I'm surprised I hadn't seen "Just you and me, my love...(and Superman)" out of context before.

That could so be a title for a romance novel.

Well, at least there's no Luthor/Joker/Penguin mashup this time around.

Interesting, how this World's Finest is a couple. So, what, no Alfred or Robin?

[cainofdreaming]

Alfred's on the second panel of the second scan, actually. And I suppose he's also the uncle referred to at one point.

[lordultimus]

He's talking about Jim Gordon, actually.

Alfred's there, but he's primarily in service to the elder Waynes. He and Bruce are probably close, but not THAT close.

I really like this ship, actually, but even if it is a Bronze Age story, there's plenty of YMMV Silver Age weirdness weighing it down. For one thing, it's a little embarrassing that a natural detective with eidetic memory couldn't noodle out the secret identity sooner, especially since "Bruce" didn't even bother to start wearing glasses until after he became Superman. For another, the reasoning behind her assuming the Batwoman identity when there's no Batman to model herself after is... well, let's call it "specious."

Love to see one of Batgirl's modern writers taking this idea on, though.

See, Bruce Timm? If there must be a story in which Bruce and Barbara are together, this is how you write it.
