After the bonding exercise with the slide projector went awry, Bats and Supe fell out once more.

The Batarang made of Kryptonite may have seemed like a good idea, but Batman didn’t consider one possibility: what if he missed? He’s standing on the wing of an airplane, after all. Oh crap I dropped it. Now he’s going to kick my ass. It would have been smarter to coat the plane with a thin layer of Kryptonite and just follow Superman around the sky, taunting him. Maybe even playing that La Cucharacha horn sound for grins.

For that matter, Superman might have been more careful; if your Arch-Foe is on the loose again, you might use your super powers to blast him out of the sky before he gets close. And it’s odd how Superman’s powers don’t extend to long-range Kryptonite detection, which would certainly come in handy. Even if he didn’t have the natural ability, he was certainly smart enough to invent some sort of Geiger-counter-style device. But that would have meant hitching something to his belt. That wasn’t his style.

If you’ve ever wondered how Superman felt when he was exposed to Kryptonite, now you know:

Owwwwww!
