::giggles:: I have a not-so-secret love for Clark being cutely indignant about the Bat on his turf only matched by when the Bat responds by getting chummy.

In The Batman Strikes! #44, Batman and Superman have met and worked together, but haven't entirely hashed out alpha-male territorial boundaries yet. Just where I like them; but those get worked out with surprising expediency. On the trail of Intergang, a spiffy plan is put into play by the two, but only after Bruce swaggers around the Daily Planet and gets a photo-op.



And after Batman gets totally scary on Rupert Thorne.

There's identity-switching, Superman getting a little possessive of the Bat, and escape artistry! Woo! The story is nothing that hasn't been done before, but all in all, I really enjoyed this one.

ExpandWow, what a swell day! )

"We should do this more often." Like they're playing golf or something. :D

So yeah; they don't exactly break the mold with this story, but it's lots of fun, and the whole thing is put together well right down to the lettering styles and Clark's spiffy suit. I was pleasantly surprised.
