    We all know the Caped Crusader has morals, one of the most well known is that he vowed to never use a gun.  But what if a Zombie Plague spread across the earth? What if the zombies overran Gotham City, and overwhelmed the heroes, leaving only a few survivors?  Would Batman use a gun if there was nothing else? If not, what would he use to defend himself from the hordes of the undead? 
    What do you think?

    - The Bat-tank shall be used instead of guns.
    - He'll have an arsenal of Bat-grenades, Zombie-stunners and anything else other than automatic weapons. 
    - He'd spend most of his alone time sulking about killing the Un-dead Bat-family. 
    - He'd have to paint everything yellow incase of the Zombie Green Lanterns, and he'd need to rig the Bat-cave with Kryptonite, assuming it still works on Superman. 
    - Bats would break off Zombie Flash's legs, and take him down from their. 
    - Zombie WW would get bound in her Lasso and blown up in an abandoned building along with other un-dead Justice Leaguers. 
    - He would lure as many Zombified bad guys as possible to Arkham and destroy it along with all the Zombies there. 
    - He would capture one of the Zombified versions of someone close to him and eventually find a cure. (maybe) 
    - If not, he'd gather survivors to the Bat-cave, arm them, and they would continue to survive underground away from the Zombie's territory.

    probably rebase to Ra's al Ghul's lair or Atlantis... Zombies can't swim...Supes would probably be one of the survivors, so he would still have muscle on his side, and Doctor Fate is probably unaffected.

    @Primmaster64: I thought the same thing too, but then I thought; what if he got bitten by a Zombified version of one of his Super-villains or another hero, like the Parasite or Mongul, Captain Marvel or someone else? in that scenario he could probably be bitten. Then falls the other Super-family members.

    I forgot all about Doc Fate... But assuming Superman is bitten by another Super-being, he *might* be able to be infected. If not, Supes can just speed blitz through all the Zombies and Batman can sit back and watch.

    I dont think Batman would be opposed to killing zombies.  His understanding of killing usually goes to sentient humanoids.  For example he thought nothing in the past of killing sentient androids (Manhunters) so why would zombies be any different.  Probably though he would just pull a Omega Man-I am Legend type of plan, sitting in the Batcave, eating cans of baked beans, while running tests on infected Alfred.

    He finds an old military base after killing hordes of the suckers and uses his amazing intellect to create a new bat cave if the old one is infested (otherwise he just sets up stronghold there) From there he sets up effecient defense systems, does dirty work and studies zombies, and stays there until he finds a cure. If there is no cure he lives underground or goes to space. He is the perfect person to survive a Zombie apocalypse. If any one person has a chance it is him by far.

    Oh you mean what would he do against the Court of Owl's Talons? Put them under ice. The guy literally went up against highly trained, capable of thought, ninja zombies. I'm pretty sure he can take on less intelligent zombies.
