Will Friedle: Terry McGinnis, Batman

Quotes 

• Bruce Wayne : This isn't the first time Superman's gone rogue. I made sure to be prepared for when it happens again. I prayed I'd never have to use it.

  Batman : Kryptonite. This could kill him.

  Bruce Wayne : Do whatever it takes, but make sure you stop him.

• Superman : Good to see you Bruce.

  Bruce Wayne : It's been a while.

  Superman : You seem to be holding up pretty well.

  Bruce Wayne : I could use some of that Kryptonian DNA.

  Superman : You'll outlive us all, Bruce. You're too stubborn to die.

  Bruce Wayne : [Looks at Terry]  What are you smiling at?

  Batman : Nothing.

• Big Barda : [the rest of the League is objecting to Batman joining the team]  I thought we were a team. Slaves on Apokolips are treated with more respect.

  Green Lantern : Please. Anger just clouds the issue.

  Warhawk : Does it? My beak tells me this stinks.

  Aquagirl : I'm afraid Barda and Warhawk have a point. No offense.

  Superman : This isn't up for discussion. Like it or not, Batman stays.

  [Nobody says anything. Barda and Lantern exit without saying anything to Batman. Warhawk stops in front of him] 

  Warhawk : Just keep out of my way, junior. Hawks eat rodents like you for breakfast.

  [Aquagirl follows him out, giving Batman a sympathetic look as she does] 

  Batman : Maybe this was a mistake.

  Superman : No, I need someone I can trust.

• [Aquagirl walks in on Batman as he's reviewing the files of the League] 

  Aquagirl : Going over my file?

  Batman : [shutting the screen off]  Aquagirl.

  Aquagirl : You can call me Mareena.

  Batman : Mareena, it's all a bit overwhelming. I don't think I got off to a good start today.

  Aquagirl : Give it time. Everyone's been on edge since Micron's accident.

  Batman : I'm sorry.

  Aquagirl : Occupational hazard I guess. Want to join me for a swim?

  Batman : Thanks, but I've gotta cram. This League stuff's still new to me.
