A 25 year old dude dating a 15-18 year old girl would be looked at as strange so we can look at it just as strange when it's a woman. We've allowed social ideology to sort of dictate certain aspects of our thinking which actually isn't healthy for society as a whole hence why females get lighter jail sentencing when they are perverts vs men, sentencing for the same crimes in general and many times get slaps on the wrist more often than men. People giggle at the fact that a 28 year old teacher was sleeping with 14 year olds in a News story but they're horrified when it's a 28+ year old dude doing the same, can we say they both deserve capital punishment and call it a day?
ultimately rewatching this, I think I really appreciate this version of Batman was willing to talk it over and and try to come to an understanding...even with something he hates like guns...most versions of Batman would probably just hit him with my way or the highway...then gets shocked when they DO pick Highway...
He has started talking to himself? I can't say I'm surprised. "It is a habit of the old, to always address the most experienced person in the room." - Gandalf, age a couple thousand
Fun Fact: Batman '66 comics actually explain the whole speedo thing. Robin has Bat-Thermal Underwear (I couldn't make this up if I tried) that's basically those things figure skaters wear to keep their legs warm I think. There's also another one of these comics where Robin complains to Batman why Batgirl has a whole ass motorcycle while he has to share the Batmobile, which could've been hilarious if it were voiced by lord jj.
It actually makes sense even without the speedo retcon. He's wearing a leotard, his parents were acrobats and that's a way of connecting with them even though they are dead. The first Robin to not have acrobat parents Tim Drake (Jason Todd's father before Crisis was an acrobat IIRC) ditched the leotard for pants.
@@pennywise8994 like the time batman broke into superman's fortress of solitude just to screw with him, because he wanted to give supes a "mystery for his birthday gift."
Man, considering how dysfunctional superheroes usually are in Solid jj videos, Batman and Robin are both being surprisingly mature and good at communicating with each other. Good work on stopping that madman with a book too. Nice showing all around, keep it up Dynamic Duo!
If you want subtextual clues on how to live a moral life and interact with others, you want to watch Solid jj. He’s like 100x better than getting advice from Gaseous Abrams.
Batgirl was actually a completely independent superhero for most of her career, basically butting into Batman and Robin's adventures as a mysterious ally. The Dynamic Duo never let her into the Batcave in the beginning, and they didn't even know she was Barbara Gordon for decades. Barbara even moved out of Gotham into Washington to become a US Congresswoman (this is not a joke) many years before she became an official member of the Bat-Family. Robin had nothing to worry about with her. Everything else though uh.... well, Dick Grayson *did* end up using guns along the line.
@@Bertiboy from what I recall, his time as agent Grayson still had him use escrima sticks and other stuff from his time as Nightwing rather than guns, I could be wrong tho as I only had one issue
He’s brandished guns during his Spyral arc, but I don’t think he used them very much/at all? And he carries one as a cop, but once again, he doesn’t use it unless all other options are exhausted, which is rare.

Love how they made the Joker into that awkward third wheel as they watch a couple argue,what's the icing on the cake. Is that he wants to leave so they can settle their differences but they won't let him leave 😂
I laughed throughout the entire episode. When it ended, I closed TH-cam and just sat there for a second. Then it dawned on me: Why is Robin in the Teen Titans if he’s 25?
Hey solid jj, just wanted to say a huge thank you for this video - I decided to order that book by Leil Lowndes you mentioned just for a meme and it has unironically been one of the greatest books I’ve ever read Keep up the fantastic content! ❤️
I really like this. They need to let Solid JJ just have his own universe in the DCU. I love how everybody communicates a lot better and seems to get along.
Hey Solid JJ: I have an idea for a video. So, the Joker, Riddler, 2 Face, Penguin, Mr. Freeze, Bane, & Poison Ivy (not voiced by anyone) team up to commit a crime & actually succeed because Batman doesn't show up. At 1st the villains all are happy that they actually got away with their crimes for once, but then they feel that it wasn't as fun without Batman trying to stop them. As the video goes on the villains all begin to mock each other over their gimmicks & realize that they enjoy working by themselves rather then as a group. By then end, they turn on each other fighting over who is the true arch nemesis of Batman. Then the joke at the end is that Batman & Robin are watching the villains fighting each other from a distance just enjoying the show.
for some reason I imagine it would end with some: "hey Batman wait, why are we waiting out here? I don't know Robin, solidjj wanted to make this video to which we can't refuse to do anything"
Joker: "I mean just look at riddler, He wasn't even good at this villain stuff until that one mo-" Riddler: "Oh as if being taken serious for being a mass murderer and a terrorist is some thing to be proud of!"
Didn't Batman go through multiple Robins? It seems to me that the bright colors is meant to further enhance Batman's stealth by drawing fire... away from himself and towards a small child.
To be fair, just because Robin wants a gun doesn't mean it needs to shoot bullets. He's Batman, he could probably come up with some sort of gadget that works as a fair compromise without going against his beliefs.
Solidjj doesn't miss!! These videos are an absolute blast. Even though they take a while to brainstorm, and find old cartoon screen-caps, and voice over, and whatever else goes into these, I am more than happy to wait longer for the next video if they come out this hilarious.
Dude was from Dick to Jaybird in 2 seconds with the "I want a gun!" line. I love how Robin implied that Bruce and Barbara are/were lovers in this universe too (like in the Timm universe).

yep, this is a Jason who was never killed or dunked in a Lazarus Pit that cured his malnutrition and allowed him to grow to his full potential.
but it cant be him since that robin is a member in the teen titans so that has to be Tim Drake
I thought it was Jason as well
@@thatrandomguy362 more of a joke really. Jason later on was more assertive with Batman. Often times clashing head on in ideals with Batman. All before the Lazarus of course.
0:48 Robin says while Batman is wearing blue
I think back in the day most comic book characters had to be brightly colored because it was easier to print, or something like that. It doesn’t make much sense but there is a reason why most superheroes are brightly colored
The age change joke of Robin is actually referencing the fact that DC couldn't actually work out what the age gap should be between Robin and Batgirl. Brilliant.
I always assume Robin's slightly older but both are either teenagers or young adults, mostly because Robin is usually first and BG comes in later
would have been interesting to make barbara slightly older than him
@@nebiyuesayas5600In 60s Batman she was right between Robin and Batman. They wanted to make love triangle, but then they realise that relationship between mid 20s woman and schoolboy are ''a bit'' weird
@@nikeneon3188 just a little bit? lol what were they thinking
@@nikeneon3188 A bit? let's stop making things sound different when it's a woman doing it folks. A 25 year old dude dating a 15-18 year old girl would be looked at as strange so we can look at it just as strange when it's a woman. We've allowed social ideology to sort of dictate certain aspects of our thinking which actually isn't healthy for society as a whole hence why females get lighter jail sentencing when they are perverts vs men, sentencing for the same crimes in general and many times get slaps on the wrist more often than men. People giggle at the fact that a 28 year old teacher was sleeping with 14 year olds in a News story but they're horrified when it's a 28+ year old dude doing the same, can we say they both deserve capital punishment and call it a day?
Her own suit "right off the bat".
That was good.
Damn, can't believe batgirl skinned a bat and stretched it to make a whole-ass suit.
ultimately rewatching this, I think I really appreciate this version of Batman was willing to talk it over and and try to come to an understanding...even with something he hates like guns...most versions of Batman would probably just hit him with my way or the highway...then gets shocked when they DO pick Highway...
"Now I just look like a pervert"
I died ☠️
A pervert who getting all the Girls.
RIP bro😔
Lol rip
And yet that's still better than what it looks like if Robin was 14
Batman's character is developing. He's finally learning to communicate peacefully with those he cares about.
He has started talking to himself? I can't say I'm surprised.
"It is a habit of the old, to always address the most experienced person in the room." - Gandalf, age a couple thousand
I guess the reverse Batman gave him some perspective on himself.
Ya, finding out your interpersonal issues spawn the worst creatures in the Dark Multiverse changes a man.
It's Skywalket Time.
"Wow, don't fuck with Robin. That guy's got a gun." 🤣
Fun Fact: Batman '66 comics actually explain the whole speedo thing. Robin has Bat-Thermal Underwear (I couldn't make this up if I tried) that's basically those things figure skaters wear to keep their legs warm I think. There's also another one of these comics where Robin complains to Batman why Batgirl has a whole ass motorcycle while he has to share the Batmobile, which could've been hilarious if it were voiced by lord jj.
It actually makes sense even without the speedo retcon. He's wearing a leotard, his parents were acrobats and that's a way of connecting with them even though they are dead. The first Robin to not have acrobat parents Tim Drake (Jason Todd's father before Crisis was an acrobat IIRC) ditched the leotard for pants.
Ba-
Bat thermal underwear-
Wtf 🗿
I swear silver age comics had some of the weirdest shit.
@@pennywise8994 like the time batman broke into superman's fortress of solitude just to screw with him, because he wanted to give supes a "mystery for his birthday gift."
As someone who has worn thermal underwear for skiing, that shit is not going to keep your balls warn sub 50 degrees.
Man, considering how dysfunctional superheroes usually are in Solid jj videos, Batman and Robin are both being surprisingly mature and good at communicating with each other. Good work on stopping that madman with a book too. Nice showing all around, keep it up Dynamic Duo!
If you want subtextual clues on how to live a moral life and interact with others, you want to watch Solid jj. He’s like 100x better than getting advice from Gaseous Abrams.
And after all that, Robin still threw the first punch. Some things never change.
Batgirl was actually a completely independent superhero for most of her career, basically butting into Batman and Robin's adventures as a mysterious ally. The Dynamic Duo never let her into the Batcave in the beginning, and they didn't even know she was Barbara Gordon for decades. Barbara even moved out of Gotham into Washington to become a US Congresswoman (this is not a joke) many years before she became an official member of the Bat-Family.
Robin had nothing to worry about with her. Everything else though uh.... well, Dick Grayson *did* end up using guns along the line.
Wait when did Dick start using guns? I know Jason used guns plenty, but Dick?
@@Betrix5060 I know he became an agent for a brief time. Maybe that was when he used guns for a little bit
@@Bertiboy from what I recall, his time as agent Grayson still had him use escrima sticks and other stuff from his time as Nightwing rather than guns, I could be wrong tho as I only had one issue
He’s brandished guns during his Spyral arc, but I don’t think he used them very much/at all? And he carries one as a cop, but once again, he doesn’t use it unless all other options are exhausted, which is rare.
You just know when Batman is guessing Robin's age he's looking to Joker for hints. Great video as always.
Let's be real he probably doesn't even know which Robin he's talking to.
@@aduro9519 That's why he calls him Robin or chum isn't it? "To the batpole Di..jas..tim." "What did you call me Bruce?" "....chum?"
@@AgentofLADON Tragic part is, its Damian. Still said he's "like a son to him".
Damien isnt old enough nor does he want a gun. This is probanly Jason Todd
@@asianjackass237 Always found it odd of Damien to claim not to like guns when he carries a Katana and on his first night out he attacked Alfred, cut a mans head off, stuffed it with grenades and tried to kill Tim with it. Little bastard should have been dissolved in a big drum of acid for the first thing alone.
I'm in love with your videos. The radio/old voice effect, the highly creative plots involving some funny/bizarre aspect of the shows.
Good on Batman and Robin for recognizing how much more dangerous books are than guns!
Within these pages, there is more than ink. There are ideas.
And ideas are bulletproof.
@@arcanaxiii6665 (shoots your brain)
(Ideas disappear)
@@arcanaxiii6665 Just like the german dude. He knew that books needed to be burned
@@ThomasTheThermonuclearBomb but he wrote his own book in Order to ascend to power
@James Furey lmao what
Robin being like 25 but treated as a teenager is literally how it was in pre-crisis lmao.
Shut up! He's got a book!
Love how they made the Joker into that awkward third wheel as they watch a couple argue,what's the icing on the cake.
Is that he wants to leave so they can settle their differences but they won't let him leave 😂
Jason and Bruce absolutely had this conversation at one point.
As soon as he brought up the gun I was like "That's def Jason."
I thought It was Richard
@@Bilfred-hp4tj I think it is. But the subject and his personality match Jason's a lot closer than Dick's
@@TripleA90000oh I understand
"Well how else are you gonna learn, Robin?"
"learn what, how to walk with a limp?"
LMAO that cracked me up
Batman tends to wear the weirdest outfits when Robin has a limp, if I remember a storyline about rainbow batman correctly
2:20 oh no, the joker is helping! Clobber him! 😂
I laughed throughout the entire episode. When it ended, I closed TH-cam and just sat there for a second. Then it dawned on me:
Why is Robin in the Teen Titans if he’s 25?
Because.......
@@playstation.e7703 these mysteries know no bounds
I mean that’s canon. They just dropped the “Teen” part at one point so now they’re just the “Titans” but Nightwing’s there
@@runeanonymous9760 well that’s boring
Thats a constant problem with any name like girl, boy, teen, and etc.
1:50 Oh it’s Jason
That makes sense
Joker: therapist
Robin: victom
Batman:abuser
"Don't fuck with Robin, that guy's got a gun."
That's just Red Hood.
Honestly it's nice to know batman was actually willing to hear him out even with the situation
“I want a gun”
Yeah that’s definitely Jason.
Hey solid jj, just wanted to say a huge thank you for this video - I decided to order that book by Leil Lowndes you mentioned just for a meme and it has unironically been one of the greatest books I’ve ever read
Keep up the fantastic content! ❤️
How much would you recommend that book, out of curiosity?
"he's got a book!"
This was honestly a very respectful conversation, and you can understand both sides and where they’re coming from. What a healthy relationship!
And the jokers just sitting there like "huh batman and Robin actually have a pretty good relationship"
the voice actress for batgirl was spot on
I love the part when she said:
@@magentapurpleyap5566 “Brevity is the soul of wit.” She didn’t actually say that, but she implied the shit out of it.
Batman: your not getting a gun. That goes against everything I stand for.
Jason Todd: fine ill do it myself.
"never interrupt your enemy while he is making a mistake" -The Joker
I love that Joker listens to them and gives his own input instead of using their discussion as a distraction to make an escape.
I love how jocker gose from the agent death and chaos to family therapist here truly is unpredictable
In Batman and Robin’s defense, if I saw the Joker holding anything I would automatically assume it was a weapon.
1:41 Joker: I can help with that!
Brooo 💀
Spine
What a killer joke
Robin:you wear black
Batman:literally wearing the grey and blue suit
This video honestly is a pretty good example of how important good communication is in the workplace. Good on Batman for hearing Robin out.
And in a family. That is his son after all.
@@vicenzostella1390a lot of writers seem to forget that
I really like this. They need to let Solid JJ just have his own universe in the DCU. I love how everybody communicates a lot better and seems to get along.
The thumbnail was enough to make me laugh. But this entire video is more than enough to make me die from laughter.
Learn how to walk with a limp was a perfect comeback
Hey Solid JJ: I have an idea for a video. So, the Joker, Riddler, 2 Face, Penguin, Mr. Freeze, Bane, & Poison Ivy (not voiced by anyone) team up to commit a crime & actually succeed because Batman doesn't show up. At 1st the villains all are happy that they actually got away with their crimes for once, but then they feel that it wasn't as fun without Batman trying to stop them. As the video goes on the villains all begin to mock each other over their gimmicks & realize that they enjoy working by themselves rather then as a group. By then end, they turn on each other fighting over who is the true arch nemesis of Batman. Then the joke at the end is that Batman & Robin are watching the villains fighting each other from a distance just enjoying the show.
That sounds awesome
Hell yea
for some reason I imagine it would end with some:
"hey Batman wait, why are we waiting out here?
I don't know Robin, solidjj wanted to make this video to which we can't refuse to do anything"
Lol great idea
Joker: "I mean just look at riddler, He wasn't even good at this villain stuff until that one mo-"
Riddler: "Oh as if being taken serious for being a mass murderer and a terrorist is some thing to be proud of!"
Didn't Batman go through multiple Robins? It seems to me that the bright colors is meant to further enhance Batman's stealth by drawing fire... away from himself and towards a small child.
and he uses small children because he knows the enemy will likely hesitate
I actually 100% see Joker ending up with a heart to heart talk like that at the end. It's just so unexpected, and so... Jokery.
Dick is canonically around 27-30, and part of me is convinced he’d still be wearing the speedo of Bruce never fired him
He was fired? I thought he quit.
That’s what I thought.
@@ladybug1681depends on the continuity, that might’ve been a few recons ago
Pre-Crisis, Dick quit and became Nightwing.
Post-Crisis, Dick was shot by the Joker, so Batman fired him. Then he became Nightwing.
Batman: if you kill a killer, the number of kilkers doesn't go down.
Robin probably: so kill two killers.
2:33
Fahrenheit 451 in a nutshell
Oh my god. I just read this in class XD
I lost it at
"The boyish charm is starting to wear off, now I just look like a pervert"
1:32 : I love how Batman disrespects Robin so much that he T-poses behind his back when girls are around :v
1:01 I ALMOST DIED FROM CHOKING ON FOOD AT THIS PART
To be fair, just because Robin wants a gun doesn't mean it needs to shoot bullets. He's Batman, he could probably come up with some sort of gadget that works as a fair compromise without going against his beliefs.
Solidjj doesn't miss!! These videos are an absolute blast. Even though they take a while to brainstorm, and find old cartoon screen-caps, and voice over, and whatever else goes into these, I am more than happy to wait longer for the next video if they come out this hilarious.
I really love that Jason Todd reference with Robin risking to walk with a limp for the rest of his life.
Doesn't seem like many have noticed it.
no matter what the punchline of “he’s got [harmless item]” always hits
The fact that the joker was just watching them the entire time🤣🤣
This feels like an abridged parody of Red Hoods origin and I’m here for it.
Robin: I want a gun
Batman: No
Robin: *puts on redhood mask*
"It'sa book! He's going to reeeeead!" -The Soldier from Team Fortress 2
"I want a gun."
Red Hood foreshadowing
“Don’t f with robin, that guy got a gun” is what made me laugh my ass off
Dude was from Dick to Jaybird in 2 seconds with the "I want a gun!" line. I love how Robin implied that Bruce and Barbara are/were lovers in this universe too (like in the Timm universe).
Bat man pretty much does not deny anything and is willing to communicate to fix the situation or at least compromise even about the gun... he really is a hero
Not the one we wanted , but the one we all need
Or something like that
Batman: “Robin you are never in that much danger”
Jason: “Am I a joke to you?”
You're the only channel I'll immediately like without even seeing it lol
Same lol.
Joker calmly and politely waiting for the two to finish squabbling is the best part for me.
