Lisa had insisted that Patton Oswalt was right: Batman was the only DC superhero who was allowed to brood. No one else in that 'verse could do it. Superman was many things but he did not brood. Jeff agreed with her on that score. Christopher Reeve was the only Superman worth caring about. Not that it mattered now. Thank you, Lord, he thought. Thank you for making sure that Zack Snyder will never make another superhero film. You did good. This one time, you did what we asked you to do. Now, Lord… I just need one more favor…
Lisa believed that Batman was uniquely permitted to brood among the DC superheroes, with Superman being too optimistic for such an attitude. Jeff concurred, asserting that Christopher Reeve's portrayal was the definitive version of Superman. He felt a sense of relief, grateful that directors like Zack Snyder would no longer contribute to the superhero genre.
In this moment of reflection, Jeff expressed his gratitude to a higher power, feeling that his plea had been answered. He hoped for one more favor, hinting at lingering desires concerning the future of superhero films.
