Go To

After being ignored despite fighting off a supervillain, Batgirl and Supergirl turn to Max Lord for advice on improving their public image.


Tropes:

  • Acquired Situational Narcissism: After Max Lord improves their reputations, Supergirl and Batgirl both become egotistical and feeling that they are more important than the other.
  • Bus Full of Innocents: Subverted. Supergirl and Batgirl stop Giganta from throwing a bus, but it turns out to be empty.
  • "King Kong" Climb: Giganta grabs Max Lord and climbs to the top of the Daily Planet.
  • Mythology Gag: "World's Finest" was an anthology comic that frequently featured Batman and Superman teaming up, which is fitting for an episode about Batgirl and Supergirl.
  • Playing Both Sides: Max Lord was not only representing Supergirl and Batgirl, but also Giganta — her kidnapping the mole was one of his stunts.
  • Save the Villain: Supergirl and Batgirl reluctantly have to save Max from Giganta.
  • Suddenly Voiced: Despite being mute throughout all of season 1, Jimmy Olsen suddenly gets to speak. It helps that Lois Lane isn't around to cut him off.
  • Take That!: Jimmy gets excited when he hears that Batman and Superman are fighting each other. It gathers a large crowd, even though the two are just playing a fighting video game against each other.
