he also practiced various martial arts to study in Tibet. He chose the bat symbol which is actually his phobia.
How about Tony Stark? Stark is a successful businessman who doesn't really think much about the state of the world, until he discovers a fact that surprises him.
The weapons produced by his company turned out to be used by terrorists to do evil. This makes him decide to become Iron Man to atone for his mistakes.
In terms of motivation, Jaka chose Batman as the winner.
Riches

They were both handsome, but good looks wouldn't help much in the face of enemies.
Their greatest strength is abundant treasure. Because of the treasure (and genius brain) they have, they are able to make sophisticated superhero costumes.
Bruce has Wayne Enterprises, whereas Tony has Stark Industries. So, who is richer?
Reported from Forbes, it turns out that Tony's wealth is more than Bruce. the winner, Iron Man.
Ability to Analyze and Develop Strategies
Photo source: CBR Batman is not a superhero who only uses muscle power, but also uses brain power.
In the comic version, he has analytical skills like a detective. This is supported by the instincts it has.
Bruce can quickly analyze problems and come up with solutions. Therefore, Batman is the one who set the strategy in the movie Justice League.
On the other hand, Tony is a futurist and realist. He is the only member of the Avengers who has been worried about Thanos' arrival for a long time.
The problem is, Tony is not a strategist. The proof is that Thanos' ambush on Titan was Peter Quill's plan, not him.
Sorry Tony, for this round, Batman the winner.
Level of Genius in Making Weapons
Photo source: Wonder Costumes Both are gifted with brilliant brains and it is an important provision to become a superhero without superpowers.
However, Tony is clearly more genius because he is able to design various technologies that make him an Iron Man.
Tony is able to make Mark 1 when he was held captive with makeshift spare parts. Then, he made a battle suit that was always better than the previous versions.
Bruce is clever, but he can't make sophisticated armor Mark 50 nor a personal assistant as intelligent as Jarvis, though he had a very loyal assistant, Alfred.
This time, Iron Man superior to Batman.
Hand-to-hand Combat Ability
Photo source: CBR As Jaka mentioned above, Bruce has mastered various martial arts techniques including ninjutsu, so he is very reliable in hand-to-hand combat.
In fact, Bruce started practicing martial arts when he was only 8 years old. Strength and endurance exceed humans in general.
On the other hand, Tony is less skilled because he is basically a businessman. He became a superhero when he grew up.
Without his armor, Tony is just a genius, billionaire, playboy, and philanthropist. In a one-on-one battle without costumes and weapons, Tony is certain to be battered.
the winner, Batman.
Armor and Weapons

Although we can see Batman's robot costume in the movie Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice, still it is no match for Iron Man.
From Mark 1 to those who use nano technology are always equipped with sophisticated and deadly weapons.
Not to mention if Iron Man took out HulkbusterOf course, it is certain that Batman will struggle to survive his onslaught. This time, Iron Man superior.
Enemies Ever Faced

Iron Man in his three films faces various enemies, ranging from Obadiah Stane, Whiplash, until Aldrich Killian.
Iron Man has also fought against troops Chitauri, Loki, Ultron, until Thanos. He has faced all kinds of opponents from humans, gods, monsters, to aliens.
What about Batman? More or less the same. He has faced Two-Face, Penguin, Bane, Lex Luthor, Doomsday, until Steppenwolf.
However, Iron Man had never met such an enemy Joker, a super villain maniac and no less intelligent.
Maybe there is Zemo which puts Iron Man and Captain America at odds, but Zemo doesn't leave a city ravaged by his plans.
Batman won this one round.
