Black Panther vs Batman
Black Panther and Batman, the brooding geniuses of the Justice League and the Avengers. These two are actually quite similar in many ways, they have a similar skill level as well as similar technology. But if these two were to face each other, how would the battle turn out?? We will look at the facts about both characters, weigh the odds and give my official verdict.
Let's start with Batman, he's everyone's favorite vigilante. He's a tactical genius, world's greatest detective as well as a world class martial artist. Batman's martial arts training is extensive he even claims to be extensively trained in 127 styles of combat, his normal style makes use of about 10 of them. He is also the world's greatest detective and one of the world's greatest tacticians. He is peak for someone of his weight/height/age/build in every category including speed, agility, strength and reflexes. He also uses multiple high tech gadgets that can give him the advantage in a battle.
Now, let's look at Black Panther. He's got a great tactical mind, he's had to protect his nation of Wakanda from all types of threats. He received physical enhancements from the panther god after he ate the herb. He too, has great technology including a suit that absorbs kinetic energy, anti-metal laws and an energy dagger. Black Panther is also a master of the African martial arts and is also extensively trained in multiple other ones.
The breakdown:
After much arguing with myself, I came to the conclusion that neither one is better than the other martially, they have around equal stats and feats when it come to that department. Physically, Panther is more agile, but that's it. Strength wise, Panther even with the enhancements can lift around 1,100 lbs while Batman can lift 1,000 lbs so they are pretty much dead even in that respect. Panther has slightly better technology, Batman's is good but not AS good. While on the other hand, Batman has the superior tactical mind, not by much but still.
The Verdict:
Overall, after much thinking.
I came to the conclusion that Black Panther has better tech and is smarter scientifically, while Batman has had more experience in the field and is better tactically. Physically they are dead even in every respect except agility. Martially, neither one has the advantage. Through and through, this fight would last for hours, days perhaps even weeks. It would go on until one or the other gives up, Panther has been stalemated by Batman-ish opponents (Daredevil) while Batman has fought Panther-ish opponents (Bronze Tiger) to a stand still. This would go on and on, with no clear winner.
The winner:
STALEMATE.
