** In ''ComicBook/{{Robin}}: Year One'', Dick defeats Mark Desmond, Blockbuster, by tricking the DumbMuscle into knocking himself out. He comments that he'd hate to fight someone who was like Blockbuster only smart. In ''ComicBook/{{Nightwing}}'', his archenemy was Desmond's brother Roland, who took the Blockbuster formula after Mark's death, and then [[ComicBook/UnderworldUnleashed made a deal with Neron]] to become [[GeniusBruiser superintelligent as well]]. Also in the same story, SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker reacts to Two-Face's desire for revenge on the Boy Wonder by [[OhCrap unsmilingly]] telling him [[ComicBook/ADeathInTheFamily he's already claimed Robin's death]].

* The "Year One" stories are built on these.
** In ''[[Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica JLA: Year One]]'', the League's security system is made by Kord Industries. "Screw taking over the family business," says young [[ComicBook/BlueBeetle Ted Kord]] to himself when the JLA come to pick it up, "I want to be one of ''those'' guys!"
** In ''World's Finest: Seventh Year'' (published 1999, but set shortly after ''Action Comics'' #643 from July 1989), Franchise/{{Batman}} and Franchise/{{Superman}} discuss situations in which they'd be tempted to kill. Bruce asks Clark what he'd do if a being of pure destruction was destroying Metropolis. The image of this hypothetical beast is shadowed, but unmistakably [[ComicBook/TheDeathOfSuperman Doomsday]].
** ''Ninth Year'' has a gang of crooks take advantage of the confusion following ''ComicBook/TheDeathOfSuperman'' by posing as ''even more'' claimants during ''Reign of the Supermen''. One of them, claiming to have "[[EvolutionaryLevels evolved to the next life-stage]] of Kryptonian development", has energy powers and a blue-and-white costume with a lightning-bolt "S". It doesn't look ''exactly'' like the Superman-Blue outfit, but it looks similar enough to make the point.
** And ''Tenth Year'' ends with Clark warning Bruce "Don't expect [[SupermanStaysOutOfGotham Superman to look away again if Gotham needs help, just because Batman declares it's off limits]]", and Bruce responding "And don't expect Batman to stand aside the next time Superman decides he's the only one who can solve the world's problems."

* In ''Franchise/{{Batman}}: Lovers & Madmen'', one of the Joker's [[MultipleChoicePast many origins]], "Jack" gets inspired to go from bored hitman to MadArtist after a conversation with a blonde waitress who wants to be a psychiatrist. When the Joker anonymously pays her tuition, she turns out, of course, to be Harleen Quinzel. Later on in the story, Batman asks for help from a Dr.Jonathan Crane for help with figuring out how to beat "Jack".
* ''Comicbook/{{Batman}}: Snow'' is set a bit over a year into Batman's career, and shows him taking on a team of agents. When this doesn't work, he comments to Alfred that he still needs back-up, but it would have to be one person he could train properly. He concludes "I'll know it when I see it", while the newspaper page opposite the one he's reading announces that the Flying Graysons are touring New England.
