Who would win: Batman versus Ozymandias?

This is an interesting question.  On paper it looks like Ozymandias would wipe the floor with Batman.  Ozymandias is fast enough to catch a bullet, super strong, and hyper intelligent.  Not to mention he is ruthless on a level far beyond the pale.  Batman, while equipped with all sorts of cool devices and a never say die attitude, is still merely human.

However, the one factor you can never really account for is the fact that Batman has a resourcefulness that makes MacGuyver look like an amateur and a drive to save the lives of the innocent that gives him serious motivation.  Faced with Ozy’s plan to kill millions of people to make a political statement I believe Batman would find a way.

Unfortunately, without time to prepare and just based on what we know from the comics and movies, I would have to put this one firmly in Ozymandias’s favor.  Sorry Batman.

The Watchmen image I got from Dave’s Comic Book t shirt collection.  He only has a few from the Watchmen.  I really like the Dr. Manhattan one.
