Sounds pretty limited. We had one back home everyone knew. We called him "Superman." [Bruce pauses for a moment. Not the first, but certainly the first public metahuman, to a degree.]
He was a good man. He did what he could, when he could.
[When he hated Clark, he hated the carelessness of it all. The destruction and the death that followed in his wake. He was powerless to stop it as Bruce, mistaken to stop it as the Batman.
But he knew better than anyone: sometimes you had to get messy to get clean.]
He was one of our metahumans. There's supposed to be others, too. One woman tried to destroy the world and enslave it.
[Enchantress wasn't much of a secret, to a degree. Besides, with the amount of things gunning for Earth? It really didn't mean much without a name and a description. It wasn't his call either to start listing off the likes of Barry, Victor, Diana, and Arthur, much less anything in Waller's files.]

But, who knows. They might just be hiding.
