Who would win in a fight Batman versus Max Payne?

These questions Dave used to post as part of bigger review, but the fact is most of them came from arguments we would have on the whole who would win thing so I thought I would throw up my own.

This question seems pretty obvious to anyone who did not play Max Payne all the way through.  Batman has taken down hundreds of gun toting thugs who look a lot like Max.  However, as a fan of Max Payne I can say it wouldn’t be as clear cut as all that.  Max, like Batman, is haunted by the deaths of his family.  However, his deaths happened recently while he was an adult and included his child.  This gives him a much more nothing to lose attitude that is almost a death wish.  He, like Batman, has the ability to push through any level of pain and suffering to deliver more pain to his enemies.  If you don’t believe me just replay the Baseball Bat chapter.

I do think Batman would triumph in this fight, but it wouldn’t be a easy or clean as most fights against normal civilians would be.  Max has untested reserves and an unholy resourcefulness that might surprise the Bat.  Plus he has bullet time.

This image I pulled from Dave’s Batman t shirt collection, another one where he has hundreds of shirts.
