Anyone else feel kinda bored about absolute batman jonkler?
>>151740382>Anyone else feel kinda bored about absolute batmanabsolutely
i dunno he just seems like another bane type of enemy going purely on the "sheer brutality" factor to be menacingok he harvests new borns for stemcells or some shit to keep him basically immortal from aging, where's the joke? where's the funny!
>>151740391i miss when jonkler was funny... heh even in tdk he was kinda funny you know
I got bored of Absolute in general some time ago. They aren't interested in exploring the interesting aspects of the stories they made. Seems like they only want to focus on the shittier parts of the stories and make a tasteless mess of slop.
>>151740382I am just hoping Jonkler isn't literally a demon and it's all metaphorical.
>>151740400>harvey harvey harvey dent- oh scuse me i wanna drive
>>151740424sorry to burst your hopes anon but nope, jonkler is indeed just another generic monster, hes basically just a weird adaptation of dracula they even have him with his "human" form and "true" form like a fucking vampire, this shit is so lame
>>151740550What would be better, then? A corrupt businessman? What would have been different, cool?
>>151740550I hate this.>>151740606>What would be better, then? A corrupt businessman?Unironically a restrained white collar criminal that has a sadistic and twisted sense of humour would have been miles better.
>>151740606anything besides another grotesque monster enemy, imagine if the joker is an actual nobody in this world because his ability is that once people turn away from him they instantly forget every interaction with him for the past hour causing the joker to be this mystery figure and he does heinous shit for the most retarded punchlines just because that would have been way better than just another monster enemy, it would have made for a much more interesting story and highlight Batman's detective side toobut right now? this weird fusion of dracula and joker is just.. zzzzzzzzz
>>151740550Bro thinks it's genocyber.
>>151740606a trillionaire comedian who runs an everything comedy related conglomerate
>>151740382I'm bored of Joker period. I'd much prefer 60s Adam West Joker than another edgy serial killer Joker.
>>151740424I would've preferred ambiguity, personally.Never specify anything directly but make it seem that Joker may not be completely human without making blatant.I guess that would be too subtle for Snyder though.
>>151740919He's been wanting to do actual demon Joker for life a decade. Not surprising he jumped at the chance here.
>>151740646basically forget me not? but only erases 1hour?that would be pretty interesting power for joker to have, he would do unspeakable things with that
>>151740382so he's just gonna be eating people and babies, then why the fuck is he called joker? where's the joke??
>>151741512That people still pay real money for comic books, I guess
>>151740382I'll never understand the boner that some writers have for him, he's just a clown that haven't been funny or scary for decades
>>151741699Coulrophobia and "We Live In A Society" have become such intense memes, not to mention how Joker has basically had the most success in terms of fucking with Batman according to storylines past. Every writer wants to one-up their predecessors in some way, so naturally they want their Joker to one-up the previous ones.
Ngl, I am enjoying seeing people finally taking their hype blinders off and admitting there is nothing amazing about this comic. It’s flashy, wowie wow wow wow. So what, people get bored with that after a while, especially when you mixed in all this baseless hype
>>151741725>Absolute batman>Monster enemy>Monster enemy>Grotesque monster enemy>White supremacist? For some reasonWow what an imaginative comic, seriously joker was their chance to do something different like what anon>>151740646 said
They literally turned Joker into Clown/Violator. Yeah it's boring.
>>151740382so he's just fucking Stephen king's IT???
>>151740382Of course. As predicted, he's a total anticlimax after Bane. Part of that is that Bane was unexpectedly good and fun and the other part is that jonkler is just kinda underwhelming on his own for what is meant to be THE Batman villain.
>>151740382Absolute Joker should be shapeshifter, not another grotesque muscle freak (if in this universe everyone mutant then catwoman should be muscular sexy anthro cat or were-cat, but not just black girl).The Shapeshifter Joker makes more sense because it explains the mystery of his origin and makes him more dangerous since it is unknown what he (or she/it) looks like and where he (or she/it) might be.
>>151740382What part of this screams "joker" seriously?? He's just a generic monster who eats people... Like killer croc... Bruh
>>151740382>>151742171I forget how the sophisticated the adult superhero-comic reading audience is.
>>151740382>White Man . . . BAD!um kino much?!? how'd they come up with this?
>>151740382He was scarier in Absolute Evil
>>151742171You see white supremacist was a white monster because he drank white monster which is peddled by condiment king who is a metaphore for fast food industry
>>151740382I think he's neat
>>151740382With every other Absolute villain so far I get that it's the writers thinking, "ok let's take our current characters and pour on the edgy and grim like no tomorrow". Like it's their intention to make the Absolute universe one giant nightmare version of the normal DC universe but still recognisable as it's own thing.With Absolute Joker though it literally just feels like, "Hey guys, Pennywise from IT is pretty creepy, let's copy and paste him as Absolute Joker"
>>151743606none
>>151740400We all miss the real Joker.
>>151740382This is just ultimate Green Goblin all over again.
>>151744009So, pretty much the stupid Dark Multiverse shit, but Batkek isn't there.
