Batman/Wonder Woman - Weight Of The Battle

SUPERMAN: Diana?

BATMAN: She took the most from Mongul.

WONDER WOMAN: Let me guess. I’m not fine.

BATMAN: Very much.

WONDER WOMAN: But I can heal fast.

BATMAN: I know.

This piece directly interprets the aftermath of the Justice League Unlimited episode "For The Man Who Has Everything." After a brutal confrontation with Mongul (who, in my headcanon, was beheaded by Draaga of Warworld to the Trinity's dismay (yes, the Black Mercy was abducted)), the Trinity picks up the pieces on an emotional and physical level.

However, Wonder Woman is severely wounded. Her ribs cracked and bruises all over her body. Batman steps into a protective role and carries her back to the Invisible Jet and travel back to the Watchtower II to be taken care of. Behind them, Superman watches his allies depart as he reflects on the toll of the Black Mercy and the life he had to leave behind.

This becomes a turning point in Bruce and Diana's relationship in some ways since it shows that Bruce is committing to the well-being of a respected colleague he cared for beneath the cowl. Although, like Superman, Batman will soon have to reflect on the Black Mercy's affects on himself and see his true heart's desire.

Superman was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Bruce Wayne was created by Bill Finger and Bob Kane. Diana Prince was created by William Moulton Marston. Inspired by Bruce Timm's DCAU art style.

Bruce Wayne/Diana Prince - Looking Beyond

This one I could not get out of my own head. Bruce and Diana standing on the Southern grounds of Themyscira after putting behind their roles as superheroes. It's set after the prologue of the Batman Beyond episode "Rebirth" and before the main events of the actual series itself.

Batman did have health issues obviously and he went against his morals pointing a gun at some punk, leading to his abandonment in crime fighting in Batman Beyond "Rebirth." Not to mention losing Wayne Enterprises to Derek powers...yeah that greedy ass boss.

In Wonder Woman's case, her mission as ambassador of Themyscira ended after the World Assembly and United Nations couldn't see eye-to-eye with the Amazons. And Diana and Hippolyta hid their island from the entire world as a result...save for a few friends and family.

One year later, Bruce Wayne gazes and broods at the horizon, knowing that Gotham is calling for Batman to come out...despite the fact he cannot help without risking his health or crossing a line. Diana noticed this and probably knows one day somebody might seek the cave and the cowl. To which Bruce says, "My subconscious will disagree."

Matt crying on the floor of the church basement... my heart...

Those prison officers sure took their time coming in. If Fisk had decided to kill that guy he'd be dead

Hey, who do we think Matt picked as his confirmation saint?

Of course teenage Matt got into fights all the time

"I do pray, I pray all the time, I've been praying for years. God doesn't talk to me." I. mm. ouch. That one hits a bit close to home.

Respiratory illnesses from... dragon bones? Random grit and dust thrown up by the collapsing building?

Ugh being famous must be terrible

Foggy's family!

Oh hey Dex...

Matt: exits the cleaners and presumably flings his coat and cane into a dumpster somewhere

Dying laughing at Matt reporting an assault that he caused

Foggy, you never told us you were bad at sandwiches xD

...Are people worried that Foggy's cheating on Marci? With Karen?

All the goodbyes don"t have the same taste. Before fear and war, it's not the same goodbye as always.
