BetterToRuleInHell posted:I always thought that too, but apparently there was less than 100 vote difference. If there was a guy robo-calling to spam votes, he probably does get credit for killing Jason. I didn't know that, good work comic book nut job. As of the present timeline, there is only one Joker and he is dead until they get bored and decide to revive him. A prequel arc in B-Money very strongly implies that the old school Red Hood origin is the canonical one for New 52, and the Joker was just a charismatic gang leader. There was vaguery over whether the Joker is some immortal boogeyman that used a Lazarus Pit hidden beneath Gotham to maintain his life over centuries; a theory B-Money ultimately dismissed. The last maybe possibly sighting of Joker was a very eccentric man who had an ominous conversation with a then-amnesiac Bruce shortly before the start of Rebirth. As of now even Bruce grudgingly believes Joker is dead and gone. There was actually a pretty impressive long run twist that Joker went undercover as a bright-eyed, optimistic new orderly at Arkham after his "death" in Death of the Family. He seemingly was doing great progressive things at Arkham and even earned B-Money's trust and respect, when in truth he was laying the groundwork for Endgame.

BetterToRuleInHell posted:Didn't that take place pre-Re-Birth? Yes, all of it did. Rebirth is a continuation of the new 52 story after Bruce computers his brain back to normal. If there's been mention of the Joker in Rebirth, I've missed it. It's my impression Rebirth is not a universal reinvention like Flashpoint/New 52 was, just a numbering reset to entice new readers. Detective Comics hasn't even reset its issue numbers. Am I mistaken? Buck Wildman fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Apr 12, 2017 |

BetterToRuleInHell posted:I ask because the it was pretty explicit that there were 3 distinct Jokers, although I'm not current on the ongoing bat books so I don't know how that's been clarified/expanded upon. Looked into this and I guess you're right. It never really came up in the Batman comic itself, which strikes me as terribly ironic.

Constantine has never really been a combatant, and even in his comics he'd regularly get the poo poo kicked out of him by regular dudes. He's a manipulator and schemer that gets other people to fight for him. I only ever read his earlier vertigo stuff, but in that at least he was basically a regular dude with just enough arcane knowledge to gently caress with people and weasel out of trouble.

SHOCKING CONCLUSION, A DARKER BATMAN, WHAT TWIST COULD COME NE oh it was Jason Todd in a Batman suit, whatever. Legitimately interested to see why Green Arrow would throw in with King Louie though. It would be interesting if he and Black Canary end up being independents trying to balance all sides or something. Buck Wildman fucked around with this message at 18:29 on Apr 19, 2017 |

The punchline was the absolutely horrified look from Canary and Arrow at what looked for all the world like Harley gleefully murdering Lobo in front of them. This was immediately after Harley trying to convince them she was a hero now and to let her team up with them.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:How about some completely unfounded "leaks"? Not joking, I explicitly saw Black Manta in some trailer, I don't remember when. He may be a premier skin for Aquaman? I finally took the drop and preordered the ultimate edition; I'm surprised at how hyped I am for this. Not sure whether I'll main Darkseid or Black Adam (have to see how the former plays), but I hope regardless of what I pick y'all will be patient with how much of a chump I am at this stuff. Edit: Also who the gently caress wouldn't want Booster Gold, come on. His intro can be him getting punched into the arena by Doomsday.

MinibarMatchman posted:No idea he was in Grayson, interesting. Still, he uses like, tonfa and baseball bats, not boomerangs and drone spheres and glide kicks. Maybe if the guyr who wrote the list omitted this premium skin from the list it'd be a little more believable but this would be like putting Wolverine in the game with Batman's moves. His gimmick is that he's kind of like Cassandra Cain in that he got every possible combat scenario EVER computered into his brain so he can near-flawlessly predict people's reactions and fight moves ahead of time so he's like a super martial artist, which is where all the Batman comparisons come from. I never really read it much but my impression is that he's basically Stormwatch's dumb muscle and they only took him because they really wanted Apollo and they were kind of a package deal.

Completely agree, Arrow is like the most maudlin daytime soap without an iota of self awareness. It's a hard watch even for ironic enjoyment and you shouldn't use it as a metric for the comic.
