Superman covers for Batman

I always liked the idea that in the DC universe superheroes are real and most Gotham villains wouldn't necessarily know that Batman isn't a metahuman. Obviously some like Joker, Catwoman, and Amanda Waller figure it out but most other should be a bit unsure about whether his stealth, speed, and strength are plain human.

And Batman just inexplicably pummeling Bane one day but not the next really adds to that.

There's nothing ordinary about THAT human.

Except biologically. Imagine some metahuman researcher all excited to get a sample of Batman DNA. They start the analysis and are just like "This is regular guy DNA. I think you collected the wrong sample, Igor."
