  • Geek answer: Superman is Kryptonian and not likely to be susceptible to the same diseases humans are, so he probably can't get the common cold. He could get some other disease, though. Batman is always in top fighting form, but he has gotten sick in the past. Coldeze would do nothing for Superman, but would probably help Batman. Real answer: I hope Superman can't get colds- imagine how dangerous his sneezes would be!
  • Batman is human, so I suspect he's as vunerable as me & you...but he probably bathes in OJ to help that. Like darthson said, Kryonians probably don't get earth colds.
  • Batman did at least once. I remember because Alfred made him chicken soup, and later Batman smashed the jar of soup on Mr. Freeze.
  • Superman has a super immune system and so is immune to disease. If a kryptonian pathogen was brought to earth it could become a super pathogen and affect him. This actually happened in one story, but Superman was exposed to it as a child, and it only affects adults. So Superman became immune to the only surviving disease that could affect him. Batman is human and can get sick, but he probobly has a stronger immune system than most people because of his physical fitness and plenty of exercise.
