[@tamedthethreebears]

After a long day of adulting it's nice to sit back and watch an awesome Batman/Joker story !

[@variant]

Always. 😎

[@bestsnowboarderuknow]

@@variant Proof these usurp the market for comics.

[@NewswithJu]

Nothin better

[@jingleballs9935]

That brave and the bold comic is awesome. Love the art and how almost creepy they made joker. His design is great.

[@variant]

Agreed!

[@kevinfancy5170]

They need to come out with an uncensored version of this!

[@Zekrel]

I love how we almost never see the Joker speaking in this comic run. We little old-timey texts telling us he is talking, but we only get a couple or more panels of him actually speaking without them.

[@Lasota2202]

your videos is what got me back into comics 3 years ago! much love mr quiñones

[@vand0801]

Why am I hearing Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill's voice in Batman and Joker

[@drphot6050]

Because they were the best!

[@Bogeyman8709]

Tom King and Mitch Gerads nailed this!

[@jeffjones7358]

Love the content

[@TheEntertainmentKnight]

I love this It really shows how Batman and Joker are the same in different sides of the coin

[@thejourneyofph1049]

i love these longer videos

[@ProoFyxD]

See what the main reader doesn’t get is that the side of good and evil are very thin line in between that’s where madness comes to play and that’s why the joker and Batman will always fight it’s like what happens when an unstoppable force meets a immovable object. Neither side wins in the end.

[@Thecomicslife]

Amazing Video like always!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@variant]

Thanks for watching!

[@jasengriffin485]

Great production guys. Enjoyed the story telling!

[@johnpauldriskill8737]

DC comics gets more confusing every time a new story comes out and contradicts a formerly established story can’t keep up with this shit 😂

[@krisscanlon4051]

This looks very good yet gruesome

[@Martianking966]

Always loved your content variant❤ , why don't you guys do an episode about the Batman gargoyle of Gotham series

[@inshal6420]

Always love a new video by this channel. Tbh I just view Scott Snyder’s Batman as it’s own universe at this point. In my head Last Night on Earth is canon. Idk what they been doing since he left lol.

[@t6y6fihu8hy9jjuhi]

That armor is just like the Fluted Set from the original Demon's Souls, the same one I use as profile pic lol.

[@quentinfogger5755]

Can you do history of Alfred Pennyworth, Batwing, Flame Bird, Batwoman, Azrael, Signal(Duke Thomas), Bluebird, Stephanie Brown and Carrie Kelly?

[@thesmilyguyguy9799]

So This Is A New Take ON The 1st Joker Story Cool

[@Jason-wp7ed]

Criminal: You gotta help me please! Batman: I would…However you just said I can’t touch you so🤷🏾‍♂️. I suggest you choose your words carefully in the next life.

[@lohkie2__3]

You would think the water supply would be more protected by now lol And yes, I know this is an older time-line 😊

[@quentinfogger5755]

Can you do history of the villains of the Stargirl TV show like Mr_Bones, Dragon king, Brainwave and Icicle? When are you going to do history of the Flash Villains Mirror Master and Top since the second half of season 6 of the Flash has finished? Can you do history of the Atom, Major_Force, Captain Atom, Plastique, the Blackhawks, Rocket Red Brigade, Maxima, El-Dorado, Element Woman, Metamorpho, Mr Terrific and Plastic Man along with the history of the Villains Dr Alchemy and Abracadabra?

[@samythekay]

Just in case, both "the Man who laughs" and "Winning card" are revamped relectures of 1940's Batman #1, keeping most major steps and story progressions of the Joker's 1st appearance.

[@quentinfogger5755]

Since you did the origin of Sonic the Hedgehog characters Tails and Knuckles in your previous video, when are you going to do history of Sonic the Hedgehog himself? When are you going to do history of JSA member Cyclone along with DC Sabbac since he's the main Villain of the Black_Adam movie?

[@quentinfogger5755]

When are you going to do history of Marvel's Sandman and Kurt Conners the Lizard since they made a live action comeback in Spider-Man No Way Home along with the Elementals who were mentioned in Spider-Man Far From Home?

[@joshuaizly5502]

Yeah Batman will never fix Gotham but we like to see him try

[@recommendedforyou2936]

Can u please do a history of scorpion from spiderman

[@quentinfogger5755]

Since you did the history of Conrad Carapax, Are you going to do history of OMAC, Overthrow, Dr Polaris, Posse and the Brotherhood of Evil who are all Blue_Beetle villains without a Scarab? Can you please do origin of DC the Reach who are the aliens who created the Scarab of the Blue_Beetle since no one else has done an origin video of them? Since you did the comic book origin Dan Garett, Ted Kord and Jamie Reyes the Blue Beetle, can you do comic book origin of DC Black_Beetle, Red Beetle, Green Beetle, Yellow Beetle and the Silver_Scarab?

[@matduesdieker3001]

Love it!

[@chriscripplercruz1833]

Looks like Batman has a lot of gold teeth lol

[@kingshadow8782]

Nice.

[@LilCurtisKeepASwitch-m9r]

Can someone please explain that mechanic joke Batman told the Joker?

[@yeer1888]

Batman has a habit of naming things after a bat. Batcycle, batmobile, batarang. The batmobile had a problem with the BAT-tery.

[@LilCurtisKeepASwitch-m9r]

@@yeer1888 Ohhhh thx

[@Ubermensch9240]

And you thought Darksied was scary.

[@Rob_Watch]

How much of King's mommy issues were brought into the story?

[@quentinfogger5755]

What do you think is the best thing about this comic book event and who do you think is the best character?

[@quentinfogger5755]

What would happen if we saw this comic book event taking place on the Big Screen or TV Shows?

[@zsfantasticbooks]

Will you do an episode of Sonic the hedgehog comics? That'll be cool

[@quentinfogger5755]

Dude, this channel didn't a origin video of Sonic the Hedgehog even though they did for Tails and Knuckles

[@drphot6050]

Hopefully they use this story in The Batman 2

[@devinwatkins8953]

Correct me of im.wrong but in the first one. It seems like joker and batman had there first encounter already off screen

[@thesmilyguyguy9799]

Il Like If They Use Batman The Cult

[@lilwatercup6594]

which volumes did he read can anyone tell me because i want to get them now

[@m.y1152]

Alfred written 10/10

[@lepanzon]

Just bought and finished this story today. I thought it was meh. Not bad, but not great either. Had good moments though

[@martinbauzon7450]

woah

[@edwardbrock5791]

"Never again not one more name" Then joker still manage to kill several people over the years after that event including Bruce's second adopted child 🙃 sometimes batman is more like a 🤡 than the joker 🥲

[@KylanWhittaker]

why? because he doesn't kill, get over yourself.

[@quentinfogger5755]

Can't imagine why Joker isn't in one of Amanda Waller's prisons if he's got crazy ideas and is a serial killer

[@albertgongora6944]

Love the joker and I love Batman but this shit needs to stop and they need to give him a new villain there's just been too much joker

[@quentinfogger5755]

What do you think Batman would be like if he was able to maintain his sanity the whole time during this? What would happen if the Joker was put in one of Amanda Waller's prisons?

[@DemetriusWashington-hz5wp]

Now we all knew the joker was crazy insane matter of fact but climbing in the toilet how in the world

[@elreyyakko]

At start you say "unaliving", but later say killing, can it be said or no? See so many videos now with "unaliving", instead of murder or killed, which exactly is the "correct" one nowadays? 🤔😵‍💫

[@SohailSomwaru]

Marvel Bat 🦇 men (Moon Knight, The Shroud, Cloak, The Punisher, Nighthawk, Black Panther 🐆, Daredevil)E.T.C.!

[@Mavsince05]

None can compare to the original

[@SohailSomwaru]

@@Mavsince05 Moon 🌚 Knight is actually Bat 🦇 Man 👨 What If? He had different personalities issue The Shroud is What If? Bat 🦇 Man 👨 has magic 🪄/occult abilities Cloak is What If? Bat 🦇 Man 👨 is black and has magic 🪄/occult abilities The Punisher is What If? Bat 🦇 Man 👨 stopped holding back Nighthawk is basically Black Bat 🦇 Man 👨 from another universe/dimension Black Panther 🐆 and DC has thier version with Red Lion 🦁 is he’s black, a billionaire and dresses 👗 up 🆙 as an animal 🦒 to fight +they have their unique skills when it comes to fighting with martial arts 🥋 Daredevil is basically What If? Bat 🦇 Man 👨 fought crime blind

[@kvn12pal]

This arc makes me like Batman even less. Joker is a serial killer. The justice system never sentenced Joker a death penalty. Joker goes to Arkham and escapes. I wish Batman would end this cycle.

[@KylanWhittaker]

Then you must not like most superheroes if you're saying something like this.

[@darkestgreed]

Can we get a bloodwynd video?

[@ang3536]

after these recent years batman and joker movies, live and animated, I have reached the point of being turned off with joker . So we don't follow any Batman story wherein the joker is the villain. I'm done with Batman/Joker -- that is why the only Batman-centric comic book that I follow is World's Finest! of course, I skipped the joker issue.

[@shermanbailey9517]

Wow

Worst comic story ever. Leave batman alone from bad writing
