Seriously, why are people taking this "reveal" at face value? The explanation is coming from a crazy person. It's a trick, a joke, a part of a plot to continue to push Batman off his game. It's not something that will just be retconned later, it'll be revealed to be not actually the case by the end of this very arc.
 
The Joker being immortal is cool but c'mon it could easily be a fake-out the Joker LIVES on torturing Batman mentally could just be another way to get at his psyche. Can't wait to see Synder finish the arc tbh.

Question though, what's so wrong with making him an immortal? I'm sure they could branch it into something awesome.
 
People that keep telling me Snyder's run is really good are clearly just drooling over Capullo art and have switched all other faculties off.

I understand, yknow., Stegmans stint on Spider-Man put me into a joyous state also, but I didn't ignore it was still Slott's shit script seeping in and reminding me it was dumb shit all the time just well drawn.
 
The headline is all around the web. These aren't even scans, these are officialy released pics. If anything it's free publicity.
No excuse. Total dick move. I know how to avoid comic spoilers and you roll it in and put it in the OT TITLE!

There's a thousand different ways to create the read without doing that. How is it I can read in ComicGAF and not get spoiled? They use a freaking spoiler tag. Wow. What a novel concept!
 
this. For new comics we tend to use spoiler tags at least.

"Batman #38 Joker Spoiler Discussion (WTF was that)"

Perfectly acceptable. Not whatever this douche move was.

Yeah, how is it that we can talk about shit like normal people in the OT, yet it has to be some kind of shit show over here?

Snyder peaked early with Court of Owls, but I still mostly enjoy this run... his scripts are way too overwritten though, he (or an editor? do they even have those anymore) could very easily cut out swaths of paragraphs in basically every issue.
 
What the rationale on allowing stuff like this but banning people from posting scanned pages from new game magazines?
 
I miss when Paul Dini wrote the series :/
Or did he write 'Tec? Anyway, I miss when he wrote the chracter :/
 
Agreed that it's a dick move to post spoilers like this for a book that hasn't been out a full week even. Lots of people aren't caught up, especially with that snow storm hitting the east this week.

The fuck did I just read

He's not immortal. It's just that no one has the sense to fucking shoot him
Gordon shot him point blank an issue before this and he got right back up.

That said, anyone taking this at face value is being foolish. The rest of the issue is basically Batman refusing the believe any of it is true.

Well, are these scans or officially released pics? People are saying different things. Help me out here, I'm not a comics guy.
