Superman: "I..I can't believe that he...that I could be capable of all this.."

Wonder Woman: "You're not. And before you bring up the Knightmare dreams of Bruce's..well don't. Darkseid was to blame for all that and he's gone now."

Superman: "Still..there must be some kind of connection..some breaking point where he and I would both snap..."

Batman: "He infused Brainiac technology into my mind...along with a number of others. Including Kara."

Wonder Woman: "Who? Barry? Hal? Victor? Arthur?"

Batman: "...not exactly."

Mikey: "Dude..."
