Out of all the Robins, Jason Todd is my favourite

Seems very Arthur vs. Mordred here. And I'm really glad to see Catwoman's status as a villain addressed here.

Joker is acting like these villains still don't have those exact same gimmicks. Granted, I don't remember the last time Penguin actually did something, but still.
"Catwoman never laughed?" Well, I dunno, I think if we take some of King's flashbacks into account she still seemed to enjoy herself in the "old villain days." It's not like Two-Face or Freeze laugh that much either but you don't see Joker making a big hullabaloo about it.

Joker looks very nostalgic, this wedding has affected him a lot it seems. Janin’s action scene is better accomplished than in the last issue

Personally...I just want to see Selina put him in full-body traction. At this stage he's a fekkin' annoyance. I've had enough of him and I wish to see him gone for a very long time...I know I know...flying pigs and all that.

I'll admit, I'm kind of tired of modern Joker. Originally Posted by Devaishwarya

I'm surprised that as a ex-CIA operative that King can't count how many bullets are in a Magnum.

It is possible that the script does not specify the gun used. Originally Posted by Pete26

Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

I want to see this too. Originally Posted by Devaishwarya

It's also possible Joker's pulling more than one gun, dropping a spent one, and getting another. Originally Posted by Pohzee

Or its possible whoever did the lettering for this issue was asleep at the wheel with all the BANG BANG BANGS........
And the current design of the Joker.. blegh.. Throw a Neil Adam's Joker in his place and that would be interesting.

King wasn't a CIA Operative he was an Operations Officer that's more HR role so it's possible he has no knowledge of Firearms. Originally Posted by Pete26
