Good thing he talked about Raid Shadow legends man I wasn't gonna be able to sleep tonight unless he talked about it because hes never talked about it before, in fact I probably wasn't gonna be able to smoke another cigarette until I heard about it.
I like it when characters end up in situations where there trapped in a corner and characters have to find inventive/new ways to defeat the villian. This reminds me of the storyline there doing for dragon ball super manga and for the character moro.
_ Sinister_ meerus isn’t really allowed to do anything since he’s an angel. Meerus is just going to distract moro until dende comes to heal them. But, if Moro V.S. meerus actually happens, meerus will easily win as long as moro can’t absorb his power.
@@blackkidblackkid5378 nah its dark night. when Joker is on the hanging off the roof thing. it's on this video th-cam.com/video/cGXaRBMPnM0/w-d-xo.html at 3:15
This is why I think Jason statement is correct and why he is the best Robin. Like Batman have you thought that hmmm maybe putting the bad guys in Gotham Asylum/Jail just for them to get out and start to kill more people and causing more chaos DIDN’T DO THE FUCKING TRICK.
Jah Jah Binks Yeah when I say the best Robin I mean it as of “from all the other Robins he’s the how can put 2+2 (ofc not including Red Robin) together and was like yeah maybe killing the bad guys is better WICH IS TRUE
Regarding that suit I see 2 possibilities it was made by the Joker after the takeover for a suit on suit battle (or even a suited joker vs unsuited Bruce in order to further the whole "he took everything that you had from you" deal) But it looks pretty normal for it to be for the Joker plus now that Lucius is being at least partially controlled by the Joker he would know about it, here he says he thought Bruce himself made the suit since he didnt know about it (I guess he could be forced to lie by the toxin but he doesn't seem to be that under control yet) The other possibility (which I like more) I'm guessing that suit was somehow prepared by Alfred years ago and meant to be deployed in the event of his death, maybe it took years and years for Alfred to secretly make it since he doesn't have the same skills as Lucius or Bruce but over Batman's whole career he archived info from all his fights and compiled that into an all purpose super suit that probably only Bruce himself can wear and that would be why nobody has touched it yet I could even see Alfred leaving Bruce a video message from when he was making the suit (something like the Dr Light capsules in Megaman X lol) that plays as soon as Bruce puts it on and then Alfred does a sort of "if you are watching this that means I am dead" explaining that he knew that if he were to die that would probably be because that the situation has become quite dire since that would mean the villains have managed close enough to Bruce and put everyone in danger so he made that suit in an attempt to give Batman an edge and gain back the upper hand something like that lol
I like Joker War...but i also do feel like Joker has been over used over the past 5 years...and this event would have been just as cool if The Penquin was the main antagonist 🤨🤨🤨
Joker has been used a lot, you're completely right. My take on it is, the Joker is such an iconic figure, no one else can bring the right feel to a big comic book moment like this. The Joker with everything vs a Batman with nothing, it feels impactful and a lot 'scarier' than any other Bat Villain with the same premise.
Steven Hudson But is it really high stakes? We’ve seen this done before throughout various forms of media (with different characters, granted), and we all know DC’s not gunna kill off Batman. What stakes are there really? And I don’t mean for this to come off as an attack against you, I’m just tired of the same cycle of “Oh no! Our beloved hero might die in this event!” results in very little shake up. They need to phase these characters out and let the legacy heroes take up the mantles
Hi. First of all, sorry for My english. Second, I am not a really comics fan (în My country are expensive and not so popular, but i read some of them). Do you have a list în order with every Batman Who laugh/dark metal/dark multiverse arc? I wish i could read everithing from this series. Thanks a lot!
It started with a bang! I loved it, the art by Jiminez was fantastic (as usual). I got my copy yesterday and have read it. But somehow, your narration makes it even better. I have a feeling that by the time this Joker war us done, Batman would be much darker and might have to cross THAT line this time.
I'm really digging this run and excited to see where the Joker War goes from here. I'm also hyped to see how Punchline is developed - she hasn't disappointed yet IMO.
I find it hard to get into Batman and Joker's stories now with all the multiversal chaos going on with the Batman Who Laughs. It's like they've already done the most insane thing they could come up with and everything else doesn't seem to matter. Also this "war" could easily be solved by calling in Superman or Flash to blitz everyone out.
initially when u said the premise was 'Joker uses Batmans tech against him' I wasn't really on board. But seeing the end of the issue leaves me intrigued.
it's not him, he gets a script handed to him by Raid. The content creators don't really get a say, which is fair considering how much money is thrown at them.
Does anyone else remember the comic when Spider-Man was fighting the vulture and landed in some green chemicals that turned him into a kid and THEN teamed up with the power pack?
So batman was already smirking at the beginning of this comic, pretty much knowing that the Joker and him were going to battle it out for years and countless innocent people were going to die despite it all. And alfred's smirking too "oh yeah we're gonna get him"
The Flashback scene is referencing Brubaker "The Man who laughs" which is the first Batman/Joker encounter, at least the one considered cannonical, is a little different from the 1945 Batman #1 Jokers debut but in theory that because of the first reboot of the DC Universe fruit of the first Crisis. Apart from these two there are other retales of Batman/ Joker first battle but I suppose since this is the one being referenced so many times (Death in the Family for example) I'm gonna guess "The Man who laughs" is indeed the new cannonical joker debut in lore.
You asked if we were tired of the Joker, how could you possibly be tired of the Joker. He is the best villain ever, so chaotic and beyond crazy and insane. I love your vids btw!
Oh boy. This seems like this will be a great story, and may become as influential as something like the killing joke or dark knight. I know I may he annoying you every video, but I would love a History of Bane or Doctor Doom. Some of my absolute favorite villians of all time, and they both have great stories.
8:10 If Batman nor Lucius made that new suit then I am willing to bet Alfred did and had it ready/waiting as a gift but was killed before he could give it to bruce.
Not only the joker is batman greatest enemy. He is also one of the most difficult opponents that batman had to face. Even if batman win because, well....... he's batman. But we as an audience reading the past battle of bats and MR J. We are fully aware just how hard to win agains't the joker.
I would love for the comics and DC animated movies to explore Prometheus I think with a good set up he could become a really popular mainstream villain
Batman would actually being using electric suction cup when. He uses the building, kinda it is called Van der Wall's force and it is how spiders climb walls in real life and it attracts based on very low eletro-magnetic attraction. Because science did a whole cool video explaining this.
"All Arkham City style." Um not wanting to break it to you but that technology known as detective mode was also in Asylum, Origins, and Knight not just City
Joker: "I have a new game for us to play, bats!"
Batman: "I'm through with your games, Joker."
Joker: "But have your tried 'Raid: Shadow Legends'?"
I laughed way too much at this lol
After all it's all about war 😋
Underrated
jesus thats funny :)
I heard this in Mark Hammels voice and everything 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m so excited for joker war I’m not even mad about raid shadow legends
You don’t get mad at raid shadow legends, raid shadow legends gets mad at you
Ash Ketchup legit tho
Thank you I skipped forward 2 min
I am
Not gonna lie, their the only ads that are starting to grow on me, even though ill never play the game
“Master of disguise” wearing a open black coat with huge batman logo on his chest 😌🤝
He removed his coat at that time. Artistically it's for the reader to see it is Batman
I think he’s joking guys...
Ron Ivan lol.
@Ron Ivan nah.
He was taking off the jacket
This was some high octane, full throttle, all gas, intense, Michael Bay explosion episode
Was it, in your eyes, a good one? I thought it was good.
I have a question.... but first Raid: Shadow legends.
Good thing he talked about Raid Shadow legends man I wasn't gonna be able to sleep tonight unless he talked about it because hes never talked about it before, in fact I probably wasn't gonna be able to smoke another cigarette until I heard about it.
Jason Todd 😂😭
Any support for raid is an auto thumbs down for me even if I support the channel normally
@@lucifchristo have you HEARD of Raid Shadow Legends? Just asking
The mexican homer simpson is a sellout
I like it when characters end up in situations where there trapped in a corner and characters have to find inventive/new ways to defeat the villian. This reminds me of the storyline there doing for dragon ball super manga and for the character moro.
Who’s gonna win Moro or meerus
How many people joker killed??? I guess those people's lives doesn't mean anything ...oh comic?
_ Sinister_ meerus isn’t really allowed to do anything since he’s an angel. Meerus is just going to distract moro until dende comes to heal them. But, if Moro V.S. meerus actually happens, meerus will easily win as long as moro can’t absorb his power.
I think I remember a quote with Joker saying to Batman that “You and I are destined to do this forever” I’m just not sure which movie it was 😅
The Dark Knight
I think that was 89 maybe
pretty sure it was the dark knight when batman throws him over the building and grapples him up

idk man, joker really doesn't give a shit about almost anything.
@Langdon Alger agreed
have a feeling bruce is gonna retire after joker war ends and settle down with selina. While dick becomes the new dark knight.
@@faiaazfardin1596 i wouldnt be suprised if that happened after this.
Wasn't there three Jokers, or was that retconned or something
Supposedly, that’s still gunna be released
Book starts this August
this
I thought the Joker war would be about the three jokers but that story is coming in August
The first issue of that storyline was supposed to come out June 17th, but it was delayed to August.
At this point, Batman should just kill the Joker!
I guess
This is why I think Jason statement is correct and why he is the best Robin.
Like Batman have you thought that hmmm maybe putting the bad guys in Gotham Asylum/Jail just for them to get out and start to kill more people and causing more chaos DIDN’T DO THE FUCKING TRICK.
@@theworldisfuckedupatm3398 Jason is better as the red hood. But as Robin, he was a carbon copy of Dick at first.

Mikey Lejan Should have done it a long time ago🤷♀️
Video starts @2:08
Regarding that suit I see 2 possibilities
it was made by the Joker after the takeover for a suit on suit battle (or even a suited joker vs unsuited Bruce in order to further the whole "he took everything that you had from you" deal) But it looks pretty normal for it to be for the Joker plus now that Lucius is being at least partially controlled by the Joker he would know about it, here he says he thought Bruce himself made the suit since he didnt know about it (I guess he could be forced to lie by the toxin but he doesn't seem to be that under control yet)
The other possibility (which I like more)
I'm guessing that suit was somehow prepared by Alfred years ago and meant to be deployed in the event of his death, maybe it took years and years for Alfred to secretly make it since he doesn't have the same skills as Lucius or Bruce but over Batman's whole career he archived info from all his fights and compiled that into an all purpose super suit that probably only Bruce himself can wear and that would be why nobody has touched it yet
I could even see Alfred leaving Bruce a video message from when he was making the suit (something like the Dr Light capsules in Megaman X lol) that plays as soon as Bruce puts it on and then Alfred does a sort of "if you are watching this that means I am dead" explaining that he knew that if he were to die that would probably be because that the situation has become quite dire since that would mean the villains have managed close enough to Bruce and put everyone in danger so he made that suit in an attempt to give Batman an edge and gain back the upper hand
something like that lol
My feeling is on the latter possibility
That Dr.Light statement brought back some sweet sweet Megaman X5 memories
One call to Superman would even the odds pretty damn quick lol
"The battle is over....

DC has been overusing both Batman and Joker for the last couple of years
Steven Hudson But is it really high stakes? We’ve seen this done before throughout various forms of media (with different characters, granted), and we all know DC’s not gunna kill off Batman.

Then they’d just be ripping off Telltales Batman completely
We need a two-face story
"...or are you just tired of Joker?"
*_bold of you to assume-_*
I’m actually really pumped for this arc, Tynion knows what he’s doing
I’ve yet to be disappointed in Batman, dude is my favorite superhero. The writers keep finding ways to up the stakes, amazing, love Batman.
Been here for 4 years and love your channel
Joker War is basically Endgame on steroids.
Thank you for covering it ahead :)

I love your vids man can’t wait for more joker war ❤️
huh, the first pages are a direct reference to "The Man Who Laughs" comic by Ed Brubaker
Man I know I'm 1 whole year late, but no one ever gets tired of the joker
Looks cool, but tired of the Joker's schemes
Is this going to be better than the “War of Jokes and Riddles?”
I hope
I believe it will
Therin Morgan “I hope?” You didn’t like War of Jokes and Riddles? Strange, I loved it!
FWC Disciple That’s far from the truth I loved it but I really hope that joker war can give me a more compelling read
Astronaut: Wait it's all been Raid Shadow Legends?! Other Astronaut: Always has been.
initially when u said the premise was 'Joker uses Batmans tech against him' I wasn't really on board. But seeing the end of the issue leaves me intrigued.
I'm just gonna wait for you next upload, I can't go to a physical store because of this pandemic.... Thank you Arris!!
Love your videos dude! For someone who doesn't have access to comics, I am very thankful for what you do! Will wait for your next videos about this!
He's gonna slip in at right time say "I am Batman" at kick ass under impossible odds
This could have been an arkham game
almost a year ago they said the element x batsuit was the last one
8:13
No the most powerful one not the last
Another awesome episode
So im not really into Raid but i mean u breaking it down for me through mechanics as a sponsorship is pretty nice execution, well done!
it's not him, he gets a script handed to him by Raid. The content creators don't really get a say, which is fair considering how much money is thrown at them.
You guys should make a history of the micronauts episode
I honestly think joker is gonna die at the end of this comic
Love this Channel bc I don't have the time to read all comics like I use to.
So I'm always up to date on everything here . RESPECT 🤜🏾
Comics explained and comicstorian are good too
Hey Arris, can you do a complete history of the Wasp and the Power Pack? They're way too underrated.
I support this so much !
Word
Does anyone else remember the comic when Spider-Man was fighting the vulture and landed in some green chemicals that turned him into a kid and THEN teamed up with the power pack?
@@StinkStankStinky Thank you!
I don't really get tired of the Joker as long as they keep him and his plans fresh. Like this.
Keep this up you do a great job
LOVED THE EPISODE,QUESTION 1-WHEN ARE THESE EPISODES COMING OUT???WEEKLY???
2-WHEN IS THE REST OF THE JOKER WAR COMING OUT!
Batman doesn't has gadgets or resources... He still is a master martial artist... And proficient in every science...
I cant believe Power Rangers: Ranger Slayer 1 didnt make the pull list
Joker Wars is totally a movie material. It should be made into movie for sure.
FYI: this event started actually began in Nightwing Volume 4 (2016) #70 and Detective Comics Volume (1937) #1,022 #JokerWar
So batman was already smirking at the beginning of this comic, pretty much knowing that the Joker and him were going to battle it out for years and countless innocent people were going to die despite it all.
And alfred's smirking too
"oh yeah we're gonna get him"
{8:06} - I hope, the suit has biometric security...???!...
Batman comes out with new Comic
Joker: yes
The Flashback scene is referencing Brubaker "The Man who laughs" which is the first Batman/Joker encounter, at least the one considered cannonical, is a little different from the 1945 Batman #1 Jokers debut but in theory that because of the first reboot of the DC Universe fruit of the first Crisis. Apart from these two there are other retales of Batman/ Joker first battle but I suppose since this is the one being referenced so many times (Death in the Family for example) I'm gonna guess "The Man who laughs" is indeed the new cannonical joker debut in lore.
This series is where they may just end up killing off the joker only to have punchline pick up his mantle
Preordered all the comics. So excited!
I'm going to keep reading it and I hope all the tie in to it be really good
Bro you’re always good thanks for the play-by-play
You asked if we were tired of the Joker, how could you possibly be tired of the Joker. He is the best villain ever, so chaotic and beyond crazy and insane. I love your vids btw!
(Insert whatever word) War , is every dc comics big event name
I am so excited for the Joker war, but first, HaVe YoU hEaRd Of RaId: ShAdOw LeGeNdS
I would suspect that sticking to the walls was Batman taking a page from the Flash and how he goes up the walls.
One of the best joker stories ever
Great video!!
I love how no one addresses that Punchline is based on all E-girls. She is Hell Delphine.
@Super Sentai Guy100 haha thanks mang!
I love the setup so far! I hope you revisit each new chapter!
Why is that after 19 years of living i finally understand why Harley was so in love with the Joker for such a long time. Its intoxicating.
I’m just a fat guy from New Jersey, but knowing the jokers name kinda takes the fun out of it.
Joker: "I now own your company!"
Bruce Wayne, richest man in the world: "So, it's in your name, and we know who you are now?"
Awsome 👍🏼 How could anyone ever get tired of Joker.
Variant is awesome!
Agreed!
Cant wait for Dicks return, hope jasons tie in wont separate him further from the batfamily
Actualy i really loke the idea of puting out new Joker material ... But they forgoten about the Pinguin hey , lets keep up the good work
At least Batman still got his Bat Cookies and Bat Milk so he's fine
Maybe it's just me, but the Bat-Mobile looks like a modernized version of the 60s Adam West Bat-Mobile
Oh boy. This seems like this will be a great story, and may become as influential as something like the killing joke or dark knight. I know I may he annoying you every video, but I would love a History of Bane or Doctor Doom. Some of my absolute favorite villians of all time, and they both have great stories.

If Batman nor Lucius made that new suit then I am willing to bet Alfred did and had it ready/waiting as a gift but was killed before he could give it to bruce.

never tire of the JOKER 60YRS
Love ur vids!!!
This is gonna be BADASS!!!
Begun, the joker war has
U can see how batman is holder his anger to not kill joker
Crazy, Just crazy. Batman got to be at his best to save this one.
Electro magnetic suction is a thing, its what makes gekos walk on walls
I would love for the comics and DC animated movies to explore Prometheus I think with a good set up he could become a really popular mainstream villain
Can someone explain to me how this is the main continuity Batman but joker war and the Batman who laughs storyline is going on at the same time?
Batman would actually being using electric suction cup when. He uses the building, kinda it is called Van der Wall's force and it is how spiders climb walls in real life and it attracts based on very low eletro-magnetic attraction. Because science did a whole cool video explaining this.
"All Arkham City style." Um not wanting to break it to you but that technology known as detective mode was also in Asylum, Origins, and Knight not just City
When did the joker find out Batman's Bruce ???
I kinda noticed a bit of tension between Jim Gordon and Joker too. Esspacally during the Killing Joke Storyline.
Make a video of Lucifer Morningstar vs beyonder please 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Joker War sounds awesome.
