    “Plus we’re an unelected judge, jury and executioner”

    Which continuity is this? Batman and Superman mostly beat people up and drop them off for the authorities, you could make a valid argument about whether it’s their right to use violence at all but they’re generally not acting like judges or juries at all, and definitely not executioners unless it’s some weird offshoot story.

      Also Superman almost always goes out of his way to make sure that nobody dies just because he’s fighting a giant robot. I don’t think these are good characters for this joke.

      Executioners don’t just execute the death penalty, historically.

        They didn’t just beat people up, though, right?
