Oh no! The Joker stole Rip Hunters big chalkboard. How will he write cryptic clues to future events now?

[zapbiffpow]

I miss that chalkboard. So much.

[skemono]

Good lord that's a lot of crossovers.

I actually like this Joker plot, which is refreshing. It's fairly reasonable, as long as he can actually manipulate Kid Flash into going into the exact spot where his toxin dust is (and there are probably a lot of ways to do that), and seems pretty Joker-ish. Although I'm not sure how this is supposed to tie into the theme of making Batman realize that Red Robin was making him weak, but since the comics are ignoring that, I guess I can too.

Also, I love afro Joker in the top left of the two-page spread. Guy needs to show up more.

I think what I really like about this is the clever way that Joker/the writers have found a way to keep all the super-powered characters around Jason and Tim busy while the former sidekicks are being played with by our Clown Prince here.

[silverhammerman]

I like that Joker took Tim's awful feather cape and now Tim has to wear a non-terrible cape.

[zechs80]

Even the Joker realizes how badly Tim looks in the feathers and is so much better in a cape.

[maxisanacorn]

Will Tim no longer have the wings anymore? Subtle in comic costume swap?

[darkknightjrk]

I doubt it--Booth's leaving the book after the Death of the Family tie-in, and he was the one who was initially against it.

[darkknightjrk]

A few comments and no one's mentioned the tweaked Starfire costume? For shame, S_D. :P

[katya]

I did not even notice, but that IS nice.

[shadowpsykie]

Hmmm I agree... that is a nice look.

[drmcninja]

I was just coming down to ask about it! I don't follow RH at all, is this the first time it's appeared? Because I actually like it.

[darkknightjrk]

Yes, and I'm pretty sure it was a mess-up on Booth's part. For the past few issues of Red Hood she's been wearing this Mass Effect-lite uniform as she was commanding her starship (which really only looked good when Rocafort drew it) and in the last issue of RH, #15, she was back to her regular costume.

Honestly, because of her personality and where she was inspired from, putting more clothes on Starfire feels to me like putting more clothes on Dejah Thoris, or Conan without a shirt off. It takes away some of her iconic look and just looks...weird. But, YMMV.

[star_of_airdrie]

when she's on Earth, she's in costume, on the ship, covered up - guess to recharge doing the solar powered thing. I like the tweak - and the art on her so much better than her currently on RHATO

Oh wow...

[doodleboy]

Never was a fan of Brett Booth's art, but he improved quite a bit since the first issue.

[espanolbot]

How is Roy keeping his balance? He looks like he should tip over backwards because his centre of gravity is all screwed up.

[raspberryrain]

A very, very heavy bow?

[bamf2me]

Every time I see Roy in costume with the trucker hat on I get sad. So very very sad. Why has Kory not burned that stupid thing yet?

[akodo_rokku]

I assume it amuses her. He's like her dancing monkey!

[darkknightjrk]

She has said similar things in the past. It seems like her relationship with both of them is like, "They're annoying, silly little braggarts and scoundrels, but they're MY annoying, silly little braggarts and scoundrels."

[his_spiffynesss]

And Kori is wearing leg warmers, lets just say neither of them have any good fashion sense.

[star_of_airdrie]

nope, them's her boots...

[salad_barbarian]

They have a deal. He wears that hat and she'll talk like she does in the cartoon. So far the cartoon speak has been off-panel.

[zapbiffpow]

One of the best Joker attacks so far.

I bet Joker's gonna make Jason and Tim fight to the death, or something. Two Robins with one crazy, crazy stone.

[icon_uk]

"You know the field of screams, right? 'If you kidnap him, they will come'"

I've been saying that for YEARS! ;)

[arilou_skiff]

At first I read that as "Red Head and the Outlaws".

[mrosa]

Was I the only one who had to look up 'agita' in the dictionary? Lovely word.

Mod Note

[icon_uk]

Hate to have to ask, but is that a double page spread you've got there as your third scan?

The proportions suggest it might be, and if it is, that makes five pages, and our limit for a new comic is four. If it isn't, that's fine.

Re: Mod Note

[superfangirl1]

It's not a double page promise. It just got scan wrong and was made somehow to big. :)

[mullon]

Bunker is way too happy for a guy whose head is about to be snapped off.
