New 52 Batman just has better tech and suit. Pre 52 was stronger, faster, better, fighter, and way smarter.
So basically it's a matter of opinion, as these two views are polar opposite except for "smarter" which is agreed upon that P52 Bats has the edge. I also agree hands that P52 Batman has more experience, as P52 Batman was around a lot longer than 5 years. I would disagree that Pre52 Batman was stronger, if anything, he was more realistic in his abilities. It keeps getting brought up that the N52 Batman reps 1,000 pound bench presses, which is quite frankly absurd, but would especially be so for P52 Batman. I've mostly read, and continue to read, P52 Batman. I wasn't so seduced into buying N52 Batman but lately I've been reading some storylines (Zero Year, the Wrath, and the annuals) and I've liked them so far. I'm thinking it's perfectly fine to like both. I just try to keep them as "separate universes, separate interpretations" in my mind as I read them.
