Two of my friends got in an argument about whether Batman belongs in Ravenclaw or Gryffindor.

All superheroes are, by the very nature of their decision to become superheroes, predisposed towards Gryffindor, so IMO you have to control for that and judge them relative to other superheroes to get a good result.

What about villians? Are they predisposed to Slytherin?

ayrt

No. Some villains like Lex Luthor, Norman Osborn, etc, are, but not all of them have Slytherin qualities. For example, the Joker is totally a Ravenclaw, and Doctor Doom is totally a Gryffindor (IMO).

With you on the Joker and Doom. What about Magneto or Bane?

Re: Characters'Hogwarts house

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Magneto is extremely Slytherin IMO. He's the Slytherin-est.

Very agreed on Magneto. DCU or Nolan Bane?

Re: Characters'Hogwarts house

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
Either, I guess. Maybe Slytherin or Hufflepuff?

Slytherin's predisposed to villains. It is a villain training center. It does its level best to transform clueless little eleven-year-olds into villains.

God, the system's stupid.

That's because the system is controlled by rich ultra-conservative ex-Nazi sympathizers who justify their prejudice by the legacy of an old bigot who happened to co-found the school several centuries ago. No wonder it's stupid.

TBH I think a lot of that stuff - not the ex-Nazi stuff, but a lot of the classism and conservatism and background, systemic bigotry being seen as basically acceptable to keep around - you don't have to look at Salazar Slytherin or Voldemort; in a lot of ways, it's just the British public school system, and the British upper classes, the way it was 100 years ago and to some extent has been ever since. Especially as seen by someone who is a bit disillusioned and who has leanings towards socialism. Those elements of the system aren't necessarily particular to the fantastic world created by JKR.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if she was basing her fantasy as satire on reality. She did it quite a bit.

Re: Characters'Hogwarts house

That is a hard one! Bruce Wayne also has quite a few Hufflepuff traits (maybe even more so than Gryffindor ones).

I think Ravenclaw wins out in the end though.

BATMAN? As in, the original Batman, from the comic books? No, man. He's a Slytherin.

Slytherin doesn't necesarily mean "bad". But all he has done is driven by revenge and accomplished by ambitious planning. He's a schemer. Don't let Frank Miller fool you.
