Quote1 Superman and I have an ongoing debate about what would happen if we were to use the same tactics as our enemies. It always ends the same. I tell him my concerns and he smiles and says I worry too much.

Synopsis for "Who Are the Secret Six?, Part One"

Clark Kent is working in his cubicle at the Daily Planet when he gets a message from Batman requesting him to report to the Justice League Watchtower immediately. Superman arrives and finds that all the Justice League members have been killed. Superman then pukes a green substance as Batman reveals that the air is filled with Kryptonite. Batman explains that he's killing Superman because he knows their story always ends with them fighting to their death, so he decided to plan ahead. Batman is revealed to be The Batman Who Laughs.

Back on Earth-0, Batman is talking to Commissioner Gordon at the rooftops of Gotham City when Superman arrives. Gordon tells them about a boy who's been kidnapped by a "Laughing Superman". Gordon gives them the clues he has and Batman and Superman rush to find the boy. Batman asks Superman what would he do if Batman ever went out of control, hearing this Superman accuses Batman of interrogating him. When they reach the location, it's revealed to be The Batman Who Laughs' Batcave. They find traces of Nth-Metal and The Joker Serum in the batarang molds. Superman moves a chess piece which activates a projector which shows Who Laughs' plan for infecting everyone with the serum. A robin attacks the pair of them and is revealed to be Billy Batson, who transforms into Shazam.
