How Batman Would Defeat Every Spider-Man Villain

There is no single person to have a greater effect on the life of Spider-Man than J. Jonah Jameson. The Daily Bugle publisher has allowed Spidey's alter-ego of Peter Parker to continue to live interdependently in New York City, but did so at the expense of the costumed identity of Spider-Man. Jameson has turned public opinion against the Wall-crawler from the beginning of his career. JJ claims that he distrusts all vigilantes, but he has particular ire for Spider-Man.

It is possible that Batman would completely ignore the loud-mouth Jameson. Historically, Bats would prefer that he be thought of as an urban myth or as some kind of inhuman monster to the criminal community, so it is highly possible that he would just let Jameson rant on while the Dark Knight continued his mission.

Alternately, Bruce might grow tired of the noise and buy the entire paper and the building that houses it. Then, he’d kick Jameson out and promote Robbie Robertson as Editor of the Daily Bugle. It is likely that when Batman discovered that Jameson paid for the creation of several villains and Spider-Slayer robots, he'd would treat him like any other criminal and send him to prison.
