Batman vs. Superman

Batman vs. Superman Thesis 1. Looking back on my youth, I feel that Batman is a better superhero than Superman. 2. Both Batman and Superman are heroes, but only one is truly a superhero. 3. Despite the fact that both Batman and Superman qualify as a hero, it is their upbringing, motives, and criminal targets which clearly elevates Batman as a superior hero to Superman. 4. Although both Batman and Superman were created in a similar time period, both heroes define what it means to be a modern day hero. 5. Like all superheroes, both Batman and Superman have different backgrounds, different moral standards, and different types of enemies.
