I think this mini was where Ra's learnt that the Joker is in some sick way Batmans true equal.

I've never been sure, is there really an advantage to being an unpredictable chess player versus a seasoned player?

i hate the way fictional chess games are portrayed, and i disbelieve that the Joker could beat Ra's.

What's up with Ra's's...er...Mr. Ghul's face in that last panel? Looks like he has a tumor hanging on his cheek. Or is it just swollen from a fight?

And this just reminded me of ANOTHER OPM:

Joker vs. Impulse in World Without Adults (I can't remember if that's the title; it was a prelude to Young Justice).

Hang on a second, how do you remove your king from check and mate the other side by just moving your bishop?

This is an interesting scene, because Ras does not normally socialize with the Gotham crowd. If we didn't already know that Joker was the big boogeyman of them all, this would prove it - he may technically be just an insane clown, but an immortal world conqueror respects him enough to associate with him.
