Superman vs. Batman: Who is the REAL popular one?

[MenacingMonk]

Let's keep it real, these 2 alone are the most popular OF ALL TIME. They birthed the emergence of hero comic characters. But who reigns supreme?

I think it could go either way. This board seems to be Batman dominant tho.

And that's why it ain't going either way

For some reason I thought people would take a different view of it then their own.

If they ever make a comic book where Superman stops giving a fukk, he'll kill Batman a second and we can forget about this silly debate.

Wasn't there some shyt about how the Superman S is up there with Jesus's Cross, McDonald's Arches and the Olympic Rings in terms of iconography? I think that says it all.

Superman dwarfs batman in terms of history, mythology, recognizability, and being an icon.

In 2015, batman has 'more fans' in america, because of film, and the fact that pure heroes are still passée

What's the joke?

Superman is clearly the most popular. Its like a greek mythology story of Zues and Hercules. Or Egyptian mythology of Osiris and Horus. Or even God and Jesus. You'll see more people wearing Superman T shirts than Batman. This doesn't take anything away from Batman, but its just what it is. In hiphop its like Nas and JayZ. Nas would be Batman and JayZ would be superman. The darknight is underground and Supes is pop. I can almost guarantee you that most kids recognize a Mickey Mouse logo before a Bugs Bunny logo. But we all know which cartoon we'd rather watch.

though i never really liked him, generally, superman is more popular. however, batman has been on fire for a minute, the nolan trilogy did wonders to make him visible for casuals and non-comic book enthusiasts, also rocksteady's arkham series of videogames did great in that regard too, and it also helps that his animated series tend to be better than superman's, so now it could go either way, though i still think superman has the edge in popularity. personally, i always preferred batman.
