You can be supremely intelligent OR supremely physically able. It just makes it boring if you're awesome at EVERYTHING. Villains can get away with it because they're supposed to be threats that the heroes can overcome after struggling through, not something that somebody can go "I don't care that you're enhanced past the point of a peak human, I'm just as physically strong as you because I'm motherfucking Batman." I can buy Slade being that strong and fast with his build because he's got superpowers, but Wayne, who is for all intents and purposes "just" human? That's pushing it for me. Buuuuut that's comics for you, I guess.<br/><br/><br/>Weeeelll, that depends on the writer, again. Wolverine has withstood tasers and whatnot before - since, for example, losing consciousness could be considered in some comics as a physical reaction that the healing factor can prevent - with only the basic lock up, but in other runs he's been taken out by a Cattle Prod. Sooooo...comics. *waves hands*<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>That's why the Joker is considerably the best villain of them all. If Batman is all that and more but has no killing as a rule, the Joker knows how to test that in the most chaotic way possible. Batman can be incredibly smart, but that doesn't save everyone from unpredictably.
