Is Batman stopping Mr. Freeze by smashing a thermos full of chicken soup on him the most brutally savage takedown ever?

This is probably the worst writing I've seen in 1960s/1970s super hero cartoon and that's saying something. Magneto went full doomer mode once the gun didn't fly out of Reed's hands.
It is pretty awful. When the police showed up Mags could have easily just grabbed their guns or even their cars. But I guess Reed's trick just destroyed all his confidence and reduced him to a feeble old man.
Nope. Do not reference Frank Miller.Nah that would still be ASBAR Batman beating GL with lots of yellow paint.

Ugh the writing is awful.
Yeah you're right, I take it back.
They were fighting the queen of Fables, and losing bad because she gets power from fiction and imagination. So the JLA distract her while the Flash jams her into the most unimaginative book he could find. That year's tax code
Sounds quite unrealistic. Billionaires, millionaires and corporations put in a lot of hard work to get legislators to write our tax code so it includes quite a lot of imaginative ways for them to accumulate even more wealth and hoard money.
You spoiled yourself, the next time she showed up it was because she used the imagination of tax lawyers and accountants to power up and escape
It's so incomprehensible that a being that uses imagination to fuel her magic couldn't understand!
Crazy Steve doesn't deserve our attention.
Also Frank Miller made Wonder Woman call a man a "sperm bank" fuck him.
Wait, that bit from Harley Quinn was legitimately in the comics?
Thats fucked up.
Nah that would still be ASBAR Batman beating GL with lots of yellow paint.
lmao, I always thought this was a stylistic decision. Im assuming GL is weak against......the color yellow? Or were you joking?
Idk what I just read, but I want more?Nah that would still be ASBAR Batman beating GL with lots of yellow paint.
It was a weird weakness choice when character first came around. And the other Green Lantern was weak to wood!
Now, yellow just represents one of their enemies, not a particular weakness.
Reed really revealed the trick while the cops have METAL cars, handcuffs, and guns right next to Magneto? I feel like Reed didn't think this through.
Then I at least need context lol
Senestro?
Yeah, Sinestro, and more broadly, the concept of fear. Now, the Lanterns have colors for different emotions. There are Yellow Lanterns now!
This is genuinely the worst writing I've read in a long time.Nah that would still be ASBAR Batman beating GL with lots of yellow paint.

I mean, these are attempts at the superhero trying to be clever to take them down. Batman could have used a heat explosive or anything of the sort, but instead he chose to bring a school thermos with fucking chicken soup to stop Mr. Freeze. And he did it in a room full of people that watched him fall and be rendered helpless by something you give a kid when they have a stuffy nose.
I'm telling you, Batman would have ended his super villain career with that move in real life and Mr. Freeze would have never been able to show his face again.
All Star Batman which so absurd that it feels like it would only make sense if Frank Miller is parodying himself. Nice Jim Lee art though.
Defrosting your windshield with hot water can actually cause it to crack. I'm guessing it's the same idea here.
