** X is Jason Todd.
** "Martha" "WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME"

** X is Jason Todd.
Todd. [[note]] Due to a wild fan theory that this version of the Joker was a corrupted Jason Todd. [[/note]]
** "Martha" "WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME"NAME" [[note]]Batman pauses his attack on Superman when he hears him mention a Martha, since that was his mother's name. It gives Lois enough time to run in and explain that Superman is referring to his own mother, Martha Kent, who was kidnapped by Luthor. This revelation makes Batman realize who the real enemy is...however the delivery of the scene is so over-the-top it gets abridged to "Batman and Superman become friends when they realize their moms have the same name".[[/note]]

to:

[[BuffySpeak FLIRTERERS!]]FLIRTERERS!]] [[note]] Green Arrow gets fed up with [[DatingCatwoman Batman and Catwoman's]] antics; while he and Batman are caught in one of the villain's dastardly traps, the Dark Knight seems more interested in trading suggestive quips with the lovely lady than helping his comrade find a way to escape.

* [[MrFanservice Dick Grayson's ass]]. For a medium infamous as a boys' club with a habit of drawing only unrealistically sexy women, most creators have been both enthusiastic and generous with showcasing that Dick Grayson has the best ass in comics.
