11 Things Justice League Must Avoid

1. Making Batman Into A Meme

The recent full trailer for Justice League featured an amusing exchange where Barry Allen asked Bruce Wayne, "What are your superpowers again?", to which Bruce simply retorted, "I'm rich."

It's an entertaining play on the long-standing Internet meme that basically has the same punchline, but hopefully this is basically a one-off gag rather than an active attempt to crack wise about Bruce's wealth and Batman's actual lack of superpowers.

There's a fine tonal tightrope to walk here, so hopefully the gags about Bruce and his superhero persona won't undermine his psychological complexity and tactical intelligence.

Any other mistakes you think Justice League desperately needs to avoid? Shout them out in the comments!
