How The Justice League Really Despise Each Other (Spoilers)

Last month saw the release of Justice League #44 from Robert Venditti and Xermanico, which saw the Justice League influenced to reveal their innermost resentments towards each other. And like a celebration of Festivus, they call come to the fore, courtesy of The Spectre going wild with his spirit of vengeance stuff. With each member of the Justice League having their own resentments to share. Batman to Superman over Clark not telling Bruce that he was going to spill the word about his secret identity to the world.

While John Stewart, the Green Lantern of the Green Lantern Corps has a bit of an inferiority complex when it comes to Superman.

One that Superman agrees with. So it continues in today's Justice League #45, now drawn by Eddie Barrows, with the vengeance of the Spectre exhibiting itself physically. Luckily Batman was wearing his big boy suit.

Flash going against the Green Lantern's military background and being taken for granted…

The royals engaging in a monarchy-off.

Batman burns Green Lantern with his own green flame.

Superman and Flash have a fastest-ever grudge going back decades…

While Bruce Wayne is a big old hypocrite.

Green Lantern brings the burn back to the Flash.

While Batman gets to have the last word.

Obviously everything gets sorted out. But something does make be want this all the time. Should Batman and Superman be friends, even if their mothers have/had the same name? Also, that reminds me, when is Clark going to tell Batman that his parents are alive again? Also, that they don't have to be contained in a Hannibal Lecter get-up?
