I liked the episode because it shows that Batman can hold his own against Superman and I thought it was a neat idea to have Lois Lane fall for Bruce Wayne. It is an interesting twist that Lois is in love with Superman, and she has right under her nose Clark Kent the mild-mannered, unassuming reporter, the man behind Superman, but she does not think he is worth bothering with as far as a relationship is concerned. On the other hand, she thinks suave, sophisticated, and debonair Bruce Wayne is wonderful and falls in love with him, but she finds she cannot stand the man he really is – Batman.
