One Of Spidey's First (and Still One Of His Finest) Chilling Moments Of Superhuman Intimidation. This

At least he was nice enough to let Mai keep her heels

He really went ahead and arranged them height wise

The Riddler one actually happened! Eddie was in a race w/Batman to solve this case, would only get paid if he solved it first. Then he did, and gloated all the way to the bank...and the name on the check was Bruce Wayne. We just cut to a grinning Batman, he gives a speech about 'keeping a mouser well-fed' it was great.

I know the popular take is Batman's rogues getting their butts handed to them by Bruce Wayne, and I'm not belittling that, because that's really funny for all stated reasons?

But how about a new take: most of Batman's rogues call him off limits, because they find out he is their benefactor, when/if they try to reform?

Mr Freeze won't touch him because when he's in Arkham, Bruce is the one who finances the research to help Nora Fries.

Poison Ivy won't touch him because he had been the one supplying her with plants, while in prison.

Harley won't touch him because he's just a great guy an' gotham needs guys like that.

Riddler won't touch him because he was the secret backer that time Eddie tried to open a detective agency.

Croc won't touch him because he's one of the few people who ever talks to him like a person.

Deadshot refuses any hits on him because he found out Wayne does a lot of secret work for people down on their luck who made bad mistakes.

Paypal gliched out on me and cost me a minute...and it sold out in 4! T-T noooo

Well, I still have the lovely online version

Watson's Sketchbook is on sale here! Quantities are limited and it will probably sell out pretty quickly fyi!

And you think (W)right!

I just think Franziska and Gumshoe have Yzma and Kronk vibes

My review of this book when I read it was that the only redeeming quality was the clearly unintentional ho-yay XD

Kirk and Spock exchanging rings was not what I excepted to get out of this book but oh my god

Below is probably my favorite exchange; Kirk being pissed he didn't give his ring to the real Spock.

(From the passage above) "...he's wearing my ring, which I would have given to no other man in the universe." Are you fucking kidding me

And finally Spock wishing he could've retrieved Kirk's ring for him.

Also, in case you didn't pick it up from the first passage, Kirk is wearing Spocks ring, and as far as we know he's still fucking wearing it through this last page.

This is hilarious, but imagine it actually does go to trial, they start the proceedings, get as far as "for the murder of the man known as the Joker-" and are immediately cut off by the judge breaking his hammer declaring Bruce not guilty on grounds of self defense. Like "do you even HEAR yourself, Prosecution? The JOKER? I agree Mr. Wayne (protesting his guilt and the failure of the legal system to prosecute him properly) this is an outrage, I hereby award you a medal and free therapy for life, DISMISSED!"

I have been thinking lately about a universe where Bruce Wayne killed the Joker.

I want to be clear here, since there are so many longstanding debates on this topic: I do not think Bruce Wayne should kill the Joker. I have just been wondering what would happen if the circumstances aligned in such a way that he did.

And to be clear on a related, yet slightly different topic: when I say I have been wondering about what if Bruce Wayne killed the Joker, I do not mean as the Batman. I mean Bruce "Brucie" Wayne.

Maybe it's kind of an accident? Like, he definitely did intend to hit the Joker, but he's Brucie right now, so he's trying not to look like he knows what he's doing while still doing enough damage to keep the Joker from killing someone, and meanwhile the Joker makes just the wrong move and -

And here we are. Brucie just killed the Joker.

Bruce's reaction here is one thing; he has his one rule for a reason, he's just broken it, he's determined to turn himself in -

His family's reaction is a whole different story. How does Cass feel about this?

How does Jason? Bruce has killed the Joker, just like he wanted, but it wasn't for him, not really, and -

And meanwhile, this happens in front of, say, a gala full of people, so now all of Gotham gets to react to it too.

Average Gothamite, seeing the words BRUCE WAYNE, JOKER, and KILLED in the same headline: OH, NO.

Average Gothamite, once they've processed the order those words are actually in: . . . I did not have that on this year's bingo card.

The city's most famous mass murderer has just been publicly killed by the city's biggest employer/philanthropist/source of tabloid harmless nonsense! Three days before Brucie was making tabloid headlines by tripping into a fountain and somehow losing his shirt in the process! Two weeks before, the newspaper was running a retrospective on the Wayne murders and what donation Brucie was making to help the families of victims this year! The article mentioned how one of his adopted sons had also tragically become a murder victim!

Now this has happened, and Bruce is having a breakdown over breaking his one rule, and the rest of Gotham just assumes that this is because poor Brucie thinks this somehow makes him like the man who killed his parents. They send a huge outpouring of support his way. This in no way helps Bruce's actual breakdown.

Ninety percent of Gotham is sure Brucie didn't actually mean to kill the Joker, and pretty much a hundred percent of them support him whether he meant to do it or not. No one wants to have anything to do with prosecuting this mess. Bruce is trying to make it as clear as possible that he will fully cooperate with the justice system and meanwhile an entire gala full of people is suddenly acting like they could in no way have possibly witnessed events that took place ten feet in front of their faces. Did Bruce kill the Joker? Is the officer sure? That doesn't seem like him. Maybe the Joker just tripped on his own. Marble floors, you know. Very slippery.

@oh-tobeafrog thank you for inspiring me with this galaxy brain take on my two favorite marvel heroes :)

Love this song so much, best in the whole franchise

Hide a tazer in his hair; there's enough of it that no one could possibly discover it

with the concerning amount of times Mokuba is getting kidnapped by various people, he should really go for some self defense classes

The biggest problems of the series occur because an enormous flying murder beast demonstrably CAN

Laurence I understand it was all happening very fast but you can’t just kidnap someone like that
