Bruce wandered off to be alone, not wanting to party with the other kids, Zatara's daughter ComicBook/{{Zatanna}} approaches Bruce and, without saying a word, pulls a variant of the coin-behind-the-ear trick, producing soap bubbles from behind Bruce's ear. Because of this trick, Zatanna became one of the first people to reach young Bruce after his parents' deaths. Batman recalled his first meeting with Zatanna when the two investigated the murder of her former assistant at the hands of ComicBook/TheJoker, which [[AuthorsSavingThrow helped him overcome his mistrust of Zatanna]] after the events of ''ComicBook/IdentityCrisis''.

* ''ComicBook/XMen'': In a flashback, it is revealed that Jean's mental powers were inadvertently coming to, tearing down the mental blocks Professor X had placed there years before. To discover the cause, Professor X reaches behind Jean's ear and pulls out... a mental hologram of ComicBook/{{Cyclops}}, explaining that the resurgence of Jean's powers was due to her trying to emotionally "reach out" to him. Not quite a quarter, but pulling something out of someone's subconscious seems like a cool trick, too!
