  • Superman calls on Batman to help him battle the organized crime family known as Intergang.

    Lex Luthor. Super genius. Unable to connect the idea that Kryptonite radiation might cause cancer. Also foiled by glasses, slouching, and his own hubris.

    • @HollowGolem
      @HollowGolem Před 9 měsíci +44

      I assume that's the consistent "moral lesson" of Luthor. It doesn't matter how smart you are, or think you are, arrogance makes you say and do profoundly stupid things. There are plenty of credentialized scientists in the real world who have said some really dumb shit that underscore this.

    I love that Clark Kent is obviously built like a professional wrestler, absolutely fucking massive and Lex Luthor is just like " this freaking nerd can't possibly be Superman -- look at him, he's a geek, he's so puny and small!
    He can't POSSIBLY be Superman!"

      As brilliant as Lex is, I always chalked that up to him being such a rampant narcissist that when it comes to his vanity he can't see past his own nose or entertain logic.

  • @nathanhall9345
    @nathanhall9345 Před 9 měsíci +21

    It's so fun to see the artistry shine through the weird external circumstances. Realistically, this team-up should have been ABOUT the ring and some threat to Superman and his identity. It shouldn't have been the B-plot in an ongoing Superman story.
    But that moment, of Batman willingly giving him the ring and then Superman giving it back to him as a symbol of his trust. And then that coming back later with Batman looking at it and debating getting rid of it once Superman dies?
    That's all just great writing.

    I feel like if you guys are on the verge of redoing Knightfall, it’s probably for the best if you just knock out as many post-crisis Bruce Wayne Batman stories as you can. Because once Azrael shows up, the tides gonna turn and people are really going to miss Bruce. Especially since he’s not exactly acting like himself in the current continuity anymore

    @38:05: Ummm... Ben? The woman in question did not identify herself when she attacked Superman. as far as I'm aware. I know comic book dialogue can be corny at times, but did she shout "MY NAME IS SO-AND-SO AND YOU'RE SUPERMAN AND I'M GOING TO SHOW THE WORLD RIGHT NOW!" as far as that scene was explained. Maybe you assumed that she did? I hope you're not suggesting Superman has the ability to glean all of the personal information about every rando he meets simply by being within their presence for a moment or two, like his super-Kryptonian brain has some kind of special ability to access the internet via wi-fi or something?
