Who wins: Batman vs. Black Manta

>baby Arthur strapped to his chest
Manta easily, 90% of fighting is motivation

>>93963958
But what if defeating Black Manta also would bring back Bruce's parents?

Whose will is stronger?

Who's more petty: Manta or Thawne?

>>93964035
Thawne is infinitely more petty. Manta operates in much broader strokes.

>>93964035
Thawne is just very yandere not truly petty

Black Manta: for he shall break anything that impedes his progress to ruining Aquaman's life; for no force shall prevent him from making Aquaman suffer; for he knows precisely what action to take that will hurt Aquaman the most. And if killing batman would do this, Black Manta shall murder Batman

Batman would only have a chance if he had not taken the baby into the battle. Black Manta gets a bonus at infantacide.

Bringing back the Waynes would KILL Batman's motivation. He doesn't want to bring them back, he wants to spend his life fighting in their name by beating up mentally ill people with high-tech body armor.

Manta is more petty but Thawne has the ultimate resource for acts of pettyness.
Thawne is dealing with a guy of the same powerset
Manta is dealing with a guy much much stronger than him and rules over the majority of the planet and can control most of its inhabitants. Manta is just a guy with some goons, a helmet, and a submarine.

>If someone was born one month after Aquababby got poached and had a child at age 25 that child is probably posting on /v/ or /pol/ right now
Just think, entire generations of people don't know a world where Aquaman has suffered his greatest shame.

He slaughtered Aquaman's muslim waifu

When Black Manta appears you KNOW that people are going to die.

If Manta had Thawne's powers the answer would be a no brainer

I really hope Yahya does a good job in the role.

Batman always wins. I'm not even saying that to piss everyone off but that's just what he fucking does. His character is getting out of situations.

If I want to read about black mana, where do I start?

He's the villain in the first 2 volumes of Aquaman Rebirth. It's pretty good.

Based and smug
- Manta is the best

>>93965362
Me too. It's kind of a make it or break it situation for the character. They need to make him relentless and petty but also based as fuck.

I really want to say Manta but I think having a jet beats having a submarine in most scenarios
