jaydawg: Also Joker knows, but appearantly doesnt care

Since when?

 

[Phantasm]

knows about what?!

 

[BigGeorge87]

knows about what?!

Batman's identity.

 

[Lord Nemesis]

Early 40's about 42

That old? Damn.

 

[snipe]

Really, Richard is better than Dick...

Nothing is better than Dick.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Also Joker knows, but appearantly doesnt care.

The Joker doesn't know about Bruce Wayne being Batman because he doesn't care he's fixated on Batman

 

[hippie_hunter]

Nothing is better than Dick.

Ain't it the truth

 

[hulkamania85]

Does Batman really have a spray for everything? I know he has anti-shark spray and anti-whale spray. That is a great visual, Batman vs. a whale.

From hells heart, I spray at thee!

Another question:

What is Batman's favorite cereal?


I'm thinking he's a Corn Chex kind of guy.


You said stupid questions.

 

[Amazing Afroman]

That old? Damn.

Well, people do always call him old man!

 

[Lord Nemesis]

True.

and Batman's reaction to the whole incident seemed...lukewarm...weird!He should have been more furious at the Joker...instead he offered the clown help?!!!!

Joker was trying to disavow any responcibility for his actions by saying he'd just simply snapped after falling into that vat of acid. He'd had a bad day, gone completely off his rocker & from then on, he cannot be accountable for his actions.

Batman had intended to rehabilitate Joker. The news that Gordon was still sane was meant to strike a blow to his pysche. And Joker had clearly been repressing an amount of guilt. He realized he could have stopped himself from harming Barbara.

The Joker doesn't know about Bruce Wayne being Batman because he doesn't care he's fixated on Batman

Essentially, Joker IS Joker. He stopped being a normal man the day his hair turned green & his skin got bleached. He has no secret identity. His "mask" never comes off. But that's okay... when he wasn't Joker, he was a schmuck. So being a homicidal maniac that other criminals respect & fear is better than being a schmuck.

 

[Spider-Kurt]

Since when?

In the Death in the Family tpb,not long after killing Jason Todd/Robin II,the Joker gains diplomatic immunity for his varies crimes after becoming the Ayatollah(sp?).On his way to a podium to deliver a speech,the Joker passes by Bruce Wayne,slows down and begins laughing at him if I'm not mistaken.Bruce himself wonders if the Joker knows his secret.

 

[Spider-Kurt]

who is prometheus?

I heard that he beat the JLA one on one and that batman doesn't know who the heck he is.

He's also been refered to as the "Anti-Batman".An orphan at an early age due to his criminal parents being gunned down by a cop,the man who would become Promethius dedicated his life to evil. Like the Dark Knight, he trained himself physically and mentally to near peak perfection. Uses computer files of his opponents that are linked directly to his brain to help defeat them.Can break into the JLA Watchtower,defeat all the Legue members but didn't prepare for Catwoman whipping him in his testicles causing his defeat.

 

[Spider-Kurt]

Vesper Fairchild among others, in else worlds he did Talia, but in continuity he never has, according to #616 but bruce is a bachelor of course he gets some.

Was he doing Poison Ivy during the Long Halloween?(no pun intended)

 

[Couchpotato-man]

http://ksacomics.com/killing/joke.htm This site has a scan of every page of The Killing Joke, which imo is one of the greatest comic books ever.

Thanks I just read it. I really didn't like the idea of Batman laughing at the Joke with Joker at the end after what he done to Barbara. I liked the book just not that scene. I figured I'd read the first 2 pages jump to the middle then jump to the last 4 or 5 but I ended up reading every single page. Thank again.

 

[TheBlackTiger]

I have a stupid question. Its about Golden age Bats. I heard he use to kill criminals by tossing them off rooftops. What issues can I find this in? Also does anyone have any pics of this? Oh and why does my alarm clock keep blinking 12:00? Can I sue them for making me late to work?

 

[Wolverine_05]

I guess I should just ask here instead of starting a thread. I read the comics off and on, the last thing I read was Gotham Knights 55. I want to know what happens with the Joker, does he confront the cop who murdered his wife and anything else that relates to that.

Let's see,Batman debuted in Detective Comics 27 in 1939.In his early appearences he used to kill crimals by shooting them or even breaking their necks.By the time Robin debuted in 1940,Batman stopped killing and gradually became sillier and sillier as he entered the next decades.

As for your clock...you obviously need more prep time for setting it.

Spoiler

Hush beats the crap out of him, Joker wanders away to his amusement park where he's welcomed by smiling midgets. He even stripped naked on his way there... So he's hanging out naked with some midgets...

[Cachete25]

I gotta a stupid question. In DV, Gordon has a son. What ever happened to him?

 

[Robin91939]

Jim's first wife, Barbara, divorced Gordon because he loved being a cop more than he loved her. They had one child together, James Jr. Barbara (batgirl/oracle) was Jim's adopted daughter. When Barbara (gordon's 1st wife) left him she took little Jim jr. with her, and Jim sr. kept Barbara (batgirl/oracle).
