Oh man! That's a thing? :laughing:
As to Batman, would it not be the fact that he's not indestructible like Superman or some of the others, that, in addition to having no actual superpowers (bat hearing/sight? Radar?) he can and is sometimes beaten, or at least thwarted by his enemies? People like to see a superhero who can be brought down, at least temporarily, otherwise they might as well be reading about gods.
And yes, I know Superman can be neutralised with Kryptonite, but you can't walk into your local store and buy half a pound of that, can you? Also, look at the heroes in Watchmen: I don't think you'll find a single one of them who has an actual power (other than Doctor Manhattan, obviously). Never quite got the attraction of Supe: if you're basically indestructible, can see through things and run faster than a speeding bullet, who's gonna stop you? Who would bother trying? This is what I like about Spidey too: no real superpowers other than spider speed, spidey sense ah ****.... :(
