** At the end of the episode, we get to see a [[BadassGrandpa greying Superman and Wonder Woman]] and a [[HandicappedBadass hoverchair-bound Batman]], when the time capsule is opened. In the middle of the unveiling, aliens attack. Superman heads off to his phone booth to change and Wonder Woman does her spin, as usual. Not to be outdone, Batman pushes a button on his hoverchair and it turns into ''a suit of freaking Batman PoweredArmor'', so old Bruce can go on fighting.

** The episode is about Aquaman, Green Arrow, Captain Marvel, and Plastic Man teaming up to act as Batman after he's critically injured. They all struggle to take out individual, non-powered villains that batman usually faces. Batman would, of course, have no trouble taking them all out himself. They all have one dominant thought on their minds: "How does Batman do it ''alone?''"

* "Requiem for a Scarlet Speedster!" a fully animated fight between Barry Allen and Professor Zoom both with their powers increase by other speedsters? after Zoom just took a super fast (though granted not as fast as him) Batman out without much effort... Awesome.

* From "Shadow of the Bat!", Jaime beats the crap out of [[spoiler: vampire]] BATMAN! [[spoiler: until he uses magic hypno-vampire-powers]] Compare to the earlier episodes, where he had no clue how to operate the suit.
** Not to mention J'onn taking on the whole group of vampire heroes

* Did everyone forget "Batmonolith" from ''The Fate of Equinox'? Batman gets the power of Hal Jordan, Red Tornado, Blue Beetle, Green Arrow, Fire, ComicBook/PlasticMan, Aquaman, Black Lightning, the Golden Age Flash and Dr. Fate and uses them to defeat the Balanced!Equonix...and was able to beat him with a LogicBomb and a Green Lantern-empowered punch to the face! Yeah, the Brave and the Bold won that day!

* From the tie-in comic, there's "Batman Dies At Dawn!" One night on a case, Batman is critically injured, and it's a race against time to get him help, and the only way to do that? Get a Lazarus Pit. So the Phantom Strange summons Robin. All of them (and Nightwing). Yes, it's a team-up between Dick, Jason, Tim, Stephanie, Damien and Carrie Kelley.
** Dick, Jason, Damien and Carrie deal with the League of Shadows, in their own different ways. Meanwhile, Tim and Steph guard Batman's body. They get found by Ra's, and rather than fight him, explain the situation. Ra's lets them use the Pit. [[spoiler:It works.]]
** The part with Tim and Steph gets more poignant given he doesn't know them yet. He still trusts them with Batman's life.
-->'''Tim:''' Nightwing didn't chose us to stay with here because he doesn't ''believe'' in us. He did it because he trusts us to keep Batman ''safe''.
** At the end of the issue, Phantom Stranger and Madame Xanadu talk about what would have happened if the Robins had failed.
-->'''Xanadu:''' There is always ''Batgirl'', too.
-->''(Cue shot of all the Batgirls standing together)''

** FridgeBrilliance, it completely dismantles a theory originally brought up by the comics Joker (and has been debated in and out of universe), that Batman ''needs'' Joker to give his existence meaning. Turns out it's the other way around, Joker is the only one with the obsessive need to "Not be ordinary".

* What about the Comicbook/GreenLantern team up episode, where, Batman takes out Guy Gardner in one frickin' punch, and when, near the end of the episode, Guy Gardner fights Sinestro to SAVE THE LIFE OF A PLANET.
** Also in this episode, we have Hal Jordan going up against the entire GreenLanternCorps (puppeted by Despero the whole time, mind you), and successfully beating them [[PreAsskickingOneLiner in typical]] [[BadassCreed GL style]]:

** Which is also a shout-out to Black Adam's first (and intended as last) appearance in the comics. Captain Marvel's ''non-superpowered uncle'' takes the Batman role, [[spoiler: tricking Black Adam into saying "Shazam" and destroying himself, as his human body was too ancient to survive. However, Black Adam either got better or [[CrisisOnInfiniteEarths that never happened]] [[ContinuitySnarl anymore]]]].

** All three of the villains dish out a pretty impressive CurbStompBattle during the OpponentSwitch, but Joker really stands out. While Cheetah prepared herself with some of Superman's weaknesses and Luthor had the element of surprise on his side, Joker just showed up on Paradise Island and started throwing his usual joke-themed weapons at Wonder Woman, yet his victory came no less easy than the other two.
