I can’t find it, but I have faith in my fellow Dopers. I _think_ it should be Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal. But it’s barely possible that it’s The Oatmeal. Here’s the setup: Superman is talking with Batman. Actually, he’s apparently recapping everything Batman has just told him about his origin story. The gist of Superman’s recap is basically: \*So, when you were a little boy, you suddenly became the master of an inconceivably enormous fortune; you had what amounted to a slave working for you, seeing to your every need, your every desire, your every whim; no advantage was denied you, you received the best of everything? Bruce, you had an AWESOME childhood!\* Then we see Batman, looking up at Superman through his tears. The final panel shows a couple of orderlies/guards at Arkham Prison for the Criminally Insane (or maybe the JLA Brig/Infirmary) talking about how the patient/prisoner in the padded room they just passed actually killed Superman with his bare hands… Anybody got a link? TIA. ---

Batman is always prepared. And he always carries a piece of Kryptonite in a lead-lined box on his belt. Just in case. ---

> [@Skald\_the\_Rhymer](#): > > How exactly does an unprepared Batman beat Superman to death? The same way a prepared one does. He shatters every bone in his hands and arms hitting Superman, then Superman wanders off to commit suicide because he hurt his friend. ---

Excellent! Thanks very much! I just stuck it into a FB thread started by an old college buddy who writes comic book scripts (and his wife owns a comic book store). I think he’s going to get a kick out of it.
