Batman VS Iron Man DEATH BATTLE! Review

[@Universal_Fro]

As soon as you said all the drawn shots were great my stress just floated away. Holy hell drawing both batman and iron man in there suits was some of the hardiest things I had to do as a perfectionist. SO happy they came out alright. The "Bust this" shot being my favorite to do. Great reviews as always Nemesis.

​@@anafu-sankanashi8933 I'm the lead storyboard artist of DB and part time animator. Every part that is hand drawn in this fight is my style. I upload the fight boards 1 or 2 days after the fight is out for people to see what it's like, and show things that couldn't make it and what not on my Deviant Art DYWTB-Nothing I've been animating for most of this season actually.

For this death battle, as an Iron Man episode it’s pretty good but won’t surpass the masterpiece that is Iron Man vs Lex Luthor. As a Batman episode, not so much considering Batman vs Spider-Man is his best episode but it’s at least better than his fights with Black Panther and Captain America. So yeah it definitely deserves the 7/10, not as bad as some people are saying but by no means is it going to be anyone’s favorite episode. Edit: Also side note, I kind of wished Batman or Iron Man made a reference to the Iron Man vs Lex Luthor fight considering Iron Man kind of destroyed the Batmobile.

[@lynxfresh5214]

Agreed the Batmobile reference was a big miss opportunity further exasperated by the fact it would've been funny to see their A.Is (F.R.I.D.A.Y and Brother Eye) try to out-hack each other while giving backhanded comments to their creators.

As soon as batman figures out tony who makes technology and suits and hacked into the watch tower, he gets the hell bat armor on that can be hacked so he throws him out of the watch tower and hits him with it. bro batmans smart enough to process that, as soon as he got in the hellbat suit he wouldve ripped tony and his suit into pieces so tony doesnt pull anything later.

I'm pissed at the episode oh sure Batman apparently doesn't know what Tony does for a living, I'm sorry Batman wouldn't be that stupid to fall in defeat to nanobots being the world greatest detective, especially since Batman already knows what Tony does for a living like the possibility of creating nanobots given the time Tony asked Batman to join the averagers, just like Superman did with the justice league, both times Batman said I work alone, Cause apparently we all forget Batman used to work alone didn't even want Robin helping him.

Lex Luthor has hacked the hellbat as well, in fact it's the first thing he does upon seeing Bruce in the armor. Removing the trackers that the Justice League had placed in the hellbat unbeknownst to Bruce and improving its software with his own design. Considering that this world is probably the exact same one where Tony defeated Lex Luthor he probably has Lex Luthor's whole database including the specs on the hellbat if we're including that in Lex Luthor's database as he seized it from Lexcorp after Lex died the other thing is it shown that Tony has better hacking prowess than Lex Luthor in their crossover stories, extrapolating from that Tony could hack the hellbat just as well as Lex did.

Alright, I haven't watched the iron man vs batman analysis, but one gripe I always had was how iron man always had the upper hand in the battle, and how batman seemingly doesn't know how to keep control of the battle despite how the analysis portrays batman as this super genius

[@Zitsanrael1117]

The sad part, for me at least, is that Batman vs. Iron Man has the sole biggest issue that can plague any episode for me, it's sheer predictability. Just like Blake vs. Mikasa, as soon as the analysis was over, and even before that (when the episode was announced, let's be real) I already knew who was gonna take the W, and when the outcome is *blatantly* obvious like this I'm immediately pulled out of it, unless that's the actual point of the episode, such as Deadpool vs. The Mask. I will admit that I'm a bigger D.C. guy, and Batman is my favorite hero in all of fiction so I do have a bias. But even so, it doesn't usually bother me when the character I like loses and that is true here too. It's not that Batman lost that bothers me, it's that I had no hope whatsoever that Batman *could* win, and to me at least, that's just incredibly boring. I enjoyed the production, but this is a "one and done" episode for me. One that I will more than likely never rewatch because of the sour taste it left me with upon my first viewing.

[@divine1196]

Agreed and I think they misinterpreted Batman's intelligence like if comic Batman were to fight Iron Man with prep time he wouldn't just throw out he's hellbat suit like that . he's a tactician just a little nit pick but the fact that the Batman vs Cap Death Battle was deleted is sus bc maybe they want to keep his losing streak going

[@Zitsanrael1117]

@@divine1196 Batman vs. Captain America is still up, I just checked. But I do agree with how it seems like they have a stigma against having Batman win, though I will also admit that that may very well just be my bias clouding my eyes. Especially since I will admit that I know very little about Iron Man in comparison. But something I can point to in regards to that stigma is his previous fight with Black Panther. The Hellbat debuted in 2014, so he clearly wouldn't have had it in his fight with Spider-Man since that was way back in the day, but why didn't the DB team give it to him during his fight with Black Panther? The only answer I can come to is that it would make Batman to OP to fight Black Panther. But if they were concerned about one sided thrashings, why would they put Batman up against Iron Man at all? (or Mikasa up against Blake, like I mentioned earlier) I understand there's a balance to strike between these matchups being thematically appropriate vs. them being actual decent fights, and that sometimes that can be a hard balance to strike, but these Batman matchups (minus Captain American ironically) have all felt like they were intentionally skewed against Batman. Spider-Man is super human while Batman isn't and has the perfect counter measure to Batman's *literal* only means of possibly taking him down (the spider sense), Batman has no *standard* means of getting through Black Panther's Vibranium suit, and the DB team just flat out didn't let him use his stronger tools that could (like the Hellbat), and I don't feel like I even need to say anything about Iron Man. I had a gut feeling when this episode was announced that I was gonna come away from it feeling soured, and I was right. Because of all of this Batman is a character that I don't want to ever see in Death Battle again.

They had no mention of Batmans mystical armor, his element x armor he really doesnt have acess to this one and if they were to include it it wouldnt have been fair since element x allows the user to create anything with a thought, and then the final bat suit which is arguably his most powerful suit. But why give tony his godkiller suit which is stronger then the hellbat as correct me if im wrong he uses it to kill celestials and his superior suit at that point if they were going to give him his god killer they should given batman his final suit(which he doesnt always have acess to). Also tony doesnt always have acess to his god killer suit either and im not to sure about his nano suit. Batman always has acess to the hell bat when its not destroyed and he doesnt use it unless he really has to as using the hellbat does kill him which is what i think a lot of people dont understand about that suit. The hellbat feeds off of Batmans metabolism it will end up killing him the longer he uses it. When people say "well Batman can just use the hellbat" your right he could but if his opponent destroys it batman will be weakend. Another problem i have with this was tony sneaking his nano armor into Batman as sneaking up on Batman is very hard to do especially without him noticing and tony isnt a master of stealth either he actually has a suit for that i believe. Its not easy to hack batmans tech cyborg was nkt able to do it. Its also hard to hack into tonys tech as well but if cyborg who is essentially a walking computer cant do it idk if tony could.

[@mrpugman6218]

Death Battle almost always without fail completely removes any sense of intelligence from the characters they want to lose. This is the reason why every battle with Batman just seems boring due to the fact of what makes him an interesting character is his intelligence, like yeah physically he can't beat darkseid but his strategies and thorough thinking are what lead him to victory and overall make the fight more interesting.

If i had to choose which Batman fight i prefer between the Ironman fight but not by much. There's so much that i love about it but i think the one thing that gets overlooked in this episode is how it shows the limitations of Batman's ability to prepare for whoever he fights. Sure Batman with prep time can godly, but most people tend to overhype it and think he can beat anyone with it. But clearly someone like Tony Stark is someone who can do that. I'm giving it an 8/10 just because of the shear effort that went into it.

[@devilcwesker5980]

This battle would of needed to be in 3D as theirs no pixel preview sites due to the final suit. Also Nemesis Bloodryche, while batman is inside the hellbat suit, he does looses some of his intelligence and tactical ability as the hell bat enrages him to the point that he becomes a berserk.

[@linkeastwood3283]

A big problem I had with the fight is that they hype both characters up to be literal god-tier in power, being able to defeat beings who can destroy multiverses. I accepted to see shit like that but all we got is half a city blowing up. It massively undersells their power and misses out on the incredible potential for galaxy-busting combat. Sure when it is on a smaller scale I can really feel the impact of their power which is great, but it just completely contradicts their stats. For me, this fight feels like the opposite of Hulk vs Broly. Great feel of impact but not enough scale. Could have been so much more, but I shouldn't be too disappointed. In my eyes, we haven't gotten a truly great Marvel vs DC episode since Hulk vs Doomsday.

[@The_Floosh]

The fact that Batman vs Iron-Man is the only Batman fight with an actual connection and it took them so long to get there, astounds me. Daredevil (Marvel’s Batman) or Moon Knight would be much better fights, since Batman doesn’t get instantly stomped, and the connections are actually… anything

[@zombiesp4372]

Batman ttechnically should have one this fight for the reasons you just said.

[@thepanthion]

I made some points when I saw the premiere. I knew from the start who would win, and explained why. I wasn't accurate in my explanation but I did say it looks like Batman would lose. It's because people don't care for Batman anymore... every bad comment about his is 'plot armour' arguments, or 'if he had prep time'. If Batmans ability is prep time, it'd be included in the DB, but it's not like he's the only one capable of planning for an enemy.

[@e1iteyoshi998]

It was included in this fight though. Because the beginning of the fight establishes that these two characters are aware of their existence.

Despite being the mascot of returning fighters, none of his fights go past "Okay" The ending pretty shit too, since it's just has effectively the same thing happens twice (with Batman just needing to land one fatal blow, before getting stopped and blown up).

Not really, the first 3 I thought were fine although idk why they decided to pit base batman vs spiderman as it was pretty clear a no prep time batman would get destroyed even with prep time unless he made something to counter Spidey it would be a very difficult fight. I dislike this one as since this was supposed to be both sides at maximum strength... or a least they made it seem that way and left a lot of things untouched/unmentioned that really ruins the whole thing for me. They've proven before they know to handle 2 characters of immesureable power when they did the flash vs sonic fight so idk why decided to nulify so much of each's arsenal

i kinda wish the fight was a season finale and went like this: Tony and Bruce in base forms fighting in the watchtower (Tony dominating when he actually hits bats, but Bruce is leading the fight by dodging and trying to get Tony in an advantageous spot before both get blasted out of the Watchtower) Tony and Bruce land in a desert/some empty place and get to use some of their sillier gadgets (Stuff like the bat-spray), this time Tony is leading the fight with Bruce having to be the one reacting and predicting Tony's next moves. (Possibly both of them could bust out a new suit) After this, the Justice Buster and Hulkbuster are both brought out along side other strong suits like the thorbuster and the Thrasher. This causes a giant mech war ending with Batman's Justice Buster being overwhelmed and him forcing to resort to the Hellbat to start gaining an advantage. Tony busts his godbuster out and both seem somewhat evenly matched. From here I see 2 outcomes: Tony Winning: Batman gets an advantage over the godbuster and is about to blast Tony's now-exposed head into dust before he turns around and realises all his mechs were hacked during the mech war. Bruce then fights off his own suit's, slowly wearing himself down and Tony recovers. Finally, Bruce turns back and is met face-to-face with the Godbuster's canon. In one blast, Bruce's armor is torn off by the beam before being disintergrated Iron Man vs Lex style. Bruce Win: Bruce is pressing his advantage over Tony and is about to deliver a lethal blow until Brother Eye and the Dyson Spehre both come crashing down, destroying all of the suits. The fist fight between Tony and Bruce plays out again even with Bruce being covered in a nano suit, and exploding. But after this "death" Tony hear's the voice of Bruce and looks up to see a silver and gold batsuit taking form over the weakened Batman. As Tony is in shock, Batman's Final Batsuit lets out a massive sonar signal as a massive swarm of bats charges towards Tony, slowly scratching at him to end his life. The last thing Stark seeing being the bright gold symbol of the batman burning through the black swarm of bats.

[@edgarantivarnanature.5256]

I thought it was silly for Batman to act like it was over in the end. I mean, Batman could have been more cautious, especially after being hit with a random satellite I would imagine he would this no twice for something up Tonys sleeve. I like that Tony won with the exploding iron man move he did in iron man 3. I knew Iron man was likely to win, but Batman didn't make Tony work that hard. I can't imagine Bruce dying while gloating. I see that happening to Tony.

[@kadinhausman2584]

Nice video man. Great breakdown of the episodes, man. Anyways, regarding the fight and how it went down, I agree that it should have been longer and I do believe that they should have used more of their armors (they brought up the Final Batsuit, the Model Prime Iron Man, and a bunch of other Iron Man armors). I don't think it was wrong for Batman to run away that day because if he got close when Iron Man had the suit on and ready for Batman, I feel like he would've been completely destroyed. Casual Batman VS Casual Iron Man is one of the most clear cut fights I can imagine (in the top 40, if I'm guessing). Iron Man would completely obliterate Batman in an all out fight before Batman even gets the Hellbat ready if he didn't run away. Also, I feel like they were both Lowballed in the fight. Not in the analysis, but just the fight. I mean, I don't engender it saying anywhere that Final Bat was stronger than Hellbat in the comics, so I feel like they could be comparable. But imma say it... even if the Final Batsuit was stronger than Hellbat, I still feel like the Godbuster armor would completely destroy it. As a matter of fact, the way they said the power scaling in the analysis just makes the beam struggle a load of BS. They said it could destroy the entire eSCAPE universe in a single blast yet it only destroyed a building in the clash. I get that Tony wouldn't let it all out at once, but it's still stronger than every other thing Iron Man created (as they stated). And sure the Hellbat could hold his own with Darkseid's avatar, which could destroy the DC universe which was bigger than our own like the Dragon Ball universe... but weaker armors than the Godbuster could hold his own against Thanos, who's comparable to Darkseid's avatar. And every time Batman fought Superman and won was a Superman that was suppressed in some way due to Red Sun energy or Kryptonite. Meanwhile, Iron Man has actually fight against beings comparable to Superman in all out fights (Thor and Iron Man weren't pulling punches in their fight). And they explained how the Final Batsuit's mind Manipulation wouldn't work on Iron Man too well to give him the edge in those black text boxes on the top right in the explanation. So Iron Man would still beat Batman even then. They need to stop putting Batman in fights with Marvel Characters. He loses everyone of them besides with Captain America... which I'm pretty sure was confirmed could go either way in the Marvel VS DC comics, which weren't canon, but I feel like their fight in the comic was more accurate with the way they were fighting. I feel like Cap VS Batman is a 50/50 when we're talking about their casual states.

[@lancers7]

i draw issue with Batman vs Ironman because they give Ironman prep time. He literally made a plan to take out Batman before he arrived. The kill also makes no sense. you can't make something from nothing. I feel like DB broke their own rules. Also the final batsuit doesn't make an appearance. Bad writing bad episode

honestly batman would destroy iron man if he had his hellbat suit and easily hack into starks suits if he can hack into cyborgs more advanced suits. unless if iron man has the godbuster suit then he would lose but then the final bat suit would destroy it.

I don't believe Batman not using much gadgets in Batman vs Captain America really matters, he already used five, my reasons being that Batman doesn't use more then five gadgets most of the time in the first place, and the fact that he was taking on Cap without a problem most of the fight anyways shouldn't lead Batman to using a ton of gadgets anyways.

Some of the complaints here are pretty stupid. I mean, how exactly is Batman supposed to use multiple suits? Do you want to see them, sure? Is it viable for him to change mid-fight, hell no.

[@TerribleVA]

I personally did not like Batman versus black panther, cuz it kind of put him into an obviously unwinnable fight on his side, however there is this one part of the animation I directly hate, and it's when Batman literally shits himself, because he was firing TRANQUILIZER DARTS at a lion, Batman is not afraid of using a gun, it's just against his moral code, and there are certain things he does not classify as a gun, he does not shit himself in fear every time he fires his grapple gun, that was just a stupid scene.

3 things about the Batman vs Iron Man battle 1. If DC can't have the Watchtower. No one can. 2. Batman uses the best option to win a fight and we never have any info that he can summon other suits at command. 3. They knew Tony would use the Nano Suit as a last resort.
