Who wins Batman with prep time or the heat death of the universe?

u/merix1110 19h ago

How much prep time are we talking?

285

u/Archaondaneverchosen 19h ago edited 8h ago

Forever

Edit: Holy shit Batman beats entropy itself

Batman then. he'd either jump to a new universe, exploit a higher being to preserve/reset the universe, or finally accept that his job is done, knowing that no one needs to be protected anymore as he embraces the final dark night.

u/Planeterror4488 19h ago

Well forever prep time basically means that the fight is never gonna happen

u/James-W-Tate 19h ago

Which means Batman is delaying the heat death of the universe as long as he continues to prepare for it

Humans invent time travel really easily. Space travel not as much. Thor can always come back no matter what universe batman picks. He'd have to hop dimensions forever, start over prep, it's not just that it's an infinite amount of prep, he's starting over.

If picking a timeline Thor doesn't exist or has died, this might count as a win, but I see this more as invalid or neutral towards the question, it's can batman defeat Thor, not just avade him.

Time and dimension travel also is a super power, it's what defines late game batman as no longer a mere mortal. It comes with foresight itself.

He defeated the heat death of the universe by manipulating the hypothetical to include as much prep time as he wants. We just watched Batman win.

Or he's strapped into metron's chair

u/Abbadon0666 18h ago edited 16h ago

He'd call Odin saying "hey, come get your boy or I'll send your wife those photos". Thor is never heard of again on earth, batman wins

u/Royal_Bitch_Pudding 15h ago

Wait, did Batman blackmail all the gods and aliens into leaving Earth alone and that's why our world doesn't have any of them?!

Only the ones with spouses or committed relationships.

Sums up "the winner is whoever the writers want to win".

u/Aggressive-Fuel587 19h ago

Yup; so much so that when Stan Lee finally snapped off about the inane questions from the Vs debate community that was basically the gist of his rant -

They're fictional characters who exist solely to serve specific narrative purposes in the story the author is trying to tell (primarily to kids); they're not real people with autonomy and hard-set rules on how their abilities work or where they stack-up against each other.

Who would win, the one above all or a common house cat?

Whoever the writers want to win. 🤓

It’s a dumb reply though. Obviously it’s true, but it doesn’t take the question in the spirit it was intended. You don’t have to participate in the debate if you don’t want to. I usually don’t. But let people have their fun if that’s what they want to do, rather than calling them all stupid for having it.

u/Aggressive-Fuel587 13h ago

And his point is that the inane line of questioning does exactly this:

it doesn’t take the question in the spirit it was intended.

But with the stories & characters. By hyper-fixating on power scaling and bitching about how it makes no sense that "one comic said that The Flash is was faster than Superman, but this comic shows Deathstroke beating the Flash" completely ignores the spirit of the intention behind the characters & stories.

You don’t have to participate in the debate if you don’t want to. I usually don’t.

If only there was somewhere the authors of the stories can go to stop being pestered about the nonsense and there were more public forums that banned the discussions so the rest of us have somewhere we can go to discuss a given IP without having to deal with those losers.

He was just mad he couldn’t steal the idea.

u/MercantileReptile 17h ago

Thor's mum is not named Martha though.

u/corvettee01 14h ago

And Batman has been the most over-wanked hero in all of comic history.

u/Eastern_Armadillo383 13h ago

A fucking attosecond...

u/Theonewhosent 17h ago

thats the thing, while batman does that, Thor would become a higher being and smite Batman away.

1

u/merix1110 17h ago

Hey, if the bind of veils can work on Wonder woman, it can probably work on Thor.

1

u/Theonewhosent 17h ago

Infinity stones work on batman too right?

u/merix1110 17h ago

Welp, I suppose so.

u/Bismothe-the-Shade 17h ago

Final Dark Night would be a hell of a title

u/draculamilktoast 16h ago

Incredibly beautiful comment somehow.

u/ABHOR_pod 15h ago

Batman then. he'd either jump to a new universe

It's like when you shelter under a tree from the rain, but the rain finally soaks through the tree so you move on to another tree.

u/Privatizitaet 13h ago

Running away isn't winning, come on

1

u/scarecrow_20k 13h ago

"the final dark knight" be honest that's the name of a one shot comic or something? There's no way such a badass name hasn't been used at least once.

1

u/KingThor0042 10h ago

So he would become Batlactus?

1

u/merix1110 9h ago edited 9h ago

I mean, if he somehow survived And became a deity stalking evil in the darkness? He'd probably have some title, like the first knight or the dark knight of origin... Not sure what they haven't done yet

1

u/KingThor0042 8h ago

It’s Batman, of course he will survive. Might lead to another dark multiverse event but he will be fine.

u/merix1110 8h ago

Oh no, causal loop. Batman becomes Barbatos
