Batman is Better Than Superman

OK, I need to settle this debate once and for all. There are hundreds of superheroes out there. Each superhero has something cool about him or her that makes them special. But, not all superheroes are created equal. Some are better than others. Vastly different. 

When it comes to superheroes, there isn't anyone who can beat Batman.

Batman is the man. He has no actual superpowers. He learned all his skills through dedication and practice. Sure, it helps that he's filthy rich, but he sure doesn't act like a rich guy. No polo for this tough warrior. Batman doesn't put up with anything. He's prepared for any situation and uses technology to solve problems. In fact, in terms of superheroes, Batman is as close to what a real-life superhero would be like.

There is only one superhero who can remotely compare to Batman, well, according to some people. These individuals believe Superman is better than Batman. Sure, he's Superman. He's super. He's got everything. He's stronger than steel. He's faster than a speeding train (a little outdated nowadays I think). He can stop bullets with his eyeball. He can fly. He has X-ray vision. Yes, he's quite the impressive superhero.

So why can't I like Superman? Simple: It seems like every villain he faces, beyond the bread and butter petty thug, kicks his butt. Seriously, if Superman is super, he shouldn't ever get bested. Superman has one fatal flaw: kryptonite, and somehow everyone in Metropolis has easy access to the stuff. What's up with that.

In my mind, a superhero that has everything going for him should be truly super.

Batman really has everything working against him in the world of superheroes, yet he makes it happen. The Dark Knight is the real deal.
