Summary
Lex Luthor knew how to stop Superman from flying—he just had to fly him somewhere else first.
He thought his bases were covered. Then the alien's words echoed back to him, revealing the bat-shaped hole in his otherwise genius plan.
Batman was a problem. Batman was the one rumored to monitor Superman’s vitals, who had ships that could cross galaxies, who likely had contingencies for red-sun scenarios, and—more importantly—the one man who would never stop looking.
If Superman vanished, Batman would be on his heels before Lex had even cleared the atmosphere.
So Batman had to go too.

Superbat is stranded on a red sun planet <3

Omg this is such a fun read. With such attention to detail down to every username.
Also, I LOVE the use of detail-summary tags as Reddit treads, it works brilliantly in such low-tech, no-stylesheet-required way.

Summary
New to AO3 (or even not so new)? Have questions? Dazed and confused?
...do your notes in chapter one stay stuck to the most recent last chapter? 😉
Does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight?
Start here.🙂 DON'T PANIC ! 🙂
This is a beginner's guide / primer / introduction for readers and writers (possibly better titled “Guide to the Archives”, as someone suggested on Facebook — though that makes me feel like Virgil to some Dantean cerchio or bolgia, prompting me to think instead “Guìdo della archivio” [my 13-14c Genoan is a bit rusty, seriously, so I hope that I got that right]). My later tutorials in this series cover somewhat more advanced stuff, but I've seen so many people (sometimes long-timers) in need of the basic stuff that I finally decided to write this.
One Stop Shop-'n'-Drop? Not quite, but it explains a lot of things that you might not find easily (in some cases, not for years), or might assume work like some other site (which is a hit or miss assumption), and will point you to a number of resources.

Summary
or, How Tim Drake Found A Family, Became A Photojournalist, Learned To Love Coffee, and Grew Up, not necessarily in that order.
Tim Drake is thirteen, runs the famous BatWatch blog that has spiraled hilariously out of control, has absentee parents that suit his purposes just fine, is training himself to run the streets at night, and is doing absolutely peachy, thank you.
Alfred and Jason disagree, and get Dick and Bruce involved in figuring out their weird nextdoor neighbor kid’s life. Everything goes uphill from there.

Summary
His feet hit hard and his knees buckle beneath him. It hurts when his hands skid on the decorative rug, the price he pays for catching himself to keep from flopping face-first into the ground. He's dumbstruck and just kneels there for several long moments staring at his hands, at the bloom of rug burn forming before his eyes.
"I can't fly," he says dumbly.
"Noted. Any pain?" Bruce asks.
Clark's world falls apart, and Superman is to blame. When he's at his lowest, Bruce Wayne gives him a gift: a room that strips him of his powers. A room where he can learn what it means to be human.

Devastating character study on Clark and though it's all from Clark's perspective somehow also Bruce. Even all the supporting characters feels so well rounded and thought through.
