Plot twist. Gaggy made all the Jokers and then faked his death, and is now planning his final masterstroke to kill Batman.

Why were there 3 Jokers? The answer is simple. It is because DC cannot go a year without shoving more Joker down the throats of fans and reminding them why he is "the greatest supervillain in the history of comics."

Maybe the real reason behind The Three Jokers is the friends we made along the way.

The problem is everything Johns had planned for Rebirth was delayed and I don’t think Doomsday Clock and Three Jokers ended up being about what they were supposed to be about. Pretty sure he was forced to change a lot. Three Jokers for example was originally in continuity but was then published out of continuity.

F for Gaggy, he's the reason for this story to be created

In my opinion, Three Joker should have been written before Doomsday Clock and serve as a Prequel to it. With one Joker from Pre Crisis, one from Post Crisis and the other from New 52. As a way to combat Mahattan, the Metaverse is allowing Jokers from different timelines to show up. And one of them knows that there is something wrong. In the end only the New 52 Joker survives and Batman is kinda aware about the Multiverse has being changed by something.

It is a very very late comment but; Great video, great review! I think sane and serious DC fans (not immature fanboys and fangirls) should write comic book runs. :) Or DC writers should listen to them. Geoff Johns put forward kinda interesting but very unnecessary things about Batman and Wonder Woman at the end of the Darkseid War (But I think it was a pretty good event in general). Three Jokers sounded kinda interesting for me but at the same time I asked the same question to myself: Why? Just one Joker was and still is absolutely enough for DC Multiverse. Making everything tangled and stupid does not mean writing a good story. As for WW, Johns gave her a twin brother which sounded interesting and OK but I again asked to myself, Why? She did not need a bro. She just needed more complex and dense stories and more compatitive and legendary villians. And Johns behaved WW worse than he behaved Batman. Because he did not handle WW's bro Jason and Grail's story after The Darkseid War. He abandoned his own children, I mean. Thus, James Robinson came and ruined everything. He made Jason a dumb, antipathic and poor character and wasted the potential of Grail.

He’s back !!! Bless your soul for you have brought good content when we needed it most

They better bring back Gaggy. He’s the fourth joker.

I think one thing that defined the 2010s in Comics is Geoff Johns' having overextended himself. - Trinity War goes into Darkseid War for a story arc that goes on for over two years. - Fights to make Cyborg a founding member of the Justice League in the New 52. Reportedly doesn't want anyone else writing a Cyborg series because he wants to do it himself. When Cyborg's book finally happens it wasn't by Johns and was too little too late. - While the Batman/Flash "The Button" is pretty good, does well, and has readers looking forward to the big DC Universe-changing event, Doomsday Clock itself takes almost 3 years to get out, so it goes from being a DCU-changing event to an alternate reality story that isn't even any good. - After teasing Three Jokers in the Darkseid War, Johns takes several years to get to it. If it was to take place in continuity it doesn't now and the story seems academic what with the big revelation at the end.

Was does no one ever seem to think that 2 of the other Jokers come from parallel realities ?🤨Nice way to explain it, it would also help Batman's case as to why his detective skills were deterred from the secret a bit.

I think you were on to something with your explanation involving the Joker evolving throughout the years. To continue with what you said about Grant Morrison proving that the Joker could still be one person because of his innate ability (or curse) which results from his mental disease to warp his personalities in order to work with the intense absorption of whatever setting he is in, I think it implies that Morrison is stating that the Joker is a result of whatever setting he is in, but not just physical setting, like the many times he was in Arkham Asylum or in the few times he was supposedly in the Batcave, but also within the era he is being portrayed. It thus allows his true characteristics to be "multiple choice." What are the choices, you ask? a) criminal b) clown c) comedian Now, obviously Morrison is trying to make a fourth option d) all of the above and make this the official answer, but Geoff Johns wanted to say that the answer d) was irrelevant, because the Joker would just keep evolving using past iterations, to the point where "all the above" wouldn't make any chronological sense, because perhaps a century from now you could get answers which are unseen iterations of the Joker like e) dancer f) fisherman g) software engineer Even if you literally try to kill the past iterations within the comics, they are still immortalized, as Johns tells us when it is told that a new Joker would be created if one of them died. Johns was telling us that the Joker will evolve past the point where even a great writer like Morrison could make the master plot-hole cover up he did, and even past the point where some a new storyline like New 52 would take too long to make to cover all the tracks The following is honestly just my head cannon: I think Johns was trying to point out that that purpose of the Joker should be that he is just a maniacal arch-enemy to Batman, and that should be it - no unnecessary consideration for continuity. Johns was frustrated with New 52 having to be made just to fix continuity errors because comic fans love pointing out fallacies. So he took Morrison's sublime message and made it very literal by breaking the Joker down into three components of his character. It was indeed a near random number - but it wasn't insignificant. He wanted to make a rather meta commentary on how different takes on the Joker over the years influence future iterations, and evolve his legacy, kind of like you pointed out yourself. To parrot what you said, the Joker started as a criminal, but as the time setting around him changed, he evolved into something more relevant or just more interesting, and because many people assert that when the Joker shot Barbara or when the Joker killed Jason that it changed the legacy of the Joker forever, those iterations of the Joker were immortalized. There are three Jokers because each Joker was supposed to represent important iterations of the Joker, and the reason they aren't explicitly identified is because Johns doesn't want to separate them, but combine them: a task he believes is still ongoing. It is ongoing so long as readers subconsciously view these iterations of Joker as separate. He is telling us readers that even if he didn't explicitly separate the Jokers (again, how he divides the Joker is unimportant - three Jokers or fifty Jokers, it's all the same) then we still would've seen them as separate and if Johns tried to combine them for the ultimate take on the Joker we wouldn't be able to palate the new iteration, not because the combined personalities are jarring, but because both the readers and the writers would obsess over our struggle to feign a continuity which allows the Killing Joke and the Death of the Family to be a part of the same canon timeline. The quest of the three Jokers to create the perfect Joker is the reflection of the quest which all comic writers undertake. They want to create the perfect Joker, but they have to follow the rules being enforced by Jokers of the past, and Johns is just venting his frustration with these limits, because no matter how hard he tries to meld these Jokers together, choosing to kill certain aspects of the Joker (which he may find outdated, but we may not) he can never truly create his perfect Joker without creating serious unrest in the community. Okay, let's stop the head canon and get real for a second. Am I creating this elaborate explanation to try and convince myself that the unexplained elements of the Three Jokers were not mistakes of bad writing and were completely intentional? Maybe. Maybe I'm selling myself a dream, but at the end of the day, isn't that what comics do? Sell us dreams? I appreciate that you actually read a youtube comment this long lol :)

damn your vids are way too hilarious! i'm loving it! i'm entertained and is informed if whether or not i should read this🤣

Also as for 3 jokers I feel like this story was supposed to be connected to dc rebirth which it was hinted within both darkside war and dc rebirth special but the second Geoff Johns left his position Dan didio came in and messed everything up badly, and now we don’t know if even 3 jokers is actually connected to anything within the dc universe and that’s just sad because 3 jokers had so much potential to be amazing but they dropped the ball on this one and that’s not fun that’s sad and depressing.

The return of the king

Hey, so regarding the story I didn't like it, and as for Jason, so much of his 'growth' under RHATO has been pretty bad. They simplified him and under Winnick, pre 52 was interesting and was OOC at times but when done well is good and I felt like they were making him like UTRH self in #1 but then just made him the Red Simp and too simple, no nuance. Also, what would you have done btw? I had a pitch that Joker is getting old and dying, this new Joker is in order to continue his legacy, the three being parts of him coming out due to the super sane idea and he kidnaps Jason in an attempt to tuen him since he was Bruce 'greatest failure', IDK maybe it could have worked.

Well you see, The Joker is Popular and why just have 1 Joker when you can have 3 of them and have a Medicore story

DC’s cope in opposition of Grant Morrison’s explanation is hilarious.

The only time the Joker making another Joker made sense to me was in Batman Beyond Return of the Joker in which him making Tim Drake into a little Joker was done to hurt Batman and as a plan to continue his legacy because he would eventually die. This reminds me of Batman Arkham Knight where the Titan infected Joker blood turns people who have been injected with it into him. WHAT?! The Joker's entire personality can be recreated using a botched blood transfusion? And now we have this story where he repeats the same process that turned him into the Joker on other people. Gee that kind of undermines the whole one bad day thing if it's the chemicals, heck that even undermines the concept of the Joker if he can just be duplicated that easily. You bring up a good point, why would he want to make more Jokers? He's too vain to do something like that. He is in no concern of his legacy being upheld after his death because he's still in his prime and none of these people except for Joe were people close to Batman.

Does this mean Harley was cheating on all three jokers with out knowing or she was just dating one?

I liked it though..... I wish it explored it's ideas a little more.... But it was enjoyable as a stand alone Story

Baggy showed up in Gotham City Sirens, jealous of Harley

Cause it's a sweet ass twist and an ORIGINAL idea for once. THATS why

You removed the Inc. from your channel's name :0 Another great video btw

The 3 jokers in the story are actually meta and want to drive us the readers insane from trying to figure out why there’s 3 of them to hopefully make more jokers.

The whole thing doesn't make sense. He asks what the Joker's name/identity really is. Chair says there are three. 3 Jokers ends with Batman revealing that he knew Joker's identity all along. So....the whole thing is just pointless.

Batman was testing the Mobius Chair by asking what is Joker's real name and when the chair said there were 3 that's when Bruce was shook because he only knew that they were jus one. The "better joker" line means the Joker wanting to create someone able to make Batman break his moral code. The whole comic jus leaves more questions than answers because that's what it was intended for. The Joker isn't jus a person but an idea and this comic proves it by having multiple literal jokers lol.

Agreed, the whole thing tried to bring mystery back to the Joker but instead it trivialised the character putting forward the stupid idea that anyone can be the Joker. If that where true then anyone can be Batman, of cause they’d never change Bruce Wayne because then the audience would have to reinvest in a new character and that’s to risky. I think that’s why Jokers back story was made vague because they didn’t want to introduce a new character that would then need to be explained and then potentially hated by the audience, so basically there was no need for this comic to exist. Bruce Wayne is still Batman and Arthur Fleck is still Joker.

Every word you said is exactly what I am still thinking after this story. This story could have been done absolutely fine with just 1 Joker, hell it would've made more sense. I mean the story ks cool and all, but i cannot phathom why Johns would introduce such a concept if he didn't intend to explain it ?

Can you do a episode about batman reborn?

Okay, I’ll be totally honest, I had no clue what to expect in a “Three Jokers” story. I mostly just imagined (after New 52 Joker) a disturbing, dark and chilling story explaining the Three Jokers as they mentally torture Batman through another one of their twisted schemes. The main problem is that when you tell the audience there are 3 Jokers, people spend more time asking “How are there 3 Jokers?” then actually thinking what this story would be. Hell, I only really gathered an idea after issue 2 because it seemed issue 1 and 2 weren’t really explaining much. My main theory after issue 2 would be Jason would completely snap after the torture he went through in issue 2 and the way Batman just seemingly neglects him all the time. I thought that by the end of issue 3, Jason would snap and kill either the remaining Jokers, Batman, Batgirl or all of them and become the Joker. The more I think about it, it might make more sense for Jason to just kill the last 2 Jokers and then become the Joker but at the time (and still do) I thought this took place in a different universe. I enjoyed what we got but can’t help but feel disappointed that they literally had *THREE JOKERS* and did nothing, just your average TP comic you’ll find anywhere. On another note, glad you’re back!

I think it was to put things back to the status quo

Merchandising.

It could've been so good. Alas Wasted Potential. Also kind of weird Jason and Barbara having a moment here since Jason was involved with Artemis.

11:25 i love Jason

Yeah, DC really dropped the ball. From what i understand is that Johns was supposed to be the guy who would helm the whole Rebirth-reboot, but then he got pulled to the DC movies and TV-shows, so DC-comics gave the Rebirth-plan to Scott Snyder after the succes of Metal. Johns probably still wanted to make Doomsday en Three Jokers, with soms major DC-universe-shaping things in it. But DC probably said “nah, my dude, that’s Snyders job now. We’ll put Black Label label on it and view it as an Elseworlds kinda thing”...

Great video but i wish you posted more :/

Do the arkham asalym!

you know, this may be petty but this whole comic all I kept thinking was why is it that people seem to always forget that the killing joke happened BEFORE death in the family? like it happened in the same year, very close to eachother to the point that in death in the family someone even says soemthing along the lines of the last time the joker was free he crippled Barbara and all. If they were going in order and all with the clown being all the silver age stuff then he would have to have done that too, its either that or the comedian did the death in the family thing too rigth? I dont know, it kept bugging me the entire timeXD but then again, as Sasha from casually comics wisely said, my reaction to this comic was just "that was definetly a thing that I read" XD
