I forget. If it was you, though, these pages might give some credit toward that theory.<BR/><BR/>It's probably nothing, but early we have the panel of Batman against the white-black checkered flooring, the colors of which would correspond with the two Ace cards (Clubs, Spades) that Joker draws. Despite being Ace cards, though, they of course only feature the A. Furthermore, on the third page, there are three panels where the word bubbles are directed toward the card (while likely meant to be read as going to Joker's mouth, they DO go to the card).<BR/><BR/>Speaking of which, Joker couldn't talk too well in the prose. Are we to assume that he can talk fine now? He does deliver the "you're dead" bit at the end with movements. Are the words necessarily Joker, or something else?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22842788.post-72236466239629924182008-05-01T14:11:00.000-04:002008-05-01T14:11:00.000-04:00Now that I've read it I love that Batman sequence,...Now that I've read it I love that Batman sequence, with the symmetry, the numbers (1st has 2 big panels with 4 inset, then 8 on the next and 16 - doubling towards infinity, like this'll go on forever.)Marc Caputohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03293532769174212726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22842788.post-4545215711755944092008-05-01T14:10:00.000-04:002008-05-01T14:10:00.000-04:00It'll probably be in the tpb - you know, "Batman x...It'll probably be in the tpb - you know, "Batman xxx - yyy with 3 pages from DC Universe 0"Marc Caputohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03293532769174212726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22842788.post-80094592574532464222008-05-01T10:34:00.000-04:002008-05-01T10:34:00.000-04:00I believe that's Tony Daniel on art.

What I wonder is whether or not this sequence will show up in an issue of <I>Batman</I>--probably not, but it would be a shame if it didn't just for those readers who didn't pick up this comic.Chad Nevetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11785622045733202883noreply@blogger.com
