Batman can be sure no car is following him through the illusory wall into the Batcave; he can't constantly check whether immortal robots with giant telescopes are following the Batmobile from a platform miles in the sky.Jacob T.

Everyone keeps telling me how terrible it is, but look! Guy Gardner is right there on the cover! Woohoo!<BR/><BR/>I remember Tawny Young. She had a crush on John Stewart and took it rather badly when he ran off with Katma Tui instead. <BR/><BR/>Nancy Reagan being a Manhunter DOES explain rather a lot. I DO like Gregorio though, although some of his fashion decisions are a bit suspect. <BR/><BR/>I would also hate to be Hal Jordan's neighbor.
