Don't bother trying to start the engine. I just frosted the connection to the gas tank with my super-breath! Even if I hadn't, I could knock this van over with a nudge of my elbow. Come along, and at least spare yourself that embarrassment.

Synopsis for Superman and Batman: "Lonely in a Crowd"
Superman and Sonik attempt to keep rock star Marlon Monroe safe from murder attempts, while Batman tries to find out who has been puncturing holes in the plastic bubble-dwelling of a boy who has no immune system against disease. Eventually, Batman finds out that the responsible party for damaging the bubble is the kid himself, in an attempt to be allowed to return home. Meanwhile, Superman and Sonik save Marlon Monroe from one of his own servants, who has developed killer robots to eliminate the pop star.
