Despite not having any superpowers, mystical or otherwise, Batman actually has a perfect way to fight magical threats. Magic can give many DC superheroes trouble, with Superman being very weak to it in particular. But despite being much weaker than Superman, or perhaps because of it, Batman has a bit less trouble with it.

Batman is well known for being prepared to face any conceivable threat that he may encounter. This can manifest in having specific objects or plans of action to deal with certain enemies (or even allies as revealed in the iconic storyline JLA: Tower of Babel). But mostly this is due to Batman’s intense level of training. As a young man, Bruce traveled around the world learning many skills from various masters. This of course includes combat abilities like martial arts, but it also includes more subtle skills like disguise and detective work.

In their fight, he realizes that demons are just another type of criminal and he can apply the knowledge he uses to fight normal criminals to fighting them as well. While he does need to rely on Zatanna and her father to defeat the demon, he is able to use his combat knowledge to effectively fight it for a time.

The way Bruce learns to deal with magical threats is rather different from most
