No, maybe he wasn't as well known as his evil counterpart.
Maybe he didn't have a "Ha Ha Hacienda."
Maybe he was just a throwaway "Countdown" character that Sean McKeever & Jamal Igle invested far too much wonderful writing and art to.
But he was somebody, dammit!
And now he's gone.
I don't know...
First Puppet Master dies, then Jokester. Now I received an e-mail that somebody died in the new issue of "Captain Carrot."
Stop this world, I want to get off!
(sniff)
Anyway...
Jokester, I have one thing to say to you. And that is:
GOODBYE, FUNNY MAN!
And...
Thanks...for the memories.
I read Captain Carrot last night and can't remember any character death. (One death was referred to, but that happened a few years ago.)
ReplyDeleteThe ONLY good thing to come out of Countdown was that Crime Society book, and then they kill the result.
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell is wrong with DC?
Why is everyone assuming he's dead?
ReplyDeleteOne, they just introduced him. Two, they said Green Arrow was dead and I assume people know better now. Three, all we've seen is one panel of him getting shot.
I agree. The Joker comes back all the time; no reason the Jokester should be any different. It probably hit him in the rubber chicken.
ReplyDeleteOh, one more thing about Captain Carrot: Fox and Crow! Yay!
ReplyDeleteso is the Jokester Duela Dent's real father?
ReplyDeleteYep. Her mother is a villain named Three-Face.
ReplyDeleteEr, not a villain, since she's from Earth-3.
ReplyDeleteThree-face?
ReplyDeleteThat's stupid and awesome at the same time.
It's a woman with three-way split personality - two are aggressive and dominant while the third is the one that the Jokester originally met and fell in love with.
ReplyDeleteShe speaks in three different-colored speech balloons. ^_^
Oh, just tell me her name is Eve...
ReplyDeleteOh, just tell me her name is Eve...
ReplyDeleteIt is!
