Poll: Who's Better? Batman Or Wolverine?

[Amadeus Arkham]

Hey guys wanted to see what the good folks here at Comic Book Resources felt was the better character: Batman or Wolverine? I'm going with Batman because IMO he's one of the greatest characters in not just comic books but in fiction. He's up there with Sherlock Holmes and James Bond in terms of being that icon everyone knows and Batman has so many great stories, great rogues gallery, great supporting characters, and his mythology is so vast that I have to go with him.

Let's see what you guys have to say!

I like them both the same but since thats not an option i voted Wolvie. Mostly because it became cool to hate Wolverine because how popular he became in the 90s to early 2000s.

You could literally substitute Batman in there for Wolverine, and still not change a single other word. Remember the DC Animated Universe? Yeah. Exact same time frame.

I dont recall it ever becoming a hip thing to hate Batman though

Batman has more mythology behind him, a whole world and mythos separate from the other DC universe stuff that spins off directly from him with hundreds of characters all with their own stories. Wolverine, despite having that on a smaller scale, is forever tied to the X-Men franchise.

This 100% it was never cool or popular to hate Batman iv known some people not to be big fans or like him all that much but it was never a trend to hate him he's kinda like Spiderman in a way he's allweys had a following and very few haters.

Wolverine it became cool to hate because he was so popular so fast. Yea marvel over saturated him but the character didnt take a dive its just became a cool thing to hate the "Cool" character. Ive always found Wolverine to be a very layered charatcer especialy in his solos amd hes ties with Batman in my top 5 supesheroes

1.Black Panther
2/3 Hulk and superman no real order
4/5 batman and wolverine

Batman. And it's not even close

X-Men stories over Batman stories (mainly because of the Claremont run) but Batman over Wolverine.

Batman has a larger world and is a far more versatile and iconic character, but for actual depth of character and personality, I find Wolverine to be far better defined and more interesting as a person.

To me Batman is the best Superhero of all time. He has everything. A compelling backstory, interesting supporting cast, The best villains in comics. Cool visually interesting locations. Wolverine is in the second tier of popular superheroes to me. These are characters that are popular in their own right but lack a lot of the surrounding elements (iconic supporting cast etc.)

Welp I'm way more an X-Men fan and Marvel fans than DC but I have to vote for Batman there isn't any contest here lmao.

[Comic Book Addict]

Impossible question because I love both. Both were huge parts of my childhood. I have to go with Batman, though.

[oldscottsummers]

Batman got more swag

[MyriVerse]

Well, there is a remote chance that I'll buy something Wolverine-related.
