The Batwing (1989) vs The Bat (2012)

[super85]

I prefer The Bat.

 

[Hobgoblin]

There was nothing wrong with The Bat but the Batwing was just too cool to beat.

This is a hard one for me.

Both were nothing short of incredible. Not sure if I can pick.

EDIT: Just read the original question. Misunderstood the question.

There's no question "The Bat" would obliterate the Batwing. This is like asking which would come out in better condition on a head on collision, the 89 Batmobile or the Tumbler. We all know the answer to that.

I do like that the FOREVER Batwing turned into a sub like the original Golden Age Batplane.

I sure do: potato salad!

 

[Marx]

I have to support the '89 Batwing.

...both have their pros and cons in a straight on fight though.

In all fairness, the '89 Batmobile tore through a street with two lanes of traffic flipping cars over as it went. The '89 Batmobile (thanks to movie magic ) is arguably just as tough as the Tumbler.

You think the Batwing would beat The Bat is an aerial battle? as that is the question, not which you like best visually.

 

[The Sage]

The Batwing looked the coolest, but in a fight the Bat wins.

I believe the Batcopter would destroy both the Batwing and The Bat, but that's just me.

 

[Marx]

...since the Batwing was taken down by a lone gunshot, I guess the Bat gets the edge in a fight. That being said, we didn't really get to see what all the Batwing could do. Had the Batwing been filmed with today's technology, i think it would probably be a much different picture.

 

[Kane52630]

Explosive shells.

 

[Homer J. Fong]

Interesting that the Batwing from Batman Forever is being totally excluded. My vote would and does still go to The Bat, though.

Why is Batman even using radar lock on a human being?

The real reason for that radar targeting system scanning Joker was just a nice little way to represent the Joker logo. The same way the batwing making a silhouette on the moon was a nice symbolic way to represent the batman logo. t:
