Hell yes. I read this thing when it dropped and felt I was reading a comedy. The Jessica stuff was so egregious and obvious yet the book thinks itself super clever. The Arkham family side B plot was also rather meandering but seeing Bruce handle a twinkle of familial hope was at least something sorta fresh? Him being an optimist. You guys really captured my expression with Catwoman, the plotting, the random character dump stuff in the last ten pages of the book, and loving Batdog. What a friggin wild, stupid, and hilariously bad ride. It looks astounding though, Gary Frank doesn’t ever miss.

Pitch for a earth one baby doll story using what you mentioned: Birthday boy is obsessed with the Babydoll show and has seemingly been placated by it but accidentally sees an ad that she's going to be at a local con on her character's birthday. So he breaks out of Arkham in the ensuing madness that joker is going to bring (it's joker so you know where that thread is going), goes to find her, we see she's on the shows on the edge of cancelation while doing the whole con signing autograph circuit and he "sneaks in"(kills people and takes their badges). The Con goers think he's cosplaying the birthday boy and he gets to her offers her a birthday cake with a candle and she refuses first in character but then drops the act when he doesn't seem to be getting it , it becomes a whole thing where security try to take him away, he kills the security and her witnessing all this causes her to snap. Then he's not paying attention she kills him rather viciously with his last gasp being the one that blows out the candle. She's taken away and it becomes a whole thing in the background of the on go story while batman fights and captures the joker. the sick a holes at the network like the publicity so much they decide to reboot baby doll show with her as lead but it's more a horror slasher angle like the "chilling adventures of Sabrina" type deal, she loses it during one instance that triggers the memory of the birthday boy massacre at the con and attempts to kill everyone on set leading to a situation referencing the TAS episode where batman is able to take her in after confronting her with her unhealthy obsessions.
@omarkarim22803 жыл бұрын
honestly, i think the whole thing of the Bat Family forming at the end would have worked if this was the last book. The Joker reveal ruins that. They gotta pick one, either have the family form as a “this is what the future that we won’t see looks like” or show Joker and say “next up we’re doing joker and maybe robin and batgirl” doing both doesn’t work

Wayne Tech Employee #1: No, that’s just crazy. What I’m saying is Mr. Wayne is financing Batman and giving him our inventions to fight crime with. After all how else would Batman afford all his gadgets. Wayne Tech Employee #2: But why would he do that? Wayne Tech Employee #3: Didn’t Mr. Wayne’s parents die at the hands of a gun toting criminal?

I think the best option for Vol 3, especially as a finale, would have been to go with something closer to Long Halloween or Hush where part of the dynamic is that these unhinged, esoteric criminals are spawning at a rate faster than Batman can handle them. You could even keep a lot of the existing elements that were here, Two Face could still be someone at play even a major mover in events. But have the focus more on how these events are snowballing. The absolute WORST criminals are seeing how having a "gimmick" can earn you instant cred. The "old school" gangsters are just getting out of dodge because these maniacs make "stable" criminal enterprises impossible. And everyone's chasing headlines. Maybe even have a whole subplot about "So what happens when all the people who were paying off the crooked cops closes shop and the checks stop coming?" All the cops with outstanding debts to the gangsters suddenly have ALL their markers called in. Cops who we know are shady as hell are now left desperate. And that's on top of The Ventriloquist, Killer Moth, Scarecrow, Mad Hatter, Clayface, and a dozen other villains all jumping into the scene within, like, a 6 month time span.
