The Batman


Name: Bruce Wayne
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: 210 lbs
Eyes: Blue
Hair: Black

The best superhero ever alive would have to be Batman! And I'll tell you why he's the best, it's because he doesn't have any powers. For example when he goes up against Bane-a super villain with a chemical called venom that he uses to make him super strong- he may have trouble, but he beats him in the end. But if someone like Superman goes up against Bane, he may not beat him. This is because Batman knows his friends, and his enemies.
If Superman were to ever go bad Batman could be the one who takes him down, which has happened a lot. Batman always has a battle plan on how to beat someone when he fights them. He knows when he fights Superman he might want to have Kryptonite with him. When he fights a Green Lantern he might want to have something yellow or maybe in some cases wood. When he fights the Riddler he might want to cancel his appointments as Bruce Wayne(Batman's true identity) so he can study the clues Riddler leaves behind.

SHORT DESCRIPTION=
Batman's secret identity is Bruce Wayne, a billionaire, industrialist, playboy, and philanthropist. Witnessing the murder of his parents as a child leads him to train himself to the peak of physical and intellectual perfection, don a bat-themed costume, and fight crime. Unlike most superheroes, he does not possess superhuman powers or abilities; he makes use of intellect, detective skills, science and technology, wealth, physical prowess, and intimidation in his war on crime.
POWERS or ABILITIES=
Although Batman does not have any "superpowers," he has elevated himself to near-superhuman status through years of rigorous training. He has incredible willpower which easily exceeds that of any other human, making him able to perform tremendous feats such as: kicking down trees, punching through brick walls, having very acute, almost super-human like senses, and the ability to command his body to stop bleeding when wounded. Batman is also very acrobatic and agile, and can move at speeds that have left people guessing whether he's human or not. He possesses peak human strength/stamina/agility and speed. Batman's also a master of 127 different fighting styles, thus making him one of the world's greatest hand-to-hand combatants. Batman has undergone intense ninja training, and has thus, mastered the arts of stealth, in which he has the effect to be "invisible" to his enemies, deception and theatricality. He is also possibly the world's greatest detective and is a highly skilled tactician, a wonderful scientist and criminologist with a very intelligent mind with supreme logic in which he can think himself out of almost any situation.
VILLAINS=
Batman's villains are usually twisted and sometimes appear to be needy of Batman's attention. They consist of...

the Joker, Catwoman, the Penguin, Two-Face, the Riddler, the Mad Hatter, Scarecrow, and Clayface. Mister Freeze, Killer Moth, Poison Ivy, Man-Bat, and Ra's Al Ghul. Killer Croc, Black Mask, and the Ventriloquist and Bane. Harley Quinn, Hush, David Cain, and Jason Todd as the second Red Hood.

Now there are others that are Batman's foes but these are just the greatest and most popular. His worst enemy would have to be the Joker. One reason is that Joker killed the 2ND Robin(Batman's sidekicks name's are usually Robin) by luring him into a trap and then setting off a bomb that killed him. The Joker is a master criminal with a clown-like appearance. Initially portrayed as a violent sociopath who murders people for his own amusement. Other reasons like killing close people to the Batman also makes him probably the greatest foe Batman has ever had.


WHY IT'S HARD TO BE HIM=
It's definitely hard to be someone like Batman because his true identity is a rich person who owns a huge company. If he were just a regular person that goes out and mows his lawn, has nice neighbors, and goes and buys groceries every Wednesday, no one would really suspect him to be a superhero. But when you're a very rich person like Bruce Wayne you're going to be followed by fans paparazzi and probably loads of other people.
Another reason is that when he has a sidekick like Robin or Batgirl with him when he's prowling the rooftops at night he has to worry about their safety before his. Some of his sidekicks have lives and families of their own and if one of them gets hurt or even killed it might be hard to explain to the parents or guardians of that person why this has happened to them. He knows his limits and how much he can take but while he's doing something dangerous that the sidekick can't do the sidekick might try to do it and die or get hurt. Then Batman would have to go out of his way to save them possibly letting the bad guy go and maybe hurting himself. For example, if he's going underwater and he has to hold his breath for a long time his sidekick might do the same and not be able to go as far as Batman.
This is why it's hard to be Batman.

Batmans good but he couldn't hold his own against Superman. Superman could beat the crap out of Batman before he knew what hit him.

So in other words having a sidekick sucks.
