"I know pain. Sometimes I share it. With someone like you." - #Batman. From Batman: Year One (Batman V1 #407). Written by #FrankMiller. Art by #DavidMazzucchelli.

Years ago it was was the way the world approved of #Magog and his murder of the #Joker that made #Superman retreat from the world. By the time they meet again, Magog has learnt a tragic lesson about murder as a casual solution to crime, when it got millions of innocent people killed.

A repentant #BronzeTiger gives #CassandraCain #Batgirl some much needed information on her origins, but more importantly shows his intense respect for how far she has come. From Batgirl V1 #67. Written by #AndersenGabrych. Art by @alegarza.bsky.social. Inks by #JesseDelperdang.

Trapped in time and forced to fight his way to the present, #SpiderMan #PeterParker is ready to give up after deciding he causes more problems than he solves. #DoctorStrange reminds him of how fortunate his life really is and gives him the strength to keep going.

On a time travel mission with the #JLA, #GreenLantern #KyleRayner fears his mind is compromised and refuses to go, sure the #JusticeLeague will die. A sick but determined #Batman reminds him facing death is part of heroism: “Death is powerless against you if you leave a legacy of good behind."

"You pass into their lives, then out of them, in a matter of minutes or, or seconds, and you forget that their lives continue after you swing away. They go back to their homes, their jobs, apartments... because of something you did. You, #PeterParker." #SpiderMan

All those lives saved, all those #supervillains defeated, all those victories. He was the greatest #crime-fighter the world had ever known. Yet it ended with him alone, and forced to pick up a gun to defend himself. Time beats everyone, even those who deserve better. #Batman

True enough. Al Williamson, who inked all this, was a hero of mine.

When #SpiderMan and #SpiderMan2099 swap places in time, they’re forced to team up to fix it. The standout moment to me is cynical #MiguelO'Hara seeing the heroes of the past, long lost in his era, and being moved to genuine tears as they seemingly charge into battle.

I HAD to post this at some point: the awesome intro for #IronMan: The Animated Series Season 2.

I like that despite going through his own massive problem with the #Hulk in his premier issue, the first reaction of #BruceBanner to the #Gargoyle is to try and help him with his condition. It sets the tone for the kind of guy Banner really is despite the things he went through in his childhood.

#ProfessorIvo and #T.O.Morrow created #TomorrowWoman to infiltrate and destroy the #JLA #JusticeLeague, but as Morrow expected she surpasses her programming and sacrifices her life to save them instead. #Superman attends her funeral - and makes it clear she was no mere machine.

Here’s #SpiderMan being awesome in #SecretWars. When he discovers the #XMen planning to leave and join #Magneto, he decides tattle on them and escapes, casually smacking around half the team, including #Wolverine, #Cyclops, #Nightcrawler and #Rogue. Only #Xavier using his powers stops him.

#Batman is born. From Batman: Mask of the #Phantasm (1993).

“You’re all fools… heroic fools. The brave are always the first to die…” - #Magneto. The #XMen resolve to stop a dark future, even facing certain death. #Wolverine and #Jubilee admit how much the team means to them. From #X-Men TAS S1E13, written by #MarkEdwardEdens.

…but when I saw what he meant, when I watched how he surrendered himself to an ideal… …how he used each ordeal, each heartache and failure, to become a better man, in the service of others… …what could I do but stand in humble awe? And keep his wounds clean and his uniform tidy.

It's often assumed that #Batman is the real persona and #BruceWayne is a front - but is that really true? Personally, I believe #Brubaker got it right. Batman is just a creation of Bruce Wayne, a reflection of his inner ethics. From Batman V1 #604. Written by #EdBrubaker, art by #ScottMcDaniel.

When #Ezekiel captures #PeterParker #SpiderMan and reveals he used him as a scapegoat to pay for stealing Totemic powers, their souls partially swap. Seeing Peter’s selflessness, Ezekiel realizes his mistakes and goes back. Later #Miguel reminds us we always have the power to change the world.

After defeating her #Injustice counterpart, #WonderWoman explains how the other Diana betrayed her mission by enabling #Superman’s pain and rage instead of trying to save him, rejects casual murder as justice, and urges her #Amazon sisters to return to their true calling of love and compassion.

Tortured by the #WeaponX program, #Wolverine escapes into the wild. His first human contact with Heather and James Hudson of #AlphaFlight was beyond fortunate. I'm posting this scene from #XMen TAS because of the sheer sorrow, pain and confusion poor Logan expresses here at what was done to him.

The #Planetary team travels to #Gotham to catch a sick man who has the uncontrollable power to rotate small sections of reality through parallel universes. They discover a particular superhero who is present in a great deal of them - and whom has the perspective needed to solve the problem.
