Laughing American comics, I am becoming more and more like a clown

Is this... The Flash?

In the previous battle, the Flash had been seriously injured by Mad Laughter and lost his ability to move. Lucian didn't expect that he could still survive the nuclear explosion.

Then he saw himself step forward, grab the Flash's neck, and strangle the last breath out of him.

"Joker?" Lucian instinctively doubted him, but quickly realized: "Batman? You did it?"

The clown was again rambling on about his idea of ​​"flat impression but three-dimensional person".

Batman did not deny it. He put down his hand. After a while, a cheerful voice sounded from his mouth:

"Oh, Bat, I knew you weren't dead..."

?

The Flash was also resurrected in his body?

Lucian frowned. What was the principle behind this?

The Joker is mediated by the Joker virus... or you could say it's the Dionysus factor.

So does the Flash use his own speed force as a medium?

What about Batman? Batkin?

Perhaps the Batman personality was just suppressed by the laughter and not completely dead, and at some cost, he used the Batgold he wore as a medium to contact Lucian, thus "resurrecting".

so.

Lucian concluded:

He was able to bring people back to life in his mind after death through some medium, and the more times he died, the more active his personality became.

……

This might be something that Laugh-Maniac hadn't anticipated... or maybe he himself wasn't aware that the Batman personality was still alive.

But in short, this situation has now been formed.

Batman and the Joker are both alive and have achieved some kind of symbiosis.

"Well, I have to say, Bat, the Speed ​​Force can't be fully transferred to this body... But how did you survive? We thought you were dead. Who is Batman between you and him? You know, I was really scared when I saw him smile." A long string of words came out of Lucian's mouth when no one was paying attention:

"And you know what? Nightwing asked me to go to other parallel universes for help or go back to the past, but I failed... My God, whether I went back to the past or left the area, it was like I was frozen by Captain Freeze. This is something I have never encountered before..."

The Joker couldn't get a word in after the Flash's words, so Batman interrupted him: "How much is the Speed ​​Force?"

"Uh, all of it, but without the ability to regenerate."

It's a one-time thing.

"enough."

Lucien followed up on the conversation;

"Since the Flash can come back to life through the Speed ​​Force... what about the others? Superman? Wonder Woman? Aquaman? Green Lantern? Can they also come back to life in this body by using the power they represent?"

"So am I the humanoid version of Hellbat Armor?"

The Hell Bat Armor is a set of armor made for Batman by all the members of the Justice League using their own power.

"That's not necessary," Batman said. "It's enough."

The clown kindly explained, "Kid, the constraints of the rules can't be shaken by numbers."

"So what are you going to do? Scream, I'm the Joker, I'm Batman?"

"How clever!" the clown shouted, "I'm the clown!"

……

Lunatic.

……

After killing the Flash, no one controlled the legs to walk, and they all stood still in tacit understanding.

It was as if maintaining a murder scene while waiting for the police to collect evidence.

The "police" are coming...

"My dear... toy box?" Kuang Xiao tapped his temple with the batarang, as if to hint that Lucian's thinking was abnormal. He said:

"The last time we met, you were crying over the death of Joker's mother. The last time we met, you were sad about the fall of Kryptonian Dog... This time, you seem to have changed a lot."

Lucien said nothing, and he didn't know who was controlling his body. He skillfully pulled his facial expressions and pretended to be angry:

"You came here just to watch me kill the Flash? Isn't that what you want? If a Joker who doesn't kill people starts killing people and becomes a villain, does that prove that you are still Batman?"

"what!"

Kuangxiao was not angry about this. He walked closer, crushing the vitrified crystals on the ground with the soles of his metal boots. He walked straight to Lucian and looked down at him:

"You look like a pathetic masquerade."

He cut a gash on Lucien's face, blood oozing out: "The Joker's sulfur, Bruce's metal compulsion, and Barry's favorite éclair?"

Dionysus factor, Batgold, Speed ​​Force.

"Do you think these will be useful to you?"

Lucian pondered for a moment: "Is there a possibility..."

"I am the Joker, I am Batman, and I am also the Flash."

Laughing wildly:?

……

"So this is what makes you special." Kuang Xiao laughed and sighed: "You can revive them in your consciousness? Is this why the Joker chose you?"

"But what's the point? I can kill them when they're alive, but if they're resurrected again, I can't kill them anymore?"

Lucien didn't know what the use was, but to quote the Joker - "We already have a plan."

Batman took over the vocal organs. He was always concise, but this time he spoke the longest paragraph in Lucien's memory:

"I am Batman. After the Joker's death, I was infected with the Joker virus and the consciousness that was parasitic on it took over my body. After many attempts, I chose to lie dormant. Finally, I borrowed Batgold and came back to life in another body. I am Batman."

Kuang Xiao understood what he meant: "So the solution you came up with is to strip me of my identity? To make this world exclude me?"

The dark multiverse itself is incomplete and fragile, and it is particularly weak after experiencing multiple restarts. It has no power to repel the laughter, and even after repelling the laughter, it will collapse.

As expected, nothing happened after Batman finished speaking.

The Joker said, "Oh... sir, which third-rate villain are you? I need to make it clear in advance that I am not dead, but you know, I always have to exist in the same way as Batman."

He's also acknowledging Batman's legitimacy.

"Also, I need to remind you of one thing... The Joker IP is mine alone. Can anyone who kills me claim to have merged with me? Then, can I be called a clown ant colony when I'm being eaten? That's so tasteless."

The Joker waved his hand unhappily. "Besides, at least in this timeline, it was this gentleman who killed me. Which fake IP did you, a wretch born from Batman killing the Joker, kill?"

Chapter 54: Run Away~

He was denying the Joker part of Laughter.

One thing that's been overlooked: The Laugh was created when Batman killed the Joker.

But in the beginning, it was Lucian who killed the Joker by accident.

In other words, Maniac Laughs has been rebooted over and over again, but not only has it failed to find its own Joker and confirm Batman's identity, it has also lost its own origins.

So crazy?

Many people who can cross timelines go back to the past and either make their origins form a closed loop so that people cannot kill them from the timeline, such as the Golden Vanguard.

Or they hide their origin story, making it unclear how they were born, like the Joker.

……

If this is a positive universe or the main universe, a new timeline branch will be born from the time of the Laughing Reboot World (similar to the Flashpoint Universe).

But this is the dark multiverse, and it is too weak to support the birth of another timeline. Crazy Laughter really went back to the past, and his origin really disappeared.

Not only did he not make himself the unkillable person he was in the past, he also made his existence similar to that of a bug.

But fortune and misfortune are interdependent. The weakness of the dark multiverse makes the laughter "non-existent", but because of its weakness, it cannot erase "non-existent" things like the main world or the positive universe.

Simply denying his identity cannot kill Laughter from the perspective of causality and timeline.

Lucian looked up and saw that the whole world was flashing something like snow like an old-fashioned TV, but it quickly returned to normal.

Kuang Xiao realized this and he also started to refute it from the perspective of rules:

"Lucien is not Batman, Bruce Wayne is Batman."

Maybe Bruce Wayne doesn't necessarily become Batman, but there is no Batman named Lucian, which is the biggest advantage of Laugh-Out-Laughs.

No one can match Kuangxiao in terms of fighting power, but because Lucian cannot be killed, the battlefield is forced to shift to the level of rules, and Kuangxiao is extremely weak in the rules involving identity.

This is the Joker's "pre-planned" plan.

Both he and Batman chose to die and then be resurrected, thus gaining an advantage at the rules level.

Batman spoke, and he said what he had said countless times: "Bruce Wayne is not Batman, I am Batman."

Just as he had before Wonder Woman's lasso of truth, he once again answered the question, "Who are you?"

The snowflakes flashed again.

The Joker laughed: "You know, I will always recognize Batman, just like Batman will always recognize me... You are not Batman, I am Batman!"

The snowflakes twinkled longer.

Lucien was enlightened and smiled as he said, "I am a time traveler. I know all the plots, I have seen how everything develops, and I understand everyone's true identity. So I can prove it—I am Batman!"

……

Batman is a major player in the operation of the world. The rules written down by him cannot be changed, and his uniqueness is unquestionable.

The -22 universe, unable to eliminate the "virus" of wild laughter, fell into a fallacy. It instinctively wanted to eliminate the "wild laughter" but was unable to do so.

then.

The entire -22 universe timeline was frozen. If this were a comic book, this scene would be the end of the cursed eunuch.
