    OP? And I don't agree that Batman sucks. He trained himself in the art of Judo, and he fights crime with brains, brawn, tech, and no superpowers.[

    OP as in overpowered as in he is way to powerful to be an interesting character. Batman sucks because he is nowhere near as powerful as other DC characters so when they add him to groups either he gets way more powerful or everone else gets weaker. Besides he use the word bat way to often.

    i agree with your points about superman, he was extremely godmodded, but i disagree about batman. it's the fact that he has no superpowers that makes him awesome. unlike other superheroes, he hasn't been given a great gift that he uses to help people, he helps people because he wants to.

    He does? I haven't heard him say that often on his 90's or current animated series. Yet at least. Well, you're totally right about Supes, but in some of the newer cartoons he takes heavy punishment, especially in the DVD movie Superman-Doomsday. Anyway, Superman, being, you know Superman, has to be god-modded.

    Iam talking about the comic books and I got sick of him years ago when he keeps using bat in his items like "batmobile" "batcave" and " Bat-grenades".

    Well, you're totally right about Supes, but in some of the newer cartoons he takes heavy punishment, especially in the DVD movie Superman-Doomsday.

    Again I am talking about in the comics he has moved planets at times I mean how do you make a fair fight against a guy who travels faster then light can survive nukes and move planets I mean WTF?

    Maybe you should read some of his earlier (I think I spelt that wrong) adventures (if I remember US copyright law correctly in a couple of months time his original appearence loses its copyright status) you will see if is nowhere near as powerful, he couldn't fly hecould just out-run a train he wasn't a strong ect.

    actually, you're right about both those points. but those items have become timeless klassics (besides bat grenade, that's just stupid) the batmobile is a symbol of superheroes, and the batcave is just epic. besides, what else would batman call his gadgets?

    Batmobile I suppose is ok for a name but does he really need a name? Why call it the "batcave" only a few people know its name and he can call his gadgets normal names for them like "grenades" not "bat-grenades" or "armour" and not "bat-suit".

    I am talking about in the comics my other two main complains about him is the fact he has mastered hundreds of skills most of which should on their own take a life-time and yet he is still a normal human, the other one is that even though he has no powers what so ever he can stll help Superman fight enemies Superman can't defeat.

    Oh yes, excellence all around.

    The 90's Spider-Man show is terrible because it has heavy executive meddling.

    What's up with the "Barnyard" hate around here? I like that show. It's not epic win or anything, but it's occasionally funny.
