I like 'em both, but as much as I like Batman, I'd rather be Superman, Kryptonite or no Kryptonite. Supes comes with built in powers, so he doesn't need a large bank account to provide for gadgets, he isn't a traumatized 8 year old trapped in a man's body, and he has a more upbeat outlook on life.

As much as I love both characters (I go back and forth as to which one's my favourite), I would much rather be Batman. As haunted and psychologically unstable as he is, Bruce Wayne has the satisfaction of having built Batman from the ground up. All of his skills, all of his strength, all of his knowledge, is nothing but his own. Striking fear into the hearts of criminals - having felons flee from you - being the Dark Prince of the Night, how can you beat that? Superman, to put it in crude terms, won the genetic lottery...
I thought about something today, and it's videogame-related. The X-Box racing series Project Gotham Racing, to be exact. When the first installment was on the Sega Dreamcast, it was called Metropolis Street Racing. Then I thought about it more - one is named after the home of Batman, and the other, the home of Superman! Guess Bizarre Creations are huge fans of DC...
