Oh my!



Quick bit from an earlier issue on 'Why Talia's There'. Or something.




Okay, so following the trail, now Batman's in Switzerland!
(Four and a quarter pages from seventeen.)











They are rather focused on *ahem* comforting.









He might be glad for the break. Just maybe.



Talia's handy with firearms and knows the area. Then Bruce gets knocked out!

Meanwhile, in a related story, Catwoman and Robin got a lead back in Gotham and are heading to Hong Kong!



Way to ask the obvious, Dick.

Then they put on disguises! And get Shanghaied.





Oh noes!

Next issue:

Can't believe this isn't out as a trade.

Talking and comforting. "They talked for more than hour" uh huh.

Poor Bruce, he does take to the whip well doesn't he?

Aaaand the JL episode 'Comfort and Joy' will never be the same again.

And they were shanghaied? But weren't they supposed to go to Hongkong?

You know, I think I just made a very weak joke.

Serves me right for replying in S_D when I'm beer-filled.

Just goes to show--reading Bronze age crack and the ingestion toxicants, stimulants, and various chemicals should never go together.

Or should they?

And I think Grant Morrison is clearly evidence of this.

Grant Morrisons ingestion of drugs was probably in an effort to recapture the sheer mind-bending insanity reading Silver Age when stone cold sober achieved.

Loopy Brucie--that'll be a sight to see. They already did a loopy Superman in S/B--Bats should have one, too.

For some odd reason the writers have decided Bruce can't have any fun.

Clark on Krypton crack was one of the best issues I've ever read, I just love how he had the munchies and then asked Kara for more only to find that Bruce destroyed it by sending it to the sun "Stupid Batman"

That may be the reason why we never see a loopy Bruce - he's been drugged at various times with all sorts of exotic drugs and chemicals, including fear gas, Joker venom, all types of poisons, etc., etc. His immune system is likely a fearsome thing by now - regular old dopey-making stuff he can probably shrug off in seconds.

You know you don't see Batman or Wonder Woman in that episode.... wonder why.

I'm sorry, I can't get over the "even silent, she's good company." Silent is the only way she's good company. Shut up already you empty silk pantsuit!

Too true. Although the covers missing the groping-fan tentacles and maybe a katana or two...

(And the short answer is: Talia leaves the penthouse! Woo hoo!)

Hooray!

So was Bruce behind this whole plot all along -- i.e. so she could get her overstaying ass out of his penthouse?

And what happened to the chaise lounge? left curbside for Salvation Army?

Oooh the suspense is killing me :D

Bet Robin had a hand in it too! Now he gets their room back!

Wait, pain from injected cocaine? How does that work? Cocaine is a local anaesthetic, dentists inject it to cause numbness.

Well, a quick google got me this. He is planning on killing them with it, so an overdose seems likely, no?

Wouldn't heroin be a more stereotypical choice for an Asian setting?

(Double posting, sorry.)

So, The minor boss give Selena & Dick a stimulant - tea (yeah, Ok, a mild one), then there's a sleep causing drug slipped in there, and finish it off with cocaine, a stronger stimulant. Yikes!

He's going to pharamceutically confuse them to death? Now that's evil...

Just because he's an obese, giggling Asian drug lord with comedy moustache sitting on an oriental throne drinking tea whilst fawning over the white woman (and her... companion), doesn't mean he's a stereotype.

Oh.. wait...
