How Batman Would Defeat Each Member Of The Avengers

4. Thor

When it comes to being a bona fide god, there really are no weaknesses whatsoever for someone like Thor.

Here, we're talking about a character who has lived for over a thousand years and has stood up and toppled opponents with unimaginable power. Even on those rare times when Thor has been beaten, the Odinson still manages to eventually dust himself down, refocus and return to fight another day.

In the world of Batman, the World's Greatest Detective has faced the god-like Superman on several occasions, and Bats has usually won out during these confrontations. The thing with Superman, though, is he at least has the weakness of kryptonite.

Beating Thor sounds like an impossible task for Batman. For the Dark Knight, he could play up to Thor's competitive nature and engage him in a never-ending fight simulation, ala the plans Bruce had made for Wonder Woman in The Tower of Babel.

The Insider suit would be another wise choice for Batman here, providing him with the combined powers of the Justice League's heaviest hitters. Likewise, getting hold of a radion bullet would work wonders, with radion having helped bring down Darkseid in the past - and if it's good enough for a New God, chances are it'll do some damage to the God of Thunder.

Another option, of course, is to somehow manipulate Thor to carry out an act that would make him unworthy of wielding Mjolnir.
