So the woman Batman married and was killed by Joker, worked for the Joker.

I like that. Sometimes with the Batman/Joker relationship Batman can't see the truth.

I like some of what I read.

Can I ask why my comment was deleted? I figure it would be okay to post that since this is about another leaked CBM script. Not mad, just curious

Not the best, but some moments had potential.

The final fight between Superman and Batman seems like it would be good, and idea of a Kryptonite powered bat-armour sounds like it would even the fight. Although it just had me thinking with the suit being laced with Kryptonite, the exoskeleton suit of Luthor's that John Corbam AKA Metallo should have got a mention.

I didn't like the 'Villain' team up, and it does feel dated, CBM's have come a long way since this was written.

i liked it..it def had some great moments..i thought luthor was wrote really well..the fight between supes and bats was real good too..joker was good..i guess with him being jack napier they were going with the canon from burtons movies..maybe killing joke..i just think joker shouldnt really have a back story..plus with batmans wife being with the joker was good..coulda been a harley reference there too...alot of it was really good and worthy of being made..wonder if snyder/goyer and affleck will look to this for anything..

Wow..!!! if ONLY that happened. i ain't too sure having both super heroes being married's a good move, though. By now, we're probably on the first sequel to the Justice League live action movie. i wonder who would've been cast for that version...

let's see 2002..hmm..Ben Affleck was still a big name, t'was before Gigli and Daredevil, right. so yeah he could still have been cast as the Bats..as for Superman..Brendan Fraser..??

The funny thing is, the producer wanted the actors to capture the FUN of being a superhero.
Original concept:
Dick Grayson, Alfred and Gordon are all DEAD
Lois Lane has divorced Superman.
Bruce's wife is DEAD.
Very fun!
