10 Times Batman Outsmarted Everyone

True to the badass name that is 'Rock of Ages', the series sees maybe one of Batman's finest moments yet - as the hero manages to outsmart Metron, who is supposed to be one of the smartest characters in the DC universe due to his '12th level intellect'.

However, the comic proves that a 12th level intellect isn't enough to dodge getting a mean left hook to the face, as Batman manages to convince Metron to drop his invulnerability in order to be able to empathise with the moral heroes. The minute Metron does, Batman knocks him out cold, and then injects him with a hypnotic agent into his bloodstream, meaning the heroes now have him as a somewhat reluctant ally.

Given how much Metron is built up as a New God with powers equatable to Darkseid, having Batman outsmart him is a perfect way to highlight the Dark Knight's intelligence.
