Chimera-gui posted:While I was out and about, I came across a Harley Quinn comic in which one of the stories apparently involved her trying to date Bruce Wayne though I did have enough time to read it. Not so much a break down as a realisation. The episode had some interesting metacommentary on child celebrity, but the fact that, story wise, that was Baby-Dahl's purpose, and the second time she appeared was... Not so great. "Us freaks should stick together" combined with "King Croc and Baby-Dahl in abusive relationship where he's leading her on"? Nooooot the best combo. (EDIT: The first made me uncomfortable because it was well written. The second made me uncomfortable because everybody who was being terrible was being terrible for the sake of being terrible.") Thing is, she is a great character, and a good writer could bring her back. But I don't really trust DC for that, and I definitely wouldn't trust Rocksteady/WB anymore.

The fact that Rocksteady steadfastly refuses to acknowledge Condiment King cements my theory that they hate fun camp.

Wasn't Condiment King under mindcontrol? Some Madhatter thing to make rich people lose their money since that's how asset forfeiture works.

It was the mad hatter's tech, but it was the Joker doing it. You see, the Condiment King was a judge in a comedy contest, and the Joker was upset that last year he didn't win. So this year he decided to mind control the judges into being pathetic supervillains.

That's not fair. He's shown up as a supervillain a few times in the comics. Y'know... before he was killed.

He relished all those opportunities to fight Batman. He was never able to curry favor with other villains though. Alas. Soy long, Condiment King.

Thyme is a spice. Not a condiment. It doesn't even go on burgers. This is stupid. Everyone ruined it. Stop the puns now. It's over. You know who a silly villain is? Calendar Man. He's very silly.

The room with the Joker gas is kinda where this game started to lose me. The solution to the puzzle feels like it should be lethal for the thug--I mean, you're dropping him on his head from 20 feet up into a cloud of loving Joker gas, for crying out loud--yet it's hand-waved because obviously Batman doesn't kill anyone (this is far from the only thing the series hand-waves and it just gets more ridiculous as time goes on). I was actually stuck in there for a good 10-15 minutes because of that and it definitely soured my opinion of the experience. I only played it for another seven or eight hours from this point before I gave up on it entirely and just returned the game. Haven't touched the series since. I'll be the first to admit I'm not a huge fan of Batman, but all that aside, the game just bored me. Watched LPs of the rest of them. Asylum definitely has the strongest story in my opinion, and the rest of the series kind of just goes off the loving rails to the point I can't take it seriously at all.

David Hayter wrote the script for X-Men and cowrote X-Men 2. No confirmation on Keifer Sutherland's involvement in X-Men 3.

You get a unique game over if you let the inmate die from the gas.

X-Men was co-written by David Hayter, who came on late in that script's life. X-Men 2 was entirely written by Hayter and no X-Men movie that I know of that came after involved him in any way.
