Superman/Batman (Comic Book) | comment |
Superman/Batman was a monthly series published by DC Comics featuring team-ups of the "World's Finest Duo". The series explored the relationship between the two heroes, featuring a unique dual-narrator approach where both Superman and Batman simultaneously narrated the story with their thoughts. The series is also notable for finalising the return to Superman and Batman to being good friends which had been developing since John Byrne's The Man of Steel series initially rebooted the two as having a respectful, but contentious relationship due to contrasting ideals. | |

Power Creep, Power Seep | |
Superman/Batman (Comic Book) / int_14dfb81 | comment |
Power Creep, Power Seep: Happens sometimes as the two contribute equally to battles. In one case, they were attacked by Hawkman and Captain Marvel. Hawkman and Batman start fighting, as do Marvel and Supes. Then Batman and Superman do a move they call "castling," in which they throw their opponents off balance by rapidly switching who they're fighting. This mean it was actually part of their plan for Batman to fight Captain Marvel, who is roughly as powerful as Superman without a Kryptonite-like weakness. (And the move starts with Superman throwing Marvel at Batman, who then kicks Marvel into a mountain. How this impact with a Flying Brick did not shatter every bone in Batman's body is never explained.) | |

Godiva Hair: Lampshaded somewhat: one of the enemies of The Maximums(an Ultimates parody that Batman and Superman face) is a parody of Enchantress named Godiva and she is depicted as nude except for her ridiculously long hair, which manages to keep her bits covered, even when she's fighting. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Superman/Batman (Comic Book) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: In Public Enemies, Lex Luthor introduces in Post-Crisis continuity the alien warsuit which he built in Luthor Unleashed, reimagined as an armor forged in the pits of Apokolips. The Superman-Batman robot built by the heroic Toyman is a nod to the Composite Superman, a villain who first appeared in Worlds Finest 1941 issue #142. The ending of "Absolute Power" is similar to the ending of Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?. After the Ripple Effect ends, Future!Superman looks like Jordan Elliot. Lois, "Jordan" and Jonathan are apparantly living on the Kent Farm in this version. | |

Kick the Dog: In "The Supergirl from Krypton", Superman blames Batman and Wonder Woman for Kara getting kidnapped by Darkseid when she should have remained in Metropolis with him. Wonder Woman reminds them her sisters nearly sacrificed herself to protect her. Then Superman said if it was Jason Todd or Donna Troy, they wouldn't even be arguing about this. Batman tells him Kara isn't dead. The three of them got quiet. Superman realized he crossed the line mentioning Jason and Donna. Near the end of the story arc, he apologizes for it. Ironically, a year later both Jason and Donna came back. | |

Keep Circulating the Tapes: Discussed In-Universe. In With a Vengeance Joker demands to know why Superman and Batman don't remember the events of the Emperor Joker crossover from several years earlier. Mxyzptlk explains that he's blocking everyone's memories — then also adds that the issues haven't been collected yet. Ironically — and probably because of fan demand — that arc was collected shortly afterwards. | |

Continuity Nod: In an early issue, Superman asks Batman if he's seen anything of the villain Magpie lately. Magpie was the villain they fought in The Man of Steel #3, their first meeting in Post-Crisis continuity. Public Enemies opens right after the events of Batman: Hush, which Loeb had just finished writing at the time. As such, events in that storyline are mentioned in passing both here and throughout his other arcs. There are also additional nods back to Loeb's two-year stint on Superman, culminating in With a Vengeance which as noted earlier, is ultimately a sequel to Emperor Joker. | |

Reverse Cerebus Syndrome: The first two arcs were setting the book up to be a fairly serious, event-heavy series, featuring pivotal events like the ousting of Luthor and the reintroduction of Supergirl. After that point, the series began to embrace its Silver Age roots, moving into one-and-done stories with crazy ideas and high-concept adventures largely confined to itself. | |

What You Are in the Dark: With Batman as the tempter. Superman was pushed to his limit after Luthor as the president placed a bounty on his head and trashed his and Batman's proteges. He was even ready to fry Luthor for what he has done. Batman told Superman that he won't stop him and would even help make it look like an accident or "better yet, as if he'd vanished without a trace." Needless to say, Superman didn't go through with it. | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business | |
Superman/Batman (Comic Book) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: During a fight against Mongul and Solomon Grundy in Public Enemies, Supes and Bats realize both villains are acting differently. The normally boastful Mongul is silent and as an interstellar conqueror, Luthor's bounty should mean nothing to him. Likewise, the normally bestial Grundy has become almost refined and articulate. Our heroes deduce that a telepath is controlling the pair and the other attacking villains. Happens again in The Supergirl from Krypton. During the fight against the Doomsday clones, Batman notes that something's wrong. Before Luthor handed the beastie over to Darkseid, Doomsday had finally displayed some degree of sentience — yet the clones are almost mindless and bestial. He realizes that the cloned army is imperfect and easily destroyable. This in turn gives way to the realization that the clones were merely a distraction while Darkseid's agents nabbed Kara. Loeb goes for the hat trick in With a Vengeance when the Atomic Skull breaks into Wayne Enterprises. Bats knows that such brazen snatch and grab is not the Skull's MO. Combined with the Skull's improved armor, he correctly deduces that the Skull is working for Lex Luthor and that Luthor survived the events of Public Enemies. During the "Torment" story arc, Batman (who has fought against a seductress like Poison Ivy on regular basis) succumbs to Bekka's charms and is quite disturbed at having fallen in love with her and being willing to throw it all away to be with her. | |

All Just a Dream | |
Superman/Batman (Comic Book) / int_ea85d6ea | comment |
All Just a Dream: The Mash-Up arc. Unfortunately, even if it's only a dream, the stakes are no less great than usual, given the force behind it is Dr. Destiny. At the end, Superman comments on how real it looked from the inside, and Batman tells him that's exactly why Destiny is so terrifyingly dangerous - he makes you believe. | |

Pet the Dog: While manipulating the events surrounding Superman and Batman becoming their adoptive sons, the Legion Super-Villains maintained Superman's marriage to his wife Lois Lane, feeling it was appropriate for him and something better left untouched, while also arranging for Batman to have a relationship with Catwoman's civilian identity Selina Kyle, the closest thing Batman has ever had to a stable Love Interest. | |
