Batman

Batman in the Marvel Comics Universe would be interesting, to say the least. Batman would never join the Avengers. It would be impossible for him to work with Captain America or Iron Man. He wouldn’t fit in with Luke Cage’s squad either. However, he might find a common ground with T’Challa.

Both of these men would benefit from one another. T’Challa and Bruce would find someone who may be each other’s equal in planning and fighting. They both have the same mindset that goes something like, “Stay out of my city/country and leave me alone.” Both of them are too stubborn to ask for help and they rarely accept it. Though, they would compare notes that they don’t mind sharing. The funny thing is they’d both keep secrets for each other and respect that it’s happening.

When the universe has one of its many close encounters, having Batman around would be an asset. The first thing he’d do is analyze the threats that Earth normally encounters. After studying how to defeat them, he’d have plans in place to take care of them. He could put people in places where they’d be the biggest help. Who knows what he’d have planned for Galactus or the Kree. One thing’s certain, the Skrulls wouldn’t be able to infiltrate the Bat-Family without him knowing.
