>Gain time travel powers>Immediately scribble clock hands on your glasses and fistfight BatmanIs there something in Gotham's water?
>>216973977It's built over a portal to hell.
>>216973977he never had time travel powers
>>216974622Unironically, this.
>>216973977Did he have time travel powers? It's been a while since I've seen the Animated Series, but I thought he was just a guy whose only power was being really anal about being on time and just wanted to fuck over the mayor.
>Im going to CLOCK batman!>Your TIME is up!
>>216974768I didn't realize Clock King was in the 70s Batman show. Louie The Lilac. Bookworm. Egghead. What happened to them?
>>216974665>>216974768if you think about it we all have time travel powers
>>216974768you are correct. In his second ep, he got a device that made him movie faster than time, but he never had time travel powers. OP is just dumping an old meme he saw online
>>216973977>Is there something in Gotham's water?Honestly yes. But Clock King really got a good facelift in TAS. Just a grumpy lawyer who thinks his friend sabotaged him. He was pretty based in JLU when he coordinated the Suicide Squad.
>>216974855Kinda happy to hear that. I remembered him being relatively grounded, like no super powers and having a life outside of "kill Batman.">>216974832It is kind of a trip how many villains they crammed in there and who they got to play them. Eli Wallach was Mr. Freeze once.I think it's funny that Roddy McDowell played Bookworm then voiced The Mad Hatter.
>>216974622>>216974668Really? Proof?
>>216974855Some guy invented a time speed up box or something and was going to use it to make nuclear waste inert. But it was also a pretty good weapon when used incorrectly. So of course Clock King heard 'time' and got rock hard.
>>216975002Yeah, sure. 70s Batman was a cameo driven show.But what I wonder, how come characters like King Tut or Falseface didn't make it into Batman lore proper. Not in the cartoon. Not in the comics.
>>216974665>>216974768He had time travel powers in his S3 appearance
>>216975187>cameo driven showProbably for just that reason.Louie the Lilac was just "Milton Berle but mobster," and False Face was just another excuse for a cliffhanger.It feels like there was more to King Tut and Egghead, but maybe that was really just Victor Bouno and Vincent Price memorably hamming it up.
>>216975221no, he didn't. I already said he got a device that made him movie faster than time, but he never had time travel powers.
>>216975257>>216974832The egg gimmick was so fucking stupid that it felt like an actual self-aware challenge to make the dumbest one-off villain possible
Whats the corniest batman villain?
>>216975340Unironically Firefly. Condiment man at least made me laugh.
>>216975339The entire show feels like a self-aware challenge in stupid sometimes.I will give Egghead some credit, since, as a villain, he has built in puns, gimmicky things to steal that aren't entirely made up, like Faberge eggs, and has the physical deformity of an egg shaped head (and possibly an egg shaped penis).
>>216975291Technically you could call that time travel. If you're moving faster than air, you're travelling in space. So if you're moving faster than time, you're travelling in time.
>>216975340This guy was always meant to be a joke in his episode and I hate how casuals always bring him up without context.
