"Racist, sexist trolling is racist & sexist."
What super hero is manliest.
As kids we all had that one superhero we looked up to or thought was pure awsomeness. The questoin is in your opinion what superhero best embodies what it means to be a man to you and why. You may think superheros are kids stuff but they're a window into what we admire most in people.

Obviously MANman. With the strength of a MAN, the speed of a MAN, and the ability to talk LIKE A MAN.

Barry Allen as the Flash is the manliest superhero in my opinion. He has dealt with tragic loss of family and even sacrificed his life for humanity and was dead for 23 years in the comics.

Batman is the man. He has his tragic flaw, which drives everything he does. He bravely pushes forward into any situation that demands him. He develops and uses all his resources to live the life he chooses according to crafted principles. He ferociously protects life. He has ridiculous physical skills. He can handle himself in nearly any situation. He is an action hero with an exotic and mysterious spiritual past. Let's face it: he drives the most awesome car, boat, plane, etc., lives in a very amazing house and has money to burn. Let's not forget that he is even a graphic designer and industrial designer too with the kind of talent to put together an identity that is nearly unmatched by anyone.
He does what he needs and wants to do independently, and also enjoys the friendly support of a few sincere and loyal people. He is socially busy with his company philanthropic projects, and his dating life. He constantly seeks to develop his own best qualities.

Batman. Absolutely. He had no superpower of any kind, other than cunning and clever engineering.

Resplendant in an ill fitting cape and encumbered by a side kick even more nerdish than himself it would be difficult to conceive of a less inspiring "super hero".

Seen the last few Superman flicks? He spent more time on his back being saved by mortals than he did leaping tall buildings at a single bound.

Eh. The campy Adam West version of Batman was a parody. Chris Nolan's and Frank Miller's versions of Batman are much closer to the original ... and much manlier than the fruity 1960's show.

No matter how he may try and upgrade his image to the simple, no matter how he may try to distance himself from the nerdish Robin, to those who knew him as he was he'll never be anything more than a chump.
