I actually would have no problem at all with storylines dealing with relations between characters--like, convincing Batman to join the JLA or getting him and Dick to talk again. :) As long as there's lots of punching bad guys in between... ;)

I absolutely want to play one of those crazy Japanese dating games that's set in the DCU.
What with my wanting to date the entire DCU and all.
I would never stop playing.
