It will be. Thanks! I’ll just wait for him to come back then. I started thinking maybe he only goes there at the start and then has some other loop. I wanted to just steal his boat and leave with the target still alive out of frustration. I forgot you can’t do that outside of freelancer

If you want, you can just poison his drink right there in that room but it may take quite a while for him to finish his loop and finally drink from the glass. There are a lot of much faster ways to take him out.

Thanks. I wasn’t looking for speed. I’m just playing and having fun… but this one’s route was pretty long and made me start wondering if I was missing something. About 6 min after you told me he would come back to the art room he finally did. I got him with the fibre wire, changed back to my suit, and managed to ninja over to the speedboat for my exit. Total time in the map was 32 min though bc I kept missing him. SA & I only pacified 3 other characters.

Well done! I have killed this guy a bunch of different ways via the off-line elusives mod but this time around I just did the wine glass and waited by the exit until Diana told me to leave. It was rather boring, frankly, but I was also at work, technically, and just wanted it out of the way.

Apparently “The Batman 2” is going to be delayed until October 2026. I’m not sure if there’s anything known about the story so i wonder who the villain will be. God i hope its not the fucking Joker again.
Personally I’d love to see Clayface, but I’m afraid they’re still going for the “realism” in this new Batman continuity…
Which villain would you like to see?

Agree only insofar as this is what he’s being set up to look like:
While I’m not suffering any Joker-fatigue, I am getting sick of the crazy scarred guy in make-up look everyone’s been going for since The Dark Knight. Can we please stop trying to recreate that particular batch of lightning in a bottle and get a proper interpretation of the character again? That’s half the reason for the fatigue right there! The Joker exists across so broad a spectrum in behavior that he can barely be considered an individual character even inside a single continuity, yet they keep going for the philosopher in scars and paint version. We’ve seen that! Hold back on the guy until this continuity has had some time to give us characters we really care about, then bring the guy in with a more comic-accurate portrayal and make a version of the Death In The/Of The Family stories so that it’s got some impact, and make the Joker scary by making him funny, for goodness sake!

Speaking for me personally, that ship has long since sailed. I still haven’t bothered to watch The Batman or that Joker movie. It’s too overplayed for me these days, and I still have never read a comic.

The Joker movie, eh, that’s a toss-up; the character makes little sense outside the context of having Batman around, even for an origin story. Watch it if you’re a fan of works like the kind Scorsese does and you might enjoy it. The Batman, though, I definitely recommend even if you’re worn out on the character. I didn’t see it at first, as I was tired of yet another reboot of the franchise, and this one happening while another was still technically going on. But I can tell you, it is absolutely the best Batman movie ever made, by quite a good margin. The Dark Knight is still better, but I consider it more than just a mere Batman movie. The Batman, however, is fully a Batman movie, and it is absolutely the best. We’re talking the Casino Royale of the character.
Yeah if you are a Scorsese fan you are still better off watching the two works who had a huge (and some would say detrimental) influence of the film. Those ostensibly being Taxi Driver and The King of Comedy.
Hey fun fact did you know due to the Academy’s complete lack of taste Billie Eilish now has more Oscars than Martin Scorsese?

Yeah sad to say there aren’t many top tier Batman books that don’t have The Joker in them.

There’s a reason for that. (
Don’t know what it is, though

Careful with that endorsement. When you say Casino Royale, you probably think this:

I get what you mean, but nobody should think of anything but the Craig film anymore when referring to that title.
Reboot of the reboot of the reboot of the relauch of the trilogy, like with Spider Man?
That’s tiring. Sometimes it’s seems like all those comicses have been read just couple of issues by all those film people.
Are there thousands (at least hundreds) of issues of every comics series on every superhero?
I wonder why they got caught on only couple of vilians and keep putting them all over again countless amount of times

Well I’ve never seen the Craig film and I’ve seen the 60’s era Casino Royale movie about 50 times, so I will continue to think of that one! Peter Sellers, David Niven, Ursula Andress, Orson Welles and Woody Allen! I mean what’s not to like?
Ok, yeah, the movie is crap, but it’s old 60’s crap so it’s almost funny!

Same reason why every continuity of Godzilla always features, without variable, the Big Three: Mothra, Ghidorah, and Mechagodzilla, and all the others have to spin the wheel and pray their name comes up and they get to make an appearance. Sometimes, certain antagonistic characters to a series’ hero are so memorable, their original stories so good, that when a chance to tell a new version of the hero’s story comes up, people want to know what their most memorable enemies would be like in this new version, too. Godzilla, Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, James Bond; Hell, even DragonBall Super had to find a way to bring Frieza, Cell, and Broly into the mix despite their stories supposedly concluding decades ago, and it’s supposed to be the same continuity! It’s not.

As a fan of original Spider Man trilogy with Maguire, I would have liked to know what would have happened in next films with those original actors and original film crew.
I’m sure there are more to it than just those three vilians in original trilogy.
I’m lazy to google up all those vilians in all the films of Spider Man, but if Jamie Foxx portrayed Electro fighting Tobey it would’ve been something.
So I understand what Ochoa means
Sure. But once the continuity changed, what happened? New Green Goblin (literally Spider-Man’s Joker), they were setting up new Doctor Octopus, both of the ones from the first trilogy reappeared in the MCU, and Venom got two of his own movies in a separate continuity that’s connected via the Multiverse, so I’ll count that as belonging to both Spider-Man continuities that followed the first trilogy. With Spider-Man, it’s always those three; his Big Three.
Now, Batman doesn’t have a Big Three, just the Big One; no prize for guessing.
So admittedly, my knowledge of the Batman universe is limited to the movies I’ve seen and the Adam West TV show but aren’t the Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler, Two-face, etc all pretty “big” villains that are usually associated with just Batman?
Yes, but they don’t appear in every continuity. The only Batman continuity I’m aware of that didn’t have the Joker is the Beware The Batman CGI cartoon series, and that’s just because it was cancelled before they brought him in. The only consistently present Batman villain is the Joker, making him the Big One.
