No one knows this better than Terrio, who was hired in the early stages to tweak "Batman v Superman," and who later wrote Snyder's "Justice League." A common criticism of "Batman v Superman Batman will win, it's true he has beaten Superman before, but he knows his weaknesses and knows exactly what to do if Superman goes rogue, Of course Batman might not have any of the same superpowers, but he's a master tactician and has taken on a whole array of super-villains, first, he's taken on the freaking justice league by accident. The web page explores how the comics and movies have shaped the popular image of Superman as a conflicted and bad guy, and how this is influenced by the repeated battles between Batman and Superman. It traces the history of different versions of the two characters in comics, from the 1980s to the present, and how they have influenced each other's stories and roles. In the Batman and Superman Adventures, though they often teamed up, the rivalry remained. Here we have Batman making a list of reasons why he’s better than Superman, and all it says is “I’m Batman”. Batman doesn’t think that Superman’s powers are all that great because he’ll whip up some new weapon in his lab to take him out. Redditor CorruptedEvil commented, "Marvel has done a much better job at marketing all their characters while DC focuses almost exclusively on Batman and Superman" and made a valid observation. Although DC has recently emphasized superheroes like Wonder Woman and Green Lantern, they do not come as close as the number of characters Marvel has Meanwhile, Batman runs around moping with a dark, brooding personality because of something that happened decades ago. Plus, Batman has all this "bat-stuff" and a suit of armor while Spiderman only has webs and just a Spandex suit. If I'm right, then the comics say that Peter Parker is just 15 when he gets his powers. Bruce Wayne's Birthday is before Clark Kent's and Kal-El's in most canon. Batman is also active before Superman makes his debut in most canon. This makes Bruce/Batman older than Clark/Superman a garentee in most canon, but Kal-El possibly "technically" older in a small percent of them depending on how you reckon time. Superman, on the other hand, has continuity, and focuses more on its best villains, Lex Luthor, Brainiac, and Darksied, which I'd argue are stronger villains than anything else in the DCAU. Batman has the best rouges gallery, but Superman's was handled better, because they are a constant imposing threat. Superman TAS is highly underrated. The same reason Flash is faster than Superman, even though Superman is insanely fast. The same reason why if there were somehow a comparison of willpowers, Hal's should be greater. Being the smartest is Batman's thing. Superman is more of a product of its time than most other movies are. Lifelong Batman fan, and love the 89 movie. That said, Donner's Superman is a masterpiece, and still the gold standard for superhero movies, imo. Superman 78 still remains as the best Superman movie ever made, can't say the same for Batman 89.
