So, you're a hero who's a fair way through your quest. You've slain fire-breathing dragons, or assassinated mob bosses, or torn apart an army base filled with hostile aliens. You've cut a swath through the land, slaughtering anything or anyone who gets in your way and spit in the face of impossible odds. You're well on your way to finishing the job. When you need a favor, anybody who knows who you are should be too grateful or too afraid to turn you down. But instead... "Go clean out my stables." "Go throw around some Cuccos." "Go collect some apples from my garden." "Go beat up this guy that's been hassling me." "Don't you know who I am? Where's my respect?" Of course, you've got no choice but to debase yourself and comply with this humiliating request, even though you've probably gone From Nobody to Nightmare and by rights you should just kill them and take what you need. Is a little empathy so hard to muster? Also, don't expect merchants to give you a discount or something because you're a known hero and benefactor. Hell, some will even try to charge you more because you're famous. An Ideal Hero will fetch cats from trees all day long, but then again they're probably either a Slave to PR or just plain have nothing better to do between beating the tar out of villains. Expect villains, rivals, and some civilians to act like Ungrateful Bastards in part because of this; in extreme cases they may say "Then Let Me Be Evil." The Glory Seeker hates this. Conversely, the Humble Hero will receive praise, but brushes it off saying, "Think Nothing of It" or "All a Part of the Job." Particularly nasty ones are Impossible Task. Contrast No Fame, No Wealth, No Service, where fame is recognised and is the only reason a character makes any headway. Often crosses with Hero with Bad Publicity. Contrast Famed In-Story, 100% Heroism Rating, and The Player Is the Most Important Resource. See Entitled Bastard, who usually delivers this. On the other hand, someone may have this attitude when they've actually done no more than the bare minimum. Granted, if he's a Jerkass making an effort to do something nice for a change, he may have exceeded expectations, but this still has shades of believing It's All About Me. See also Dogged Nice Guy. When this happens to the heroes over the course of multiple stories, the culprit is usually Status Quo Is God. In order to keep the setting and its characters consistent from beginning to end, or at least without huge changes, it's necessary for the characters other than the heroes (and often the heroes themselves) to behave much the same as when the series got started. Please restrict Real Life examples to people who have been Vindicated by History already. As Truth in Television as this is, it's normally too personal to be considered. |

Prey: Naru is a competent hunter and very skilled tracker even at the beginning of the film. However, only her brother indulges her desire to hunt since she's a woman, with the other male hunters disdainful toward her and her mom worried about this. She proves herself by the end of the film however by killing the Predator which kills all the male hunters, returning to her tribe with the reward of being made war chief. | |

Miu Iruma from Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony gets hit with this very frequently. She may indeed be a beautiful inventor, but more often than not, she does not get the respect she constantly demands from her classmates, being either ignored, put down, or even cowed into submission instead. On the other hand, given her vanity and lack of tact (most of the time, anyway), that her classmates would react this way is understandable. Funnily enough, if anyone gives her what she perceives to be genuine respect, she will feel very awkward. | |

Die Hard: No matter what adventures McClane may go on, by the start of the next film he'll be back to being a Jerkass with a miserable home life. Seriously, this is a man who has now single-handedly thwarted four major terrorist attacks on the country (well, only one was actually terrorism, the other three were robberies disguised as terrorist acts), but still McClane should seriously be invited to train Delta Force in urban combat and anti-terrorist tactics. The third film, Die Hard with a Vengeance, was the only one in the series to suggest McClane has achieved any level of fame from his actions, with various people scoffing at his media appearances. In real life, the passengers on United 93 are lauded as heroes, and they didn't survive their counterattack on their hijackers. If McClane was a real person, his face would have been added to the U.S. flag by now... Discussed at length in the fourth film, Live Free or Die Hard: |

In Ajax, the main character's anger is slightly more understandable relative to his culture where self-worth is based on publicly received respect. Odysseus wins Achilles' armor through persuasion, but Ajax, the greatest warrior on the Greek side, has reason to think he deserved it more. He goes on a rampage over this issue. | |

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance: The Scientist gets subjected to constant abuse and disrespect by the other Skeksis, who treat him as one step removed from an exiled outcast despite the fact that their collective ability to accomplish anything would be near nonexistent without his inventions and theories. It seems like he's finally on the verge of earning their respect when he invents the essence-draining process that keeps them all alive indefinitely, but no, they just keep bullying him until they drive him over the edge and into a violent mental breakdown in which he beats his Gruenak slaves to death out of pure rage. | |

In Flags of Our Fathers, a Real Life story of three men thought to have been involved with the raising of the flag on Mount Suribachi. Of the six flag-raisers depicted, only Ira Hayes is truly in it. Not interested in the least what respect that could bring, denies his involvement, but is later identified. Ira doesn't mind his unit calling him such things as Chief or Red, but it's after becoming a war hero that this starts. People he's meeting seem to only make comments solely on the fact he's Native American. Ira begins heavily drinking in order to cope with the entire situation nowadays. Angrily explaining an incident he started up outside a bar was because they wouldn't service him, the bartender claims it's because they "don't serve Indians". | |

In The Haunting (1999), Elinor spent 11 years of her life taking care of her invalid mother, only for her sister Jane to inherit their mom’s apartment. Both Jane and her husband immediately decide to sell it, leaving Elinor homeless. When Elinor protests, Jane says she may live with them... as long as she’ll babysit their bratty son. | |

In Courier's Mind: Rise of New Vegas, The Courier suffers from this early on, as he ends up doing a lot of tasks for the New California Republic, yet it takes a long time before he gets serious recognition for his work. This also tends to get him screwed out of payment until the later seasons. Inverted when The Courier arrives at The Great Khan camp. One of the guards abruptly tells The Courier he now has access to their special weapons as thanks for all the help he's given the tribe before. The Courier has no idea what she's talking about at first, until he remembers negotiating safe passage for several Khans cornered by the NCR back in Boulder City. He's shocked that they remember something like that, given how long it took him to achieve similar adoration from the NCR. |

Wreck-It Ralph: This is actually the driving force of the movie's plot. The titular Ralph is the villain of Fix-It Felix Jr., and thus is constantly snubbed by the NPCs of the game, the Nicelanders. But he's 100% a Punch-Clock Villain; he runs the role he was assigned, without which the entire game would get shut down. And after going thirty years without so much as a "thank you," he's pushed to the point of game-hopping (which is taboo) to try to earn the respect he wants. | |

Stand Still, Stay Silent: In Chapter 8, Lalli put himself in a Power-Strain Blackout induced Deep Sleep that would last two days to secure a camping site for the crew. During the Deep Sleep in question, an unforeseen problem causes the crew to move camping sites. Just before waking up, Lalli dreams of everyone being happy to see him back on his feet and praising him for his work. Reality has him wake up alone in the tank's dormitory, the tank very obviously in a different place than the location he found and everyone else outside ignoring him in favor of cooing over the team's newly acquired Cute Kitten. The person who brought Lalli his breakfast later ended up covered with the meal. | |

She says (contrary to what he might think) it's not his personality, it's his job; being a policeman attracts too much danger. With a bitter smile, John says he understands: nobody wants the police around, unless and until something bad happens, "then we're the Second Coming." | |

This is the Spot's modus operandi in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. After being treated as just another bad guy for Miles to beat up throughout the movie despite his potential for mass destruction and being remembered as that guy that got hit with a bagel in the previous movie, Spot becomes more incensed and unhinged, going across dimensions with an Alchemax to strengthen himself eventually becoming the Transhuman Abomination "Black Spot". | |

In Irreconcilable Differences, Albert and Lucy's relationship starts to fall apart partly because Lucy feels she isn't getting enough credit for the success of An American Romance. Lucy co-wrote the script and was so important to Albert's writing process that he could barely even start it without her, but Albert becomes a big name in Hollywood while Lucy remains unknown. | |

Director Krennic has this going on something fierce in Rogue One. He oversees the construction of the Death Star, the most powerful weapon in the galaxy — and Governor Tarkin takes control of it as soon as it's operational. He asks Darth Vader to put in a good word for him to the Emperor — and gets a (non-lethal) Force-choke. He then goes to Scarif to make sure the Death Star hasn't been compromised — and is ultimately killed by his own superweapon. | |

So many troubles in Greek myth got their start with somebody not paying proper respect to somebody else (a deity, somebody they knew, even a chance-met stranger) that it could almost be read as a collection of cautionary tales against this trope. The Odyssey in particular started because Odysseus didn't perform the necessary sacrifices to Poseidon for a safe voyage (granted, tormenting the guy for twenty years was a bit much). | |

In "The Bremen Town Musicians", the animals spent their youths working hard for their respective owners just to be shunned (donkey) or threatened to death when they became old and weak. The Rooster still could sing, but his mistress wanted to have him cooked for dinner anyway. | |

In the last video of the PONY.MOV series, SWAG.MOV, Applejack/Jappleack finally returns from the alternate dimension she was warped to during the events of the spinoff blog "Ask Jappleack", fresh from defeating an apple-shaped Eldritch Abomination and eager to tell the other ponies about her exploits. Everyone in the room, even Rainbow Dash who has just saved her own dimension from Discord by traveling into the past and changing history, just tells her to shut up and that nobody cares. | |

Brazilian voice actor Marco Antônio Costa ended up falling out with Disney due to an escalation of this. First, as he dubbed over Bail Organa in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, he discovered that he was recast as C-3PO. Then, in spite of recording the trailer for Tomorrowland was replaced for the eventual film. And ultimately, angered at Disney spending big bucks to have a YouTuber as a Celebrity Voice Actor in Finding Dory, when it was time for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, he asked a bigger salary (though he noted as slightly larger than his usual fee, and nowhere as big as what the YouTuber got) to return as Jack Sparrow, claiming the success of the movies gave him the clout to deserve this. Disney not only replaced Costa, but chose to blackball him from all future projects. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Regarding Jane Foster's motivation in Thor, her actress, Natalie Portman, explained that her theories about connecting dimensions have her being looked down by the scientific community. By the time of Love and Thunder, she's world-renowned for her contributions. In Captain America: Civil War, Scott Lang/Ant-Man gets extremely annoyed when Tony Stark has no idea who he is, considering Scott helped save the day in Ant-Man. (That said, Ant-Man is a relative newcomer to the superhero community at that point, so he's pretty small-time.) And, it carries over into Avengers: Endgame: when the team is having lunch in a dinner, some kids ask Professor Hulk if they get a picture with him. Scott obligingly takes the shot and then asks if they want one with him as well. They're like "no, we're good." Banner even tries to get them to until Scott just says for them to forget about it. (In fairness, Scott had just spent five years outside existence. Given the age of the children, it was a little unreasonable for Scott to expect them to remember him.) Also in Avengers: Endgame: This attitude is what reveals Thanos to be a Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist. When the people of the universe are not grateful to him for culling half all life to save the other half, he decides to destroy the entire universe and create a new one where people give him the respect he feels he deserves. In Thor: Love and Thunder, Zeus laments that mortals no longer fear or worship the gods as they once did, instead turning to superheroes. Completely ignoring this is the fault of the gods failing to fulfill their duty to protect the mortals, he decides the proper answer is sending his son Hercules to kill Thor and remind mortals why gods are to be feared. |

3 Doors Down's famous career-making single "Kryptonite" features a narrator who uses the character of Superman as an allegory for how he feels like someone in his life or perhaps the people in his life in general make him feel this way by taking everything he does for granted. The narrator points out that he works hard to do things that the person/people he is addressing want him to do, essentially becoming their Superman despite their lack of acknowledgement. He notes that he really doesn't mind the work, but it's the lack of appreciation that leaves him extremely frustrated. Still, he will always stand by the song's subject with all of his might. He also wonders if when he's doing well and being strong whether the person(s) will still be there for him, as Brad Arnold says: | |

Girl Genius: Gilgamesh Wulfenbach struggles with that a lot. He is a generally nice fellow, who tries hard to be even-handed and fair even though he's the heir of The Empire, and is surrounded by a lot psychotic badasses, including his father. The result is, no matter what he does, everyone but his father and his friends dismiss him and refuse to treat him like anything more than a kid. This does occasionally work to his advantage because nobody expects him to be as dangerous as he actually is (remember, his father Baron Wulfenbach, whom everybody else including the Other fears, strongly respects him and considers crossing him unwise). | |

Circa-2006, The Undertaker might have been a powerful, otherworldly demon mortician with a WrestleMania win streak in the double digits, who once led a demonic cult, nearly crucifying the Chairman's daughter, and frequently sending other wrestlers (including his own brother) to hell, but did that stop General Manager Theodore Long from utilizing him to attack and injure other wrestlers who had petty squabbles with Teddy? Nope. | |

Red vs. Blue: Agent Washington falls prey to this. Throughout the course of Reconstruction, Wash selflessly puts his life on the line, getting beaten, blown up, shot and incredibly annoyed by his team mates all in the name of bringing a corrupt military program to justice. For all his efforts, he gets arrested. For the lack of his team's efforts, they get brand new bases. In Recreation, he appears to pull a Face–Heel Turn, shooting Donut and Lopez in the course of trying to capture Epsilon; however, he feels it's his only route to escape prison until he and the Reds and Blues team up to stop the Meta; they then help him fake his death. After that, he mellows out a lot, but still struggles to get any respect. A time travel experience in Season 17 reveals that the Freelancers never gave him any respect, making him empathize much more with Donut's situation in the Reds and Blues. Church is by far the most competent out of the Reds and Blues (which is admittedly a low bar to clear) and the one who generally has to play the Only Sane Man and keep them on track, on top of Taking a Level in Badass each season following Reconstruction. However, while the Reds and Blues do like him, none of them respect him, and Tucker flat-out refuses to acknowledge him as a superior officer. It's justified, since Church also happens to be an egotistical Jerkass who insults them all on a regular basis, occasionally lets bodily harm come to the Blues if he feels like it, and has no respect for any of them. Donut. He's a legitimately competent soldier in spite of being something of a moron and remains loyal to the Reds and Blues, but they generally tend to treat him like crap, to the point of forgetting about him entirely after he died. Twice. He becomes increasingly bitter over this in the later seasons, and at one point notes that Wash - the guy who shot him - gets more respect than him. Inverted during The Chorus Trilogy. The Reds and Blues have become renowned throughout the galaxy as war heroes thanks to their exploits in previous season, and they frequently try to convince anyone who buys into the hype that they're actually incompetent morons who have no idea what they're doing and generally survive through luck or having a Freelancer agent backing them up. |

In any of the first three games, Phoenix is respected by almost NOBODY except his friends/assistants (and even then they may make fun of him), even though he's solved cases that were unsolved for years, and gotten EVERY SINGLE ONE of his clients a Not Guilty (except Matt Engarde, but he really was guilty so it was all good) in his entire short career. The prosecution (understandable), witnesses (also understandable, especially if they did it), the police, and even the judge respects every prosecutor in court (even the ones that whip him and insult him), and they never cease to tell Phoenix that the only reason he wins is because of luck or his old mentor helping him. This eventually reaches a head in the fourth game where this is one of the reasons Kristoph set Phoenix up to lose his badge; he thought Phoenix was beneath him and used the forged evidence to frame him. Ultimately averted for Phoenix in Dual Destinies, where he has been elevated to living legend in the legal world. | |

Forrest Gump: Lt. Dan wanted to die in combat, so naturally, he doesn't take living with amputated legs too well. And watching Forrest receive a Medal of Honor from the President himself sure didn't help. Forrest himself has been in so many historical events and done so much, from winning a Medal of Honor to being a millionaire tycoon, yet no one recognizes him ever and TV reports just call him "a gardener from Greenbow, Alabama". That being said, it really isn't like he goes around asking or demanding respect. He doesn't even seem to realize that he's being slighted in any way. |

Rats SMP: Around Day 10, the Chef of the Mansion, Cassandra, writes about being frustrated about how she spent seven years at culinary school training for her job, only to be hired by a family that doesn't appreciate her cookingnote with the family leaving the food to go cold, the Bratty Half-Pint son throwing green beans across the room at meals, food disappearing at night, etc., and only the other household staff respect her. She has considered quitting her job because of this and drowning her sorrows in melon juice she doesn't have. Apo finds this note and gets Bek and Scott to help him give her some presents and the melon juice she wanted, albeit with some jokes about how the rat protagonists are definitely not responsible for the food disappearances and not part of Cassandra's causes for grief. The rats' gifts end up causing Cassandra to stay and keep working at the Mansion. | |

In If the Emperor Had a Text-to-Speech Device, other Custodes have no respect for their Captain-General, even going as far as to call him Little Kitten. Until season finale they didn't even know who their Captain-General is, and even in second season, they treat him as competition at best. He's starting to get annoyed with this. Even the factions of the Custodes that aren't batshit Macho Camp don't treat him with great respect, only reluctantly coming along with Kitten on his quest to Mars when he asks them. And his position as a High Lord of Terra doesn't help him much when confronting people other than the Custodes either. | |

James Daley in That Championship Season works hard as a junior high school principal, but makes barely enough money to support his wife and five children, and the students at the school regularly scrawl graffiti on the walls insulting him. He is managing his former basketball teammate George Sitkowski's mayoral re-election campaign, but is distraught to discover that George is considering bringing in a new management team from Philadelphia to give the campaign a much-needed a shot in the arm. He has spent a large part of his adult life trying to prop up his alcoholic brother Tom, and has never been so much as thanked. Late in the play, he tries putting himself forward as a mayoral candidate instead of George as a way to get the respect he feels he deserves, but no-one is interested, and when he objects to the way he is treated by everyone, he is dismissed as a whiner. | |

Warhammer 40,000: The Imperial Guard make up the vast bulk of the Imperium's war machine and are responsible for most of its defenses and conquests; it's said that if the Space Marines are the tip of the spear of the Imperium, then the Imperial Guard are the rest of the spear head, the spear shaft, and the guy holding the spear. But both in- and out-of-universe they are forever forgotten and pushed aside by the Space Marines. The Fall of Medusa V global campaign of 2006 provides a meta example. The results of various worldwide tournaments were submitted to determine the fate of the planet Medusa V. The Space Marines and Imperial Guard lost a good majority of their battles; the former due to Space Marines being the usual go-to army for novice players, and the latter because they were consistently bottom-tier. However, the Space Marines were (and still are) far and away the most popular army of the game, and seeing a Space Marine defeat as a serious setback to the brand's image, Games Workshop declared that even though the Space Marines and Imperial Guard lost the majority of their battles, they were still the canon winners of the campaign on moral grounds note They claim that the Space Marines won the space battles, and while the planet was lost to heresy, the combined Imperials managed to evacuate most of the civilian population before leaving. Understandably, the players of the other factions were less than pleased. In the backstory, Perturabo suffered heavily from this, due to him and his legion being typecast as siege experts. They would get assigned either brutal meat-grinder sieges or garrison duty, with the latter featuring such madness as ten Iron Warriors guarding a planet with a population of millions — with the completion of a planetary campaign rarely heralding anything other than assignment to another meat-grinder. This was so prevalent that prior to the Drop Site Massacre, traitor marines constructing fortifications for Horus' forces were heard asking why the Iron Warriors weren't doing the work. This is particularly grim given that the Emperor's Children, another Space Marine Legion, were given special honours (such as being permitted to wear the Emperor's aquila on their breastplates, something no other Legion was allowed to do) because Fulgrim gave an impressive speech once. |

The third film, Die Hard with a Vengeance, was the only one in the series to suggest McClane has achieved any level of fame from his actions, with various people scoffing at his media appearances. In real life, the passengers on United 93 are lauded as heroes, and they didn't survive their counterattack on their hijackers. If McClane was a real person, his face would have been added to the U.S. flag by now... | |

In Batman vs. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the Joker is making an announcement over the Arkham Assylum intercom after the inmates take over, playing up the role as the new head orderly. He then calls to "Nurse Harley" to continue with his latest plan, only for Harley to stand there and glare at him until he finally relents and calls her "Doctor Quinzel". | |

Even after Mulan has single-handedly wiped out the entire Huns army and saved all of China, she loses the trust she's earned from her former allies simply because they find out she's really a woman. Chi-Fu even orders her to be executed, but Shang spares Mulan in return for saving his life priorly. It takes her doing it again to regain their trust, and even so, Chi-Fu is still deeming her worthless. | |

In Thor: Love and Thunder, Zeus laments that mortals no longer fear or worship the gods as they once did, instead turning to superheroes. Completely ignoring this is the fault of the gods failing to fulfill their duty to protect the mortals, he decides the proper answer is sending his son Hercules to kill Thor and remind mortals why gods are to be feared. | |

Downplayed in Klaus (2019). Jesper is initially quite miffed to see the children praising Klaus and not giving him any credit for delivering the toys Klaus makes. However, before he's even done listening to the montage, he becomes amused by the supernatural elements, and bonds with Klaus by describing them to him. | |

In Dino Attack RPG, Andrew "Pyro" Jackson felt this way during the Final Battle. After helping the Dino Attack Team retake LEGO Island and Gold City, he is rewarded by his teammates telling him to shut up and put some clothes on. Given that he was running around in his underwear and shouting loudly into the radio, while his daughter was posing as him so no one recognized him as agent Pyro, the lack of respect was justified, though. | |

Ace Attorney: In any of the first three games, Phoenix is respected by almost NOBODY except his friends/assistants (and even then they may make fun of him), even though he's solved cases that were unsolved for years, and gotten EVERY SINGLE ONE of his clients a Not Guilty (except Matt Engarde, but he really was guilty so it was all good) in his entire short career. The prosecution (understandable), witnesses (also understandable, especially if they did it), the police, and even the judge respects every prosecutor in court (even the ones that whip him and insult him), and they never cease to tell Phoenix that the only reason he wins is because of luck or his old mentor helping him. This eventually reaches a head in the fourth game where this is one of the reasons Kristoph set Phoenix up to lose his badge; he thought Phoenix was beneath him and used the forged evidence to frame him. Ultimately averted for Phoenix in Dual Destinies, where he has been elevated to living legend in the legal world. This seems to have been passed onto Apollo Justice as well since almost everyone seems to put him down for being a loud rookie with two "horns"/spikes on his hair. Edgeworth himself, who has been praised by many people in game, got roughly the same treatment when he played for the Defense (he even wondered if there was a "Kick Me" sign on his side of the court). And in his own spin-offs all the witnesses and potential suspects go out of their way to be unhelpful as possible and Edgeworth's sidekick, Kay, seems to try and be annoying as possible to Edgeworth in public. It's even worse in the sequel, when, despite DISMANTLING A CRIME SYNDICATE that had been evading police for 10 years over the course of TWO DAYS a mere two weeks earlier, Edgeworth spends the entire game dealing with the Prosecutorial Investigation Committee, which seems determined to get his badge revoked so that he can be replaced with a 17-year-old who resident idiot Larry Butz considers stupid. Somewhat justified though because said 17-year-old is the son of the Chair of the PIC and former Chief Prosecutor, who hates Edgeworth's guts and is directly responsible for the whole PIC mess. Also in the second Edgeworth game, we have "President Di-Jun Huang", who is not the real Huang, but his Body Double who had the real one assassinated over 10 years prior and took his place. His reason for doing this was that he was sick of putting himself in danger all the time and getting no recognition for it. Ironically, despite dealing with a literal Witch Court, Phoenix actually does a lot better in Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney after winning his first witch trial (he was severely mocked in the first). At the beginning of the second one, the Judge and the prosecutor acknowledge his skill out loud, as he'd, well, gotten basically the only Not Guilty verdict in the history of Witch Court. They don't go easy on him, but they admit that he knows what he's doing, which is more than he ever got in real court. |

In the beginning of The LEGO Batman Movie, The Joker hijacks a cargo plane full of explosives as phase one of his evil plan. However, the pilot isn't too upset, because, "[Batman] always stops [Joker]." much to Joker's annoyance. This turns out to be a plot point; Joker's furious that Batman doesn't see him as his greatest nemesis, but as "Some guy I fight." | |

Solid jj: "The Justice League Remembers Hawkman Exists" is this for Hawkman, as the Leaguers start to realize there's not a lot of benefit to having him on the roster: he can fly, he swings a mace (which murders people), he very slowly reincarnates after being killed in battle... and that's about it. Batman even points out that while Aquaman's "sucking" is fun and part of his personal brand, Hawkman is just kind of pathetic. After Hawkman pleads for tolerance and respect, they all gain a newfound appreciation for Aquaman instead. Aquaman in "Classic Aquaman" takes umbrage with how Batman treats him, taking him away from his heroism underseas to unclog a toilet in the Hall of Justice. Aquaman even points out that he's the king of Atlantis — indeed, he's shown as a noble diplomat and warrior in the beginning — and yet gets reduced to such a menial task on land while the rest of the Justice League go on their separate missions. Batman tries to defend himself by pointing out it's because they tend to just leave Aquaman out of the missions that he decided to call him in for this one. |
