DC comics has introduced many heroes and villains since it started to publish comics in 1934. I have only been reading them since I was able to read. My brother introduced them to me and of course to all his favorite heroes. His favorite being Superman, which was the first comic that was introduced by DC comics. Batman was the second hero introduced by DC comics. I believe Batman to be superior to Superman in several ways. This has caused many debates between my brother and I.
Batman has no super powers. All the skills he has have been developed by practice, determination and intellect. He is just a mortal man which is unlike superman who has super powers and always had. Batman uses detective skills, martial arts training and his access to money and technology to become what he is. The fact that he has used what he had access to and used it for good and created a hero out of it is what makes him superior to other heroes. Batman is the only hero that is in the Justice League of America that does not have super powers. This is a huge honor to anyone that fights crime.
Not only has Batman shown himself to be an amazing hero he has also shown himself to be a influential and well known civilian. He is Bruce Wayne and has been able to hide his secret identity. He is very powerful and rich and has managed to stay humble, focused and out of the public eye enough that he has been able to keep his secret identity. Superman also has the claim that he has kept his secret identity a secret however he has not done it as clever or been as influential as Batman in the community.
Batman has also used his hero status to help many others to succeed and accomplish more than they ever thought they could. He has helped changed the lives of other in positive way. Some of these people include Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake and Barbara Gordon. He made all of these people his sidekicks and in doing so he created a greater purpose for them.
Batman has also shown amazing poise in stressful situations. He always uses logic and remains calm. He does not let his emotion control his reactions. This is one reason he is one of the most valuable members of the Justice League of America, he has been able to lead his fellow superheroes when they aren't able to lead themselves. He remains emotionally detached yet logical and strong at all times.
Bruce Wayne/Batman has had many difficult days and challenges but has not let those interfere with the man and the hero he is today.
