I liked the part when Joker goes into the bushes and force-of-wills his way through undoing *_plastic surgery._*
Joker seems like the type of person who would pay the mana cost for that.
Well according to Grant Morrison Joker is supersane meaning he knows he's in a comic book so maybe he did some magic. That or he bit the bullet and pulled a handy knife out.
And it's still not the craziest thing to happen.
Yes it is
Kraven saved by writer caring about him being Russian. Only slightly less well known, Wolverine, saved by the writer caring about him being Canadian....and by slightly less I mean much more.
It’s funny to think about how originally Chris Claremont did not like Wolverine and wanted to kill him off early, tbh.
I remember when White Knight came out, I look at the shopkeeper and I ask, "Didn't they do that already?" I seriously thought this story was a fever dream I had in the graphic novel section of the library. Turns out they did do it!
Oh my god, that's what I was thinking about! I had total deja vu throughout this whole episode, but couldn't figure out why. Batman White Knight is totally just a modern version of this!
@@haasztamas And instead of Joker just living a normal life, he wants to make Gotham better by going straight to the problem: Batman.
@@fynnthefox9078 I still think the idea of Batman being the problem is really dumb. If it was anyone else doing it, it might have worked. With the Joker though? No.
I wish J.M. DeMatteis wrote more Batman stories. "Going Sane" is a true gem in an endless sea of Joker tales.
Need more killer moth and mad hatter story's. Seriously mad hatter a guy that kidnaps people that look like a woman he loves mimd controls them gives them fake memories. There is potential there. He probably has a low kill count because unlike joker he doesn't like mindless killing. Mr freeze is just trying to save his wife at any cost you could make stories out of them
Batman has no shortage of great villains that only need the right writer.
@@daraghokane4236 I psychological horror/thriller book involving a Mad Hatter similar to his characterisation in Morrisons Arkham Asylum would be great imo
@@kobi7955 Imagine if the original harly died but Hatter and craxy quilt kidnaped a new girl and inplanted fake memories into her. Have a story were hatter says this to harly and never reveal if hes joking or not
Joker changing his name...what's something not even Batman would guess. I've got it Joseph Kerr. Batman : "Am I a joke to you?"
13:48 At least "old cinema as villain's lair" is more believable than "the 200th condemned toy factory as villain's lair"
Re: Green Goblin on the Maximum Overdrive truck... The long answer: King was a comic fan and felt the Goblin's face would lend the murderous toy hauler a sinister visage.
The short answer: Cocaine.
Reminds me of my favorite lines from Batman '89: "Yeh wanna get sane!! Let's get sane!!". I'm pretty sure that's how the line went.
I'd like to think there's a real problem in Gotham with discrimination against circus performers because of Joker.
A very underrated story, I remember reading that in the local library when I was in the third grade.
6:04 I say it’s Comedian Joker.
Definitely the Comedian Joker
7:48 EVIL JOKER BE LIKE.. ALL IT TAKES IS ONE GOOD DAY 😄
Dematteis is hands down one of the most foundational writers in the world, while also the most unread by people and that is a shame.
Oh my god. In Kraven's Last Hunt, if Kraven had actually been using a real gun, and trying to kill Spider-man, maybe his spider sense would have prevented it from happening, and it's only because Kraven wasn't trying to kill him that he actually succeeded.
This story is actually in a list of stories that provides evidence for the joker being aware of the meta. He understands that Batman should always win, so when he thinks he kills Batman he’s like “oh shit, I was wrong”
I grew up reading spiderman, and I also remember reading this story when I was young. When I got engaged I proposed to my wife several times, and sometimes I still do it on our anniversaries and stuff... Are you telling me it was all my subconscious remembering old Dimatteis stories?!!! AAAAAAAAAARGHHHH!!!!
I love this story, thanks for covering it on Back Issues!
Edit: It's not an incredible story on paper, but the idea of Batman and Joker living a quiet, ordinary life that's destined to come crashing down is interesting to me. Especially the Joker, because he found someone that loves and has a lot in common with him.
Such an underrated story. JM Dematteis is one of my favorite writers. Wish he was on more things currently
26:35 28:14
I remember his fake name growing up. *Joseph Kerr* , really?!🤣
I'd immediately switch to Joseph Kerreth or Kimmer at the very least.
Do you think after years of waiting for her fiance to return, Rebecca finally makes the Joseph Kerr -> Joker connection and just feels really silly about all this
I love when this channel does books I haven’t heard of. It’s so interesting hearing how these stories came to be
DC's refusal to reprint Legends of the Dark Knight stories baffles my mind.
I love how salty Sal is towards Three Jokers. I relate hard
I had the exact same reaction as Sal to Maximum Overdrive. Lmao.
"KG Beast's Last Hunt"
This really just feels like just a classic Batman story sort of like BTAS, Demattais really is a legend
I've been looking forward to this one for a long time!
_Going Sane_ is my second favorite Joker story, behind _Laughing Fish_ (sorry _Killing Joke_ fans, but that's number 3).
I especially love the multi-panel closeup of his face while he struggles with sanity.
Great episode!
I like those, also emperor joker, and I think it's called the black glove story where you see some of joker's potential super sanity where he can almost see the future knowing the universe is a comic story :)
@@thewilhelmscream7912 I got a used copy of Emperor Joker for $2 but never got aroundto reading it. Maybe I'll read that next. Thanks for the recommendation!
Nice, your welcome!!!
Honestly stories were "Batman is just as insane as the Joker" are over done. It kind of feels like a breath of fresh air to hear about one that isn't heavily playing on that.
The more J.M DeMatteis Comic Pop does the more I want to read all his works.
YES, I was waiting for this one since the day you mentioned it in an older video. Besides this the only other one I’m waiting on is JLA:The Nail. I hope you cover that in the not too distant future
So glad you guys are covering more Legends of The Dark Knight, especially issues past 20. There are a whole lot of gems in the first 100 or so issues that people rarely cover but are some of the best Batman you could ask for. So many Vertigo creators make it such a mature book too at times, Jamie Delano and Chris Bachalo's issue is one of my favourites.
You don’t have a parade in the snow? The Christmas City of the North parade would disagree.
From the creators of "Spider-Man: Kraven's Last Hunt", we bring you "Batman: Joker's Last Laugh".
6:44 I mean, he kind of is a master of disguise. He once disguised himself as a normal person who campaigned for heroes to be outlawed, got a friend of the JLA to betray them, and compromised the safety of their hideout.
This is another sign that more of JM Dematteis' work needs to be collected into a trade or omnibus. Marvel and DC get on it!
Wow this was a classic back issues another one of sal's gems never knew that this story was kickstarted by kravens last hunt....really hilarious episode 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣loved how Ethan just couldn't fathom that joker is able to organize a parade 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I guess Ethan hasn’t seen the 1989 Batman film.
Thank you for shouldering the burden, Sal. You are a true hero.
I NEED to hear more of Sal's Doctor Evil PLEASE
Rebecca showed up again during the _Day of Judgment_ JLA tie-in where Martian Manhunter showed Spectre Hal that even someone as evil as the Joker had someone he loved and cared for, even if he suppressed it deep within his mad mind.
*EDIT:* Because I got the name of the event and the hero Spectre Hal talked to wrong.
I haven’t heard of this story, stoked to hear you guys discuss it!!!
Definitely a great Joker story. Take that, Geoff Johns!
‘‘Twas the night before thanksgiving and I knew what I was thankful for...
Watching this got me thinking that at the moment my favorite two superhero books are basically unreadable. Batman and spiderman
Hopefully Williamson turns it around in 1018.
Great to see you all!
Ben reminds me so much of my younger self. I see his brain always working for the gag. Love it!
Dancing is a way to display control and craziness at the same time, to display it in motion would be less passive than through other art forms
A nice end of my work day treat to listen to. Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!
I'm still waiting for batman no mans land sal 😠
50:40
"He's like a man possessed, standing on her lawn like dun-na-na-nuh-"
This feels like the inspiration for White knight
I remember a friend in high school telling me about this story but I never came across it. Thanks for covering it!!
Another banger from Comicpop!
One of the most unspoken about gems ever. If I listed my top ten Batman books ever, this would be too 6 or 7 minimum. Its phenomenal.
U should do Joker: Devil's Advocate for back issues
Joseph Kerr is fucking hilarious. That’s the kind of absurdity I miss in Batman comics.
I think this book is phenomenal for Heath Ledgers performance as the Joker alone.
What? This wasn’t a comic that was influential on his portrayal and Christopher Nolan certainly has never mentioned it.
@@DanV900 I like your comment for heath ledgers performance as the Joker alone
I dislike this comment, just for the Ledgers reference.
@@thegloriouswizard5270 this comment is phenomenal for Heath Ledger’s performance as joker alone.
I've been going through a lot of these, and very much enjoyed them. I'm not sure where else to do this, as I don't do much other social media, but I have a couple storylines/books I'd love to see you guys discuss (really DC-centric since that's what I grew up on).
First off, you guys need some Legion of Superheroes. You can go OG with The Great Darkness Saga, '80s Giffen dark humor with Five Years Later, reboot DnA space opera with Legion Lost '00-'01, or if you're really masochistic, anything since then. But come one, Bouncing Boy alone is worth it.
Tim Truman's Hawkworld mini is excellent, both for Truman's gorgeous art and for being one of the only times that character has ever been coherent.
JSA: The Golden Years, because come on, tell me the Dyna-Man reveal wouldn't break the couch.
And I'm sure I'll be back with more, since I have a feeling I could give Sal a run for his money. In the meantime, thanks for spreading the love of comics, all.
These are the best episodes of back issues
I also believe that the concept odpf Batman going sane was not only used in Kraven's last hunt but it the concept was used in another Batman story with Hugo Strange with strange wearing the batsuit and stuff.
Prey is the Hugo Strange story
@@Misadventures_85 ok cool
“Who was the hunter?”
Deathstroke. You know slade would look cool in the cowl
I'm just so happy for the princess bride reference it made the video.
What a Thanksgiving gift!
Yay! I have been waiting for you to cover this story, I have all but one issue of this one
I remember comicstorian covered this, was wondering when you guys were going to cover this.
Fadeing batman killing joke on ethan looked like what a hungry cartoon sees. Lol 3:56
Ah yes, the good old days when Joker stories were rather interesting and the character was used somewhat minimally! Unlike today. I'm a huge fan of Batman's mythology but the Jokester has become incredibly annoying.
Another great episode!!!
Always felt like Kravens Last Hunt was a batman story. Pretty interesting
Nice episode.👍
That is classic Back Issues
What the heck I haven't heard of this!? Sal and gang are the best...the best...that song 🎵 that starts like the something best...the best 🎵
@Flywheel Shyster: That's a Foo Fighter song:
czcams.com/video/h_L4Rixya64/video.html
dun dun da dun da! * small leap*
This is my first time hearing of this story and it’s a classic Back Issues.
This is a cool story. Another great video.
All that title made me think of is Batman Whit Knight which is of course incredible
Ben's beard looking powerful
Been waiting on y’all to review this one 💯💯
I actually read this before I read kraven's last hunt and I liked this story more.
Great episode.
This story reminds me a lot of Red Dragon, in the Joker stuff, especially with the girlfriend character.
Great video!
Did Ben go three for three with one liners in like 2 minutes? Damn lol
"There's jugglers there, and that's how you know it's the past because people are delighted by this." Um, I think millennials will be delighted by anything that's NOT the news now-a-days.
“Now that’s a blow-up doll.”
This could really work as a sequel to The Batman
JOKER! (in my best Mark Hamill voice)
Im kinda hoping the new joker miniseries references this
Can you do more comics about individuals within the bar family like red hood or Nightwing, or even sum Damian Wayne stuff
I like bens winter beard
47:51
This is my favorite joker story
Just found all four issues for 50 cents a piece last weekend.
I think Kraven could hold his own without Spider-Man in every movie!!! There are a lot of already created aspects of the Marvel universe to hunt and then you could also create new things for him to hunt!!!
I had no idea this story was connected to kraven last hunt because that's very interesting.
I think you can do a kravens last hunt with Batman but just use Azrael who wants to get into the mind of the bat.
Am I the only one who thinks that this title sounds almost exactly like *"Go Insane"* ?
Is your hand ok, Sal?
You noticed the wraps too, Wonder what happened?
He's totally ok! This was shot a couple weeks ago!
He got bit by another werewolf (reference to their Blackest Night back issues)
I was wondering the same thing. I hope he is healing up well, whatever happened.
LETS GOOOOO
This was neat. Sort of like a proto white knight.
Ben should run for presidente 💃 32:28
Btw $200 in 1994 is just under $375 in 2021
What's a fair price to buy the collected oop tp on ebay?
