So they don't actually WANT fangirls. Always kinda suspected as much.
She's not just a blob of energy, she's also a 14-year-old hormone bomb.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Well, truth be told, I'd prefer it if Batman were somewhat less of a dick. Not, like, "Let's get those evildoers, chum!", but less of an I-will-destroy-the-psyches-of-everyone-who-crosses- my-path-but-especially-my-"team"-when-I'm-actually acknowledging-that-I-have-a-team.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I kinda like the dickishness. Now, there are times where I think it bleeds into stupidity (like War Games), but the whole destroying-the-souls-of-all-he-touches has a certain charm.
Not a very sustainable one, I admit.

I mean, honestly, I just want Batman to hug Dick, because I'm actually tired of Dick's bottomless cavern of need for Batman's approval.

And my bias is that I love how Cass thinks (nay, knows) this is an upgrade from her previous paternal figure, and probably figures everyone elses' diamond shoes are too tight.

No, he read it in some interview with a VP at DC.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I don't even know what the other contenders are for greatest comics page ever.
Maybe the famous Spider-Man where he's trapped under all the junk and finally gets free. Or Ben Grimm getting turned back into the Thing by Reed against his will to fight Dr. Doom. Of course, that's just superhero comics.
What are the famous pages?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
My favorite comic book page ever is from "The Death of Speedy" in L&R.

This might be a contender, as might Jean Grey rising as Phoenix for the first time and Captain Mar-Vell dying at Thanos' hands. I can think of a lot of iconic covers, but interior pages aren't popping up as easily.
