I'm really digging the aesthetic of Neo Joker. The diamonds on her back, similar to her old motif, but intentionally sideways. The top one having a flower in the middle, like the iris of an eye, because all she sees are ways to get back to her old life of Stockholm Syndrome. I could be completely wrong, but mmm. Love me some good character design.
Love the Neo-Joker's real name: Marian Drews. Marian Drews = Mary Andrews. Julie *Andrews* played *Mary* Poppins. It's like a "clue" from the Adam West _Batman_ TV show.
If it wasn't for Rob I would have never gotten into reading comics. I had always been interested in comics but after watching Robs videos for years, I finally started reading them on my own and haven't stopped since.
Holy $#!+, Rob! I just had a thought! It’s something about Neo Joker’s name, Marianne Drews (that, and the image of this video at 7:25 😁). If you were to rewrite her name as Mary Andrews, a certain Disney character should ‘pop’ into your head. General Leia, imitated that Disney character, on “Star Wars: The Last Jedi”. Dude, “Mary Poppins”. Mary Poppins, was a character played by the actress Julie Andrews. I wonder if Sean Murphy ‘drew’ some inspiration for his creation. Just a thought 😅
Rob you rock dude! I love your You Tube Channel, I love the way you take the comics and condense it down and make me want to re-read or in some cases buy new comics. Could you do a series on your best picks of Graphic Novels or comics that have almanacs? Example Batman Court of Owls was turned into a Graphic Novel and is available in trade and digital. Would love to hear your picks on digital and old school comics. Keep up the great work, I’m a huge fan.
I dunno. To me it feels like this story only works because of how much stuff is changed and shoved in there. The characters just seem different than their common counterparts.
Because in the context of the series of videos it makes it sound like the Joker is back according to the title is my guess. He only calls her Lady Joker when she's first mentioned I believe.
Love this story Rob, keep it up! Really hope it has a happy ending with Napier fixing Gotham, instead of the predictable one of the Joker resurfacing and all of his hard work (and therefore this story) going to waste.
Usually stories like this, they make it clear to the reader that Batman is really the good guy and the people turning against him are just stupid... What I love about this story is that the reader is put in the same shoes of those people... questioning Batman, and not getting any explaination from Batman who doesn't feel the need to explain himself to anyone
If Jim Gordon confronts Batman about having the resources to help Gotham, does that mean that the Jim Gordon Batman story arc is officially not in continuity?
OMG every time I start getting sucked in I hear the words no one wants to hear...” With that being said guys” once I hear this, I’m pulled back into reality.
I wish Marian’s Harley Quinn would be brought over into the main DC Earth. Harleen is more like Deadpool right now and honestly I don’t care for it. She just doesn’t have the same charm he does. Marian loves the Joker because he saved her from herself. This idea is just perfect and the way she acts is like a true dark Harley.
So I'm really starting to have trouble differentiating between this channel and Comicstorian. I know that the two channels are close, but now it seems like they're just resummarizing stuff they've already covered so as not to get ahead of each other.
Her Origin reminded me of all the dead Harley's the real Harley found when he locked her up in that basement. It's safe to say that there may have been multiple Harley's as well which would add to the multiple Jokers if we ever get an update to that *heavy breathing*.
In the story When Joker kills Jason Todd we never see it and we never know what happened to Jason so maybe that's because Jason will come back as the red hood like in Arkham knight all like " I was alive in the sewers for 3 years Batman Aaaargh revenge" something like that.
I still say they would have found Not Joker hanging in his cell of an apparent suicide. Nobody would have batted an eye. I know it’s crazy to say I can’t suspend my disbelief on that part but I’m struggling there.
So let me get this straight. Everyone knows he's the joker. The man that killed hundreds if not thousands n they all support him?? Despite him killing some of their family member?? That's a pretty big hole in the story
D'Angelo Williams the reason for this is that Joker/Jack has finally come to his senses (became sane) and looks at the current situation by stating that whenever his persona/Joker is running around doing whatever crime he's doing, Batman has always came in full force destroying multiple buildings and structures. With the Gotham police covering up a vigilante (which even Gotham itself condemns in their code of laws) and putting full blame for these actions on the Joker, all media outlets and police force are focused on these criminals rather than focusing on the bigger picture which is multi-million businesses buying the broken down properties at a cheap price and then reconstructing and refurnishing these properties and selling them for a higher price than it was originally. Right now the citizens are infuriated and felt betrayed by their own government. This is where Joker comes in and shows that he may have been a villain himself, even a horrible one at that but he sees more hidden crime happening himself than what the citizens, media, and Gotham police believe they see.
Yeah and its an important point to the story as well. Since him being the Jokers shows that he can turn over a new leaf. But no matter how much good you do the Joker would always be a knife stuck in Gotham. I find it hard that even the people of BatPortwould side with him. Its an entertaining story but it just relies on too many things that just wouldnt happen
D'Angelo Williams be aware that in this universe the joker is not a killer, he is more of a classic joker goofing around and robbing things with no care of collateral damage, except that batman is the one making the damage destroying everything to catch him.
Enzo Gómez this joker may be toned down from our Joker however we dont know if he's just a goofball. The reactions of people lile Neo joker and the gcpd makes it seem like joker still kills without reason. He still is the worst villain of Gotham. Not a loveable rascal.
Desu Or Die yeah I agree he is the worst villian, but it seems that in this universe the only kill that is confirmed "at the moment" is Jason Todd out of jealousy. It seems we need to wait until is confirmed by some character that he actually kills a lot of people without reason, but until then is still not known if he is a mass psychopath in this universe.
Replacement Harley's made me think of the new 52 suicide squad when joker comes back and fights with Harley's then locks her in a room with all those bodies dressed as Harley... anyone else get that connection?
In that reality, Batman lived long enough to see himself become the villain.
Why so salty, bro?
Tajhan Stewart tf r u talking about lol its a joke like her account this had nothing to do wit u tho so y r u talking to me?
saiyan DNA quit being a troll.
till today's issue showed otherwise.
Sharil Shahed i cnt its in my blood
I love the part Napier is talking to Gordon and he says something about "those wonderful toys". Nice Nicholson quote.
3:05 so were not gonna talk about the cool ass panel with all the Batmobiles
I'm really digging the aesthetic of Neo Joker. The diamonds on her back, similar to her old motif, but intentionally sideways. The top one having a flower in the middle, like the iris of an eye, because all she sees are ways to get back to her old life of Stockholm Syndrome. I could be completely wrong, but mmm. Love me some good character design.
Stockholm Syndrome toward her father?
Love the Neo-Joker's real name: Marian Drews.
Marian Drews = Mary Andrews.
Julie *Andrews* played *Mary* Poppins.
It's like a "clue" from the Adam West _Batman_ TV show.
This story just really shows me batmans true weakness...politics
Latrell Perry Perry being a fukboy and politics, yup
You mean poor writing?
"Touching naughty bits" 😂🤣🤣
This story just gets more and more wild with every update. I love it!
At 13:20 he almost said Marvel Explained , old school robcorp members will get
That twist at the end mind blown amazing story, and great vid rob
I like the symbolism on the back of neo Jokers jacket. That rose over the eye says so much.
If it wasn't for Rob I would have never gotten into reading comics. I had always been interested in comics but after watching Robs videos for years, I finally started reading them on my own and haven't stopped since.
Holy throwback batman! 6:50 Jack uses the"All those wonderful toys" from the original batman movie.
Also this really had me up until the idea the Mr.Freeze is some immortal nazi. I know its elsewords but that is a bit out of left fields.
Bruce Wayne’s mother makes the best joker from the flashpoint paradox
Dennis Cleary her name's MARTHA!
DickinaBox why did you say that name!
ComicsExplained goes so good with coffee in the morning.
Loving this story Rob! Can't wait for next week!
Is Batman's philosophy in dealing with this "How can I make this worse"?
Honestly one of the most awesome stories in a long time!
this has to be one if the best batman stories ever.
Love it. Keep up the good work.
I don't know if it's good or bad thing that this story is making me root for the Joker to win
Is it just me or did this feel like a refresher on part three with a sprinkle of part four?
This is gonna be one Jokers best stories like killing joke
Sean Murphy killing covers,art,and story needs more world expanding
Holy $#!+, Rob! I just had a thought! It’s something about Neo Joker’s name, Marianne Drews (that, and the image of this video at 7:25 😁). If you were to rewrite her name as Mary Andrews, a certain Disney character should ‘pop’ into your head. General Leia, imitated that Disney character, on “Star Wars: The Last Jedi”.

It's related to clowns...

1:29 Still can’t tell if Jack Napier is good guy or bad guy
"...All those wonderful toys."
This story has not been released quick enough! It's sooo good
Am I the only one that noticed the N☆PI■R sign N-PI-R = Empire I thought it was rather clever
shadowstorm79mc Good eye bruh 👍🏾
Shit...
Damn this white knight series is so good, keep doing what your doing ComicsExplained! Rob Core strong!
It's rather obvious that he got the inspiration from real life.
this is amazing!
I love how at the end you almost said if you're new here to comicstorian
bro, your videos are dope.
Loving this series.
I dunno. To me it feels like this story only works because of how much stuff is changed and shoved in there. The characters just seem different than their common counterparts.
I can feel that joker is going to get it bad at the end of this lol this story so so good keep it up bro
This is great. You should use the audio for a podcast.
Great story rob
Okay, this is what I was hoping. That whole 2 Harley Quinn thing felt so weak before but this helps immensely in making that a good plot thread.
You need to do more stories like this one
Rob senpai, fear itself?
Thank you! This a great story!
Why call her Lady Joker instead of Neo Joker, you know, like the writer wanted?
Live To Rock lady joker sounds cooler
Because in the context of the series of videos it makes it sound like the Joker is back according to the title is my guess. He only calls her Lady Joker when she's first mentioned I believe.
I mean in the title, ugh, whatever it's stupid and it's stupid call her like that.
Live To Rock its a more clickbait title simple as that lol its not a big deal
Click bait, I mean.... I got baited XD
This story is actually amazing
Gordon and Joker’s interaction makes me think that the killing joke hasn’t happened in this universe
I don't think it has; Barbara isn't crippled or anything.
this comic series sounds fantastic
This is an AMAZING story!
12:20 Good to know datsuns and GTR's exist in dc universe
"Touching naughty bits".
great video
Damn rob this is a masterpiece of storytelling! I'm definitely rooting for jack
This is a hell of a take on gentrification. Brilliant!
This is such a great story!
Love this story Rob, keep it up! Really hope it has a happy ending with Napier fixing Gotham, instead of the predictable one of the Joker resurfacing and all of his hard work (and therefore this story) going to waste.
Preach my brother!!!
Happy birthday dude
It sucks that I couldn't read metal and white night at the same time.
I love this
did anyone watch the season premier of Legion? that dance was so unexpected and yet everything i wanted.
Ahh this is such a good story.
Can this get an actual playlist?
*JACK IS GONNA FIND OUT HOW IT FEELS TO BE THE GOOD GUY AND HAVE ANOTHER JOKER OUT THERE FUCKING UP THE PLANS...lol*
Touching Naughty Bits LOL
This story sorta reminds me of season 2 of the Batman telltale series and season 1
Usually stories like this, they make it clear to the reader that Batman is really the good guy and the people turning against him are just stupid... What I love about this story is that the reader is put in the same shoes of those people... questioning Batman, and not getting any explaination from Batman who doesn't feel the need to explain himself to anyone
If Jim Gordon confronts Batman about having the resources to help Gotham, does that mean that the Jim Gordon Batman story arc is officially not in continuity?
How have you read something that doesn’t come out until September?
my question is with i should start to read green latern? with the secret origin, then sinestro core and then the blackest night?
green latern corp?
I know this question is not related to the video
Can venom use his jaws or are they just for a horrifying and intimidating appearance?
I NEED MORE DAMMIT MORE
Yeah. That's really good writing.
The joker's family is coming near you.
The thumbnail is my lockscreen lol
Is backcourt a thing in the main universe of DC?
OMG every time I start getting sucked in I hear the words no one wants to hear...” With that being said guys” once I hear this, I’m pulled back into reality.
Will u be doing a video on doomsday clock #4?
so just like there are three jokers there are three harleens?
Before watching I'm gonna guess it's the other harley quin
Rob i have a question for you, can Wolverine's claws cut Luke Cage?
Lady Joker doesn’t look deranged enough. She’s too neat and tidily dressed to fit the role properly.
I wish Marian’s Harley Quinn would be brought over into the main DC Earth. Harleen is more like Deadpool right now and honestly I don’t care for it. She just doesn’t have the same charm he does. Marian loves the Joker because he saved her from herself. This idea is just perfect and the way she acts is like a true dark Harley.
So Thomas Was Dealing with Shady people? So does that mean They're Taking a Chapter from the Telltale Batman Game?
So I'm really starting to have trouble differentiating between this channel and Comicstorian. I know that the two channels are close, but now it seems like they're just resummarizing stuff they've already covered so as not to get ahead of each other.
love the story man but it looks like Harley got your tongue at the end
You sound more joy full than old you
Backport seems like The Narrows from Gotham
Her Origin reminded me of all the dead Harley's the real Harley found when he locked her up in that basement. It's safe to say that there may have been multiple Harley's as well which would add to the multiple Jokers if we ever get an update to that *heavy breathing*.
...yeah, main universe Joker has done some terrible things....I wish they could fix it with the three Jokers story line.
God, I love White Knight so much!
Rob, are you reading Tom King's run on Mister Miracle?
Can you do a video of how blade can join the mcu
This video was like ten seconds of neo joker...
Where is the rest of this story?
Is it digital, or a sheet?
In the story When Joker kills Jason Todd we never see it and we never know what happened to Jason so maybe that's because Jason will come back as the red hood like in Arkham knight all like " I was alive in the sewers for 3 years Batman Aaaargh revenge" something like that.
I still say they would have found Not Joker hanging in his cell of an apparent suicide. Nobody would have batted an eye. I know it’s crazy to say I can’t suspend my disbelief on that part but I’m struggling there.

Oh boy I think you’d enjoy Batman: Hush and even Batman RIP
