one has to live with dead parents. train all the time but goes all out. the other has to live with pretty much the whole race of his people dead. and constantly live a life of stepping on eggshells suppressing his strength in fear of breaking the world around him. all things considered I would go with Bats.

 

[Tams]

Neither.

They both suck.

You going to be someone dumb like green lantern or siren.

Super cousin...he is from Kansas.

As a southerner I do agree, that kinship isn't much of a hindrance

 

[Liopleurodon]

Superman, of course.

 

[ExtendEmbraceExtinguish]

Superman. However I want to dress up as Batman to troll Gotham's criminals.

I'm going to tell bane he is weak & I am training harder so what's wrong bane?

 

[RJMacready73]

This is daft tbf, would you rather be a GOD or a mortal is what you're asking people

 

[Daneel Elijah]

I would prefer being Clark Kent over Batman already, Superman powers are just a bonus.

 

[Vlodril]

I'll choose Batman.

He's rich, smart, lives in a pretty sweet mansion and can practically do whatever he wants.

Superman has less going for him outside of his powers.

His parents are alive at least and love him.

Only people that hate themselves would pick Batman but from what I can see we have plenty of those.

 

[Artoris]

Batman because

She is bat shit crazy though

I guess but Superman is really smart too, could be as rich as he wants, and has a fortress of solitude.

It's not like Superman has limited options here…

he can crush coal into diamonds. Probably has a scene in a comic somewhere using his x-ray vision to turn lead into gold. Or he could fly out and grab a mineral rich asteroid. Dude has options

Billionaire borderline psychotic genius or the small town near invulnerable farmboy with the heart of gold...

Bats is just cooler in everyway.

Batman has friends though....one of my most favorite panels in superhero comics....

 

[Madflavor]

Even setting aside the Godlike powers, Clark literally has everything the average guy dreams of. Parents who love him, a steady job, property in a city and a quiet life on a farm, and a woman who wholeheartedly loves him.

Lois alone is worth more than all of Bruce Wayne's assets.

I love Batman, and he's obviously "cooler" than Supes, but he's also a deeply unhappy and disturbed man. Which is part of the appeal, but I wouldn't necessarily want to BE him.

Why would you want to be a guy with a fetish for spandex and latex, hiding his true identity, desperately trying to show the world how good a human being he is for helping people old ladies and animals?
