Emotionally Angry Kid who's clearly capable of handling themself in a fight and Bruce isn't trying to recruit him? Bruce's Mind: Fight it, Bruce! Fight it! You don't need another angry kill happy Jason or Damien. Also Bruce's Mind: But he's snarky like Dick... Bruce's Mind: Quiet, you!
It's not like Batman held auditions for kid sidekicks or anything, every Robin came into Batman's world because of a particular case. After Dick Grayson's parents were killed, Batman felt bad for the kid and decided to adopt him/make him his ward in order to spare him the same difficulties Bruce himself grew up with as a kid due to his own parents' murder. However. Dick's pain over his loss was too much, and he ended up repeatedly sneaking out of Wayne Manor in an attempt to catch his parents murderer. In the end, Dick's trauma was too much and was heading towards a destructive lifestyle anyway. Instead, as far as Batman was concerned, if Dick was going to face the dangers of the world, he might as well face them with training. But that wasn't enough for Dick. He saw Batman as some sort of inspiration and he insisted on being Batman's sidekick. In most iterations, Batman was against the idea of Dick becoming a crime fighter, but he had no choice in the matter for Dick's sake, and thus we have Robin. In a what-if story where Bruce never became Batman, Dick ended up killing Tony Zucco and was on his way to being executed. So, Batman gave Dick's life purpose and the proper training to survive in the world of Gotham. Same is the case with Jason Todd and other Robins. They weren't replacements as so many people wrongly assume.
@@kevind3974 Why would Damian wish he was an orphan?? Batman literally fought against Darkseid to protect Damian. I think Damian is proud to have Batman as his dad. Do you think a foster parent would do that??
Red Hood and Clownhunter would be amazing. Redhood can provide training and equipment to the kid. Obviously Batman will come after this partnership if they kill more clowns and it will be a battle of ideologies - Batman's vs Red Hood's. Both of them will try to sway the kid to one or the other.
@@Lord0x I think this will be explored in the future. Joker likes the idea of Clownhunter. Someone who has lost faith in Batman. Someone that has taken justice into their own hands and not afraid to kill when necessary. Someone who believes that Batman is to blame for not taking a more drastic approach to crime and he's not one of Batman's Robins. He's a Gothamite from the Narrows, one of Gotham's impoverished districts. You can say he epitomises the real soul of Gotham. He also embodies Joker's message to Gotham. The message that Batman couldn't stop Joker from hurting the people of Gotham because of his no-kill policy. We saw at the end of Joker war that Punchline became a prophet for Joker and his message and for me, Clownhunter is the unwitting disciple.
Ngl it wouldn’t matter because the death sentence takes years before they are actually sentenced to death and the joker just escapes every other week. But I do think it’s weird that no one in prison has tried to murder the joker or kill him as revenge for yknow killing thousands
Imagine seeing Clownhunter kill the Joker or try to kill him and Batman stops him. Then the citizens of Gotham charge up and try to free Clownhunter and attacking Batman, saying he failed the city repeatedly and Clownhunter is the one they deserve/need (or something like that).
FOR REAL! I'm not Vietnamese but this specific representation makes me so happy as an Asian. Like finally! An Asian character that doesn't lean into some insulting Asian stereotypical tropes like Katana, Suicide Squad. I love how he is written like just another character living in Gotham. It's like the writer wrote the story he/she really wanted to write first without any race in mind and decided to make him Vietnamese after writing it, because why not?
I love how Clownhunter, Harley, and Jason are all the same side. It really makes us as the audience see that Jason wasn't just talking out of his ass, and that he's not the only one that feels like Batman is wrong for not only letting the Joker live, but also for saving him numerous times
That’s what I’m saying even Jim Gordon should be on their side too after everything Jokers put him and his family through like Batman can have his no kill rule but let them be the ones to kill Joker just a brutal death like Batman sometimes pisses me off with his no kill rule of the Joker like until he gets killed or paralyzed by him and comes back with a replacement Batman that kills BUT his has trust and empathy from everyone and everyone acts like Bruce never existed and when he come back it’s “Hi Bruce,You hear that guys the old boss is back” *eye rolls* then Batman can have a say about the joker and stop being a dickhead about killing Just him.
@@Lingeringwill13 lmao You're right. Gordon and Barbara should both be on the other three's side. Barbara the only one playing like she doesn't want that clown dead. I believe the Joker even killed Gordon's wife. It was crazy and slightly funny is a crazy way. I hope they'll just team up and assassinate the Joker behind Batman's back like Batwoman did Clayface or something
@@trell9817 IKR Gordon should’ve killed him YEARS ago. Why can’t Jason or Dick call in a favor from Superman The Joker Hit Squad: Hey uhh can you kill joker as a favor he’s really gotta go but Bruce is being high and mighty and saying if we kill we’ll be criminals even though you do and you’re the paragon of hope Superman: You got it! you guys could’ve asked me to just pick him up into orbit YEARS ago if you asked he’s been a thorn in humanities side for too long
@@Lingeringwill13 I just dont understand how NOT A SINGLE cop said oops and "mistakenly" shot Joker in the head. Considering how in our world, if a cop kills an unarmed INNOCENT person all they get is 1 week paid administrative leave, I seriously doubt this cop would get into trouble for "mistakenly" killing a mass murdering psychopath.
Maybe they should just kill him themselves? Like it save them a lot of trouble to just off the clown instead of trying to force another man to do so in a vain attempt to prove your own moral superiority over his.
Wow, now I can see how the same writer came up with Punchline AND Clown Hunter because they both were 'inspired' by the actions of the Joker. Overtime, they both ended up doubting their belief in the person who inspired them. Punchline believed in the Joker's "cause" and wanted to assist him with correcting/fixing the broken world around them by exposing the wounds instead of trying to bandage up what most consider to be a problem; let chaos reign! In the epilogue, it seems Punchline has realized the Joker isn't who she thought he was and opted for public pity as she awaits her trial. Well, Harley tried to warn her... Clown Hunter USED to believe in and felt inspired by The Bat, but when he realized the 'hero' of Gotham couldn't be everywhere at once and do what needed to be done to heal the sick wounds of the city once and for all; he took it upon himself to rise up and erase the 'clown infection' that had been terrorizing the city. Now, I'm not saying killing left and right is the correct way to solve things. However, look how much chaos and death could've been avoided if Batman or anyone KILLED the Joker once and for all. Clown Hunter bringing up the story about his parent's death and then their corpses being incinerated via battle with Batman...wow...deep stuff. Thoughts?
A lot of things would've been avoided if the Joker was killed. A lot of lives would've been saved. Batmans no killed code is flawed as hell since people like Joker will never change. Then again Gotham is a hellhole, and no sane person would live there. you would've even pay me 5 million dollars to live there for a year.
I don't know if anyone has made this comment yet, but if comics were more like real life and someone was killing like the Joker and getting away with it, there would have been hundreds of clown hunters by now. I think normal citizens with guns would have been taking shots at him. Joker goes way beyond just a serial killer in my opinion, plus he keeps escaping!
Clowhunter's awesome. I like how he's battling clowns who hid their masks. It can even be a series where he's hunting down these clowns while keeping batman off his trail. We can see clowns living normal lives and they have different reasons of wearing the clown mask. The series can explore the fragility of the human psyche.
4 mins and 20 seconds before he even starts talking on subject. That a vid in itself or could/should have been. Has to get it close to 10 mins somehow i guess but P.R stuff starting a Batman vid. Bad choice Variant.
And this is one of the reasons why I like anti-heroes more than heroes. They get things done. Batman, with his moral code, has caused more damage to the city than he saved. Clownhunter got good points!
@@loulavillena9896 yep cuz every criminal deserves a batarang to the skull...I’d love to hear you opinions on the prison system. Lmao that’s demented. I don’t think the joker should be alive but I also don’t think every criminal needs to be eradicated. That’s bonkers
I'm Vietnamese myself. In my area, there's a handful of Vietnamese that based their looks on African American culture. I feel like whoever created the character took inspiration from that.
I live overseas and was disappointed about the offer for a heartbeat before I remembered how awesome you guys are at looking after your fans and I cheered for those of you who are going to get this comic! Keep up the great work!
@@humanity600 Good. And I don’t mean the character, just the person. Can have another person become them. Still have your Batmans, just someone else be them.
Batman already has some of the best characters and lore in DC history and it just keeps expanding. It's amazing to see how much effort the writers and artists take to expand the Batman lore. I'm excited to see Ghostmaker in action. Does anyone else Ghostmaker is influenced by Griffith form Berserk?
Love your content man! Don't ever stop! Comic Tom and Gem Mint just did a video talking about how you shouldn't fall for new modern spec books but here we are.
Does no else see that he's going to X? Like from the original teen titans tv show. He's got the scar like on X's mask and his current mask has an X right in the middle of it. Also a couple more on his outfit. Maybe i'm wrong but it would be cool.
Clown Hunter is 100% right. Gotham Police are either corrupt or incompetent, and the people rely too much on Batman. What's wrong with him personally putting a stop to the Joker?
Hey Variant, I've got some ideas for History of episodes: History of Hulkling (In honor of his role in Empyre) History of Wiccan History of Young Avengers History of the Power Pack And speaking of Power Rangers, can you do a rundown of Power Rangers: Sins of the Future when it comes out? It's a Time Force continuation coming in November.
Is it just me or does the X cut on the top of Bao's hair look exactly like Red X's x symbol on his mask and chest from the Teen Titans animated series. He also has an X on his Clownhunter helmet and a smaller x on his vest/chest piece like Red X. Maybe he'll become Red X or a form of it after he needs a suit upgrade or just needs to change his anti-hero persona because Batman already knows his real identity. Also his costumes colour theme is similar to Red X's with the red, black n white
He puts me in the mindset of Goblin Slayer. The unhealthy obsession with killing everyone in a specific group because of trauma they caused him when he was younger. Also the poor social skills.
Can you make an episode on you, Arris and your crew. I would really like to know more about the people in the channel that gives me so much to know and love
See this? THIS is how you do diversity in comics. Create characters that have interesting motivations and designs, and their skin color or preferences are just another part of them as a person, not their entire personality or claim to relevance. I didn't even really notice he was Viet until Arris said it out loud at the end. Make characters, not caricatures. Props to Tynion and DC on this one.
@@mamtajain8345 Everyone has inner demons. Including Superman, Spider-man, Flash etc. It's kind of a superhero trope. Defeating your inner demons and saving the day is what Superheroes are all about.
i thought Clownhunter was a good guy right he is a anti Hero like Red Hood also it would be cool if they teamed him up with Red Hood and made him his sidekick kind of like his Robin to Batman that would be pretty cool i think Red Hood and Clown Hunter as a team
I've now truly come to accepting that Batman at his very core is insane. Or at least IMO he is. This kid of course is understandably pissed and I want to know more about him. I think he is going to be a great anti hero.
I hope we see Ghost Maker making the Clown-hunter his sidekick. I really believe they would make a great team & GM even upgrades his weapons & costume definitely his bat.
Dude, [although we love and support your channel] when your intro plug is like half of the video, just make two. Came looking for clown hunter and I almost sat through 4mins of power rangers. Happy for your achievement, but that deserves its own video my guy. Much love out to you dude, peace.
Not gonna lie, Joker War was garbage. The ending was just Batman: Under the Red Hood but they swapped Jason Todd with Harley Quinn. Either Kill Joker Or Not. Stop dragging that question on.
Sad fact is Batman will never give in and kill the joker. He has already seen the Batman who laughs, a version of himself that actually did the deed and paid the ultimate price for it. Beyond that, he knows that is the ultimate temptation but he hast to struggle against every single time. The easy way is never the right way.
I like how the origins bumper is still the classic variant style I like their new style,don't get me wrong,but I'm glad they kept their old format alive in some way
I know there are a lot of reasons out there about why Batman doesn't kill and my favorite is that Bruce Wayne is so self-aware that if he starts killing villains he won't be able to stop and will start killing for less serious crimes
I bet the clown Hunter would join forces with Jason Todd and become like his Robin to his Batman that would be awesome
I kinda love this idea
That would make a good bit of sense
The authors should see this comment and implement it.

No
Yes
I don’t think not going to like being called s sidekick but l want Clownhunter to be red x and than we see a new outlaws

He would then probably follow that up with.

And speaking of Power Rangers, can you do a rundown of Power Rangers: Sins of the Future when it comes out? It's a Time Force continuation coming in November.
@Asthc_ Prmour Well, maybe if they had an episode or more exposure, more people would remember their lineups.
That thumbnail kinda reminds me of that image of Goku standing over Frieza
How fire would it have been if he just randomly said “your Bruce Wayne” but as a joke
Batman woulda had a Poker face.
I like Clownhunter so far. I hope we see more of him and the other new characters.
I have dreams when she ( Wonder Woman) just hugs me sometimes. It's nothing weird it's just a long hug. As if 🃏!!!
Is it just me or does the X cut on the top of Bao's hair look exactly like Red X's x symbol on his mask and chest from the Teen Titans animated series.
He also has an X on his Clownhunter helmet and a smaller x on his vest/chest piece like Red X. Maybe he'll become Red X or a form of it after he needs a suit upgrade or just needs to change his anti-hero persona because Batman already knows his real identity.
Also his costumes colour theme is similar to Red X's with the red, black n white
This guy clown hunter seems new...but I like him already also he might be another person to kill joker
Maybe as red hood Robin
He puts me in the mindset of Goblin Slayer. The unhealthy obsession with killing everyone in a specific group because of trauma they caused him when he was younger. Also the poor social skills.
Can you make an episode on you, Arris and your crew. I would really like to know more about the people in the channel that gives me so much to know and love
I think Clownhunter will be killed by Ghost-maker in front of Batman for being a killer vigilante.
And how do we know Ghost-maker isn't a killer vigilante.
This video:
60 percent promotion
40 percent clown hunter's origin lol😅
this comic is amazing for not focusing on one character instead focusing on multiple characters
See this? THIS is how you do diversity in comics. Create characters that have interesting motivations and designs, and their skin color or preferences are just another part of them as a person, not their entire personality or claim to relevance. I didn't even really notice he was Viet until Arris said it out loud at the end.
Make characters, not caricatures. Props to Tynion and DC on this one.
Batman advising therapy, ironic
How is that ironic?? Are you implying Batman is crazy??
@@brucew565 having mental issues and inner demons also need therapy
@@mamtajain8345 I don't know what character you are referring to but Batman has no mental issues. Not according to the canon.
@@mamtajain8345 Everyone has inner demons. Including Superman, Spider-man, Flash etc. It's kind of a superhero trope. Defeating your inner demons and saving the day is what Superheroes are all about.
i thought Clownhunter was a good guy right he is a anti Hero like Red Hood also it would be cool if they teamed him up with Red Hood and made him his sidekick kind of like his Robin to Batman that would be pretty cool i think Red Hood and Clown Hunter as a team
I've now truly come to accepting that Batman at his very core is insane. Or at least IMO he is. This kid of course is understandably pissed and I want to know more about him. I think he is going to be a great anti hero.
I hope we see Ghost Maker making the Clown-hunter his sidekick. I really believe they would make a great team & GM even upgrades his weapons & costume definitely his bat.
Bao and Jason would get along well
half the fucking video is an ad
Well,clownhunter is unique and i like it,the back story he don't tell is in the joker warzone book
I would love to hug gal gadot Wonder Woman I don’t find that weird she’s just so attractive
I am loving the clownhunter
Omg I love power rangers since a child i would honor that comic
Dude, [although we love and support your channel] when your intro plug is like half of the video, just make two. Came looking for clown hunter and I almost sat through 4mins of power rangers. Happy for your achievement, but that deserves its own video my guy. Much love out to you dude, peace.
I'm thinking he's more Anarky. Than red hood
He's like the KC Jones of Batman
I have a feeling he'll be some type of robin
Variant nation promotion: 70%
Actual video :30%
Not gonna lie, Joker War was garbage. The ending was just Batman: Under the Red Hood but they swapped Jason Todd with Harley Quinn. Either Kill Joker Or Not. Stop dragging that question on.
Clownhunter is easily Red Hood 2.0, but he’ll do great things too like Red Hood did!!
Also love how batman himself is standing in this guys room and he just doesn't seem to care its like "im batman" and the kid is like "mmhmmm
I have to say: ILOVE YOUR CONTENT!!! Keep going, bro. 😀💯
Red Hood: I work alone.
Clownhunter: Alow me to introduce myself.
Sad fact is Batman will never give in and kill the joker. He has already seen the Batman who laughs, a version of himself that actually did the deed and paid the ultimate price for it. Beyond that, he knows that is the ultimate temptation but he hast to struggle against every single time. The easy way is never the right way.
That's a long 4:34 minute ad, i hate it.
I like how the origins bumper is still the classic variant style
I like their new style,don't get me wrong,but I'm glad they kept their old format alive in some way
Damn I honestly thought he was gonna be Damian I can’t lie
We need The Red Hood and The Clownhunter to team up in the future!!! DC book it!!!!
I know there are a lot of reasons out there about why Batman doesn't kill and my favorite is that Bruce Wayne is so self-aware that if he starts killing villains he won't be able to stop and will start killing for less serious crimes
