** Most people are already calling it ''ComicBook/WorldsFinest'', because it's both the title of the pre-ComicBook/{{Crisis|on Infinite Earths}} Batman/Superman crossover comic, as well as the CrossOver movie which codified the Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse between ''[[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries Batman]]'' and ''[[WesternAnimation/SupermanTheAnimatedSeries Superman]]''.

Worse than usual. His parents were brutally killed before his eyes, who knows what horrors he has seen in his 20 years as Batman, Robin was brutally murdered, and he was helpless to do anything in the final battle of ManOfSteel. As a result, his mind snapped into sheer fight-flight reactions and InsaneTrollLogic along the lines of "dragons set stuff on fire, Superman can set stuff on fire, so Superman is a dragon. And dragons need to be slain by a knight." Somehow Bruce will recover and not need to be in a mental institution.

Halfway through the fight, Batman and Superman will realize that the other guy isn't their enemy. But they continue fighting to give Clark an impromptu training session and to trick Comicbook/LexLuthor into thinking they are still enemies. Because Clark knows that Lois is doing some sneaky detective work and needs Comicbook/LexLuthor to stay distracted.

Batman helps form the Justice League, but he realizes that there's still plenty of small-fry crime to take care of. He decides to form another team of vigilantes, more low key than the League to combat such crime. He calls this team [[ComicBook/BatmanAndTheOutsiders The Outsiders]], while someone else jokingly calls it [[ComicBook/BatmanGrantMorrison Batman Incorporated]].

And he sent her to the [[spoiler:bombing]] to test them. It would foreshadow Comicbook/InfinityInc.

* Sure, go ahead. DC has a lot to learn from Marvel. In fact, if you want the "government supergroups vs. freelance supergroups", you have the whole aftermath of ''ComicBook/CivilWar'' to steal ideas from.

** To put it simply, there would be a romantic situation similar to the one in Franchise/{{DCAU}}'s "World's Finest" three-parter (Lois begins dating Bruce, she finds out his secret, and they end their relationship).

** Seconded on that being how Dick died, but I'm thinking if anyone else dies in the tower collapse ("You let your family die" sounds plural) it will be *Jim* Gordon, since he's supposed to be dead already as well. Either way, if Barbara is in the tower too, I doubt she'll die (maybe[[MythologyGag crippled though]]) due to how sensitive people are about bad things happening to female characters lately. Her being one of, if not the, foremost female characters of the DC cash cow franchise adds into that.

2. Alfred was The Outsider in the comics, so having him play a villain is somewhat faithful to the Batman mythology, especially given that memorable eulogy in ''Comicbook/WhateverHappenedToTheCapedCrusader?''

* We've seen these face-offs in ''ComicBook/BatmanTheDarkKnightReturns'' and ''Comicbook/{{Flashpoint}}'', so who's to say there won't eventually be a 2-on-2 brawl that ends with all four deciding on a truce that eventually develops into a League?

In ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice'' she has a robot arm that was really cool. In several media, Lex works on robots quite frequently (creating Metallo, countless Lex Luthor robots), so it's not too hard to believe that Luthor would want a robot armed to the teeth (perhaps even literally) guarding him at all times.

** Plus, we didn't see that many kryptonians in Man of Steel. It mostly consisted of Kal-El, his biological parents, Zod, his soldiers, and those council guys. I don't think that's a good number to use to definitely judge the whole population.

*** Yes but again, Batfleck is completely different from [[Creator/ChristianBale Bat-Bale]]. It's [[http://screenrant.com/batman-vs-superman-difference-between-ben-affleck-christian-bale/ mentioned]] that Batfleck would be ''an older and wiser version'' that would complement with Creator/HenryCavill's Superman, probably similar to Bruce Wayne's version from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond''. Anyways, I guess most people are very used to Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy.

Wiki/ namespace clean up.


Superman failed to save the world in ''Man of Steel'' and now they are all dead and the entire DC Universe is about the heroes journey to redemption to enter Paradise and atone for their sins. Because a WMG on Wiki/TVTropes isn't a WMG on [=TVTropes=] unless EverybodyIsJesusInPurgatory.

** The ones that you mentioned are from the Nolanverse and, for the nth time, they're not connected to Snyder's version ever since Creator/BenAffleck got cast as Batman. It's possible that Batfleck would be the version close to the comics. If you check [[Characters/BatmanAndBatFamily Batman's tropes]], he doesn't kill or is reluctant to kill unless it's necessary. Hell, in ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamCity'', he regrets letting Joker die and has to let Harley Quinn live.
