Thanks to everyone who commented on the kitty. As for 'Jack' being the name, it would be after my favourite Captain Jack, Jack Sparrow. Sparrow was going to be Jack, but since she was a girl, we went with Sparrow. However, we're considering Norrington currently . He just looks likes he's in a morning coat and spats :)
We went to see Dark Knight last night. It was a good movie, but once was enough for me. Near the end I started wondering if it were ever going to end! I could have really done with it being a 1/2 hour shorter. Good performances, though it didn't have that great 'look' of the first one.

I don't think they would get along. Bruce puts forth this air-head personality that would drive Tony bonkers.
As for their alter-egos? No again.
Iron Man may be angsty, but Batman broods. And, by that, I mean he broods. So much so, sometimes you want to hit him upside the head and tell him to go to therapy...
Batman doesn't kill. Iron Man does.
I can't remember where I read it, but someone talked about the difference between warriors and heroes. Heroes capture the bad guys and put them in jail. Warriors try to capture the bad guys to bring them to justice, but if worse comes to worse, they'll kill the bad guy so they can't get away.
And, I don't think a hero would be comfortable with a warrior.
"You killed him!"
"He was going to get away."
"You killed him!"
"If he had gotten away, a lot more people would've been killed."
"You killed him!"
etc...

Tony Stark/Ironman creates, sells, and uses guns.
Of course, that means major snarkiness when they meet... No! No! Shut up, brain!

But, even if they don't, still... It would be cool.

The entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JLA/Avengers) for the JLA/Avengers limited series over at wikipedia shows them right next to each other in the cast picture --

Damn mind... It's plotting against me.
