So there were lots of little things that were out of whack, like his arrogance, the totalitarianism, the brutality, etc. It was rather jarring, though, until I figured it out.Bryan Lnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-30937218383665167372011-04-18T14:00:21.819-05:002011-04-18T14:00:21.819-05:00Scipio> that's Barnacle MAN!

Especially the scene where Joker and Weeper are apparently crushed by the falling statue, and he does nothing. I kept expecting to learn that this was Owlman in diguise, or Batman was suffering from the effects of an alien gas, or something.TotalToyzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17458868361840649001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-49692069545010720952011-04-18T10:56:10.281-05:002011-04-18T10:56:10.281-05:00The Earth-2 Joker fought the Huntress during her p...The Earth-2 Joker fought the Huntress during her pre-Crisis bonus-story run in "Wonder Woman".
