Neogenic Nightmare Chapter 1: The Insidious Six - S2-E1
Stupidity: When the Kingpin is breaking all of the supervillains out of prison, Shocker, Scorpion and Mysterio all have their costumes, weapons and gadgets conveniently stored at the prison, which makes their escape easier. Surely a prison wouldn't keep superpowered weapons and costumes in the same place where the inmates are being held. They would be stored in a federal evidence locker.

Strategy X - S1-E1
Other mistake: When Nightcrawler pumps his fist in elation while standing in front of the mirror, his arm casts no reflection. (00:09:52)

Trivia: The opening crawl makes reference to Palpatine announcing his return from the dead through a broadcast. The film itself doesn't reveal what was said in the broadcast, but it was revealed in a Star Wars Fortnite event. The exact broadcast is as follows: "At last the work of generations is complete. The great error is corrected. The day of victory is at hand. The day of revenge. The day of the Sith."

Trivia: Joaquin Phoenix won the Oscar for Best Actor for his role in this film. This marked the second time an actor won an Oscar for playing a character that was played previously by another actor that also won an Oscar for their role. The other time was Phoenix's costar in this film, Robert De Niro, winning Best Supporting Actor for playing the younger version of Vito Corleone in "The Godfather Part II," following Marlon Brando winning Best Actor for the first film.

When I was a little kid I checked out a Batman graphic novel from the library. It had a lot of his rogues gallery in it, most if not all of whom were killed in it. I specifically remember Catwoman being shot and her dying words were along the lines of "Batman, I'm so cold." Batman then kissed her before she died. Does anyone know what the name of this graphic novel/storyline is?

Spider Wars, Chapter 1: I Really, Really Hate Clones - S5-E12
Character mistake: When the group of Spider-Men are breaking into the Kingpin's building through the front door, Octo-Spidey uses a laser to cut a circle in the door and then proceeds to tear the door off its hinges with his robotic arms. Since he was just able to simply tear the door off, there was no need for him to cut the hole in the door in the first place. It's not like he needed to reach through the hole with one of the arms to unlock it from the other side.

Trivia: Madame Web is voiced by Stan Lee's wife Joan. When Madame Web appears before Stan Lee in the series finale, he asks Spider-Man who that exotic lady is. When Spider-Man and Madame Web are talking about Stan Lee in the final scene of the series, Madame Web remarks that she thinks Stan Lee is truly special.

Spider Wars, Chapter 2: Farewell Spider-Man - S5-E13
Character mistake: When Stan Lee is asking Spider-Man what he plans to do after saving all of reality, he responds by saying to find the real Mary Jane. Moments later in the final scene, Madame Web tells Spider-Man that she is taking him to find the real Mary Jane, which elicits an incredulous response from Spider-Man, as if he didn't know that was already the plan.

Spider Wars, Chapter 2: Farewell Spider-Man - S5-E13
Revealing mistake: When Spider-Man is web-slinging with Stan Lee, they pass the same group of buildings twice, revealing it to be recycled animation.

Spider Wars, Chapter 2: Farewell Spider-Man - S5-E13
Continuity mistake: When Spider-Carnage has Gwen Stacy hostage, she is bound by portions of his symbiote. When Spider-Man frees her, she is suddenly bound by webbing instead of the symbiote.

Spider Wars, Chapter 2: Farewell Spider-Man - S5-E13
Continuity mistake: When Scarlet Spider is saying that they need to destroy the bomb, you can see one of the arms and tattered costume of the Man-Spider behind him, even though the Beyonder had already teleported Man-Spider to another dimension. It appears to be a shot from Spider-Man and Scarlet Spider's fight with Man-Spider that wasn't used and ended up being repurposed, rather than taking the time to animate a new shot altogether.

Spider Wars, Chapter 1: I Really, Really Hate Clones - S5-E12
Continuity mistake: When the group of Spider-Men are observing the Green Goblin and the Kingpin's henchmen from inside the ventilation shaft, the outside edge of the shaft cover is first shown to be on the wall outside of the shaft, and then inside the shaft itself when the Armored Spider-Man pulls the cover off.

Spider Wars, Chapter 1: I Really, Really Hate Clones - S5-E12
Trivia: After the Scarlet Spider tells Spider-Man the convoluted details of his reality and how he isn't sure whether he is a clone of the Spider-Man of his own reality or vice versa, Spider-Man responds by saying it all sounds like a bad comic book plot. This is a reference to the Spider-Man comics that featured a similar plotline and was much derided by fans.

Secret Wars, Chapter 3: Doom - S5-E11
Continuity mistake: After the Beyonder ends the war, he teleports everyone to a floating chess board in space, with Dr. Doom lying near the edge. When the shot changes, Doom has moved closer to the middle of the board. He is unconscious so he couldn't have moved.

Secret Wars, Chapter 3: Doom - S5-E11
Audio problem: When the Lizard says "Yes, Spider-Man," his mouth is wide open and motionless.
25th Jan 2020
Secret Wars, Chapter 3: Doom - S5-E11
Revealing mistake: After Dr. Doom has stolen the Beyonder's powers, he demonstrates the powers to Ben Grimm in his throne room by teleporting Red Skull, Dr. Octopus and Smythe off the planet. Next he teleports all the heroes to his throne room, and the shot of all the heroes is from two episodes prior when all the heroes were battling the Lizard. This shot of the heroes also includes Ben Grimm in form as the Thing, meaning Ben Grimm was in two places at once. Spider-Man, the Lizard and the rest of the Fantastic 4 were also already prisoners in Doom's castle, which means they were all in two places at once as well.

Secret Wars, Chapter 1: Arrival - S5-E9
Other mistake: When Spider-Man is scrolling through his options of which member of the X-Men that he can teleport to the planet, the picture of Cyclops shows part of his yellow "bandolier" colored blue.

Question: Are lightsabers capable of cutting through any substance, or are there objects in the franchise (even if the examples are no longer canon) that have been specifically mentioned as being resistant?
Answer: There are several substances in canon and non-canon that are resistant to lightsabers. Beskar, also known as Mandalorian iron or Mandalorian steel was used to make armor and weapons by the Mandalorian people. Cortosis was an ore that, when heavily refined, stopped lightsaber blades and blaster bolts. Phrik was another metal, used in Darth Sidious' lightsabers and the electrostaffs used by Grievous' robot guards. Neuranium was a very, very dense and heavy metal that was partially resistant to lightsabers, but was more often used to shield from scanners. The species orbalisk and vonduun crab had carapaces that could withstand the blow of a lightsaber.
Answer: The Force Awakens features stormtroopers using the "Z6 riot control baton", which they use to block the lightsaber when Finn uses it.
Is it the baton itself that is resistant, or the energy surge around it? Because I know Snoke's guards were able to block lightsabers with energized weapons as well.
Yes you see them in Episode III as well when fighting on the bridge of the chancellor's ship. My guess is the energy blocks the lightsaber. It's logical they would come up with some sort of technology to block lightsabers if materials that can block them are that rare.
Answer: There are a handful of items, but I don't believe any have been mentioned or shown in the film series (other than another lightsaber itself). Mandalorian Iron (also known as Beskar) and Phrix are resistant to lightsaber attacks and have been mentioned in the TV show "Star Wars: The Clone Wars", but I don't recall if their resistance is specifically mentioned in the show.

Answer: All Stars #17?
Based on my Google search results, "All-Star Batman" is a more recent publication. The year I read the book in question was probably 1993, so it was probably published in the late 80s or early 90s.

I believe the answer should have been DC Super-Stars #17. That issue features the death of the Earth Two Selina Kyle as part of the origin story of her daughter, Helena Kyle (The Huntress).

Someone on Reddit guessed it was Batman Annual 15 (Armageddon 2001), and based on the panels that are pictured on the website of the link they provided, it appears to be that one.
Phaneron ★
That's not it either, unfortunately. I specifically remember Killer Croc being in this, because it was the first time I ever heard of him, and he didn't debut until 1983, six years after DC Superstars #17. I think Batman killed Joker at the end out of revenge for Catwoman. With so many other characters being killed in it, I'm pretty certain it was an Elseworld story and not connected to whatever the main DC universe is or was at the time.
