8. The Batman Family Vs. Dora Milaje
Batman, as well as Black Panther, are surrounded by a team of allies who they occasionally fight side by side. In the comic world, having allies is a positive thing. Don’t get confused, we are not referring to the Avengers or the Justice League, but the Bat family that consists of Robin, Batgirl and Nightwing. Black Panther has the Dora Milaje, who are the female warriors that make up the King’s Guard, and a bunch of fierce African warriors that rank among the best in the world. The Dora Milaje are devoted to their King, and while the Bat-family would give them a run for their money, the Dora Milaje are stronger and more powerful compared to the Bat family. The Mijale warriors are born to fight, and every bit of their DNA is forged for combat, while the Bat Family would perish in seconds if they had to face the Milaje.
7. Earned Titles Through Trials
It’s obvious that Bruce Wayne created the persona of Batman, spending a lot of years abroad training and learning all his skills. He traveled the world, absorbing every bit of knowledge he could use on his conquest. Once he had acquired all that he desired he returned home to Gotham City to start fighting crime and protecting the people of Gotham City. On the other hand, King T’Challa also had to go through rigorous training, but he did not go off to create his own persona. The Black Panther is just a title in his country of origin, and to earn his title he had to go through many Wakanda rituals and trials. The Black Panther title wasn’t his birthright, he had to fight for it. Otherwise it would have fallen on anyone. Instead of sneaking from one place to another, King T’Challa stood his ground and earned the name he deserved, the Black Panther.
6. He Is Not Vengeance Oriented
How was Batman born? Well, Batman was born when Bruce Wayne was just a child, and his parents were murdered in a dark alley. For him this was a chance at vengeance that propelled him to fight crime all his life, his vengeance is a fire that fuels his every move, a need that he simply cannot let go of because that is what his tragic loss made him into. Black Panther also suffered such a loss. His dad, T’Chaka, was killed on a revenge hunt. However, when it was time to avenge his father’s death on Captain America: Civil War, he chose to let it go and spared Zemo, a man who was responsible for the death of his father. He stood his ground and did not let vengeance consume him. Well, that is something that Batman would never do.
