In a chess match: Stark or Batman
In a science fair competition: Reed or Stark
In a manipulation game: Lex or Batman
But when it comes down to the most promising brilliant mind? I wouldn't know whether it was Reed or Lex.
As mentioned before, Lex almost became a God. The guy cooks up a cure for paraplegics like it was his breakfast cereal and he constantly outsmarts Superman whom people forget, is hard to work around what with the Super Speed, Strength, X-ray Vision, Durability... On top of all that, he was able to become an American President! He also hangs with guys like Braniac and I think that speaks for itself...
Reed, however, is the golden boy scientist of Marvel and he has every right to be... he saves the world with his rough draft inventions and he outsmarted a very ambitious Galactus. He finds Stark good company and his rivals are just as intelligent as he is (Dr.Doom).
If I would choose however, my pick would be Lex because his ambition is what makes him so smart and devious. Stark and Bats are genius' in their own fields but they pale in comparison to what Reed and Lex are CAPABLE of.
