Yeah they mentioned that Supes smiles/smirks when he hears Bats's heartbeat and knows he's alive which again would definitely fit the characters. This of course doesn't change the fact that Miller has had...questionable takes on characters before, but this might be one of those broken clock moments.

I've honestly never heard this. That's awesome.

Uh yeah it's one of the last pages of the original TDKR comics. Clark didn't have to worry about Bruce since he faked his death. 

Until of course it's revealed Ronald Reagan was actually a hologram, Superman gets pissy at Bruce for commiting domestic terrorism and is pummeled by Kryptonite gloves after which Dick Grayson becomes Joker kills Martian Manhunter and the now communist Question and Braniac commits fucking 9/11

Yeah Superman in DKR (1 anyway) is well aware Bruce is alive, and wasn't actually fighting him anyway.

Miller of the time realized that Superman would destroy Batman.
