This is from Justice League #50, by the way.
>>83160798
wow thats the most stupid shit i have ever seen
Looks to me like there's three Jokers now, anon
>>83161148
>>83160884
sorry, my mistake. this IS the most stupid shit i have ever seen
>>83160719
Cop out. The chair is all-knowing. It should have given him THREE names.
Still, the idea of 3 Jokers intrigues me. It helps to explain many inconsistencies.
It just mean something. Batman has killed at least one Joker. He came back, so he know is useless to kill him again.
>>83162565
>It's now canon that Batman kills the Joker at the end of the Killing Joke
>>83162380
>It helps to explain many inconsistencies.
That's BS.
>>83160798
how much do you want to bet that bruce wanks it to these pictures when he's alone in the batcave
My guess is we now know new52 is set up by dr Manhattan somehow for some test or game he's playing with Adrian
Maybe they decided to make 3 jokers in this universe just to fuck with Bruce to see if the normal human superhero can last
>>83162903
Is it actually Dr. Manhattan or is it Morrison's knock-off?
>>83163365
The last piece of dialouge Ozymandias & Dr. Manhattan exchanged to each appeared in the last pages of Rebirth so probably.
>>83163365
>dr manhattan made the watchmen world where nuclear death is avoided because in the original timeline the world got nuked
Obviously there's 3 jokers
Why is this so hard to believe jokers made many Harley's I wouldn't be surprised if he made more jokers
Bruce has the memory implant device he might have used it on others
>>83162380
This desu, felt pretty underwhelmed the answer to "his name" is "There's three". Sure it makes sense, but it's just a cocktease
>>83160591
This been storytimed anywhere yet? Anyone got a link to the thread?
It's referring to pre-flashpoint Joker, pre-crisis Joker and 52 Joker. It's all about Rebirth and Dr. Manhattan, the chair was trying to tell him that it can't give a straight answer because the timeline is all fucky due to Manhattan.
>three jokers
>two vaginas
>>83160591
One is the Comedian.
>>83164873
>it's just a cocktease
Welcome to the world of superhero comics. Enjoy your stay.
>>83160591
dude... timeline-universe-plotoverse fucked up. dont even bother.
One is first appearance Joker, where he was basically a gangster with green hair and purple suit.
Second is classic Joker, the one from most appearances and the one that killed Jason.
Thirds is grim-dark face off Joker.
All of them except Joker 2 are going to be killed off and none of this will matter.
Batman misheard the chair, it really said "Derese Thrie". Easy mistake considering the chair sounds exactly like The Godfather.
>there are three Jokers now
>and he won't even rape ONE
PLEASE tell me Tom King won't have to devote time to deal with this stupid shit and he can do his own fucking stories.
>Joker got shot in the face and forked his tongue
>His bullet wound healed and his tongue is normal again, but he had his face cut off for some reason
>Except now his face is fixed, but actually he's an ageless being who's been alive for at least a hundred years
>Just kidding about that, but now he's actually dead
>He came back to life, but actually there's three of him.
>>83163365
I think it'll be Manhattan,
>>83163365
It's actually Manhattan.
Earth 4 Captain Atom is dead.
>>83160591
>three jokers
>the world learns of batman and joker's final fight, where both died
>suddenly 3 idiots spring up to take joker's name
Its death of superman all over again
alternatively
>joker who cut-off his face
>some random dude who wore his face and decided to be the next joker
>joker has an offspring that wants to be the next joker
>We're totally revealing the name guys no bullshit this time
>>83162107
I like the Three Jokers revelation a whole hell of a lot more than Cap Hydra. I think it's intriguing.
One of them's obviously The Comedian. The pin hitting batcaves wall is a dead giveaway, yet I see most ignoring this option.

Way to waste godhood, Bruce.
>>83174942
Batman is gay for joker. How is this a waste?
>>83163365
>or is it Morrison's knock-off?
You do realize that Dr. manhattan is literally a knock-off of captain atom because they couldn't get the rights?
>>83174562
>>some random dude who wore his face and decided to be the next joker
>>joker has an offspring that wants to be the next joker
I like that both of those sum up Duella Dent's gimmick
>>83163365
It's Manhattan but he's only a tool being used by something else.Gentry.
>>83175095
Someone refresh me on what happened in the end.
Some team rescued black notThor then he started rescuing the remaining heroes to form a one last stand sort of thing but the bad guys were like "meh" and just fucked off?
>>83175010
they had the rights, Editorial just told Moore 'no, come on, we only JUST bought these rights, you can kill off half of them in their debut story'
>>83165094
this. the time line is blurred so the chair identified 3 different jokers from three different time lines.
shit, theres a bunch of flashes, batman, thomas wayne batman superman and new 52 sups- so it'll be alright
>>83175163
Those Charlton characters appeared in COIE as DC planned.
>>83175136
>Some team rescued black notThor then he started rescuing the remaining heroes to form a one last stand sort of thing but the bad guys were like "meh" and just fucked off?
The Empty Hand reveals the Gentry that everyone fought throughout the series are only just a few soldiers of millions. They still occupy Earth-7 and are working on building what's called an "Oblivion Machine" to destroy multiverses (plural intended).
Basically, the heroes won the metatextual day but the metatextual war is still going. That's why I think Rebirth is loosely tied to it.
>>83175219
>new 52 sups
I've got some bad news
>>83175136
and then a giga justice league was assembled at the orrery of worlds, wit the MO of protecting the multiverse from meta threats
also the last monitor got paid 800$ so he could make rent
>>83175246
yeah about that. wtf is going on with superman. i seen theres a bearded one , with a kid and lois lane and then the new 52 is apparently dead? wtf is all that about? how can 2 supermen exist in the same city and have ANY problems what so ever?
>>83175283
>i seen theres a bearded one , with a kid and lois lane and then the new 52 is apparently dead? wtf is all that about?
It's pre-New-52 Superman. He survived Flashpoint and has been hiding out with pre-New-52 Lois, raising their son.
>>83175390
dc and marvel need to stop fucking with time lines and allowing multiple versions of the same character float around the same book/story. spider verse was the worst offender of that
>>83160697
thanks for the recap Hal
>>83161422
Nicholson was the mobster, so that means Heath and Leto were Red Hood and the stand-up comedian. Which was which?
Looking forward to all the detective shit. The reveal will probably be something stupid, but at least we'll get a few good issues.
>>83176242
Two words: Arkham City. You know.Role of a lifetime!
>>83160591
They're long lost triplets.
>>83160591
He's actual name is really Der R. Tree.
>>83176767
That would at least explain how the world's greatest superhero detective couldn't tell them apart. Anything less would feel rip-off.
>>83174942
Didn't even use it to ask about Bane and why he wears the mask.
Why does Bruce have such shit taste in men? Joker is nowhere near as big a guy as Bane. Is it because Batman has daddy issues?
>>83176811
voodoo.
>>83175602
The Red Hood version had his skin bleached. (So, leto, since he looks kinda pale.)
Which would mean that Heath Joker was the comic. His makeup rubs off.
>>83176045
Heath was the comedian and Leto was Redhood
>>83175136
Pretty much one thing Multiversity was critiquing was the sort of endless rote cycle of comic book events that has some villain do shit and after he or she is defeated, they just tease the next biggervillain, wringing his or her hands in the final panel, going "muahahaha," and it's just a meaningless cycle we keep consuming. Like, the whole "turn the page" thing. Stuck in a loop. The empty hand just advancing through the story, turning the pages, but at the end, it's still empty.
So, at the end of the story, though we see the heroes defeat the Gentry, we see the huge monster guy (the corrupted Ultraa?) being like, "hah, this was just a test, I'm doing even worse evil shit, see you all next time."
Kind of doubt anybody else will really continue the thread, as a lot of the time, Morrison's creations stay Morrison's. Plus, the whole thing Morrison was critiquing (though it was probably not his intention) was Johns' kind of wheelhouse. "Third Army was defeated, but look out, it's the First Lantern!" "You've banished the Crime Syndicate, but in the shadows lurks the Anti-Monitor, who was behind this all along!" I doubt Johns would use the characters Morrison created to critique this to do the exact same thing again in Rebirth.
I think at the end of the day, Multiversity was sort of like, "sure, comics are great, keep reading them; but, don't forget that they aren't life, and go out and play or something, I don't fucking know."I'm am doing poorly at heeding this advice.
>>83176967
I thought Multiversity was about paying your rent
>>83160798
3 Jokers to rape
>>83174516
>Earth 4 Captain Atom is dead.
Nah, pretty sure those events were meant to take place before his appearance in Superman Beyond.
>>83176811
They could just make it so the joker toxin makes them and their blood identical.
I'm kind of disappointed that the Justice League reveal ended up being even more vague than the Rebirth one.
I guess JL was originally meant to be released before Rebirth, so the confirmation of who the three Jokers are (at least visually) would be new information on top of the three Jokers reveal.
>>83178218
>>83162107
This could very easily be mind control shit but I'm sick of "lmao Joker is a force of nature or some shit"
Why can't he just be a guy?
I don't think it's literally 3 Jokers, I think it's going to be some metaphysical bullshit where 3 possibilities, either for one man, or for 3, all resulted in the Joker, but blah blah chaos blah blah and they congealed into a single entity.
>>83178886
This is what I'm hoping for pham
>>83178226
Okay, so how the hell the world greatest detective never noticed this. There's no way that was the first time when Joker popped up two place at the same time.
it are clones?
>>83180684
He probably dismissed the extra ones as random copycats. It could still be just a copycat even in that Rebirth panel. He's just entertaining the idea that it isn't due to the 3 Jokers reveal.
So, if there are three of them, which one dicking Harley?
>>83164873
Maybe "There's three" is just his real name
>>83180684
What's to say it's three physical Jokers?
A new one gets created every time there's a crisis. The Joker is unique to each iteration of the universe, with a backstory to match.
>>83176846
Dude everyone knows CIA and Bane are a couple. Batman just doesn't want to ruin their perfect love.
They are obviously
Martha Wayne
Old Dick Grayson
And good ol' Mistah Jay
>>83180849
That very page.>>83178226
I dont know why but I am not mad at all
>>83180908
This.
There will be some "He's just too crazy to conform to the new reality" shit.
>>83180777
none. they all have an intense homolust for batman.
>>83180908
Everytime Batsy threw a Red Hood into a chemical tank a new was is born. He should just stay away from that fucking factory.
>>83180777
2nd one. Although these days she probably could get along better with the Golden Age one, depending on how they portray him.
>>83170295
>there's an entire /tv/ board
>and you cant even force memes there
>>83161422
Out of three Joker's, only one is laughing. Something is wrong.
