ***** flying robot suit?
- halleyscomet, on 05/07/2008, -2/+25Give him a hour and a phone call to Oracle and he'll have the blueprints for Stark's Suit and 5 different gadgets for disabling it / cutting off it's power.
Oh, wait, this is Batman, he ALREADY has those things. Anyone remember the story arc where it turned out he had files on how to neutralize ALL the Justice league members "Just in case.?" He had viable plans for taking out Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash and everyone else and ALL OF THEM WORKED.
Batman had his pan for taking down Iron Man in place years ago and knowing Batman, it will only take about five minutes to implement, if that. Stark may be smarter, but Batman is the better planner. - craighoxton, on 05/07/2008, -1/+24Chicks dig the car
- toxicityj, on 05/07/2008, -3/+22Iron Man is his own car...
- LynchMOB, on 05/07/2008, -7/+26Aquaman!!
- rawg, on 05/07/2008, -1/+19Best comment is from philander...
"This is easy. Batman. Batman is real and IRON MAN is just a movie." - SpencerMc, on 05/07/2008, -2/+20In Dark Knight Returns he had a pretty sweet robosuit he used to be the ***** out of Superman with. That's pretty much the same thing.
- Haroshia, on 05/07/2008, -2/+19Give batman 30 minutes to prepare and he can kick any ass that needs kickin.
- SpencerMc, on 05/07/2008, -0/+17Alright, I'm gonna go on the record as saying I'm sick of everyone bad talking Aquaman. I mean, the guy got his hand bit off by a parrana and replaced it with a *****' TRIDENT. And that's just going by current comic continuity. If you go by the animated universe continutiy, he CUT HIS OWN *****' HAND OFF! The guy is hardcore like woah.
- gopher043, on 05/07/2008, -2/+19Wait a second, Batman LIVES in a cave.
- thestaton, on 05/07/2008, -2/+19batman hands down.
- fuhcough, on 05/07/2008, -0/+16uncle hank is that you?
- logicalnoise, on 05/07/2008, -4/+19to be fair the actual tony stark from the comics is pretty giant douche. Batman is of course borderline psychotic but all in all wayne would probably still win out against stark as long as batman has enough info.
- MRintheKeys, on 05/07/2008, -1/+16Superman would bitch slap Iron Man. A 60 year old Batman bitch slapped Superman. Ergo, Batman would beat the living ***** out of Iron Man.
- Bahimiron, on 05/07/2008, -1/+15The hard hitting news that keeps Gizmodo on my radar.
I look forward to seeing the return fire salvo from Engadget. - halleyscomet, on 05/07/2008, -1/+15Thing is, Batman HAS a power suit. He just doesn't use it very often. It's loud, bulky and power suits are kinda gay.
- Razyael, on 05/07/2008, -1/+14What, are you dense? Are you retarded or something? Who the hell do you think I am? I'm the goddamn Batman.
- RolltheStampede, on 05/07/2008, -2/+15Adam West FTW. LOL
- Drahkar, on 05/07/2008, -1/+14Hard to say. He'd lose a lot of his mobility & agility that he uses to lay the smack down.
- brufleth, on 05/07/2008, -1/+14"It's like the difference between MacGuyver and the A-Team."
Greatest analogy ever. - nukethewhales, on 05/07/2008, -0/+12I hate to play the role of Comic Book Guy but if no one else is going to do it then I have to.
So a new superhero movie comes out and some noob tries to start an argument based on it, ignoring years of history behind the characters. Most of the premises behind his argument are flawed and he ignores the fact that most of the time, Tony Stark is a huge ***** tool. - inactive, on 05/07/2008, -1/+13there are no girls on digg, that was gay as *****
- Tollofsen, on 05/07/2008, -2/+14Yeah but how freaking often does the Iron Man suit break? Pretty much all the ***** time. Besides, Batmans EMP would ***** it up.
- rentmitchum, on 05/07/2008, -2/+13Somehow I could see Batman getting mad about Iron Man flying around and saying something like "That's not flying.. That was.. falling with style!"
Then Randy Newman music would start. "I could fwy if I wanted to!!" - pukiman, on 05/07/2008, -3/+14Batman is real and Iron Man is not :rolleyes:
- gopher043, on 05/07/2008, -0/+10Put Bats in the Iron Man suit and he would be unstoppable. Put Stark in the Batsuit and even Robin could kick his ass.
- Marvelboy, on 05/07/2008, -1/+10Fair enough...
- gopher043, on 05/07/2008, -0/+9Which in turn was the biggest plot hole in the entire movie.
- Orion682, on 05/07/2008, -3/+12Rather than make what's essentially a mobile weapons platform, Wayne would've created tear gas or something and used it when the terrorists came in to talk to them, and then dragged the scientist dude out with him and fled into the desert.
Sometimes simple is better. It's like the difference between MacGuyver and the A-Team. - oblomoloko, on 05/07/2008, -1/+10I didn't know Digg had sponsored articles nowadays... Liked the movie though!
- MadHarvey, on 05/07/2008, -1/+9Wrong Bruce Sir.
- NeoNevermore, on 05/07/2008, -3/+11Don't you mean Seaman?
- kevlarbaboon, on 05/07/2008, -1/+9You must be some sort of scientist being able to figure that out.
- foolishpuck, on 05/07/2008, -0/+8The Sub-Mariner!!
- inactive, on 05/07/2008, -0/+8Batman, because he's the god damned batman.
- Theisos, on 05/07/2008, -0/+7Hyped tools of American bigotry...rock!
- gopher043, on 05/07/2008, -1/+8Take Tony Stark out of the Iron Man suit and take Bruce Wayne's mask away and Bruce would still kick the snot out of Stark. Bruce Wayne will never lose his knowledge of fighting or his agility. Tony Stark losses all his weapons and power. Tony has no knowledge of fighting. Hell he even has problems with the 12 step program.
- sovietninja, on 05/07/2008, -0/+7Ironman raped half of the Marvel Universe during Marvel Civil War.
Enough said. - gopher043, on 05/07/2008, -1/+8Bats has gone up against Supes and won.
- Jdub7, on 05/07/2008, -0/+7Bot h batman and iron man inherited their billions. Both are accomplished business men in their own right.
- halleyscomet, on 05/07/2008, -3/+10And a better plane.
And a better boat.
Don't forget the hang glider.
Anyone remember the Batman's frigging TRAIN that uses a hidden connection to the Gotham subway?
Besides, Batman DOES have a power suit. He just doesn't wear it that often because he thinks it's pretty, well, gay. - StormTroopr, on 05/07/2008, -1/+8Or the Lazarus pits
