So Batman is considered one of the best DC superheroes ever created. We all know that with his detective,fighting,and gadgetry skills, he could defeat any foe of the DC universe {EXCLUDING SUPERMAN IN CONTINUITY}. So my question is, do you think that, given what we know about Batman and his skill set... are there any characters from any media that could over throw the Dark Knight and please explain why.

I already know there is one like this up but I've been looking at most of the posts and I've noticed that some of them are kinda douche-y so I'm adding some RULES to the mix so here they are.

Rules:

• HE MUST WIN THE FIGHT ON HIS OWN... NO OUTSIDE HELP AT ALL... ONE ON ONE... NO OUTSIDE HELP OUTSIDE THE BATCAVE.

• No putting beings like the Anti-moniter, the Abstract Entities of Marvel, ETC; Cosmic entities like the Phoenix Force, Galactus, ETC.

• NO pulling a Adam West Batman and making up gadgets to ensure That Bruce wins... you MUST have a reference of the tool being used in the comic before posting it in or others must verify it. (If you try to bullshit an item up and use several other accounts.... see last rule.)

• Bruce will be in his PRIME.

• PLEASE EXPLAIN IN DEPTH WHY YOU THINK THAT CHARACTER COULD BEAT BRUCE!

• NO being a butt-hurt Batman fanboy/girl and saying Bruce will win because his the Batman..or I will troll you

Did you seriously just say Batman could beat anyone in DC except Superman? Jesus christ

@kamenriderhellhound: Dude edit your post you repeat the same characters threes time

@peppeyhare: Note... that all the comics that Batman beats up Superman are not canon. As such, Bruce has never beaten Superman in a straight fight as in Dark Knight Returns... as ELSEWORLD COMIC! and even then he had to have Green Arrow shoot a Kryptonite arrow to first weaken Supes in the first place. Also refer to this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gjySvkabZI

@lordofthenorth: OOOPS... sorry fixed it.

@kamenriderhellhound: I wasn't saying that batman could beat supes. You saying that he could beat everyone else was the ridiculous part.

@peppeyhare: Can we PLEASE get back to the topic of who you think could beat the shit out of Batman from any media... INCLUDING MANGA!

@kamenriderhellhound: 1. dont no anything about the character

2. Batman's suit for the most part isnt electronic and even than he has many tools that dont run a electrisity. Batman has mastered every fighting style on the planet so he isnt sweating any punches she throws at him. Finaly her power is a problem for about a second one her powers are pretty straight forward and two considering Flash and Superman can both do something similar and batman would have a way to track that sort of thing so Kitty really isnt a challange

Stupid Comicvine i typed out every point and it only puts up the first two oh well i guess i will just narrow it down to one sentence

"Check the battles forums many of these battles have been done to death

Honestly if Flash really wanted to he could kill Batman in less than a second. It would be impossible for Batman to see it coming because he can't react that fast. He's human. Basically anyone with any sort of super speed or teleportation could kill Batman. Other wings he might have a better shot at, but it would be a tough battle.

@kamenriderhellhound: Wonder Woman, flash, green lantern, aquaman, Martian manhunter, about a million other people...

OP makes me laugh
