Arkhamcroft: Arkham and Ravencroft Asylums Are Merged!

[Derek Metaltron]

Basically Hugo Strange/Jeremiah Arkham and Ashley Kafla have the bright idea of pooling their resources together and merge Arkham and Ravencroft into one high tech facility in either Gotham, New York or elsewhere where the Batman and Spider-Man Rogues (the two greatest rogue galleries in fiction?) are now all under the same roof. Is it likely to do better with staff from both or make something much worse? And what would your favorite Batman Rogues/Spidey Rogues interactions be?

I definitely would love to see an encounter between Kraven and Bane for one thing. Doctor Octopus and Mister Freeze can compare notes. Harley Quinn and White Rabbit will become BFF's. Lizard and Man Bat strive to learn from the other's mistakes, whilst Hammerhead and Two Face just want to shoot each other...

The Arkham staff can't keep someone like Riddler or Scarecrow in.

What the hell would they do with Carnage?

One would assume if the Ravencroft Staff are around they'll have an easier time. Though the logical solution is trying to separate Cletus and the symbiote from each other, I guess? (Which then pops onto someone like Joker and shit hits the fan big time).

And how do you separate them in the first place? For a long time in the 90s, it was said that the Carnage symbiote was literally fused with his bloodstream, and even when it separated from him, it would ultimately return because Cletus was its first and most favored host. Even if it bonded with the Joker, it would ultimately reject him the same as it did every other host except Cletus, just because, "You aren't him."

That's a fair point, Cletus and Carnage have more of a true bond than Eddie and Venom do given how it was so rejected by Peter, hence why the Venom symbiote was comfortable approaching others like Gargan. Still wouldn't deny the fact that a Joker Carnage would be pretty terrifying mind.

Indeed, and considering that the Joker, every time he's gained some kind of superhuman or supernatural or even cosmic power, has dramatically increased his already-prodigious body count, a Joker-Carnage would be truly fearsome. Cletus's problem is that he's content to just kill people and kill them as messily as possible, while Joker is theatrically creative in how he does it, and both of them are trying to prove the point that life is chaos and values and morals are empty, cheap things people use to try to assert control over that chaos. Hmm, come to think of it, it'd almost be like the Spider-Man/Batman crossover from the 90s where they teamed up to fight the Joker and Carnage, only cutting out the middleman of Cletus and having Joker and the symbiote fuse.

I wonder if the symbiote will be able to bond with him or will he just jokerize it rather than bond with it thus creating a new murderous captain clown henchman after all he has significant chemical knowledge which he used to jokerize everyone in last laugh.
