Quote: Even Superman has to recharge sometime, he's solar powered remember. So I wouldn't entirely agree that he can't be worn out, or drain his resources. It might take a while yes. But how long can Clark keep up with the vigilance bordering on paranoia? Bats pretty much had practiced that kind of mindset ever since he was 8-10.
Everything I've read recently shows that Superman is getting more powerful due to his constant exposure to Earth's Sun. This seems to have accelerated since his "death" at the hands of Doomsday. Batman wouldn't be able to wear down Superman and having been the victim of a similar tactic at the hands of Bane it would be highly unlikely he would resort to such a tactic.
Relatively recent events in Justice League of America (I no longer have direct access to the DC Archives or I would pull up the issue number) revealed that Batman keeps extensive files on how to eliminate every hero and villain on Earth. The first he created and works most often on is Superman. Unless Superman gets the drop its unlikely that he would defeat Batman.
