I mean, yeah. Like ninety percent of Batman’s rogues gallery are just mob bosses with a gimmick. He’s a street level superhero, that’s about how much you can reasonably take on when your superpowers are martial arts and money.
I dunno, Iron Man is pretty much just the money part without the martial arts, and he fought Thanos.
Hell, Jason Statham was just an activist and singlehandedly took on a megalodon and swam unprotected underneath the Mariana's Trench by holding water in his nose. Bats and Stark really have to step it up as far as raw power.
Lol what movie was that? Gonna have to check that out.
Guessing that's The Meg
Lol I actually watched that movie a few days ago because of this comment. He didn't swim underneath the Marianas Trench, but maybe that's in the sequel.
Edit: Just watched the sequel and can confirm he did swim underneath the Marianas Trench by holding water in his nose to avoid being crushed by the pressure.
So its something to do with how tony's parents raised him vs batman being an orphaned billionaire
Orphans lose again
If your technology is good enough, you don't need super powers.
