Ok, I was wondering if someone could clear this up. In JLI, Batman and Captain Marvel were on the team at the same time, and Bruce knew of Marvel's alter ego as Billy Batson. This fact is later reaffirmed in the Power of Shazam ongoing, when Bats visits Fawcett City to get Billy's help to stop a crime ring he's been investigating.
So, how come in the Superman/Batman: Public Enemies arc, Batman acts all surprised when he sees Billy lying on the ground instead of Captain Marvel? It's like he doesn't even know who the hell he is. I'm assuming Loeb either forgot that Bats knew his identity or just didn't know to begin with. Any other explanations?

continuity error.
people need to lay off loeb. he did some excellent work back then.
Why don't they give everyone in the JLA, JSA, Titans, BoP etc a bunch of Legion flight rings? At least all the ones who can't fly? Instead the non-fliers have to run around all the time responding to disasters, which can cost lives, or get carried everywhere, or get rescued when they fall off buildings during fights or when their team aircraft constantly get shot down..
I know they are 31st century tech but the major heroes are well aware of them and how useful they are. I mean it's not like Bats and Steel couldn't just go grab some Kryptonian tech from Supes and whip something up? They employ teleporters after all so what's the difference? Frankly, even Zatanna could just say "!sgnir thgilf noigel enoyreve evig"
Yeah that would take away from alot of characters if they could fly. Like it would actually make the character less interesting or just too similar to other characters. Imagine batman could fly. Like he wouldn't glide with his cap, he wouldn't need his grappling hook thing, it would also take away from his sneaky progress (as in it would make it less impressive if he just float to thew ceiling or something.

I prefer his DC work infinitely compared to his Marvel work as of late.
his dc work was all before his life went down the shitter. the guy had an actual reason for his work suffering, and people still give him stick over it. it's sad, imo.
