>"Died" twice in less than 10 years
>Always gets his villains coming back to bite him in the ass

Batman

Rick people suffer more than normal people. Being rich is hard work.
>>
>>82789144
Batman is able to progress. While this comes with negatives like getting his back broken and Robins dying, he's gained a son, friends in the JL, etc.

Spider Man is eternally unable to fully escape from his status quo. Even when he developed a new status quo with a wife, that gets taken awat from him.

Bats

Literally nothing he does will EVER make a difference.
People like to spin Bats as a sign of hope for standing up for what's right in the most Corrupt city ever and than five seconds later completely disregard that
He fucking spends billions refurbishing and rehabilitating entire neighborhoods and it never matter ever
He watched his parents die
He watched his second adopted son die
And he watched his biological son die
>>
Spider-Man pays the fucking rent.

It's not enough that, for all his strength, he gets his bones broken on a regular basis and has to hide it more skillfully than an army wife in an abusive relationship.

Nor is it enough that he has to take care of his sickly aunt/mother, whom he can't even confide in because he's afraid she'll either literally have a heart attack and die, or shun him when she discovers he's directly responsible for the death of her husband, confirming the guilt he tries to forget.

And if that wasn't enough, he tries - and fails, and fails, and fails - to have normal, healthy relationships with women and friends, but ends up getting them endangered at best and dead at worst.

No, the worst of it is, he gets shit on publicly. Every day in the papers, every night in his niggling, inescapable fears. "Spider-Man is a menace." And he has to walk up to the cigar-chomping right-wing ape who shits on him, and every month, he has to beg this man for money.

Because Spider-Man has to pay the fucking rent.

Batman suffers from God-awful writers and horrifically decompressed storylines that mean nothing and keep him alone and single while making no narrative progress until every once in awhile a BIGHUGE EVENT CHANGES EVERYTHING and ruins any sense of stability he might at least draw solace from before going right back to the monotony.

This is the original Spider-Man premise. I don't care about shit like getting the Symbiote Suit or accidentally dying and getting replaced by Dock Ock. In terms of the core narrative, this is totally accurate.
>>
>>82789409
He's pretty ok everywhere bar the Mephistoverse (and any place Slott did'nt touch in Spider-Verse)

Even then he still can't catch a goddamn break!
He's doing mildly better than before but it's all gonna come crumbling down, because that's just how his life works.

Somebody just kill him and give the poor guy some mercy.
Not that it'd stop him for long.

batman never stops and thinks about how pathetic he is going around cosplaying with bad guys any one with actual super powers can defeat on their way to the bathroom having to drop a duce and its peaking

like OP's pic i see him having a moment of clarity not think about his parents.
>"omg my underwear is on the outside of my spandex pants"
and the weight of that sentence tears away the facade
>>
>>82789333
the only reason hes doing ok now is because spock turned his life around
give it time, the parker luck will kick in and his life will be shit again
>>
>>82789144
Bruce gets haunted by the memories of his parents being murdered. A tragedy but was something out of his control.
Peter, till the day he dies will always have the fact that he could have and should have stopped the burglar and chose not to. Which ultimately led to the death of his uncle.
I can see who who beat himself up harder.

Bruce, since he has more people to be worried about.

Spidey doesn't have kids (kek) and he doesn't really give a fuck about all his clones, which was always weird to me. His girls come and go, so he only has Aunt May as constant family.
>>
>>82789677
Bruce sometimes feels guilty over his parents death since some tellings of it have him give his mother the pearls or want to go to the movies or something. That and he feels guilty for everything that happens to people who get close to him

Bruce

Spidey does some stupid shit to himself like the whole unmasking thing for Civil War or not getting a good job despite being a super genius but he still has people who love him and is somewhat normal and well adjusted

Batman is fucked up. I don't buy into the whole HURR CRAZY AS HIS VILLAINS but he's clearly someone who suffers from depression and emotional trauma to an unhealthy extent especially when you consider every superhero out there must suffer from PTSD and all sorts of hang ups.

Batman has been shown to be happy plenty of times both with his adopted kids and with the members of the JL

I know Spidey is an Avenger but he's never really been a mainstay has he? He hangs out with them and the F4 and a few others but for the most part he's alone and nothing really good happens for him and if it does it gets snatched away really hard and really fast

A little shrimp with a genius intelligence.

Wade "Supercancer of the everything, but you can't die because of your healing factor despite the excruciating pain, and the tumors in your brain also make you mentally unstable" Wilson.

That's just the top layer. When we go into his ambiguous childhood, his attempt to enlist and become a national hero because he looked up to Captain America only to end up on Weapon X's butcher table, his realization during his mercenary work that he'd not only never be anything like Captain America but was the furthest thing from loved and respected and will always be feared or hated (despite not being a mutant) because of his deformities and inability to do anything outside kill or not die in a long life with no promise, his failed unstable relationships and having to kidnap and threaten a weak old lady and scrawny brain for company and companionship it all just keeps snowballing.

Hulk has certainly brought Bruce immeasurable problems, then again a lot of them may have been solved through Hulk math, but Bruce at the very least has a normal mode, his genius intellect and also when Hulk is temporarily cured he usually has opportunities.
If Wade's healing factor turns off he usually finds he's pretty useless and this is assuming the cancer doesn't kick back in and kill him like it would have.

Though he's been thrown a bone by the writers recently through a daughter, but we'll have to see how long it lasts.
>>
>>82791494
You provided some good counterpoints there.
>>
>>82789144
I'd say Spider-Man has it worse off. Both have suffered some terrible setbacks, but reality just seems to have a huge boner for screwing over Parker whenever it can. (My fav. fan theory is that the 'ole Parker luck is directly caused by Peters deal with Mephisto as punishment for devil dealing.)

Batman doesn't get hit quite as hard with the status quo reset nearly as often. Plus he actively has shown that being Batman has helped Gotham.
>>
Both suffer from the same fundamental trauma.

However, Bruce has a FAR better sense of responsibility and maturity than Peter does. He is able to manage having a twin life, Peter can often barely pay the rent and generally can't hold a steady job outside of photography. (a dying profession)

Peter often comes across as a teenager that never grew up.
>>
>>82792198
>Plus he actively has shown that being Batman has helped Gotham.
Just as quickly we get a sneak peak into the future with Old Bruce or Damian staring out from a window in the mansion at a much worse Gotham with a scowl on their face that would make Clint and Dredd shake their head in sympathy.

When Peter gets old or checks out NY is still just NY.
>>
>>82792389
Isn't the whole point that Gotham is on a downward spiral anyway?

Batman is only slowing things down, not providing a 100% fix solution.

You can't make people choose morality through fear, bribes or even legitimate good will efforts. Especially when worse people can just as easily make those converted choose the easier option of negligence or evil through fear, bribes and the chance to hurt others.

The crime in Gotham runs too deep and far for efforts inside it scaring a few goons to ever really reshape it. Harder punks and criminals will just move in when people soften up, and while I don't want it to become about an ultimatum the fact is if Batman and his kids don't step up to killing their enemies those hardened criminals are just going to keep flooding in until the reality of the situation sets in.

The very projects the gov built became the nests of the worst of the worst.

It was founded by people worshiping Darkseid (they thought it was just the Devil) and much of the old city planning was done by people who went insane at various pointy during the construction.

Dunno about that outside of when someone like Slott wants everyone to hate Peter and refuse to help him he usually has the Fantastic Four, Avengers and X-Men to support him if he needs them. With Batman it changes from universe to universe and writer to writer, but in the DCAU at least the JL seems to go their separate ways and Batman and Superman are both left to their fates.
The money and Kryptonian powers did not help.

And he wasn't actually that much funny when he tried to be, only through his failures. He's basically the typical clown or cartoon that never gets what he wants and everything goes bad for him. But writers nowadays try make him actually "cool" and witty
>>
Batman is loaded and tons of friends and family to help him by.

Spider-man needs scraps just for rent and everybody hates him.

Agreed. Half of Batman's suffering is subconscious ego-stroking. Parker has legitimate issues and the universe has aligned to make sure he remains unhappy.

now we go back and forth from "you are a sign of hope for Gotham" to "Gotham will always need a Batman" to "Gotham is a meta machine that exists to create a Batman" to "Batman creates his own villain and Gotham would be bettere without him" etc.

A lot of Batman's suffering is self inflicted.

Darkseid tried to clone Batman to use him as a physical vessel (peak human specimen and what not) but all the clones went insane with grief due to the amount of suffering that carried over from Bruce.

Aside from the occasional awful writing Peter's hardships usually happen because of things out of his control or as a surprise. He's fighting against the universe and shit happens to him constantly.

Bruce is almost entirely self inflicted, caused by himself and he's obsessive about it. The man has legitimate issues and should seek actual help.

Spider-Man by far. If Bruce Wayne quits being Batman tomorrow, nothing would change. Bruce can ask Selina to marry him on the spot and she would say yes in a heartbeat. He can move away after that and Gotham wouldn't get any shittier, and everyone can be happy.

If Spider-Man would quit his life would actively get worse until status quo slaps his shit again. New York is guaranteed to get even worse than it usually is, his social life wouldn't improve, there isn't a single girl that would even want Peter now, etc. And that doesn't stop the enemies he made over the years from hunting him down.

Batman's misfortune is, at the end of the day, self-inflicted. Spider-Man's on the other hand, is directly from things he can't even control. It's just Parker luck.
>>
>>82789289
Well the writers don't hate Batman the way they do Spidey. They don't call it "Parker Luck" for nothing.

He has. Tons of times.

Since I'm old as fuck, I can relate to Batman's grown man suffering more, but realize that part of it is self-inflicted. I have more sympathy for Spiderman since he just gets crapped on by the Marvel universe.

Spider-man for sure. Norman alone basically drags Peter's life through the mud without consequence. let alone other top tier villains like Ock.

I think I suffer the most. The emotional roller coaster that is the comic industry has left me in ruins. And a virgin.
>>
If we're talking about writers... Peter suffers so much more. Batman at least suffers to show the readers that he's still human, still cares. Spidey suffers because the writers can't imagine him EVER BEING HAPPY OR IN CONTROL OF HIS LIFE!

Story- wise, Peter's guilt is worse. Batman's vengeful rage isn't guilt. Bruce feels like shit about Jason and Tim, but ultimately he didn't cause these tragedies to happen (two examples only, on mobile). Peter killed Gwen and his inaction killed Ben. It could be argued his complacency killed DeWolffe.

Of course, if we really want to count OMD as a (legit)Peter thing and not some Quesada bullshit... then Pete deserves to suffer.
>>
>>82789144
Batman suffers more because he has a shit ton of money and that works against his favor because he feels empty in spite of his playboy lifestyle.
Spiderman has to work twice as much as a normal person just to get by and save the city, but in the end at least he gets the sense of accomplishment for a job well done and the love of those closest to him.
>>
>>82815027
>the love of those closest too him
>gets a sense of accomplishment

what Spider-man books are you reading nigga because I want them
>>
>>82789144
Batman has money to sooth his suffering, Spider-Man doesn't.
>>
Spider-Man has more actual suffering. Batman may suffer more, but the vast majority of his suffering is self-imposed.
>>
Spider-man finds more enjoyment in his life which is ripped away from him at every turn.

Batman is an empty husk of a man who can't find enjoyment in anything who's trying to help his city that's inevitably going to die anyway.

Batman's mental game is completely fucked up depending on the version, an even at his happiest he's still pretty fucked up. He as well as everyone he knows are always suffering.

Spidey is constantly in a spiral of guilt and not feeling worthy to have a normal life because of his powers and pushing those who love him away from him (or they suffer because of him) or they just suffer to suffer because life works that way.

Peter's unwinnable battle is one of atonement that constantly has him stuck in a loop where reality strolls through occasionally to fuck his shit up before he returns to the loop. Bruce's battle is with his urge for vengeance which constantly has him stuck in a loop.

Bruce's life is almost constant pain and wallowing in his failures while Spidey has higher highs but lower lows.

spiderman.
peter parker is basically shit on all day long at his job, in his relationship (if he's allowed to have one depending on who's writing him) and generally broke. As spiderman it's an escape from his day to day life but if he's not making enough money he cant make webbing

batman could have bad days as a hero, but he can enjoy being a rich play boy bruce wayne to pass the time.

I'm not a fan of marvel .. but I respect spiderman

Batman has a son(although he always had adopted children).. something to fill that void.


Peter is a younger boy .. and feels responsible.. Ben did not die because Peter let out the criminal who killed him? or it was only in the movie?

i think batman makes things worse for himself (though both do batman more so). at least peter can have some enjoyment in life.

also spider-man isn't in love with his nemesis like bat/joker

One of the terrible things is because the editor of Marvel decided to flush Peter's marriage down the drain and put him back with his aunt May because that's what Peter was like when he was young.

So it happens permanently after the One More Day events?

That's pretty lame I guess. But I really can't see OMD as anything but a small what-if that has no impact on the grand scheme of things if not.
>>
Batman had it worst. He got fucked up so hard he lost his humanity.

Though I initially thought Pete had it worse before I thought about it.
>>
>>82819491

Well, before One More Day he had a long successful marriage with Mary Jane. After OMD they were never married.

I think one of the in universe reasons was because Mephisto feared Peters unborn daughter.
>>
>>82820113
Going by Millar's Old Man Logan he had good reason to fear her.

But yeah that's kind of retarded.
>>
>>82789144
Spider-Man.

Ultimately he has all the same sorts of problems as Batman. His struggle is eternal, he can't give it up due to guilt, it puts his loved ones in horrible danger,etc. But Batman revels in his misery, and is ultimately less optimistic, and therefore hurt less when things go wrong.

>Batman revels in his misery
People misconstrue this about his character because he's a dark character.

A soldier learns to cope with atrocities of war for survival if not victory or risk being no use to anyone or worse a liability to everyone. Bruce learned to draw strength from misery as many GLs and Sinestro noted but he does not enjoy it.

Batman isn't dark because of his tragedy but the tragedy of his reflex to it. With no super senses to prioritize things for him he bulk collects all the horrors of human society you can imagine and goes through it, slowly, to try (and sometimes fail) and solve it all at once.

In Mask of the Phantasm, while speaking to Owlman, during the hallucination of his parents in pic related arc, etc faced with the futility he pleads to humanity to just stop the horror the way a broken believer would to heaven. There is seldom an answer.

It's one thing to gaze into the abyss and not blink, watching it on repeat for 12 hours straight hoping to unravel it is not good for the mind.

People misconstrue this for self-imposed suffering, but Bruce doesn't have a choice. He has options of which path he'd like to take, but no real choices down either.

Bruce knows he can run with his money, put on a smile for the family during movie night, enjoy the sanctuary of Wayne Manor but between every second of that he also knows down below the cave's computers are collecting facts about people with no option for escape. And more the next day, and the next day, and the next day. Every day he takes a night off because crime doesn't sleep.

And yet whether or not he even tries he knew he failed the moment he started. There are too many victims to save and not enough heroes, knowing this no matter the life he lives there is no hope in his eyes whether staring at a computer or TV screen.

One can get over it of course, but like the soldier on the battlefield that does not stop the war.

>>82789144
Peter suffers more, but I would say that is a result of his own actions rather than the world around him.

Batman unless written by a complete and utter hack, admits when he's fucked up his relationships or a situation. But he;ll get up every time, try and fix the damage and continue with his life.

Peter though... I think One More Day hit the problem on the head. Ultimately, he is a selfish individual at this moment in time. He'll do some asinine things and ultimately when they backfire in his face and he's left to pick up the pieces, he won't learn. He'll just keep doing the same thing over and over again.

Comparing the suffering between them, I'm reminded of a quote from ASOIAF 'love is the bane of honor, the death of duty'. Batman ultimately chooses his self imposed duty over personal fulfillment. Peter chooses to do his self imposed duty until it bites him in the ass.

Deadpool's suffered more than Matt desu. It makes his small victory now more satisfying. Deadpool's been mind controlled into killing his parents, lost almost every partner he has, pretty much in constant pain due to his cancer and healing factor, permanently disfigured, had to kill his own friend in prison after watching him get forcibly lobotomized, tortured constantly, temporarily and partially insane, etc.

Memes aside, Wade has had a very hard life.
