Giant coffee containers (well, any giant props) would seem to indicate Batman (or Robin). Your 'touch of deduction' comment would also seem to point to Batman.
BTW, what was the answer to the last stupid hero quote (the one about the brownstone)?
"Correct, Boy Wonder!" It was Robin, to Batman, after escaping from a storage area full of stolen coffee and sugar. It was war-time; those products were rationed, and were valuable commodities.
B exploded something to get them out and coffee and sugar were everywhere ... including Robin's ears, I guess.
The "our hero should do that" was also a clue; Robin was too young to drink coffee!
All those hours I spent as a kid reading the black and white reprints my library had of Batman (from the 50's I think) have finally paid off!
If there was one thing you learned from those stories, it was that Batwoman and Batgirl were tough crimefighters, but more interested in getting Batman and Robin out for a date. If there was a second thing you learned, it was that Gotham city was seriously overrun by giant props.
Those were fun stories. I'm gonna have to put those on the list of reprints to eventually acquire.

One hero said it to another after escape a death-trap.

Ah, Methane, truly you are wise!

As for the Brownstone quote, gimme a sec...
Ah. The Brownstone quote was Barry Allen to Batman.
Some wacked out Silver Age plot about gangs with superspeed sneakers.
