>A batarang!
>It looks like a boomerang...
>Shaped like a bat!
>Batarang...
>I know!

What in the unholy fuck

Well that was dumb and underwhelming.

Bendis.

It's true, it's all true.

I didn't know Marvel readers actually had to put up with this, I thought everyone was just meme-ing. Holy shit.

Bendis,
The writer,
Brian Michael Bendis.
The comicbook writer.

You mean that writer for Marvel?

No, that's too believable. It has to be Dick, the notorious playboy of the family. He never committed to a girl because he likes penis and has been faking straight his entire life.

So Duke

Yeah, the Marvel writer.

Dick?

It doesn't really work if it's posted by just one person.

No thank you.

But...

Ho-lee shit...
What the fuck is this retard thinking? This can't be considered good writing by any standard. It's like he thinks the worst part of anime is the good thing. Don't treat your reader like a moron.

>by any standard

By comic book standards, it can get you a top-selling Spider-Man series, a permanent mark on the Avengers franchise, freedom from editors, and the flexibility to write any ongoing or crossover you please. Or hell, even drop an ongoing when you're bored of it!

lol

>Alfred, get me-
>Hold on.
>Okay.
>Okay, I'm done.
>The jo-
>WHat about the Joker?
>He's out.
>Broke out of Arkham?
>Yes.
>Again?
>Yes.
>Oh dear.
>I need my batmobile ready.
>Which one?
>You know the one.
>You mean the-
>Yes. That one.

Flash goes back in time to bring all the past Robins together to have an intervention on Batman's "unprofessional relationship" with them.

>Panel 1, car pulling up
>Panel 2, guy getting out of car
>"I'm here. What do you need? I was at the movies."
>Panel 3, walking up the stairs
>"The guy inside holding this place asked for you."
>"Yeah? Who's that?
>"Finch".
>"Finch?"
>Panel 4, larger than first three panels
"Hello. I'm Finch."
There, I just made the thing much better. And there'd be room for more panels. 2 or 3, depending on how big panel 4 is.

Agreed

this is awesome

Holy kek. This isn't edited?

this is fucking unreadable

"Whats a clitoris?"
Why did she ask that? Was that set up earlier in this comics story? Is it an in-joke or running gag?

Haha you nailed it! Best post if the year!

Now that's Bendis dialogue down pat.

Scott Lobdell must have gotten an erection when he saw this much dialogue on one page.

>Panel one: car pulling up
>Panel two: Walker gets out of the car
>Walker
>Captain...
>Panel three: full body of the captain, he has apolagetic body language
>We've been calling
>I was at the movies
>we been calling is all--
>Panel four, wide shot, the characters are looking at the building in the background
>Yeah, well-- what is this? I'm homocide.
>You're a cop and the guy inside wants you
>who? williams?
>no
>Panel 5: just the two cops interacting
>hey walker
>no, I screwed the pooch
>Panel 6: walker falls out against his collegue, wagging his finger at him
>you- you couldn't negotiate supersizing a happy meal, you total piece of
>Come on captain! I--
>Panel 7: walker makes a dismissive hand gesture and turns his back on him, walking further on the stairs with the captain
>I'm going to deal with your incompetent ass later.
>Next page
>Panel 1: they're halfway up the stairs
No, the guy holding the place, he asked for you
>the guy inside?
>Panel 2:
>he asked for me?
>and only you
>he asked for ME? who is it?
>Panel 3:
>some shmuch by the name of-
>uh, of finch
>finch?
>Panel 4: the boss stops walker before walking all the way up to the front door, faces him to hold a conversation more easily
>finch. wears a green thing with a thing on his back
>finch?
>He's got a little girl in there. used to date the mom
>panel 5: close up of the boss' face
>he came over. they got into a domestic
>he threw her out of the second story window and boarded himself up there
>panel 6: close of walkers face
>and the woman? the mom?
>took her down to mercy, she was alert enough to call us
>finch? I don't know a finch.
>Panel 7: another wide shot of the building
>the rest of the converstation

It's good dialogue but it's to crammed. The text boxes drown out the drawings. That much interaction requires that much space.

and Luke Cage

...

You get a medal.
A Bendis medal.

Somebody make a Bendis medal.

A medal?

Yea, a medal. You give it as a reward.

A reward, huh?

bump

Thanks

Yes, to congratulate you for your post.

>COMISSIONER GORDON: Batman, we have reports that a homicidal clown named the Joker has taken over-
>BATMAN: What?
>GORDON: What?
>BATMAN: Are you serious?
>GORDON: Yes, he's already killed three people-
>BATMAN: Not about that.
>GORDON: Oh.
>BATMAN: Yeah.
>GORDON: Then what?
>BATMAN: His name.
>GORDON: His name?
>BATMAN: It's kind of...
>GORDON: "It's kind of" what?
>BATMAN: On the nose, don't you think?
>GORDON: I don't follow.
>BATMAN: He's a clown-
>GORDON: OK.
>BATMAN: OK? He's a clown. Named "The Joker."
>GORDON: What are you trying to say?
>BATMAN: Don't you think that's a little... On the nose?
>GORDON: "On the nose?"
>BATMAN: Yeah.
>GORDON: Batman, he's a serial killer. It doesn't matter what his name is. Killer Croc, Poison Ivy-
>BATMAN: Wait a minute, wait a minute.
>GORDON: WHAT?
>BATMAN: There's someone honestly called "Poison Ivy?"

Bump?

You gotta keep in mind that back then Bendis' dialogue was seen as being more realistic than traditional comics writing at the time. Nowadays he does it so often with characters who shouldn't be talking like it that it became a cliche.

Duke got his shit pushed in by Damian 2 of the 3 times he talked to him, and the 3rd time was just them going to the movies.
