How Batman Would Defeat Each Member Of The Justice League

Bet you didn't see this one coming, did you? Unless you have Batman-like prediction abilities, of course, in which case well played.

Perhaps the member of the Justice League Batman is most concerned about having plans to defeat is - strange as it may sound - himself. After all, for any other member of the League he can be there to make sure they're stopped in their tracks one way or another, but if he's brainwashed or goes rogue, there's not really an equivalent of him to do the same.

This is arguably one of the reasons he formed the Justice League, and crucially likely also a reason he has so many sidekicks he trains and then holds at arm's length, despite it being clear he considers them his own children.

As much as Batman makes teams and alliances to take down incoming threats, there's no doubt he recognises he could somehow become one, and so he's trusting them to incapacitate or kill him just as much as he trusts them to take down whatever other big bad comes the team's way.

In short, it's likely Batman doesn't actually have trust issues - he's just very, very aware his closest allies and friends are also the people who he needs to take him down if the time ever calls for it.
