Ditto. Jedi are like Ninjas on crack. Jedi's kill all, I bet a lightsaber would slice superman in half, and Spidey and Bats wouldn't have half a chance.

shoudn't you guys all be at the calgary comic con. its at the round up center and i think its even today!!

but what do you mean by better?

better superhero?
well that HAS to be superman because his powers are just well more powerful than the other two. (although batman has beat him before but that was in millers TDKR and that is like an alternate future so it doesn't really count in continuity.)
the only knock against supes is that with that much power you should be solving world type problems not fighting against pathetic villians like a crazy rich guy (luthor) or brainiac etc

so i guess in terms of pure power and ability its supes, in terms of use of ability its batman.

sorry spiderman but you don'thave a chance in this one.

better comic book?

very tough question. i would say historically it is spiderman (im assuming that like me you all went into a coma during the clone saga in the mid/late 90s) with spidey you have stan the man practically inventing the human side of comics, then you have the macfarlane days (i know im skipping ahead quite a few years). then you have J. Michael Straczynski who wrote some great stories in recent years.

plus spidy has the best villains gallery in all of comics hands down (venom anyone?) so i think it is spidey. i think his character has a lot more depth. with supes its all well what can't he do he's almost indestructable, batman too much of a recluse, spidey has wit and real life problems

however batman has some of the greatest stories ever told under his belt. ie Frank miller the Dark Knight Returns, anything by loeb & Sale, Kingdom Come (although that was more a superman focused book) however i think the core books are often lacking. all the aforementioned were not really part of the current batman continuity

superman, anyone remember the electric red/blue after his death? nuff said.

Best movie franchise?

Im gonna give this one to spiderman, even though batman begins is the best superhero movie ever. the fact that batman and robin was the worst movie ever made kind of kills the batman franchise.

superman, meh originals were ok but lex lutors plot in superman returns was uber stupid

Who's better as in if i could be one who would i choose?

well mary jane is pretty hot but i think id go for the rich detective with the nice car. no way id wanna be an alien.

i could go on with "better" sub categories but i think that is enough. oh and mary jane is and always be way hotter than lois lane.

In Loeb and Lee's Hush, Batman defeats Superman. As well in Mark Waid's Justice League: Tower of Babel, Batman's contingency plans are used to disarm all of the members of the league.

Go Bats

hmm. interesting. i own the TPB of hush i'll have to give it a re read i don't remember that as for the mark waid justice league i have not read that.

but seriously unless batman knew well ahead of time that supes was comming for him, superman flies so fast that he could just fly by and rip off bruce waynes head in the middle of a business meeting and that would be that. or any number of other things. a flick of the finger to the wind pipe...i could go on.
