Yes. Yes he should. However, I think he might kick TOO much ***...

I've never understood why people like batman. It's a rich guy with some gadgets... fighting bland, uninteresting villains.

Eh, I've never been a big fan of the Batman either (or D.C., for that matter). There is something unappealing about some rich schmuck with emotional issues combating the forces of evil with sweet tech. I do disagree on the fact that Batman has fought faceless, uninteresting bad guys over the years. Batman has had it's fair share of interesting villains, especially in the more recent story arcs. I still find Clayface to be fascinating, for instance, in part of his origin and his mental malady (distortion of identity FTW). I'm not saying that interesting villains alone save it from being crappy, however. No, D.C. ruined the majority of their characters from day one---and then tried to compensate by getting some of the best artists and the best writers in the business decades later. It's kinda like oil on water: All of that good stuff is sitting on top of the bad, yet it's not coalescing together into a pure mix. The new talent they pulled from other comic companies (like Wildstorm and even Marvel) just couldn't save some of the characters from the "suck."

Although, like with most successful things, it's hard to point out the bad when people are gobbling the stuff up. There is a reason why some D.C. comics have (or had) 500 issues in a single outing. People like it and that's a fact.

On topic, though.

Batman in Brawl? Hardly. But if he were, his Up-B would definitely be a grappling hook.

Ironman is the same way (except that Batman actually did study martial arts and whatnot).

In any case, this thread is dumb and Batman would suck in Brawl. As would any other non-video game character.
