I know there are a lot of these type threads, but they mostly contain Batman haters or people spamming the thread with scans of Batman shooting darkseid and the Hyperclan feat, which aren't that impressive. Are there any Batman prep feats which show significant scientific and tactical prowess? The ones I can think of right now are making a device to depower Bombshell (originally made for Major Force), Hellbat, Justice Buster and Return of Bruce Wayne. Are there anymore? Please provide scan. And is batman really the second smartest human after Lex Luthor?

@mister_pimping: i can help you with the intelligence bit.

in my opinion lex and bats are about the same intelligence wise. it really depends on story; in one story batman is always ahead of lex and easily outsmarts him, in another lex easily outsmarts batman. i'd say that are about equal.

@mister_pimping: There is a site for that has the answers you're looking for: http://batmanfeats.blogspot.com/ It contains prep feats, martial arts feats, intelligence, etc.

Some of the scans there are out of context.

Of course they're impressive, they're feats that actually matter in the context of the story.

I didn't mean it like that. I meant it as in if you compare Batman with Black Panther in terms of prep, and you use that feat it wouldn't be as impressive as Bp's prep feats are a demonstration great knowledge in sciece and tech.
