DC ComicsAlright, we get it, he€™s the goddamn Batman. He can beat the snot out of anyone with enough prep time, techno-wizardry, and the aid of an aging man-servant and a twelve year old. The Dark Knight is a superhero €“ that we know €“ but he is still a mere man who deals with street level thugs. That said, he often finds himself mingling with other villains (and heroes) who are far more than just mere mortals. As a result, he often ends up fighting against people he has no right being in the ring with. From winding Wonder Woman with a kick, to punching Orion in the face, to duking it out with Superman on countless occasions, the Caped Crusader has €“ somehow €“ managed to come out the other side with his cowl intact (most of the time). This list is to recount just such times, when even being the world€™s greatest detective just shouldn€™t cut it €“ but it does. As always, comment below with your thoughts and list any we missed!
