OK, comics ninjas, I'm searching for a specific issue of a relatively recent Superman comic. It's part of a series wherein Supes is infected by something and getting sicker, Lois has been acting bitchy until it's revealed she's an imposter of some sort and the real Lois has been missing for ages. Superman goes to the best detective he can think of: Batman.
It's a terrific issue, with Superman getting pissy about why Batman doesn't show any emotion, until Batman quietly tells him about some of the things he's seen and how he doesn't dare get emotional, and Batman is thinking about how often searches for missing people end up badly.
I think I own it in one of the myriad comics boxes, but I'm looking it up for someone online.

Watterson himself looks exactly like Calvin's dad.
