I was pleased when Man-Bat encountered Superman once. Brief skirmish (if it can be called that), then a team-up. Probably hard for Man-Bat to have any sort of chance against Superman.

We need to bring in the really heavy gun on this one...Condiment King. Okay, I jest, but can you imagine this as one of those "offbeat" Bronze Age issues"? On the cover: "Not a hoax! Not an imaginary story!"

I believe that image is from Batman #54 from 2018:

Thank you. This is the first I’ve heard of Condiment King. You bet! Just a little more back story, he actually first appeared in Batman the Animated Series as a joke character by Timm and Dini, here's a clip from below. But since then he's made a number of appearances in the regular comics...so crazy an idea folks kind of love him type of deal.

I like it.
You know, I hate how wrestling journalists take wrestling so damn seriously, as if ultra-serious Dave Meltzer is some sort of guru. Nothing can ever be fun for the technical wrestling snobs, they dismiss some of the more fun aspects. (There’s a place for seriousness, but there’s also a place for fun)
Well, comics SHOULD be the same. There’s a time and a place for some deep and profound social commentary - and there’s a time and a place for Condiment King.
People that want to be the deathly serious types about wrestling and comicbooks need to remember that both are make-believe. Sure, wrestlers have athletic talent but the scenarios and results are fictional. As are comics (more than wrestling). So if there’s a comicbook equivalent of Dave Meltzer, I don’t want to know him. Some things SHOULD be fun.

Some things SHOULD be fun. I absolutely love this sentiment. Also, I've never done this before, but would you mind if I quoted your "There’s a time and a place for some deep and profound social commentary - and there’s a time and a place for Condiment King." in my signature? That is such an awesome line.
