Anyone comparing Batman’s and Question’s capabilities as detectives should remember Batman has Wayne Industries billions at his disposal, whereas unless he’s collaborating with the League or something Question is pretty much a dude. Though I should also mention I don’t think either of them pay taxes
Batman is more focussed on single objectives. The question sees everything as a linked conspiracy and therefore oftentimes runs into dead ends when he connects things that aren't connected
If this was a Table Top Role Playing game like Dungeons and Dragons the "Question" might be the better single Character Class of "Detective" . Batman would be the better multi class and Gestalt build including classes like "Billionaire" ,"Detective" ,"Martial Artist " ,Gadgeteer" ,"Tactician"
It's important to note that in most Question stories, Vic Sage is a pretty popular/ famous news reporter in Hub city. Don't get me wrong, Batman dwarfs his wealth pretty easily. But this is all to say that Id say the Question is closer to upper middle class in terms of resources. So while he doesn't have a super computer or a million dollar lab, he does have better access to resources than the average person I would say. He must be at least a little rich to be able to afford the gas compound he uses for his mask regularly.
What they didn't mention is that in DC Rebirth Vic Sage came back to life, became The Question again, had a heartfelt reunion with Reneé Montoya (who still has the Question persona too), was part of an event series called Event Leviathan, became a member of a secret organisation called Checkmate & had a DC Blacklabel miniseries called The Many Deaths of Vic Sage, which implies that Hub City is a literal evil entity & that no matter how many times Vic died & no matter which period such as the western or the 40's, Vic was meant to be its faceless protector.
Batman's detective skills always struck me as a bit of an informed attribute. I realise for dramatic purposes we have been spared the countless hours of him pouring over case files, but it really seems to me that the answers tend to either fall into his lap without much effort or he makes absurd leaps in logic that only turn out to be true by sheer luck.
I mean writing satisfying detective stories is kind of hard. I find it more annoying when Batman can't figure out obvious things to help keep some tension.
@@extonjonas6820 exactly. If you're going to write a story about a detective, maybe enlist some help from some highly intelligent sources to keep their intellect believable
...Congrats to whoever wrote the content! sometimes it gets so literary that reminds me to the old 70´s script writing of Denny O´Neall! Keep writing! 🙂
The 80s comic run of the question actually had an issue where they faced each other, while it’s not really high stakes or a big event it’s still a pretty good issue.
Picking Jeffery Combs as the voice of question was a stroke of genius. Question goes places Batman won't even go to. That gives him a advantage and liability at the same time. Put trying to murder Lex Luthor with a neck tie to avoid a time loop was just so awesome for second or two .
To be fair Rorschach is actually based on the question, when watchmen was being written they originally wanted to use the charleton comic characters that dc had just acquired ( like peacemaker, blue beetle, and of course the question) but dc prevented them from doing so because they thought using them in a story like watchmen would make it harder for them to use in the main continuity down the line, so the comedian replaced peacemaker, blue beetle became nite owl, and Rorschach took the questions place.
Batman is highly logical, while Question as a conspiracy theorist, never rules out the illogical. This means if given a logical case to solve, they may both be equally capable, while Batman edges Question out with tech, however if given a case where things are just a bit more far fetched, Question would likely land at the solution from sheer out of the box thinking before Batman works through the logical clues.
Batman was trained by the league of shadows. That and his childhood trauma put him shoulders over others. That being said, Question is probably someone that Batman would go to for a an additional opinion on a matter. Batman also has his tine occupied with matters such as Gotham, the League, the bat family, his Wayne persona and Wayne Industries.
Batman is a better detective. Worlds greatest, in fact. But writers treat him like just a superhero. And he lost a lot of opportunities to portray his detective skills when oracle came along. I really liked this one green arrow comic where batman cameod. He had to explain to arrow that he doesnt just beat people up - patrolling and fighting take like 10 percent of his time. The rest is focused on research, detective work, etc.
Rorschach actually was actually inspired by him. The question was part of a batch of characters from Charlton comics that served as inspiration for many comic characters. Such as Ted Kord's Blue Beetle inspiring Owlman, Captain Atom inspiring Dr. Manhattan, and Peacemaker inspiring The comedian, as well as a few others but i cant remember them now
Batman solve cases with the need of using his tools. Bat smart computers, scanners, gadgets and so on. While Questions man solve cases by just using his note book, a white board, his deduction skills and so on. Pretty old fashioned. Question man is a pretty good detective or even better because he has a good imagination that does think out of the box.
Only as good as Sandman, Mr A, Rorschach, and the Shadow...of course Bats...I think Q's deep questioning is what makes him better than Bats...of course there is Ralph Dibney too
Did DC take Inspiration of The Blank from Dick Tracy to Create The Question ? Cause he looks like both The Blank and Dick Tracy, he's a Faceless Man like The Blank but he's also a Detective like Dick Tracy
I'm sure Batman has a contingency plan should he ever go Rouge or worse. I wouldn't mind following the Question if it meant fighting for truth, justice and a better tomorrow.
This is awesome. I love that you guys are giving love to other characters and not just Batman and the Joker. You've done Lobo before but when are you guys going to Orion, Mr Terrific, Fabian Cortez, Shatterstar and Strong Guy. These are all characters I'm working on cocktails for, so it's cool to see other people interested in the same folks as me. @cocktailsancharacters
Batman, but only because he had unlimited funds for better toys. Even Batman himself would turn complicated cases over to The Question (especially if the connections between events were extremely complicated and required a viewing the information in a highly unlikely way - so far out of the box that the box may as well be on the moon). Watch the Cadmus arc in JLU, part of the DCAU for one such example.
Honestly, I think the DCAU version of him is the best. Just some weird conspiracy theorist nutjob. No other tricks. Just a dude who likes searching for the truth. No crazy gadgets, powers, or tragic backstory. Just a guy who spent too much time on the internet and slightly on the spectrum.
@@thesenate4815 it’s a fact in the dc world clown. When batman died & they asked who was best detective it was tim drake. I’m cool with being a fanboy for something i’ve been supporting for over 35 years clown it better than being a normie
@@thesenate4815 i’ve probably been a batman fan longer then you been alive. I don’t need your permission to like someone, I like who I like so get lost clown. You normies need to know your place. I’ve been reading & collecting batman movies before their was ever a movie( minus adam west but I wasn’t alive in the 60’s) so sorry clown I like whoever I want & their is a reason why batman was the first superhero to ever make a billion dollars. Batman rules kid & you’re just mad but you’re just a normie so your opinion doesn’t matter

They both pay taxes
As Joker said I’m crazy enough to take on Batman but not the IRS

So what your saying is, there are so many Questions?
@@gavinboyer4634 Many questions, but not enough answers...

That's why I laugh when they refer to him as great detective.
@@LarryBonson And that’s why I laugh when people like you say stupid shit like that
Just because Batman is one of the most intelligent characters in the DC universe doesn't mean his writers always are 😂

He's definitely a better journalist than everyone in the industry for the last 30 years.
If DC were smart they would use this character in murder mystery movies and cash in on the knives out genre....
Oh yeah definitely
You know, everytime I hear The Question’s voice, I keep thinking TFP Ratchet. The fact Jeffery Combs voices both these guys is incredible.
Omigosh you just blew my mind 🤯
great character voiced by a great actor! ( Jeffrey Combs)
The Question from the 80's was interesting. He was basically a mixed martial artist who liked to fight as well as investigate.
I love this character, I'd love a dark graphic novel story based on him
It is time to see the Question in Live Action Movie or a Live Action TV Show 🙂🥰🙂.
If its DC's The question then no... if its AceVane YES.
Lmao my dad watches those videos
Yes definitely hilarious
😂😂😂 ace version is hilarious
Yo😂
Facts... love AceVane
...Congrats to whoever wrote the content! sometimes it gets so literary that reminds me to the old 70´s script writing of Denny O´Neall! Keep writing! 🙂
He is all time favourite!!!
Can’t see this guy without thinking of ace vanes’ skits
I prefer to think of AV's as the REAL The Question
😂 me either
The question vs the riddler.

Damn, I didn't know Question had hands.
Sherlock Holmes himself is already a superior detective to Batman.
As is Detective Chimp!
@@ieatsand9259
Not to mention Detective Conan.
Go read Dennis O’neils run, RIGHT NOW!
Naw I'll stick with ditko.
One of my favorite DC characters

Finally someone said it
Love this character
Any chance that he's related to Rorschach?!

Such as Ted Kord's Blue Beetle inspiring Owlman, Captain Atom inspiring Dr. Manhattan, and Peacemaker inspiring The comedian, as well as a few others but i cant remember them now
According to one of The Question's issues (iirc it was Green Arrow crossover), "Rorschach sucks"
I want to see this guy in live action.
I want to give a shout out to the narrator, great voice for the topic
Bullshit. It's an obvious and unsophisticated AI. Stop shilling your product.
Batman solve cases with the need of using his tools. Bat smart computers, scanners, gadgets and so on.
While Questions man solve cases by just using his note book, a white board, his deduction skills and so on. Pretty old fashioned.
Question man is a pretty good detective or even better because he has a good imagination that does think out of the box.
This guy is cool
Amazing video of DC the question pretty awesome and the question need his own movie or tv series or cartoon too,fantastic job Marvelous videos.
I still can't believe that the girl scouts are behind the crop circles
Bro ima keep saying it, we need a Question movie. I bet it would be so good, and could be profitable off of the Batman universe
I would like to see question get his own movie.
Though he can procreate the real secret of the question is.......... It's shaped like a?
I wasn't paying attention. Does he have journalism skills?
Yes, his secret identity Vic sage is an investigative reporter.
Bro was this written by an AI?
Only as good as Sandman, Mr A, Rorschach, and the Shadow...of course Bats...I think Q's deep questioning is what makes him better than Bats...of course there is Ralph Dibney too
8:50 What about Huntress?
Did DC take Inspiration of The Blank from Dick Tracy to Create The Question ? Cause he looks like both The Blank and Dick Tracy, he's a Faceless Man like The Blank but he's also a Detective like Dick Tracy
thats definitely a possibility
Imagine a Batman, Question and Constantine team up! 😂
"Question the answer"
The only Question is Vic Sage.
I'm sure Batman has a contingency plan should he ever go Rouge or worse. I wouldn't mind following the Question if it meant fighting for truth, justice and a better tomorrow.
Anyone here have anymore information about the cards that the question carries around?
I always thought he’s face was burnt
This makes me want to watch acevane the question compilation 😂😂 if you know you know
I would like subscribe and support this channel but the soulless A.I. narration changed my mind
They don’t call Batman “the world’s greatest detective” for no reason!
Pretty sure that title goes to Detective Chimp.
@@gavinboyer4634 No, but they both are in secret club for best detectives of setting
Time travel
Batman has already suggested Question is a better detective than him. No debate there.
Also, the A.I voice in this channel is too obvious 😢
So he's a human algorithm 😂

Question vs Batman?
Bat
Batman, but only because he had unlimited funds for better toys.

Bats would crush him with his bank wallet
Voice Ai?
This sounds like AI
I agree, instantly unwatchable
Question: what are those plastic tips on shoe laces called? All Question fans know the answer.
Their true use is sinister
Huntress 😏😏😋😋
He is cool
What’s the question
No he is not. With that being said he’s top 5. Batman is the WORLD’S GREATEST DETECTIVE. It’s literally his nickname.
No batman is not.
Detective chimp, that is a character who literally has detective in his name.
Batman of course
Everuone else is dumb when around him
Isn’t the other plastic dude up there w Batman as a detective?Can’t remember his name. His wife was killed.
Elongated Man! 💪
Honestly, I think the DCAU version of him is the best. Just some weird conspiracy theorist nutjob. No other tricks. Just a dude who likes searching for the truth. No crazy gadgets, powers, or tragic backstory. Just a guy who spent too much time on the internet and slightly on the spectrum.
Are you sure this is a real guy?

Just a mask
