Going Straight; Puppet Show; 24 Hours; Study Hall; Laughter After Midnight last edited by mrnobody32 on 01/02/24 01:57PM View full history

    “GOING STRAIGHT.” Hollywood stuntwoman Roxanne Sutton turned to crime as the thief Roxy Rocket. After serving two years for her crimes, she is released for good behavior. Batman questions whether she will truly reform or if it is all a mere act. Plus, “A PUPPET SHOW” and “LAUGHTER AFTER MIDNIGHT.”

    This is a collection of various one-shot short stories featuring the cast of characters shown on the cover: The Scarecrow, The Joker, Harley Quinn/Dr Harleen Quinzel, The Ventriloquist and Scarface.

    The Joker's story, the last in this volume, titled 'Laughter at Midnight' is brilliant.

    These stories are 'not to be taken seriously' as a plot-changing arc with great humour.

    Note: Ranked #76 in Wizard Magazine's list of "100 Best Single Issue Comics Since You Were Born".

    The Batman Adventures Annual #1 - Going Straight; Puppet Show; 24 Hours; Study Hall; Laughter After Midnight by psychotime on May 22, 2009

    Another story from the team. There were a few artists who did some small parts, though. I hate the art for the Scarface and Scarecrow stories (even though the stories are good). Thankfully, the segments are short and we go to Timm's artwork.This was full of short stories, which I guess is what Annuals are all about. My favorite one is Laughter After Midnight, where the Joker is walking home after being beaten by Batman. It's drawn by John Byrne. I must say, this guy knows how do draw cartoons. H...
