The showdown between Batman and Iron Man is a popular topic among comic fans. Both Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark are leaders in their own worlds as businessmen and fearless warriors as heroes. But which character reigns supreme? Let’s start with the comparison of both companies: Wayne Enterprises and Stark Industries. Not only are both companies’ giants in the technology and weapon industries, but Wayne Enterprises also has monopolies in agriculture, media and commodities. Having influence on the economic flow throughout the world creates astonishing wealth for Bruce Wayne. With his technology and resources, Bruce Wayne has created the Watchtower for the Justice League. With this, Wayne Tech has more in common with the Star Trek technology than the fantasy Enterprise Space Armor concept for Iron Man…

What if Bruce Wayne used The Bleeding Edge Armor concept for himself? How convenient it would be for Bruce Wayne to shift into his batsuit like Tony Stark, Black Panther and even Superman. Tony Stark’s R.T Tech has enhanced his body, making Tony superhuman. This would also be a great addition to Bruce if he were to use it help aid him as Batman. But ask yourself this: has the batsuit become similar to the Iron Man armors with the Batwing Armor? Isn’t Wayne’s tech not too far from Tony’s potential?

In cinema, both characters made big production in sales, with Batman in the lead. This is because Batman has been on the movie screen since 1989. Fans prefer the Christian Bale Batman over the others mainly because of the vision from Christopher Nolan. Was Robert Downey Jr an excellent choice for Iron Man? How exciting would it be to have a live action sequence of these two characters at their full potential…. 

In the film Avenger: Infinity War, was the Russo Brothers paying homage to Batman vs Ironman in the battle scene with Thanos on Titan with the flocking bats? Both Iron Man and Batman have experienced greater power in their own universes with the Infinity Gauntlet and the Lantern Power Rings. As powerful as the Infinity Gauntlet is, would the combination of the white, green, yellow and black power ring be enough for Batman to take on Iron Man? With the use of universal power, who do you think is the best wielder of cosmic power as a mortal? In battle without costume or gadgets and it’s just man to man; Bruce Wayne walks away with win. With the suits and gadgets, the win would still go to Batman. Which side do you pick? Comic Multiverse fan favorite artwork of Iron Man vs Batman goes to the DeviantArt artist DeemonProductions!

What if… Tony Stark‘s technology crossed into the Star Trek Universe?! The advanced technology of Star Trek would be wonders for Tony Stark. He could develop his armors even further equipping them with stellar navigation or even combine Star Fleet’s warp core technology with his arc reactor tech. With this, the Stark armor could survive deep space and even achieve warp speeds. This would allow Iron Man to travel alongside the likes of Silver Surfer or Green Lantern with ease.Tony Stark could supply the Federation with the blueprint plans for advanced armored suits. The Federation could use Tony’s armors for planetary exploration or a non-detectable advantage over enemies in war. Would you agree that if such armored suits were created for the Federation, the space jump in the 2009– and 2013-Star Trek films be much cooler? Let’s imagine…

Not only could Tony Stark use the Star Fleet’s technology for his armored suits, but he could also enhance S.H.I.E.L.D. For example, The Helicarrier  could be equipped much like the USS Enterprise. The Helicarrier could run on anti-matter propulsion engines, equipped with transporters on board, deflector shields and advanced weaponry. Both universes could benefit each other greatly with Tony Stark’s brilliance. Could you imagine such technology crossed over between the two universes, how they can go hand in hand with one another?

There are many portraits and video conveying the huge debate on who would win in a battle between Goku and Superman. There is good reason to match these characters up because of their similarities, but their huge differences determine the winner. Both characters arrive on Earth as babies, survivors of an extinct race, have powers that rival their companions and considered great leaders, to all heroes and Earth citizens alike.

Superman is a kryptonian, whose powers can only manifest in the presence of a yellow sun. Super speed, flight, x-ray and heat vision to name a few. On Krypton, superpowers cannot manifest because of the red sun which the planet orbits, leaving the Kryptonian race as normal beings. Superman spent most of his younger years living and molding to human way of life while adjusting to his Kryptonian powers. Superman later learned combat training from when becoming a hero for Earth. Over the years, Superman’s powers have developed greatly, for instance, leaping tall building in a single bound to flying around the sun at close proximity without being harmed.

Goku is a saiyan from Planet Vegeta. Goku has been trained in the martial artist his entire life. This gives him the advantage of an organized fighter. Training in the arts allowed Goku to learn Ki manipulation, an ability which grants the user flight, super speed, and destructive energy attacks strong enough to destroy planets and solar systems. With the heritage of the saiyans, Goku can transform his physiology into a stronger and faster forms. His latest form is Ultra Instinct, a form that can’t be accessed easily, only in the threat of immediate danger with no defense….

Goku’s fight experience and constant training would ultimately bring this battle to his advantage each time. Since both characters are heroes and leaders of super teams, Goku and Superman wouldn’t present much of a battle, but more of a test among each other. What if…. Goku trained Superman inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, teaching him to discover and control his Ki? This would be an addition to his Kryptonian powers. Just imagine what Superman could learn from Goku….

Based upon what we have seen in their TV series, who do you think will be the victor in such a battle?

The Asgardian Frost Giant Prince vs The Ruler of Latveria is a topic of speculation among comic fans. These two villains are matched up because both characters have the desire to obtain rulership of Asgard and the power it contains. Dr. Doom is a genius mortal who can outwit and obtain powers from cosmic beings or sources. Loki is a lower-level god who is only successful in dominating beings who are mentally and physically weaker than himself. In this case, the bridge between Loki and Dr. Doom is relatively small….

Dr. Doom’s greatest power is his mind. Since his youth, he desired to acquire knowledge and power for himself, and he succeeded. Dr. Doom is considered to be one of the most powerful minds in the Marvel Universe. As such, he can create any device needed to give himself the upper hand in any situation, even to rival the technical genius of Batman, Iron Man and Reed Richards. Throughout the comics, Dr. Doom’s taste for power has been taken to extraordinary heights: becoming wielder of the Infinity Gauntlet and taking on cosmos powers such as Galactus and Silver Surfer. Dr. Doom’s downfall lies with attaining too much power. His arrogance blinds him creating more setbacks than accomplishments.  Loki is also known to have a genius level intellect as well as being a master sorcerer in his realm of Asgard. Since Loki is of Asgard and The Frost Giants, he is physically superior to Dr. Doom. Loki has a desire to acquire more power like Dr. Doom, but his child like manner wouldn’t allow him to have a defined purpose for his power other than challenging his half-brother Thor. This results in his defeat and punishment by his father Odin. Loki’s arrogance as a higher being blinds the fact that mere mortals could beat him at his own game every time.

In this battle, Loki is more than likely to underestimate the power of Dr. Doom because he is mortal. Dr. Doom is a strategist and mentally would dominate Loki. If need be, could take over the body Loki, if physically beaten. With the battle history of the two villains, you would likely find a DoomBot in battle than the real Doom. Loki more than likely control a being such as the Destroyer to fight the battle for him or even the Hulk. Who do you think would win in such a battle?

What if…….Atrocitus was able to recruit the Dark Phoenix to his Red Lantern Corps?! The Phoenix Force is an entity described as the child of the universe, free-spirited and dangerous if not properly controlled or guided on the right path. With this power, Atrocitus believes could be on the same power levels as the White and Black Lantern Corps…Using his immense power, Atrocitus created a dimensional portal and entered the Marvel Universe right after Dark Phoenix consumed a star. The destruction fascinated Atrocitus, leaving the feeling that such power could empower his Lantern Corps greatly. Atrocitus intercepted the Dark Phoenix in space flight before the nearby Shi’ar flagship who also witnessed the destruction could retaliate. Using his power ring, Atrocitus opens a gateway to the Red Power Battery on Ysmault. He signals the release of The Butcher from the central battery. The Butcher comes through the portal confronting the Phoenix Force. The two entities clash in a cosmic spectacle, learning and adapting to one another.

As the two entities dance in a cosmic showcase, Dark Phoenix hovers in space, waiting for the Phoenix Force to return to her. Atrocitus used this time to slip the Red Power Ring onto Jean’s finger, sealing the bond between the two entities. Red electric fire erupted outward in all directions as the transformation to the Red Lantern Corps began. During this time, The Phoenix Force began to fuse with The Butcher entity as well. Atrocitus believed if he couldn’t get direct control over the Phoenix Force, he could at least have control over its host.

As the Phoenix Force was being molded with The Butcher, it had a sense of bondage and lashed wildly like a caged animal. Anger and rage began to grow rapidly within the Phoenix Force as it struggled. Once the merger was complete, the energy given off was so tremendous, its power funneled down to each power ring of the Red Lantern Corps. Members of the Red Lantern Corps no longer had the weakness of blind rage, now that it was consumed by the Phoenix Force. In exchange, each member developed mental clarity strong enough to create the most powerful constructs among all the other Lantern Corps. The Phoenix Force grants members immortality and as long as the Phoenix Force remains confined in the Red Power Battery, the power rings stay charged indefinitely.

When realizing that rage is just one of many emotions of the Spectrum, The Phoenix Force gained a curiosity for the other Lantern Corps and secretly vowed to conquer them all. With the power of two cosmic entities and the Sith Lords, can the Red Lantern Corps be stopped in their quest for universal and dimensional conquest?

Thor vs Superman is a classic battle that has happened in the comic book JLA/Avengers, which is disappointing to fans. Thor’s hammer Mjolnir is a powerful enchanted weapon giving Thor additional powers like the manipulation of the fundamental forces of the universes. How is it possible for Superman to wield it? Could becoming an officer to the most powerful Lantern Corps (White and Black) and team leader to the Justice League make him worthy of wielding Mjolnir? This is disappointing to fans because one of Superman’s main weaknesses is vulnerability to magic. Superman barely survived a kryptonite bullet from Metallo, and a fight with Doomsday. So how would he survive the blows from Thor’s mighty hammer? Since Thor is a god, he can match Superman’s strength and speed any day. If Thor gets enraged, he enters Warriors’ Madness. In this state Thor’s power increase tenfold, making him mentally uncontrollable, attacking friends and foes alike resulting in devastation. Warrior’s Madness is similar to Wolverine‘s Berserker Rage and a saiyan’s Oozaru form, all increasing the power of the character tenfold.

Superman’s powers would need super charging from the yellow sun to battle Thor and to withstand Mjolnir. But what if Superman used his new costume Captain Marvel developed in the Mortal Kombat vs DC Comics storyline to battle Thor? With magic eliminated from this battle, would this make Superman on even terms with Thor? More than likely. Superman is no stranger to fighting godlike beings such as Darkseid.

Without that concept Thor would come out as the champion in this fight, due to his magical abilities. Who do you believe is the real victor of this bout?

Superman vs The Hulk is among one of the most popular comic crossover battles of all time. It’s common to find that this fight is based on favoritism instead of the physical facts, facts which determines the winner. Primarily, both character could be evenly matched when it comes to strength, durability and longevity to a certain degree. Both characters have evolved in power since their origins, but who is really the strongest?

Superman has greater speed than The Hulk, along with his additional powers of flight, heat vision and super breath. These powers are manifested by Superman’s cells absorbing yellow sunlight. If Superman were to take this battle into the air or space, the battle would be in favor to Superman. The Hulk’s momentum can only produce results if he is grounded. Superman is vulnerable to kryptonite and magic but in this fight, neither would be available at The Hulk’s disposal.

The Hulk’s strength is produced through his uncontrollable rage, which is due to Bruce Banner exposure to gamma radiation. The more he gets angry the stronger he becomes. Despite not being able to fly, have x-ray or heat vision, the Hulk’s adaptable durability allows him to withstand the abilities that Superman may use against him. Superman’s super speed and strength combined would throw Hulk in a blind rage, for fighting a strong and quicker opponent would frustrate and anger him. The Hulk is most vulnerable when he is in the state of Bruce Banner, where Superman and Clark Kent are one in the same….

Over the years, both characters have evolved to different levels of power which respectfully makes both characters the top of their class in the Marvel and DC Universe. When heroes battle each other, it’s a test of strength and honor not winner or loser in most cases. Since this crossover battle is so popular among comic fans, how come Marvel and DC haven’t created a film adaptation of the comic? Until that time and thanks to Michael Habjan, comic fans can get an excellent perspective of how such a battle could happen….

Image Comics crossover series: Batman and Spawn is a story where the two dark characters battle it out for a brief time before uniting and fighting against the forces of evil. In this fight between Spawn and Batman, the victor would be Spawn. Even though Batman would dominate in hand-to-hand combat, Spawn would have the edge because of his supernatural abilities. His cape alone would halt any sneak attack from Batman, even killing him. Using the shadows or gadgets for deception against Spawn would be useless. But what if Batman kept the Yellow Power Ring? Batman could become the greatest yellow lantern next to Sinestro, or even replace him as leader of the Sinestro Corps. With the mastery of the Yellow Power Ring, Batman would have the chance to dominate Spawn. The yellow power ring is ultimately powered from a cosmic entity versus supernatural powers from Hell’s dimension.

Spawn’s armor works similarly to a Lantern Ring in the effect that he could shape shift his armor with his thoughts. Since Spawn is among the undead, how powerful do you think he could become if he joined the Black Lantern Corps? This could amplify his powers to unmeasurable levels, not only from the ring but because Spawn’s armor would constantly feed from the darkness and evil that the Black Lantern Corps gives off. In the comic storyline, Spawn freed his soul, and his armor took on an angelic form. Could this mean Spawn also become recruited into the White Lantern Corps like Batman? What levels of power would Spawn reach then?Heroes will battle each other, only to discover strengths and weaknesses between them. Eventually heroes join together to serve a bigger purpose than their battle. Just imagine if a crossover film were produced with the Sinestro Corps Batman and Spawn. This would excite comic fans visually when seeing Batman wield powers with a supernatural being as his partner.

Since Batman rejected the Yellow Power Ring, do you think Nightwing would refuse such power? Even the game Injustice is inspired by such idea. Dick Grayson may have a liking in using the ring than his mentor. On some occasions, Batman had chances to be among the superpowered, but it always resulted in him remaining his normal self.

Superman vs Batman has always been a hot topic among comic fans for a long time. Because of their popularity, both characters are involved with many crossover battles against foes with similar abilities. Since Batman and Superman are both heroes, a continual battle between the two characters could not exist. Seemingly enough, the only reason for confrontation between Batman and Superman is for dominate leadership over what it means to be a hero.

Many fans favor Batman because of his dedication to his crime fighting career. Bruce’s determination on becoming the greatest crime fighter he can be, pushed him beyond his physical limits. Wayne’s technology and resources also gives Batman an advantage over Superman / Clark Kent. Batman’s mastery of fear allows him to take on opponents more powerful than himself even if it means certain death. Superman has even considered Batman to be the world’s most dangerous man…Superman is also a favorite among comic fans because he is one of the most powerful characters in DC Comics history. His superpowers allow him to take on most opponents with little effort. Flight, super speed, invulnerability, longevity, prominent abilities anyone would love to have. Even though Superman is an alien from another world, his values and morals are that of a good human on Earth. Such great values and morals motivate Superman to use his powers for the good of the people. His normal persona as Clark Kent allows him to live a life as a reporter, keeping him grounded to world issues, thus helping him become a better world hero.Batman and Superman have many publications where they would battle. Finally, the two characters are featured in the same, live action film: Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice. This is Zack Synder‘s take on the battle between the two icons. Who do you think would ultimately win between Superman and Batman?
