Aquaman/Batman Bromance?

I was rereading some comics the other day and came across this classic Bob Haney resolution to a tale told in The Brave and the Bold 114. Bob was notorious for not really caring about DC continuity... so much so that Brave and the Bold team-ups are said to have happened on Earth-Haney, in his honor. It explains how Batman could team-up with Wildcat (who lived on Earth-2), and others. A classic ending to most of these tales involved the friendly handshake between heroes coupled with some corny dialogue. Don't believe me?? Check this out:
"But take him all in all, he's... beautiful!"
You don't see dialogue like that in comics today!! I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing though...
