Crossword Genius

Superheroes, these military servants? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

batmen

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'superheroes' is the first definition.
(more than one Batman)

'these military servants?' is the second definition.
(a batman is a military officer's assistant)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
