THIS WEEK'S EVENT

The Batman
Re
Real Name: Bruce Wayne
First Appearance: Detective Comics #27 (May 1939)
Team: DC Universe
Arch-Nemesis: The Joker
Bio:
Bruce Wayne was a pampered rich child. At least before his parents lives where stolen before his very eyes. Wayne grew up obsessed with taking down the vast criminal underworld that ruled Gotham City. Having spent years of his life training under many different masters worldwide, Bruce Wayne (now feared as THE BATMAN) might just be the best fighter in the DC Universe. Batman's body is a the peak of physical strength. Not only can Batman hold a fight with super-powered beings, but his vast wealth allows him nearly any gadget, armour or vehicle he could possibly ask for. Batman is also incredibly intelligent and tactful. Batman can think his way in and out of most situations. Batman is the leader of the post-Flashpoint Justice League.

Captain America

Real Name: Steve Rogers
First Appearance: Captain America #1 (March 1941)
Team: Marvel Comics
Arch-Nemesis: Red Skull
Bio:

Leader of the present day Avengers, CAPTAIN AMERICA is the ultimate soldier. After a WII super soldier experiment, Steve Rogers body was at the peak of it's strength, speed, healing and reflexes (though he was no actual super powers). Captain America also knows some martial arts and is known for his iconic and indestructible shield. Captain America sometimes carries a gun. CA is a master schemer and tactician as well. The super soldier serum that courses through is veins slows down his aging to some degree. His moral code and patriotism make Captain America the perfect American.

Who will win this battle? Let me know in the comments below! The results should be posted on Friday.


Next week I'll post the results for every CB for the first half of 2014 in a round-up article. Round 2 will begin in either July or August.

Really, really doubt these two would ever fight in a million years. But if they did, Bruce would sucker-punch Steve with something unexpectedly overpowering and win.

Really? Really? Is this even FAIR?

Bruce is more apt to fight dirty so he would most likely win but if h=it were a fair fight with no weapons Cap would kick his arse

I am sorry but dirty trick are you guys kidding me Cap fights with villains all the time he is use to all the dirty tricks in the books. You guys are acting like Batman would go up to him and say "Hey Cap lets be friends and shake on it." with Cap just going to shake his hand and Batman knocking him out. Personally I would take Cap in this fight. The enhanced strength, agility, and reflexes combined with his fighting prowess and his shield I feel he would win the fight more times then lose. Still it would be a great fight and it would be close one at that.

Batman, though it'd be a long and hard battle.

Cap is gullibke and believes people are good. Batman knows the truth so he could easily trick Steve but any other time Cap wins

ill give Cap the significant upper hand in endurance. Thats about it though, they are comparable in strength and agility and Batman is the superior martial artist, he also has the superior weaponry. The longer this fight goes the more it would favour Cap but i think Batman could pull out an immobilization early or out match Steve martially quick enough to win this fight 5/10 time, you and I have fought over this one a lot Loudy and neither will change his stance on it. Im a firm believer in Batman's ability to win this fight.

Batman wins this. He's taken on Croc and Bane, I think he can take down a dude in a spangly-leotard.

If batman can beat Deathstroke then he can beat Captain America, as Deathstroke is pretty much captain america with more skills

Cap would beat the [frick]ing piss out of him.

DS only wins because the writers need t keep it interesting.


Slade is as overrated as Wolverine is IMO.

Cap beats Batman

Cap beats Deathstroke too...
HulkOnion
HulkOnion - 6/24/2014, 8:08 AM
What i mean by them being overrated... just take a look at CBM fight club..

Both Wolvie and Slade are supposedly so badass and cool and they can beat anyone...

Yet when pitted against someone slited with more power or ability they always lose...


BUT... thats not really the battle im supposed to be talking about... so im done.

This fight comes up time and time again in CBM fightclub. There are those who align themselves to either camp. The thing is when you look at it objectively, Jackmamma showed it the best. Deathstroke is the closest equivalent to Captain America in the DCU and he's beaten Batman time and time again. Cap is Deathstroke with two good eyes and a nigh invincible shield. Cap wins this.

Steve is the peak of human ability. I don't understand how this is a debate. Cap, all day every day.

pesmerga44 - 6/24/2014, 1:48 PM
Really to anyone this should not be a clear cut easy win. Even though I choose Cap to win this fight I can easily see Batman winning the fight but if you make this a best out of 10 fights I think Cap would win 6 out of 10 times. These would be close fights pushing both fighters to their limits but in the end I would put my money on Cap.

relentless1 - 6/24/2014, 6:40 PM
everytime Cap and Bats have squared off they've been dead even, i know one of you is going to retort that crossovers don't count but I beg to differ, they are the ONLY thing that we have to go off of actually and i agree that they'd win half and half with Cap having the advantage in stamina and speed and Bats having the advantage in skill and weaponry
jojofmd
jojofmd - 6/24/2014, 7:03 PM
^Cap has an indestructible shield and any SHIELD tech at his disposable, How does Bats have an advantage in weaponry? That statement is ridiculous and completely unproven. In one of the cross overs Bats even admits Cap would win.
relentless1
relentless1 - 6/24/2014, 9:38 PM
@ jack; Batman has mastered all 127 forms of martial arts how isn't he more skilled then rogers and @ Jojo u can't say he's got SHIELD tech because thats not part of his individual character, thats like saying Batman can use kryptonian tech just because he's buddies with Superman, I'm sure he could but he doesn't have access to it constantly, its not apart of his standard equipment.
relentless1
relentless1 - 6/24/2014, 9:38 PM
and Batman says that its conceivable that cap could eventually win that battle, doesn't say its a foregone conclusion
relentless1
relentless1 - 6/25/2014, 1:50 AM
Batman is said to have photographic memory as well, he is also peak human when it comes to utilizing his brain as well as his body, if you read his bio he is said to have mastered full body control at the age of 12, so the right genetics and the proper motivation has turned him into the best that a human can be in the DCU..without enhancements of course; they even touched on another Batman having to have Bruces specific genetics in the JLU episode explaining Terry McGinnis' real parentage
relentless1
relentless1 - 6/25/2014, 10:27 AM
yeah thats my same issue with Cap too, he didn't work for what he's got, which is why he's less skilled than Batman, which gives Batman the edge in skill which IMO can cancel out the enhanced stamina
HulkOnion
HulkOnion - 6/26/2014, 7:02 AM
Guys, cap is a WWII vet, and has beaten the hulk, is worthy of thor's hammer, and did i also mention that most Batman villians are just plain old crazy guys, and yet somehow Batman gets outsmarted everytime? BATMAN IS OVERRATED, accept it.
