BATJOKES
HI SO THIS SECTION IS PROBABLY TEMPORARY. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON A SHRINE DEDICATED SPECIFICALLY TO BATJOKES WHICH I WILL LINK WHEN ITS UP AND RUNNING. THE BATJOKES SHRINE IS PRETTY AMBITIOUS THOUGH SO IT MIGHT TAKE A MINUTE!
so what on earth is going on here: batjokes man... classic enemies to enemies that stab each other homoerotically. goddamn. they're so... they're everything to me if i'm being real. they're horrible for each other but like... they're both so awful i'd never wish them upon anyone else. on one hand all i want is bruce to put a bullet through jokers skull (and it has to be a bullet... it just does... does it count as a corruption arc if he's already like the worst guy ever?)... on the other hand i want them to go to therapy and never talk to each other ever again. bruce's family man... they don't deserve to deal with this bs. imagine being alfred and having to watch the man who is basically your son orbiting this man who won't stop hurting your family and they keep making each other Worse. like god. they're so fascinating to me... i am personally preferential to comic batjokes where they're just... the worst... imagine fighting tooth and nail to get the man who murdered your son off death row (the joker: devil's advocate)? but i'm also a sucker for more child-friendly batjokes like in the lego movie.
horrible stuff they won't stop saying: uh well i actually own the tp for white knight! so i can look at this scene in glorious detail, i love the art for white knight, i'm not crazy about "joker goes sane" stories since they're almost always ridiculously ableist, and white knight isn't an exception but like man... LOOK at them.
"we're a team, bats. admit it! that's our dynamic. all that's missing is the make-up sex." (batman: white knight vol 1 #1) i really like this one lol. joker's expression?? the fact that he's wearing his gay little fanboy outfit??? "you don't matter. not to me, not to gotham. not to anyone." okay it's funny you say that because i distinctly remember you telling joker that it isn't too late to turn over a new leaf and that you wanted to help him get better (batman: the killing joke - 1988) and i ALSO distinctly remember you fighting to save joker's life when he was on death row (the joker: devil's advocate - 1995) and i ALSO distinctly remember you saying and i quote "i'm just going to rest here a little while with my friend." (batman vol 2 #40). so idk man! i'm not calling the batman a liar but i'm totally 100% calling the batman a liar! uh i'm too lazy to get pictures now but more things i want to add "every breath you take you owe to me" (the joker: devil's advocate - 1995), the batjokes heartshaped pool of blood from endgame (batman vol 2 #40), the??? mask???? from deadly duo (batman & the joker: the deadly duo #2), new years kiss (batman: the long halloween - 2021), "i never thought it would end like this. him. me. our blood on each others lips" (batman: europa) (can't remember the issue rn). basically i have a lot to add because these assholes never stop.
