For many, the fight between Superman and Batman was good......but for others it was'nt, in my opinion it was rushed, badly edited and some of the logic behind Batman's motive was a head scratcher, sure he was angry at Superman for the devastation that he left behind, but the fact he had no interest in at least LISTENING to Supes made Batman's character not very diplomatic
I'm just a fan, this is the first article I've written so bare with me.
This is how the fight should've went down, ( in my opinion )
Superman hovers above as he does, then lands, Batman states " well, here I am"! ....this time NO smirking.
Superman looks up at the search light in the sky and looks at Batman before disabling it with his heat vision.
Batman slowly backs away as Supes approuches saying, " I'm not here to fight, i may have been wrong about..."
Thats when he's hit with the sonic blaster, THAT is when Batman smirks, knowing Supes can be hurt or at least rocked.
Supes destroys it as he did, looking slightly annoyed, " LISTEN to me, we dont have time for this, I need your..."
then he's hit with the twin machine guns which he destroys, marches right up to a fast back tracking Batman who's now reaching
for something behind him underneith his cape, Supes grabs him by the chest plate and lifts him up,
" IS THAT IT?? ARE YOU DONE?? " Batman uses a mini sonic blaster aimed at Supes temple which makes him throw him away and
he staggers slightly.
" Not by long shot" Batman states getting up painfully.
" Fine, you dont wanna listen?, I guess I'll have to make you! "
Batman is then flown up and through the building and thrown down hard.
Meanwhile Lois is circling the area in the helicopter watching with binoculours.
"Stay down, If i wanted it, you'd be dead by now!" Supes states,
Batman disapears in a smoke bomb, Supes uses his X-ray vision and realises that lead within the smoke is blocking it,
Supes catches the granade fired from Batman and is hit with the K-smoke,
" W-w what is this??" Supes struggles to say,
" A little something i put together from an emerald that came from your planet, I call it Kryptonite, It affects Kryptonian DNA,
this batch Is'nt enough to kill you......but It'll zap your strength for a while! "
The Batman beats Supes down to the lower floor, " you think your a God to us, how many people died that day? I lost an entire
building with people still in it, including a good friend of mine, "
Batman and Supes are now in a corridor with broken windows and holes in the walls allowing Lois to see more clearly,
" There!... get me in closer," Lois points.
Supes slightly recovers and knocks Batman down the corridor with a punch to the chestplate,
he gets up and slowley approuches Batman, looking angry, " I came to you for HELP, not to FIGHT you, but you don't care do you?
It's all about revenge, I'm sorry about your friend,.... I am, I turned against my own PEOPLE to save this Planet!......but you dont care!"
Supes eyes light up in anger, then Suddenly Lois's voice echoes in his ears, " Clark STOP, I know you can hear me, this isn't you, "
the nearby helicoper can be heard outside so Supes smashes another a big hole revealing Lois hovering in the helicopter,
Batman's suit is now sparking and falling apart, as he tries to get up, " what are you waiting for?....do it! "(watchmen easter egg)
Supes eyes return to normal and gazes back to Batman, " No,.... I had to kill Zod before he could do the same thing, I'm not him!"
" I know,...... I had to be sure! " Batman says breathing heavy!
Supes reaches out a hand to help Batman up, " the media calls you the 'world's greatest detective', Luthor has kidnapped my mother and I need your help to find her"
Batman accepts his hand and gets up, "he's been working with a group of mercenaries, I've been tracking thier leader, where he is? she will be"
Lois rushes up the stairs tells them that the scout ship has been drawing massive energy to it and that Luthor was seen going in,
Batman and Supes look at each other, " you find Luthor, I'll find your Mother,....you have my word!" Batman says.
Lois then holds Clark's cheek...." can i write about this fight?"
Batman and Supes BOTH say..." NO!"
And thats my version, I'm sure others will have thiers, this would've played better than what we witnessed,
I cut the MARTHA scene completely because I CRING each time it comes on.....I hated it!
Thank you for reading
