20 Mind-Blowing Facts Didn't Know About Batman

16. He Single-Handedly Kicked Darkseid's Ass

Darkseid may have once "killed" Batman (he actually ended up being sent back in time in another convoluted story from Grant Morrison), but when the hero paid a visit to Apokalips recently in a special Batsuit, he gave the iconic villain a real beating. The suit was slowly killing Bruce, but it gave him enough of an advantage to level the playing field in what was just a very cool moment. The whole Justice League struggled to take down Darkseid, so seeing Batman - a normal man with no powers - give him a run for his money was a lot of fun and yet another reminder that he's one of the toughest heroes in the DC Universe.
