re: In the DC world, where are Metropolis and Gotham City?

If Superman and Batman live about an hour or two away from each other(as shown on that atlas). Why wouldn't Superman help out when Bane has an entire city held hostage in an internationally televised spectacle? Batman hadn't done anything for months to help the situation so you'd think Superman would say frick it and fly in there faster than a speeding bullet, locate the bomb with his X-ray vision, fly it into orbit, and then go beat up Bane and the gang.

they have regional contracts that they've signed with the justice league

superman cant go to gotham unless invited by batman and vice versa

but anyone can go into the water, if its international waters, so aquaman gets screwed
