The Gotham City Sirens mini series hits the halfway mark with Punchline revealing her plan to White Rabbit. Can Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn and Catwoman stop her? Why do they want to? The Leah Williams take on Batman's core female baddies teaming up presents some highs and lows which we discuss here on Casually Comics! Bonus points for editors notes lol

A game called My Free Farm from upjers. Which is as the name suggests just a farming one. I started playing it in August 2010. Thought 'growing computer crops? Is this going to be worth it?'. ' Fourteen years later and my farm is still going and it's much much bigger now. So to myself of 2010: yes.

Well said. Honestly I think Pam would've un-alived Punchline back when she attacked Harley. If I was a Super Villain in DC, I would plain avoid attacking anything Pam loves. Anything harming the environment or Harley, would be plain stupid in the DC verse. That said, at least Punchline as a character seems to be better written this time around.

I've gotta be honest, Punchline is really starting to grow on me after all the coverage on this channel. I didn't like her at the start because she was WAY too overpowered and didn't have any sort of backstory or in-canon reason as to why she was so hyper-competent and capable of literally anything; she was almost Mary Sue-ish, and was really annoying and frustrating to read because of it. I've actually really started to like her now that she's been toned down and better defined, and that she's being used more sparingly and isn't being shoehorned into any book the writers could possibly add her into. I wouldn't say that Punchline has become one of my favs, but I can say that I do like her and find her interesting and genuinely like seeing more from her. Thanks for all the Punchline coverage, Sasha, definitely keep it up. 😁

I can genuinely understand why the Sirens are acting off their game because I still don't think they take Punchline seriously as a threat yet. They're acting like they're on their way to take out Calendar Man or something, not a big bad. Which makes sense since I've always gotten the feeling they are treating her like she's having a weird little girl moment since she's younger than them.

When I was a kid they had notes for days which helped me really get into the lore along with the letters columns and Ask The Answer Man. And they really came in handy when I discovered comic book shops with back issues because bound collections were rare. They started to show up less after the first Crisis.

I do have questions: If they were going by the idea that White Rabbit was kidnapped because she "tested/tracked well" with Punchline's hottub stream audience, why redesign her costume NOW when having the original would make more sense in this context? Why not redesign it after this is over with as a result of this adventure? And if the answer is that White Rabbit isn't making it out of this story, why bother with a redesign at all? I don't dislike the new look mind you, it just would have made sense with the type of audience who would want her specifically cross with people would would watch Punchline's stream. Also I don't believe that's Perry the Convenience Store clerk, he's not even wearing a Fedora.

@titheproven954 Ай бұрын
I also think it might have something to do with making her costume more appealing to female readers. I do think the GSS comics more than others get a female audience (and White Rabbit is lesser known) this makes her look more appealing for what is likely to be a new female audience.

I’ve always wondered but WHY does White Rabbit do what she does? Like why is she dressed as a white rabbit? Why does she do crime? Have they ever explained it? Like if she was a part of the Wonderland gang, it’ll make sense, or do people just pay her to get Batman to chase her in their traps or smth? I love her original outfit, the colours and colour composition are amazingly y2k gta baddie stripper idc I’d wear it too, but WHY a playboy bunny/rabbit hoodie. I hope they actually do something with her character one day cuz her aesthetic and especially her power set have a lot of potential

It is normal for chaps not to cover the behind, we shouldn't have to specify that. Chaps are not a type of trousers, they are to protect your trousers while you are riding. They don't cover the behind, because the behind is on the saddle and not exposed. If the behind is covered, then they stop being chaps and become leather pants.

Issue 2 definitely makes the mini feel like a vehicle to make Punchline more of a thing, rather than a Sirens reunion, which sucks. There was a lot in this issue (as you said) that you have to suspend your disbelief for, too much for me. Why is Catwoman suddenly "the tech guy"? Why would Harley Quinn be even mock jealous of a forehead kiss? How is Poison Ivy not immune to the gas Punchline used? Why do the Sirens even care about White Rabbit to begin with? Its just such a stretch, and all of that is easier to get distracted by when there is such a downturn in quality of the art. The artist for Issue 2 seems to have drawn all of the bodies and then drawn the faces in later, making it feel like they are LEGO people that you can just swap out their faces. I assume Ivy was researching XO Punch because of the mind control stuff (since that is kind of her thing outside of plants) and might be worried that Punchline is using and abusing some kind of hallucinogenic plants, but none of that is even alluded to and we're halfway through the mini already. All in all, if this was just DC's way of trying to build Punchline up, I don't think it will work, because it's doing it at the cost of three of their most beloved female characters looking like morons.

@@seeleunit2000 Well, officially (whatever that means these days at DC) Harley and Ivy are basicly the same age according to Paul Dini's notes on Harley. Based on Harley being a psychiatrist and looking at the average time someone needs to study and stuff to become one we can assume that, if she started college at 18, the youngest she could be is 29 but she's most likely almost in her mid-30s. But approaching things like that logically and with regard to canon and continuity is a fools errand because Batman should be in his early 40s by now and the Joker almost 60 and that's clearly not what DC intendet.

Bruce is smiling because he knows about Alfred’s secret deviant art account… Once you seen his “Girls with Shotguns” folder, you can’t un-see it lol

If that's the halfway point I don't think the pacing is right at all for a 4 issue mini series. I think #1 should've had all the exposition stuff and ended with them starting to go after Punchline while #2 should've started with them getting captured. That way there would've been more room for the main part of the story. Or just make it 5 issues. It also kinda seems like the comic really wants to keep you guessing and wondering what'll happen next but it's just so flat. Comparing that to the OG sirens title I actually was wondering what the Joker was up to and why he suddendly cared so much about getting Harley back only to be blindsided by Gaggy. That was actually solid. Here it ultimately boils down to a variation of villain poisons the water supply but with energy drinks. Also kinda reminds me of the zombie game Sunset Overdrive.

You basically described my review style near the end, finding the good and parts of a story apart from my overall enjoyment. Bad stories can get something right and good stories may not get everything right. Nothing's perfect, and sometimes you can not be into a "good" story of actually enjoy a "bad story" for various reasons. It's why MST3K exists.

I kind of love how much of a millennial Punchline is. She's all about the hustle, and hope she makes to be a Big Bad in some future event comic.

Anybody interested in PUNCHLINE’s comic book reading history (she was introduced in 2020) here it is: 1) Batman (Rebirth) issue 89-100…. She’s introduced in issue 89 2) Punchline: The Trial of Alexis Kate … this is a compilation of a one-shot (Punchline #1), JOKER 1-15, and some OTHER stuff … Punchline #1 gives us HER ORIGIN 3) and … obviously … Gotham City Sirens issues 1-4 (2024) 😀

I wonder if Punchline is mixed raced? 🤔 I know that I've heard that's she's East Asian, but she also has blue eyes 👀. So, I guess one parent is Europe and the other is East Asia, unless someone has more information on the matter?😅

The full name "Alexis Kaye" implies whichever parent she got her surname from (usually the dad) would be the European-descent one, for what that hint's worth.

I think that was more of an assumption by readers when she was first introduced because the artist back then drew her eyes noticeably narrower than the other characters. Not sure why that was tho,

After the first issue, I was all set to trade buy this book when it was released. But the change in art for this issue has been a total deal-breaker. It's not just a matter of not being a fan of this issue's art style. But with a mini series (especially one that's only four issues ), having one consistent artist feels like it should be a given.

The "wh*re" line does feel a touch weird. I can see Harley saying it, but not to Poison Ivy (based on how I view their relationship). It is commonly said in my friend group as a term of endearment.
