I have no idea. I didn't see Superman Kills A Guy and have no interest in Superman and Batman Try To Kill Each Other. Just saying that "no kill no guns" hasn't really been an issue for the movies so far.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What I was saying is that the Batman we've been shown isn't the Batman the article was about. He is basically no kill no guns, and if the author's point is that he'd let Superman die as collateral damage then it's a pretty weak plan.

Would Wonder Woman v. Hulk be an interesting fight? Can they mano a mano?

The Hulk is always as strong or as weak as the plot calls for.

But is Diana?
"Some" folks are talking like once the Avengers kryptonite out Superman, the Hulk can just plow through the rest of the JLA.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
DC characters have generally had wider scope/bigger-scaled powers, at least at the top tiers of heroes. If Diana can take on Superman or Orion in hand-to-hand combat (and she can), I'd think she can handle anything the Hulk can throw her way on strength and martial training alone. That's before you factor in things like flight, the magic lasso, and her more ephemeral gifts from the gods that would probably let her talk him down from a fight.
I'd say that the Martian Manhunter and the Green Lantern du jour can also bring enough raw force to bear to hold their own against the Hulk, and both have far more versatile power sets than he.

That was basically my thinking--she doesn't have the range of powers Supes has accumulated over the years, but she can take Kryptonian beating while dishing out Themyisciran whupass, and that's gotta count for some shit. I feel like some places (called IO9) are operating under 100% "We've got a Hulk" infallibility. Thanks for nothing, Joss. Well, thanks for some stuff, anyway.
