The new God of Destruction reminds me of one thing.



(One fateful day at the Hall of Justice.)



BATMAN: Oh, hey. Where are you off to?

SUPERMAN: Hello, fellow Super Friend!

BATMAN: (exasperated) We're the Justice League.

SUPERMAN: I'm representing the Super Friends with Green Lantern before the UN.

BATMAN: What? No one told me.

SUPERMAN: Well, what could you tell them that's worth hearing? Your enemies all stink.

BATMAN: I have three in the Legion -

SUPERMAN: That stink! There's a guy made of straw, a grown man who plays with toys, and a guy who gives us clues which technically makes him an ally.

BATMAN: There's others too, though, um... Aquaman!

SUPERMAN: Aquaman's your enemy?

BATMAN: No, I-I was just telling Aquaman about my arch-enemy the other day, right, Aquaman?

AQUAMAN: Huh? Oh, uh, yeah, yeah! He was... a real... bad guy.

SUPERMAN: (not fooled) Uh-huh.

AQUAMAN: Absolutely! He's very dangerous, a real threat.

SUPERMAN: So if he's such a threat, why haven't we heard of him?

AQUAMAN: Because... no one... told you.

SUPERMAN: (not fooled) Uh-huh.

AQUAMAN: Because... we knew... you couldn't handle it.

SUPERMAN: Yeah, come on, I'm Superman. I'm so powerful we named the Super Friends after me.

BATMAN: (exasperated) We're the Justice League, you...

AQUAMAN: But, we couldn't tell you because... because it's the thing you're most afraid of.

SUPERMAN: Oh come on, I'm not afraid of... wait, wait, you don't mean it's a... a clown?

AQUAMAN: ...

BATMAN: ...

AQUAMAN: (enthusiastically) Hell yes it's a clown! A... a really bad clown!

SUPERMAN: Well, that is pretty impressive. Don't know if I can take him on then. Hey Lantern, did you know Batman's arch-enemy is a clown?

GREEN LANTERN: Oh, Aquaman's your enemy now, Bruce? We should probably go so we can pose for our statues.

BATMAN: (sarcastic) Nice one, real smooth.

AQUAMAN: (earnestly) Thanks!

BATMAN: Idiot. Clown as my arch-enemy, thanks a lot!

AQUAMAN: Hey, where are you going?

BATMAN: I've gotta go out and kick the crap out of some random clown and throw him in Arkham Asylum. Do that a few times, I'm sure he'll become my arch-enemy.
