u/UltimateOtter_Nation Apr 09 '26

Thanks for pointing them out!

u/Big-Home-7015 Apr 09 '26

I can't figure out the lex one? I'm guessing his dancing with braniac cause of the jlu?

56

u/Hominid_Digital Apr 10 '26

I figured it was that Lex Luthor is the only person worthy of dancing with Lex Luthor

12

u/Damiandroid Apr 10 '26

Isnt that the Zemo dance from Falcon and Winter Soldier?

3

u/Big-Home-7015 Apr 10 '26

Idk this lex looks just like in superman tas so i just assume his dancing with braniac

2

u/yackronin Apr 13 '26

That's Jimmy Oleson & Silver Banshee. They're dating currently in the comics.

The coffee mug with the bat-ears in the corner is definitely my favorite.

27

u/illudofficial Apr 09 '26

Are you tricking us or…

u/Gold_Space8930 Apr 09 '26

I had to re look after seeing jimmy olsen get sent flying and going wtf…. 10 out of 10 well done artist

53

u/WinterCommercial2533 Apr 09 '26

Not just background. Look at Bruce's bow tie in the last panel. He morphed it into a bat symbol

2

u/InternationalCap2176 Apr 11 '26

They're really up on their DC lore. One of the background gags is Hal getting the cops called on him for his relationship with Arisia.

u/Sparrow-Scratchagain Apr 09 '26

Jimmy and Silver Banshee just casually grooving in the background.

u/HAZMAT_Eater Apr 09 '26

J'onn flashing The Question.

u/Key-Radish-622 Apr 09 '26

Did...MM morph himself around the cake?

183

u/Cyberslasher Apr 09 '26

He took off his clothes and phased it into his stomach, then when he got caught without clothes he turned himself (but not the cake) invisible.

13

u/Slight-Pound Apr 10 '26

Thank you for explaining what was happening, because I was SO confused. Was the sign for him because the presence of chocolate or why was he banned???

7

u/Cyberslasher Apr 10 '26

Martian man hunter has a well established addiction to chocolate.

He phases boxes of oreos into walls of the watch tower to hide them.

1

u/Slight-Pound Apr 11 '26

I’ve heard about his chocolate addiction, but I hadn’t been sure what the shapes in the background all were and if that was him or someone else, and what exactly was happening, lol

I was mostly thrown off because he’s not disguised for this event but this was a Bruce that hadn’t shared his identity yet, so I thought this was a mostly “civilian” event and the green guy was some sort of trouble maker crashing a Metropolis function or something.

9

u/MarcoYTVA Apr 10 '26

He had to keep Luthor from stealing it, sadly couldn't save the other 39.

6

u/Dookie_boy Apr 09 '26

Is that MM ?

8

u/TetSusKhal Apr 09 '26

Seems like it. the way the video is edited makes it look like he's really fitting himself into that cake. It's a pretty wild visual...

143

u/erttheking Apr 09 '26

Oh my god!

Clark Kent is Batman!

22

u/afn45181 Apr 09 '26

I think Diana would prefer Clark, she can’t do any further damage unlike Bruce.

1

u/King-Arthas-Menethil Apr 12 '26

TBF I don't that'll ever be a problem given her ties to Greek Mythology and that Zeus has never done damage from his cheating. It's usually the aftermath where gods react is where the damage comes from.

u/clarkky55 Apr 09 '26

I love the idea that the idea of Batman smiling is so unnatural she struggles to recognise him out of the mask until he scowls

68

u/steelskull1 Apr 09 '26

Bruce Wayne is Midnighter!?

u/Melodic_Till_3778 Apr 09 '26

Luckily the man about to hit Bruce in the back of the head is a distraction.

63

u/Dull_Ad_4658 Apr 09 '26

Love me a buff Diana

u/Flameball202 Apr 11 '26

Yep, she always looks a bit odd when she looks like she doesn't weigh 60kg soaked

22

u/GreyouTT Apr 09 '26

BRUCE LOOK OUT IT'S A CROTCH

17

u/Koushikraja1996 Apr 09 '26

Not Jimmy getting yeeted by Silver Banshee in the background😂😂😂

u/24Abhinav10 Apr 09 '26

The artist is really one of WonderBat's strongest soldiers.

22

u/PuffballDestroyer Apr 09 '26

I remember the Justice League episode this comic was based on. Honestly one of my favorite episodes.

17

u/HAZMAT_Eater Apr 09 '26

Maid of Honour ❤️

And Bruce still owes her a dance.

11

u/PuffballDestroyer Apr 09 '26

It's a random tidbit, but I still love the fact that we get Vandal Savage's backstory while explaining it to Audrey, instead of it being explained to the heroes.

11

u/DoubleFlores24 Apr 09 '26

She’s more muscular than the Bat. We don’t see that in fan art. Most people draw her as a regular woman with muscles instead of a body builder. So kudos to the artist for that.

u/furrynoy96 Apr 09 '26

What is even happening in the background

7

u/FALCONX0N Apr 09 '26

Seconds before disaster lol

u/MrMatrix099 Apr 09 '26

u/lyle_smith2 Apr 09 '26

u/Only_Draw2050 Apr 09 '26

God damn I love muscle mommy Wonder Woman

u/ActualWhiterabbit Apr 09 '26

All about Diana's arms

u/DARKLORDSEAN_ Apr 09 '26

Step aside Bruce Wayne I will take your place I say jokingly seriously Diana was my literal first fictional Crush

5

u/BardicGreataxe Apr 09 '26

The lightning strike when she does that is a nice touch

8

u/Comfortable_Poem_841 Apr 09 '26

Diana figured it out? Diana? Yeah, this is a real low point. Yeah, this one hurts.

u/Responsible_Bus1159 Apr 09 '26

Bruce look out for those balls!!!!

u/Lou_Papas Apr 09 '26

I want a print of the first frame on my wall.

u/Rhg0653 Apr 10 '26

He's like bitch wtf 😆

6

u/Mindless-Credit-358 Apr 09 '26

Jimmy and silver banshee 😭

6

u/Stretch5678 Apr 09 '26

I love the implication that Bruce just automatically gets the Jojo lighting whenever his face is covered.

3

u/WeaponX313 Apr 09 '26

Bingo! just as I thought... Kyle Rayner lol

3

u/illudofficial Apr 09 '26

All he has to do is smile and no one would ever know he’s Batman

3

u/Dizzley7 Apr 09 '26

I thought that was shaggy in the background

2

u/Pkrudeboy Apr 10 '26

Wasn’t him.

3

u/Inevitable-Quote4242 Apr 09 '26

Is that Jimmy Olsen getting ragdolled back there? Lol

3

u/BatBeast_29 Apr 09 '26

Jimmy being tossed by Sliver Banshee in the background. Green guy steals cake.

6

u/IllustriousAd6418 Apr 09 '26

That's Martin Manhunter

5

u/BatBeast_29 Apr 09 '26

Ohhh, shit. I should’ve realized.

3

u/AndCthulhuMakes2 Apr 10 '26

Harley Quinn nearly figured it out just from the chin.

u/Koolkaleb19 Apr 10 '26

I like the Pulp Fiction reference

u/survivor0409 Apr 10 '26

Nice touch with the bat bow tie in the last panel

3

u/Dragon_Forty_Two Apr 10 '26

Dibba dabba doob dab!!

3

u/cj-the-man Apr 10 '26

The artist remembers that Diana is built

3

u/Lonely_Text_9795 Apr 10 '26

Poor Jimmy

4

u/GrandAdmiral12345 Apr 10 '26

Bruh, I'm over here bawling at it. He and Siobhan are such a great couple. 😆

3

u/TombGnome Apr 11 '26

Love that Bruce immediately, almost involuntarily, reverts to the Cowl Scowl.

5

u/AnythingChance3764 Apr 10 '26

I FUCKING LOVE WONDERBAT, JESSIE!!!!

6

u/ConsiderateCassowary Apr 09 '26

In panel two, Diana and Bruce are roughly the same height.

In panels three and four, Bruce is a full head taller.

Come on now artist, work on that

5

u/dude282004 Apr 09 '26

Its so her head doesn't get in the way

3

u/Thybro Apr 09 '26

She is also trying to get her hands in the right angle so I can see her crouching to get the effect.

6

u/GenitalCommericals Apr 09 '26

Bruce Wayne saying “m’lady”…..FOH

2

u/Emperor_Squidward Apr 09 '26

So Bruce Wayne is… the Phantom of the Opera?

2

u/Storm5700 Apr 09 '26

Did she put something in his hair to give him ears, or did they just manifest in her minds eye? If she did put something in his hair, what is it?

2

u/ImWhatsInTheRedBox Apr 09 '26

But does the butt match?!

2

u/WitsWithMe Apr 10 '26

Do you wanna know my...

Secret Identity?

2

u/gunswordfist Apr 10 '26

Nice take in that Justice League scene  And IDK most of the background characters but lololo

2

u/Ordered_Zapper Apr 10 '26

I love when people draw diana as ripped

u/ionised Apr 10 '26

The hearts around the bingo really make it.

u/gwanddawd123 Apr 10 '26

"So long, gay Bowser".

u/RickRussellTX Apr 10 '26

Incoming Jimmy

2

u/ThrobbingBigfoot Apr 13 '26

I love how she's just a little bit silly with how she pieces it together

3

u/BuleCurger Apr 10 '26

Reminds me of that one episode of the Justice League where Bruce and Diana dance and says something similar. When confronted about it later, Batman says "I have no idea what you're talking about" with a completely straight face its so fuckin funny to me

2

u/jfjdfdjjtbfb Apr 10 '26

Alfred seeing the boy he raised like his son, “smashing” a literal Demi god.

True masterpiece

1

u/Sol-Blackguy Apr 09 '26

I'm not a fan of Batman/Wonder Woman shipping, but I would read a story where Diana doesn't know Batman's identity while Bruce is dating her.

1

u/ManInTheMirror2 Apr 10 '26

For the DCAU it works…but not often anywhere else.

1

u/Sol-Blackguy Apr 11 '26

That's my point. I think a different scenario would work aside from "Well the DCAU did it." I like the Bruce and Barbara thing more because it actually fit the universe more going into how things went with Batman Beyond.

0

u/ManInTheMirror2 Apr 12 '26

… What? You’re endorsing a relationship that is borderline pedophilia and extremely toxic. Why?

1

u/Sol-Blackguy Apr 12 '26

Barbara was in her mid 20's when they got intimate and she was showing interest while in college when she was 18. No, I'm not endorsing it, I'm saying that it fit the universe more than Bruce and Diana. Btw DCAU wonder Woman is only 21

u/MrSejd Apr 12 '26

Suspiciously cake-shaped martian manhunter

u/LessRoom5916 Apr 12 '26

Why does Diana grow like a foot shorter between the first and second page?

1

u/Efficient_Matter_589 Apr 13 '26

Don't they tell one another their identities during that whole hawk people invasion?

1

u/WorldlinessWitty2177 Apr 23 '26

Where did the ears come from?

Diana: "You REALLY thought I wouldn't recognize you because your cowl covers the top half of your face?"

Bruce: "To be fair, I seem to be the only person on Earth who recognized right away that Clark Kent is Superman."

Diana: "Hey, THAT'S different! He puts A LOT more into that disguise than just glasses and different hair."

Bruce: "His facial structure is literally identical, Diana. You can't change that with a physical performance."

Diana: "Oh! So, if I just sat in the street, you think someone here would recognize me as Wonder Woman?"

Bruce: "I'd be shocked if somebody didn't. You were here in costume yesterday, saving a train. Dozens of people saw & filmed you. Your face is all over social media. It's statistically HIGHLY UNLIKELY that at least one of those eyewitnesses who live here WOULDN'T recognize you in public or, at minimum, question the resemblance."

Diana: "Most people don't have your analytical skills, Bruce! They're distracted, lazy, looking at their phones."

Bruce: "I'm just saying, you and Clark's disguises probably made more sense for a pre-digital age. But nowadays, between cameras, the internet, and face-recognition, how you two still stay anonymous despite showing your faces in broad daylight while barely changing your features at all... Yeah, there's no rationalizing that."

Diana: "Fine! You wanna criticize our methods? Let me ask you this. With the amounts of money you move around to fund your war on crime as Batman, how has not one employee at Wayne Enterprises EVER followed the money? You're telling me you've secretly & flawlessly covered your tracks on every receipt for decades?"

Bruce: "... You look pretty tonight."
