The first time I read The Killing Joke, it put me in a weird headspace. I still enjoyed though, one of the top-tier Batman stories. That and The Long Halloween are two of my favourites. I need to re-read Long Halloween it has been years since I last read it.

@CarbonScoring

Күн бұрын

Both excellent stories - top 5 bat books!

I like the variety of characters, both well-known and unsung fan-favorites, there are in this collection! The Mr. Freeze is a great combo of realism and Mike Mignola's art (originated for the Batman Animated Series version). In regards to that Batman with the crazy-looking cape, that head-sculpt seems like a very Alex Ross-ian design. You may or may not know these details on the characters, but for the uninitiated, the modern version of Huntress is Helena Bertinelli, the daughter of a Mafia boss. Her immediate family was killed as a result of a twisted-"Romeo & Juliet"-type romance gone wrong when her mother had an affair with the son and heir of a rival gangster. The son put a hit out on the family, but asked for his lover to be spared; however in a twist that can only come from literary fiction, the assassin mixes Helena up with her mother and kills the mother instead, leaving Helena alive to enact vengeance against all mobsters. While sanctioned by the Dark Knight, unlike Batman she uses lethal methods (similar to Azrael) to subdue her targets, usually with wrist-mounted crossbow ammo or other projectiles. As for Batwoman, other than the orientation to which you alluded, the only other things I know about her are that she's Bruce Wayne's (distant or otherwise?) cousin and she has a background in military training.

Dude! Strong work - thanks for bringing more life and knowledge to this video!

Thanks to anyone putting up with my comments. About 5 years ago I bought my first action figure off of e Bay. It was a Batman of Zur en Aar with Batmite. I also got a chrome New 52 Batman and an Ed McGuiness Batwoman in that order. Since then I've nosedived straight down the proverbial rabbit hole. Marvel Legends sucked me in, but Mattel DC Multiverse disappointed me and I began looking for better looking versions of the characters I wanted on my shelf. While I enjoy several different styles and brands of action figures, DC Direct is hands down my favorite. This video, which I interpreted as a love letter to the line, was exciting and satisfying to me at the same time. I really couldn't help myself with the commenting. I hope my insights were at least helpful to some. I'm proud to say I was at about 75% on ownership of what was shown. I'm subscribing as soon as I'm done running my mouth again. I hope to find more videos like this.
