BECUZ HES THE MF BATMAN!!!!

I don't like the way this is drawn.
SemperFiZero
This two part movie was fantastic.
Svartlebee
Again, Superman had been weakened by a nuke and he didn't want to kill Batman.
SeraRelm
And Miller has no clue how supermans abilities and such work.*
ZackForteBootee
Foolish. Superman lets Bruce win. In the end, the man behind the script decides who wins, not the actual facts.
PookyButt
I imagine that Batman injected Superman with something that made weird tumors come out of his chin
clenling237
What movie is this
Grrrg
"I, plus an exotic substance and also Green Arrow"
RafayAhmed
Oh yeah?! Well in the "Real Captain America: Civil War", cap died!!!
"The shittily written Miller versions" because he has no idea how superman works.
StanielRonathan
Nor Batman for that matter.
TreCool88
Great but what's to stop Superman from getting a respirator mask and coming the next day and pulling Bruce Wayne's spine out of his mouth?
AgamemnonsMemes
Or throwing a rock at him from orbit. Or laser eyes from two blocks away, or super-speed a hand through his chest.. Superman is dumb 1/2
but this is just worse
rarelyaccuratefacts
This artist really likes chins.
yoshi
which episode is this?
It's the animated movie version of Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns.
thank you!
AHornyRhino
Batman wins because Superman doesn't go all out*
CapAFoo
Still wins
judgemasterven
Sure! But it's one of those hollow victories that don't mean much of anything.
Still a win
Kiwiwhovian
And yet Superman is the bigger man for trusting him. Dear oh dear.
DVSBSTrD
Bigger fool, you mean.
Gurablashta
Superman becomes Ronald Reagan's bitch
FillerNameToFillTheBox
Superman: *Doesn't fight seriously, and doesn't want to fight period* Batman: *acts like he actually beat Superman*
Sounds like the batfandom in general.
ReallyGoodBee
To be fair, he did just dose Superman with simulated kryptonite and make it fairly clear he could have killled Superman right there.
Batman is that makeawish kid you see running that touchdown at an NFL game and everyone cheers for him.

The best in my opinion was Batman and Superman world's finest. Kevin Conroy as Batman, Mark Hamill as Joker, BTAS animation.
TopMac2156
My favorite D.C. animated film is under the red hood
scnottaken
Way better than this frank miller batwank. Even liked justice league war better.
icantspellsrry
So tru so tru
AkaWumpus
I mean, you get to be wrong.
Pegussu
Best part was that they balanced things. Batman couldn't defeat the robot tank, Superman whoops it with no effort. Supes can't save Lois 1/2
I thought the best part was they don't make them fight. I'm tired of all the "Imma fite chu", "Naw Imma fite chu firs" "ohno big bad" dance
They had as much fight as they needed to when they figured out each other's secret identities.
Batman figures it out. Joker whoops Lex Luthor, but Lex gets away scot-free while Joker is puddin'. 2/2
jamesx
Everyone always talk about Batman's Prep time... yet everyone forget Superman has entire production line with super advanced alien tech.
ye but sups never actually wanted to hurt him
Porecomesis
Also, by the time you see Superman in the sky, he can very well be already behind you giving you a wedgie.
KingKelloggTheWaffleHaggler
By the time you see him in the sky he could have rearranged your house and put you in bed.
Batman's only saving grace is that Superman doesn't kill. Batman has fought versions of Superman without the morals and only lasted seconds.
SpruceCaboose
People can write whatever they want in a comic. What Superman can't outdo Batman in is being an even remotely interesting character.
Depends on the writers. Well-written Batman is a detective in a bat suit, not the super-genius mega-ninja demigod they have now.
In the same vein, a well-written Superman focuses on the man behind the powers. Instead, writers focus on how hard he can punch.
SomeCrazyNerd
But Superman has never been as intelligent as Batman.
That is actually wrong, Supes is FAR smarter than batman.
Then he does a very poor job using it. He rarely employs equipment or tactics. Batman always does to the maximum utility.
Thats cause Batmans writers do that, some supe writers suck.There are comics that do show how smart they both are..and Flash and MM too
The flash is an extremely capable forensic scientist, also, he moves and thinks faster than it takes light to move across a single molecule.
disinfectantrum
Less necessary. Batman is a scalpel. Superman is a fucking tank. 9/10 times Superman can just hit the problem really hard. Problem solved.
ImHereToExplainTheJoke
I hated it this story in book form, and I hate it in movie form. This is not Batman. This is Howard Roark in a Batman suit, with a healthy-
dose of Miller's ball fondling of Batman. How anyone considered him a good writer for Batman, I'll never know.
How incompetent and insane he is became a lot more apparent when he was given All Star Batman.
Remember when he decided Batman could beat GL but covering himself and Robin in yellow paint? Good times.
While drinking lemonade. Then he shanked Hal's throat with broken glass because Robin sucker punched him in the neck....god dammit Frank.
All Star Batman gave us some good memes, but man was it a steaming pile of shit.
The real superman v batman....superman:aaachoo batman:dead....the end
Like it would even get to the actual sneeze part.
idontenglishsorry
i was gonna comment something explaining why batman defetead him in this movie but i found myself very salty about your comment, and I 1/2
realized, i am kind of a batman fangirl
erischilde
It's almost like he has a pouch on his bat-belt marked "deus ex machina".
Osarphi
Yep, from the same supermarket where superman code his genetics. It was called "comics writer do what they want', or something like that...
Hehe. Every hero by now has been the "most powerful in the universe" and died 6 times. Hurts my head a little. Do we still love the Hulk?
Yes!!!! Hulk smash
I watched the animated D.C. Films before the live action ones, have to say I'm disappointed in the new ones.
DoublevBomb
Live action ones -
shonasof
Pretty much EVERYONE is disappointed in the new live action films.
There are two main producers for DC Animated Films, Bruce Timm and James Tucker. Bruce Timm did all the good stuff like Under The Red Hood,
and Dark Knight Returns. James Tucker did all the god-awful shit like Throne of Atlantis and Justice League vs Teen Titans.
Epinephilim
The animated films follow the source much closer. I think it's for the best.
choakid999
Which film is this?
BloodyCrowOfCainhurst
The Dark Knight part 2. The sorcr material also inspired Batman V Superman
SomeGuyFromTheMostIsolatedishCityOnEarth
Yeah when I saw the first pictures of Ben Affleck in the batman suit I was like oh this gon be good! Live action return of the batman...NOPE
StealthyOctopus
Well they used to. Now they either add bad and unnecessary material or combine multiple stories alternate versions of universes.
I see you've seen the Killing Joke as well. Guess it can't be helped. Also, I recommend Batman and Hatley Quinn, one of the new DC animated-
-films if you liked the animated series.
(4/4) The Man Who Laughs.
(3) into an anthology. Just with 3 or 4 longer stories. Maybe another could be A Serious House On Serious Earth and another could be
(2) By the way I always felt like the best way to get around Killing Joke's run time if it entirely went by the comic would be to turn it
(1) I've heard good and bad things about that one. I'm probably going to see either regardless just because of the DCAU style.
apexpancake
This moment was AWESOME
FrankyBabes
I feel like I've read this in comic form, am I talking out of my arse?
I still dont fucking know why they didnt use this exact ending in the movie, i mean, cmon man how can you change this ending?
thisaccountisnotentirelyjustforsmut
It *is a classic.
BruceBannersButtplug
In Batman vs Superman?
OriginalPosetr
Because this ending requires a history of friendship between Batman and Superman, while the movie had no such thing?
RevanTheJedi
Oh, so did they reverse the situation, like the reactor scene in one of the new star treks?
Fyba
No, Bruce is about to kill him when he mutters Martha, (both their moms names) and then decides to team up to fight lex luthor.
No, I meant that the scene in the post ends with Bruce "dying" and superman hearing his heartbeat, and in the movie it's hinted in a 1/2
Aquilarden
They put in elements from The Death of Superman, in which Superman "dies" after his fight with Doomsday.
similar way that superman survived 2/2
colopctech
why did he call out his heart?
Ravenbreaker

Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer heart attack! Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer Cardiac!

He didn’t want to fight him. Bruce could die from a heart attack.
Jetda
batman staged a heart attack so superman would think he was dead after the fight.
Quebeker
it almost worked...
EastCookie22
bicpics
Cuz Bruce didn't drop the Martha bomb....
Solonoid
At the end of the fight Batman dies of a heart attack.
Which says a ton about the character of Supes. Bman could murder him right now, and Supes is more worried about him.
aleister94
Batman had a weak heart here and superman could hear it and knew he was dying
just4thelolz
Also his heart is huge! But that's to be expected from an athlete like Batman.
losboccacc
batman was faking his own death. he was on a schedule.
wererat2000
Faking his death through a very real heart attack that could have killed him. Batman don't fuck around with his plans.
jessenator
Read the series The Dark Knight Returns. It's my #2 best Batman pick, and great writing.
That was a waste of key presses.

SirNames
Batman is old and dying. AND HE STILL KICKS SUPES ASS!
LaronX
eh i never felt this was a win. that's like giving Batman a neurotoxin. Sure you out smarted him, but since when is that a win vs superman.
PmMeGifsForSauce
With help, gadgets, supe's mercy, then in the end supes heard his heart beat and said fuck it.
DamianWinters
Its easy to kick someones ass when they won't fight back against you.
beejep
He did something to trick Superman into thinking he was going to have a heart attack. Think he then fakes his death?
dlichly
Yes. Though supes finds out at his funeral
raknor88
Yup. He hears a very faint heart beat, but Supes pretends like he didn't.
TheWonderfulWizardOfOs
Because he was told not to interfere
Jest3r123
Recruits green arrow whose arm superman supposedly ripped off to help him train gangs to protect Gotham.
hakaisha89
It's more the fact that superman did not fight back at all. But yeah, sure, go with the mary sue batman too.
potshot
It's a cool situation where Batman brings Superman down to a mortal level, but the way he rubs it in ruins it. Yeah, there's one moment (1)
You could have killed Superman, but Superman could have killed you literally any time in the past 30years...(2)
And you only reach that moment because Supes refuses to actually hurt you for realsies.
I swear no one read it T_T supes was not even trying.
He would rather be killed then actually hurt batman.
Pretty much, Clark is kinda weird that way
