Unsure if he could defeat Batman.

This is actually an ongoing plot in the current run. In an altered state of consciousness, Batman created a failsafe, literally called Failsafe, to kill himself if he ever killed someone else.

When the program sees an article that he killed someone (he didn’t, it was a setup), it releases the robot Failsafe to defeat him. Batman has yet to defeat Failsafe, though he has survived so far against it.

So then he's clearly going to, by the laws of narrative causality.

Could he beat 100 bat-sized men? Or 1 man-sized bat?

[–] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

A man sized bat is one of his recurring enemies, so that part has been solved.

Please tell me hes called Manbat

[–] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

He is.

He either defeats Batman or pulls him over to his side. Usually by invoking their parents.

They're was a run where he's fighting an alternate universe Batman who is actually Thomas Wayne, from a universe where Bruce is the one that gets killed and Martha becomes the joker.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan returning as Thomas Wayne Batman would have been dope asf.
