How do Aquaman and Batman get along in Justice League?

The Justice League might be the combined forces of DC’s greatest heroes, but they aren’t instantly the world’s greatest team right away. You’ve got a bunch of superheroes who are used to doing their own thing and not taking orders. And as Ben Affleck explains, that will be exemplified in the relationship between Batman and Aquaman in Justice League:

"You know, Aquaman’s a very strong character, played by a very strong actor with a very strong personality, so I don’t think he’s the sort of guy who at any point in his life takes orders from people. Jason Momoa, he’s got a very strong, stubborn, independent, powerful energy. So it’s not like any of these characters show up and immediately go like, ‘Yes sir, what should I do, Mr. Wayne?’It’s about like trying to get a lot of disparate people who are used to being very powerful and independent to try to work together. And it’s about how hard it is for them to all get along. And there are some characters who really hit it off with each other, some that don’t hit it off with each other, almost come to blows, and it’s about trying to contain that. So it’s not an easy ride trying to get this group to come together."

Well of course nobody gets along with Batman right away, he’s Batman. That’s what Superman is for. You know, he’s the mediator and the peacekeeper and the guy everybody likes. Except you killed him in Batman v Superman so he’s not around to do that, so now you have to waste time in Justice League not only getting everybody to get along, but brining Superman back from pointless death. Good job guys!
