If you had to choose to keep only two superheroes out of the whole canon, and every other superhero would evaporate into nothingness, you would be hard-pressed not to choose Batman and Superman. Sure, they might be safe choices, but they are perfect foils for each other and the essential archetypes of what a hero can be. Superman was born with his powers, which are only considered unique on Earth because he's an alien. Batman is a regular human man without any God-given abilities to help him along. Clark Kent had an uneventful middle-class rural upbringing, while Bruce Wayne was the son of billionaires who witnessed his parents being murdered in front of him. Superman can fly, and Batman can only drive. They couldn't be more different on paper, but their abilities to fight bad guys and their sense of duty make them inextricable figures in the DC comics universe. If you prefer Batman and Superman over Iron Man and Spider-Man any day of the week, these DC memes might suit you.
