Re: Who would win: Daredevil or Batman?

I'd say Superman has kept his essential personality a lot more steadily than Batman has over the years.

It might be because of what Supes started out as (a checklist of the everyman who is secretly godlike) rather than what Bats did (1%er who is so rich and smart that he can make himself into someone who is able to fight gods) but I think the progression of multimedia portrayals really capture it best. Batman goes from not a stand out to quirky to kind of an asshole to more and more bland with each new retelling.

Superman... kind of just keeps the bullet points. Much like Spidey does.

Different personalities based on different storyline/time periods seems a lot more entertaining to me than a character who never changes his personality through out the years.

How does Superman "Has these 8 personality traits all the time" have more of a personality than Batman "Different personality traits based on comic/movie/tv series"? Is it just consistency? If so, I wouldn't consider that having a better personality.

Well, as I said to dethtoll, the problem is when a new iteration of Batman comes along and he only has 3 personality traits because the last four got retconned.

Like, Arkham Asylum/City/etc is a really, really good example of this. It's a very distilled essence of Batman, and it winds up really lacking.
