Facts have proved that the classic allusion "The Wolf Cried Wolf" can be circulated for so many years and endure for so long, so it naturally has its own uniqueness.
Over the years that Batman has been fighting the Joker, he has become too familiar with the Joker's behavioral patterns and methods of arranging conspiracies.
Many fans of DC Comics find it difficult to understand that Batman is so powerful, why did he only discover that the Joker was doing something wrong at the last moment when the Joker asked him to make a multiple-choice question about human nature? Shouldn't he have discovered it as soon as he kidnapped the hostages?
?
The first is because Batman is like an emperor in a feudal monarchy, with three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines. Countless villains in Gotham take turns to cause trouble, and he is not the only one who favors the Joker.
When the Joker is stirring up trouble, some villains have already brought brutal crime scenes to the table. Batman will definitely choose to stop the most harmful ones first.
The second reason is that before the Joker decides to prepare a feast, he must make some appetizers to attract Batman's attention, or explain one thing while concealing another.
No matter which plot Batman pursues, the Joker can make a feast of the other plot and serve it to Batman at a later time. On the surface, Batman is chasing the Joker but still can't stop the conspiracy in advance, but
In fact, he may have solved more than a dozen conspiracies during the chase.
Batman has experienced this kind of thing too many times, so of course he would feel that the Joker must have created another double-ended problem this time to mess with his mentality.
Batman analyzed that the victim of the Joker's conspiracy this time seemed to be Spider-Man. After all, the Joker injected the source of darkness potion concentrated in Gotham's rainwater into Spider-Man not long after his appearance, hoping to see him.
He turned black and turned against Batman.
But in fact, this is just a temporary plan by the Joker, and the trap he has laid out long ago is aimed at this group of Robins who often appear in Gotham.
In this matter alone, Batman has no other possibilities to consider. After all, what reasons and motivations do the people of the Bat family have to build a big bomb and come back to destroy Gotham?
What's the significance of this? How could their temperament change in such a short period of time? No matter who thinks about it, the possibility is extremely low, almost non-existent.
This is about Batman's stereotype of the universe where Schiller lives, or it can't be said to be a stereotype. There are so many universes and so many Gothams, which Gotham is different? Even Gothams in different universes are different.
How could it be worse?
Since they are all the same, the birds are like taking a trip, and because Schiller's universe, Gotham, has better sunshine, they should be more cheerful and lively when they come back. How could they suddenly want to destroy the world?
?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
But most of the coincidences in this world are unreasonable. Robins suddenly went crazy, and their madness happened to fit the Joker's behavior pattern. Batman could logically put the blame on the Joker, and because the Joker
I never thought that I might one day be wronged by Dou E. I didn't leave any room for myself to clear my name, even if I jumped into the Yellow River, I wouldn't be able to clear myself.
He is like the child in the story of boy who cried wolf. He shouted too many times. Not only did Batman not believe him, but none of the major villains in Gotham City believed in him because the Joker tricked these people.
This is not the first time that villains have used them as gunmen.
The Riddler, Penguin, Clayface, Hugo, and Black Mask mostly smiled coldly and turned a deaf ear when they heard the Joker's cry of wolf. Corrupt officials, gangsters, wealthy businessmen, and the police immediately turned a blind eye when they saw the Joker.
Shut him out or simply disappear.
Finally, the one who sincerely believes in the "crying wolf" message is Spider-Man.
"What? Mr. Clown, you said that a villain made a big nuclear bomb and wanted to blow up this city. Why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
Spider-Man anxiously pulled the Joker's sleeve and stared. The Joker rolled his eyes slightly. He immediately turned around and responded to Spider-Man and said: "Listen, your name is Spider-Man, right? I have to tell you."
You, Batman is also a human being, he is not omniscient and omnipotent, so if he tells you that it is okay, it may not really mean that it is okay..."
"Of course, I don't think he is a god who knows everything. There must be things he didn't expect."
On the contrary, the Joker was stunned. This was the first time he saw Robin who did not worship Batman as a god.
"So, please tell me what's going on. The two of us can work together to take precautions in advance to prevent some super criminal from really blowing up the city!"
Listening to Spider-Man's tone, the Joker thought for a moment. He looked at Spider-Man and said, "You seem to be very experienced in this?"
Spider-Man opened his mouth and then closed it, and finally said helplessly: "You may not believe it, but in the past few years, I have been running on the road to save the world, and the city I was in was bombed.
How many times."
"Then I think we have something in common." The clown immediately acted like a persuasive philosopher, but he did not describe himself as a good person, but said sincerely: "In the past days, I
He is indeed a criminal. I surrendered to the police station and confessed all my crimes. You heard it, right?"
Spider-Man nodded and confirmed his statement, so the Joker went further: "You will definitely feel strange, why did I plead guilty and then escape from prison? But I want to say that if it is for myself,
This does no good at all.”
"Although I am a mental patient and will eventually be sent to a mental hospital, my behavior of escaping from prison in the interrogation room will definitely make the nurse increase my dosage of medication, which is not a good thing for me."
Spider-Man nodded again in agreement. What the Joker said was indeed true. At least from Spider-Man's point of view, there was nothing wrong with it, because unlike Batman, he had not been fighting the Joker for many years and knew his way very well.
number.
From Spider-Man's point of view, if the Joker doesn't want to go to jail, then there is no need for him to surrender and plead guilty. But since he confessed and escaped from prison, didn't he plead guilty in vain?
"My escape from prison has a hidden agenda. There are some things that only I can prevent, but Batman only takes a wait-and-see attitude towards this and has no reaction to the crisis at hand. Man, this is really not me discrediting him."
The clown deliberately adjusted his tone to make his words and tone appear younger, fully demonstrating his ability to talk to people and tell ghosts.
Sure enough, Spider-Man's curiosity was aroused, and he pretended to listen attentively. The Joker did not tempt him, but said: "As I said before, there is a group of people who want to restore the gang rules here.
, they got a big bomb produced by the former Soviet Union, which is a nuclear warhead with a super high yield, and they probably modified this warhead. You should know how dangerous this is, right?"
Spider-Man's eyes widened when he heard the word "renovation". He looked at the clown and said: "Renovate nuclear warheads, how do they modify them? Can they still have a production line?"
"That's the problem. It's a bunch of crazy teenagers who learned some skills from Batman on their own. Oh, I'm not saying it's Batman's fault. Maybe Batman didn't know they dared to be so reckless, but you
You should know how crazy and extreme your peers are."
Spider-Man showed a hesitant expression, and the Joker immediately responded: "What is certain is that they do not have the professional skills and conditions to transform this thing, but they just boldly did it, so I don't know what the bomb is.
It will explode when the time comes.”
"Listen, Spider-Man, I'm not doing it for Gotham, or justice, I'm doing it for my own life. I don't want to be suddenly bombed by a nuclear bomb while watching TV in a mental hospital."
These words are very consistent with the character of the Joker. If he said something false for the sake of saving Gotham or justice, Spider-Man would definitely be able to hear it, but when he said it like this, Spider-Man was somewhat unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
After all, from Spider-Man's point of view, who doesn't want to live? Even the most vicious criminals have the possibility of saving their lives. The logic of the Joker's behavior makes sense.
"Although I really want you to die on your back, it's obvious that you can't stop a nuclear bomb from exploding by yourself, and I don't want you to do any complicated work. You have to find a way to find out where they hid the nuclear bomb.
." The Joker looked into Spider-Man's eyes and said seriously.
"If that's the case, then I..."
"I mean, the two of us will find it together."
"But I alone..."
"Don't be ridiculous, man." The clown grinned deliberately, showing a slightly sinister smile and said: "The consequences of them getting the bomb are the same as you getting the bomb. How do I know if you will not think about pressing the button?"
Button, I don’t trust anyone, I have to personally ensure that this thing will not harm me!”
With a typical selfish villain's face, even his smile and raised eyebrows were impeccable, so Spider-Man naturally didn't see anything wrong. He stood there and hesitated for a while, then nodded and said: "
Well, under certain extreme circumstances, I will cooperate with super criminals, but after this incident is over, I will still arrest you and take you to the police station, and you'd better not take any chances."
"Let's talk about it when the time comes." The clown had a confused expression on his face, "I will definitely disobey you then." However, the logic of all his performances was smooth, and his character design was consistent, showing a man who had to stop him in order to save his life.
The image of a criminal who is a greater disaster, Spider-Man doesn't know the Joker that well, so he thinks this is no problem.
In this way, the Joker deceived Spider-Man to go find the big bomb with him. On the one hand, he wanted to solve the imminent peace crisis in Gotham. On the other hand, he needed a witness to prove that the Robins' madness was not caused by him.
.
But soon, the Joker discovered that Spider-Man used exhaustive methods to find anything in Gotham.
There was no subtle reasoning, no rigorous logic, or even wild guesses. It was just a matter of sheer force. He could always find what he wanted by checking street by street.
If it were an ordinary person, this method might be too time-consuming and not suitable for use in situations where a bomb explosion is imminent. But who is Spider-Man? His day can be used as 48 hours, and he is done.
In the end, the Joker couldn't stand it anymore. To put it bluntly, he is the same type of person as Batman. He can rely on his brains but not his physical strength for everything. He can predict events like a god and never charge into battle.
But the Spider-Man who came here is still a street hero, and he doesn't use his brain normally. The source of darkness drug injected into him by the Joker further strengthened the paranoid aspect of his character.
The Joker told him that there was definitely no such thing on a certain street, and Spider-Man didn't believe it. He had to go and walk through it himself. According to him, a wise man always makes mistakes. If you make a wrong judgment, Gotham will be destroyed.
Have you? How can it be better than me practicing it myself?
Moreover, the good neighbor Spider-Man's ability to meddle in other people's business is at the level of rules. If you search a street, just search it. If you see a bicycle that has fallen over, should you help it? If you see someone lifting something heavy, should you help it? If you see a drain pipe dripping, you should repair it.
Bar?
It's not like the clown hasn't tried to persuade him that when a disaster is approaching, he should focus on the main contradiction first, but the answer he gets is always, "Don't worry, I can move very quickly and it won't take long."
In fact, it didn't take long, but if it continues like this, Gotham's civilization construction will really flourish.
When the time comes, it won’t matter if the Gotham Good Neighbor Award is awarded to Spider-Man, the Joker who is following Spider-Man and making faces will also have to go on stage to receive the award.
What’s even scarier is that the person presenting the award has to be Bruce Wayne.
