Hey I've wanted to storytime this miniseries for a while now so I figured now is as good a time as any.
>>93533895
Also my first time storytiming

Bump. How can you be bothered with 60 seconds per post now, OP? Thanks for the effort anyway.

Not the worst thing. A good podcast helps too.

I felt like shit for Penguin during this story
Thanks OP
>>93534804
>>93534831

Not the cheeriest of stories.

>>93533959
I never appreciated him when I was younger since I thought his bird and umbrella gimmick was eh. Now I miss it.
>>93534889
>>93534917
>>93534931
>>93533959
I personally always wondered why he is being thrown into Arkham, I mean he is cruel yes, but not as crazy as Zsasz or joker.
>>93534950
>>93534951
I imagine he'd be a King in prison.
>>93534969
>>93534988
>>93534951
He could at least use some therapy.
>>93534413
JOker?

Batman be creepin

Post timers do suck, and that is why I barely storytime anything longer than an issue or two. I've got crap to do.
Thanks for doing this anyways!

Honestly, it's the increasingly annoying captcha that's getting to me.
>>93535141
>>93535166
And that's 3 of 5
>>93535182
>>93535202
Side note. Penguin central gaslight when?
>>93535141
Have you got the "draw the sign" one's yet?
There is a captcha legacy mode, but I've never turned it on
>An hour for 3 issues
God damn this captcha SUCKS. It's killing storytimes and ultimately comic book discussion.
>>93535219
>>93535242
>>93535220
I've had it at least 6 times
>>93535230
Sorry man I wish I could go faster
>>93534951
He usually doesn't go to Arkham since he's not insane
>>93535266
>>93535266
I love how's Batman looks in this. I wish there were more books from the villains perpective like this. Besides this one, the only good ones I know of are Joker and Luthor.
>>93535284
>>93535300
>>93535294
Check out Joker's Asylum it's kinda like that for a bunch different villains
>>93535341
>>93535266
>Sorry man I wish I could go faster
Not your fault, nigga. It's Japanese Moots. You're doing a damn fine job.
>>93535363
>>93535388
>>93535372
Thanks mate
>>93535406
>>93535423
What villains would you like to see get a similar mini-series treatment?
>>93535445
>>93535459
>>93535474
>>93535492
>>93533959
He's easily my favorite Batman villain.
I find him to be criminally underrated these days.
>>93535445
I always liked Riddler, and thought a mini that went into his psyche like this one would be interesting.
>>93535507
>>93535530
>>93535508
This 100%
>>93535526
Did you ever listen to his audio logs in the original Arkham game?
>>93535554
>>93535568
>>93535581
4 of 5 almost done boys!
>>93535554
I haven't played Asylum in years. I should probably get to it. Is the PC port good?
>>93535594
Y'all like cover page art?
>>93535614
>>93535597
It's pretty shit imo
>>93535614
Thanks for posting this OP
>>93535597
Asylum, City, and Origins run pretty fine.
Knight was a disaster on release, but has apparently improved, but I have not personally tried it. I might get it during this steam sale though.
Here's some original performance:

>>93535614
This is blatant false advertising
>>93535445
Scarecrow, but if we're talking any characters villains than definitely Metallo
>>93535659
>>93535445
If it's any character, I'd love a Captain Cold story.
>>93535445
Killer Moth
>>93535712
In an azzarello style gritty book
>>93535719
While still wearing that dumb striped costume

>>93535918
And that's it. I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks for joining me for my first story time
>>93535946
Thanks anon, penguin is a great Batman villain.
This was really good
>>93533959
I miss him. The real him. What Snyder is pushing just doesn't feel right.
I like Penguin but I really don't like this one.
The art is pretty and it hits familiar notes for the character but the story is hacky and cliche, especially if you are familiar with the character, and it goes retarded at the ending. The retcon that Oswald intentionally killed his father is pointless, and the Joker's Asylum influences (fuck that comic) are way too prevalent. It's the Hush of Penguin stories.
I get that for people not familiar with Penguin besides watching him as a campy joke this comes across as fresh and amazing, and in truth it's not a bad way to reintroduce the character, but I think Pain and Prejudice is too overrated and too tryhard.
>>93534950
I like this running gag, it feels like a reference to Penguin and Joker's golden age friendship.
>>93535659
God a really good Mettalo story'd be amazing.
>>93535113
>incanspeculous
also thank you for this thread OP
good storytime op. I never read this when it came out but it always looked interesting. good choice
>>93533895
Bump
bumping to keep a good storytime alive
