Hi Collin its Bob from the modern age section. I came here because I wanted to see the 3 Jokers placement but my only problem now is Red Hood yeah because you listed red hood outlaw 32 before doomsday clock (3 jokers is than after), But Red Hood is wearing a different Mask and in 3 Jokers he is wearing his helmet so could the Red Hood storyline be after 3 jokers Before Batman beats red hood up or is there an explanation?Thanks Again!
Thanks for helping me work through this, Bob! Johns and Fabok definitely are playing fast-and-loose with continuity here—and they even said so, going as far as to ludicrously say, “take it or leave it” to other writers. Of course, this story was referenced canonically in other big-time issues, so it’s def canon. Originally, I assumed we should just ignore Jason’s costume, since technically it’s a Fabok re-design anyway. However, upon further review, this is def his pre-hood HELMET look, so yeah I think it should go before Red Hood #26 (where Jason debuts his new sans-Helmet look). However, if we are going by costumes, then this story has to also go after Batgirl has ditched her purple Burnside duds and returned to more traditional attire.
The latter occurs right around Red Hood #26-27, SO here’s my fix… THREE JOKERS should go right before Red Hood #26-27, functioning as Jason’s final story with his old Helmet look.
Yeah Thanks that makes sense now anyway for The Batman Costume I would just say that he was testing costumes to where because he just dawned his new Rebirth Suit and also he cut it in 3 joker so he probably scraped it and later used it in Doomsday clock thanks!
I suspect that the ‘Kate Kane, Director of Spyral’ thing was artist error, and that it was meant to be referencing something that occured while Kathy Kane (Kathy Webb-Kane/Katrina Netz) was head of Spyral.
Hey Dylan, yeah you are probably right on this one. I always thought it was weird that Bendis and company labeled and drew Kate Kane as Director of Spyral, but no one ever followed up on that. Kathy Kane is (and has been for some time) Director of Spyral. Good call!
Collin I have a question about a problem I found, so I was reading Hell Arisen and Joker war and I saw the Commissioner Gordon was infected in Hell Arisen#2 but kinda cured in Joker War so is something up or like was their something I missed thanks.
See my previous comment response. DC might have shit the bed on this one since all of the infected six are shown (numerous times) to be fully cured prior to Hell Arisen. So, we are forced to believe that the infection flares up and recesses randomly (or goes dormant/asymptomatic). And there actually is a Lex Luthor line of dialogue in Hell Arisen #1 that says the JL thought they’d had the virus already dealt with, which directly speaks to this continuity issue.
Oh ok I get it, ah sorry for posting 2 times I couldn’t see my comments so I thought it didn’t work anyways thanks.
