Can someone please explain to me Batman and Joker's relationship?
I've only played Arkham Asylum and Arkham City.Yes, i know i should read some comics, but i still have to get my hands on them
I just can't make sense of how they were able to make Batman and Joker identify with themselves, I mean they're both different in so many ways how can they even 'understand' each other?
Yes, they're in love.
>>78920877
>Can someone please explain to me Batman and Joker's relationship?
In the comics they're in love but divorced.
They recognize in each other the exact opposite of themselves. Order and Chaos, Yin and Yang. They coexist as forces of nature, rather than men, they are immortal ideas.
Who are co's favorite characters who enjoy the best of both worlds? Rik? Psylocke? Constantine? Wonder Woman? Hercules? Every woman written by Claremont?
Harley and Ivy!
Maggie is pretty prominent comics bisexual, I mean I'm pretty sure Fantagraphics has used her and Hopey as mascots from time to time.
>>78920820
Hopey is my forever dykefu
How the fuck does someone burn a shake? That was a real oversite on the writer's part.

That's supposed to be the joke, failing so hard even a non-flammable liquid gets burnt.

The guy who can see everything in the future? He's an Inhuman named Homer. I shit you not. No code name, no Inhuman moniker, just Homer.
Homer helps the heroes beat some big bad and Captain Marvel takes the opportunity to start using Homer to solve future crimes.
OFF PANEL, both War Machine and She Hulk die fighting Thanos as Carol learned he was landing on Earth to try to get the Cosmic Cube again thanks to Homer.
Tony swears revenge on Carol for getting Rhodey killed, while Jennifer lies dying on a table, her last words urging Danvers to keep using Homer to look into the future, even though she's, you know, dying.

This comic series is adorable and I love it.

Aaron Douglas has joined the cast of The CW's THE FLASH as The Turtle, "a meta-human who can slow down time itself". According to executive producer Andrew Kreisberg, Cisco and Caitlin have been searching for the Turtle umbeknowst to Barry since the particle accelerator explosion. The character will be featured in the midseason premiere, "Potential Energy", which airs on January 19.

Here's the full synopsis and the stills for the episode.
>JOE AND IRIS GET TO KNOW WALLY — Now that they’ve grown closer, Barry (Grant Gustin) considers telling Patty (guest star Shantel VanSanten) that he is The Flash. Meanwhile, Joe (Jesse L. Martin) and Iris (Candice Patton) try to get to know Wally (Keiynan Lonsdale), and the team hunts down a meta-human known as "The Turtle" (Aaron Douglas), who can slow time itself.

>slow down time
But the turtle's whole thing is that he's a slow thinking mastermind.

>>78917800
The comic displaying abilities that the show zords never used or what?
>>78917812
Just the fact that the Power Rangers comic will be better than the show could ever be.
>>78917800
Looks significantly less ridiculous as a comic.
FUCK YOU AND DIE MARVEL!
They tuned a obscured but well liked character into a prostitute just so they can flat out say sexualized dark toned female characters from the 90s are gone and never coming back and that they were the equivalent of prostitutes and those that still like them are basically men that use prostitutes.
BURN IT THE FUCK DOWN!
THEY HAVE CROSSED THE FUCKING LINE!
>>78917647
Fuck off S/D.
What the fuck does this even mean?
That was your limit? No wonder they get away with the weirdest shit.
How many normies will this fool?
>>78917504
Not much since normies are all over Deadpool, also the Marvel logo is right there.
A few funny stories, few enough to collect all their internet complaints into one funny pic which can be circulated around the internet for people to laugh at.
>>78917524
They might be fooled into thinking it's a romantic comedy Marvel style like Guardians of the Galaxy had tongue firmly in cheek as a space opera.
>>78917142
too bad all of the shows are terrible ideas.
MIND QUAD
Would X-Men movies really be better in Marvel's hands?
They would be action comedies with poorly-developed villains. Whether that's better than what Fox is doing with the property is a matter of opinion
>>78916046
I guess we will never know.
At least quicksilver would still be alive that's for sure.
And avengers 2 could have been a vs X-men one and not with memetron.
I don't think so. They would just get watered down with the forced Avengers shit and turned into camp.
I always prefer X-Men to be separated from the rest of the Marvel U
>Jeff deals with the complex issues of seismic in the tech and video game industry
Take THAT misogynerds!
Truly another current and relevant blast at current social wrongs. It's not like women make up a huge proportion of financially successful twitch streamers.
>Alice Grove still wasting a Henshin moment.
Alice Grove is the superior comic for seeing Geiff's crushed dreams, because it's what he actually wants to do but can't.
