10 Stupid Arguments About Batman That Don't Make Sense

5. He's Nothing Without His Gadgets

That's the one and only reason he kind of sucks as a Justice League member, by the way. But, again, there are those that will say his lack of a traditional, mutation-or-magic-born set of superhero abilities are what should render his membership null and void.

If pushed though, those naysayers can be forced to admit that his gadgets are pretty cool, and probably help him out. But ah, isn't it those gadgets that make him so formidable in the first place? Nary a battle goes down in a Batman comic, movie, TV show or video game without him whipping out any number of wonderful toys, from the shuriken-like Batarangs to Adam West's infamous Shark Repellent Bat-Spray (from a range of Oceanic Repellent Bat Sprays).

Here's the thing: not everyone can throw a Batarang successfully. The Marvel Vs DC event proved that even master assassin Bullseye, who can turn anything into a weapon, isn't much cop with them. At least compared to the master. Batman's gadgets only work when Batman's using them, but Batman works without his gadgets. All that training in ninja skills and martial arts wasn't for nothing.
