Batman with Jackson Hyde and Speedy.
The premise of Batman: Fortress by Gary Whitta, Darick Robertson, Diego Rodriguez, and Simon Bowland seems very simple at first: with the Earth trapped in a global blackout due to a mysterious signal, Batman and the remaining Justice League members struggle to find the cause whilst power remains down. However, the series soon diverged from the crisis at hand, ignoring the larger issues the blackout likely caused.
Superman’s Human Heart Was Nowhere To Be Found in This Story When the Earth Needed Superman, the Man of Steel Moved Batman: Fortress clarified that the Green Lanterns were ordered off-world due to galactic politics that allowed the aliens to invade Earth’s atmosphere. However, unlike the Green Lanterns, who belong to an official organization, Superman should have been very present when humanity needed him most. Not just for Metropolis, but for a globe that needed a hero.
Batman receiving Superman’s powers at the end of Fortress is a slap in the face to his decisions throughout the story. Batman: Fortress Could Have Been DC's Perfect Pandemic Story But There's Still a Huge Gap While DC Comics have made light references here and there to a pandemic , the only specific reference is entirely contained in Danny Devito’s non-canon Penguin story,"Bird Cat Love" by Devito, Dan Mora, Tamra Bonvillain, and Troy Peteri from Gotham City Villains Anniversary Giant #1, in which the Penguin and Catwoman steal and release vaccinations worldwide.
