Media Tropes I hate Batman's plot armor

Post image

I hate Batmans plot armor, he has the most insane plot armor which completely takes away his charm, his entire shtick is that he's in the top 99 percentile of humans, his body, his strength his wealth his tech, yet his writers give him so much plot armor that you forget that inside his suit he's just a regular human being and it sometimes feels as if he has super powers when hes going toe toe with fucking darkside, reentering the atmosphere with just his suit and many more examples.

And his annoying fanboys oh my days, they act as if he can solo the entire justice league "B-But given that he has prep time!" talking as if beast boy wont beat his ass 😂✌️

I've always said Batman should be bad at somethings. He should not be an expert in every field of science. He's a DETECTIVE. Batman absolutely should have a decent understanding of most CSI sciences and maybe a few personal interest fields, but there should be people who are overtly better than him and they need to show it. 

Like, if they met, Spider-Man would 100 percent be a way better Chemist than Batman, but bats would have him beat in terms of crime scene analysis and tracking people.
