    Two things about this story. One, the Nygma Box is dangerously close to "The Box" from Batman Forever. Except instead of stealing people's brainwaves to make him smarter, it mind controls them to commit crimes. Which brings me to my next point, mind control is more a Jervis Tetch thing than a Riddler thing. And yes, Huggbees' version was a far better story than what we actually got.

    There’s actually a bit of clever writing in your script for a proper comic. Usually, rage and anger leads to poor play and performance across pretty much all games. The Riddler, letting his emotions getting the best of him, helps bolster a message of keeping your cool in tense situations.

      One of the tokens is hidden behind a door locked with an impossible-sounding riddle. The riddler gloats about how the dumb gamers know nothing.
      Then, one responds "I *know* the physics in your game is actual trash" & picks up a trashcan lid off the street. He presses it against the door & runs into it. After a few seconds of colliding with the wall at odd angles, he clips through, grabs the token, & opens the door from the other side.

    I think there's a real missed opportunity here with batman actually entering the game and having so many moments to show off batman adapting his skillset to approach the new medium. Instead of using a gaming set-up like the other players like keyboard, controllers, etc, he instead has an entire vr room with a free motion treadmill, height sensors and track suit to translate every small movement he does in the real world into the game world, fully committed to not treating this like a game and more like his standard missions.
    It could also be fun seeing him adapt to a leveling system, only to have him end up exploiting it in some way, not only leveling up the class he started with, but quick switching to other classes before the finishing blow on a boss to level them up and have as many skills at his disposal as physically possible.
    But for as fun as it could be to see batman thriving despite the circumstances, I do think there would be some challenges for him, the most important being that not every object in the game is interactable, what he sees in the room doesn't always line up with what he can use to his advantage, a chandelier may not be programmed to swing, a hammer hanging on the wall may be there just for decoration, and most importantly, weaknesses don't exist if they are not intentionally programmed in, hitting something in the eye won't cause blindness unless the riddler specifically allows it to happen.

Considering how the Batman/Fortnight crossover one (while no mean a masterpiece) managed to not only be serviceable on a basic level, but actually made sense given the setting. I’m still trying to figure out HOW and WHY this exists, but at the very least, I’m glad it provided you with something to work off of. I really enjoy your work, especially so when you talk about comic book stuff.

Basically he broke down Riddler's self confidence enough that he just couldn't prepare any traps or challenges he felt confident in, so Batman just waltzed right in and arrested him. Huggbees gets pizza and a utility belt for his contribution. Andrew winds up upside down with his butt showing in the batcave. Alfred has to get him down.

    The solution for the killswitch issue you propose is simple: get Batman in the game.
    If Riddler designed it fully he would never trigger the switch and kill Bruce until he could prove the game he made was too hard for the Batman to complete.
    That way Bruce and...God why I'm doing this...Bruce and Faze Clan would get an opening to try and complete the game.
    Of course Riddler would just kill them if they get close to finishing but here we get to the other part of the plan. While they're doing that other members of the family would be capitalizing on the distraction to take him down irl. They get him before he could activate the switch and the day is saved. It would also be hilarious to have boomer Batman trying to understand game logic and dealing with the members of Faze.

Then the riddler breaks out counter strike and it’s the first time a realistic looking gun is seen which would be a good visual indicator that shit is going down and the stakes are higher.
    So many creative avenues could be made with Gotham villains being in a virtual world but instead the story reads like the result of something written over a coffee break where nobody was served any caffeine.

    B. Having the clan lose to Riddler and having Batman save them isn't pandering.

      Honestly, even without the 'insults' seeing his game being cleared so easily, perhaps the Faze Clan commenting on how 'easy' the game was, would perhaps be enough to annoy the Riddler into making that mistake. After all, the game is perfect, unwinnable perhaps, he made it that way, so having someone breeze through it, while making simple comments on the ease about it, shoudl be enough to hit the right buttons to make him take such a dumb risk, just to prove he is superior.

      Riddler + VR helmets is already a better Batman: TAS episode than this comic could have ever been

    16:16 Yeah, throwing in Optic Clan and/or a bunch of Call of Duty tryhard wannabes who stole the FaZe clan tag would be a more suitable final boss.

    Oh boy I've heard about this one, it's pretty bad from the title alone, now let's witness how far and below DC has come on the Lord's year 2022

    What i absolutely LOVE is that instead of complaining about the comic being shit you actually come up with your own actually good alternative to the comic. “Complaining about a problem without posing a solution is called whining.” Teddy Roosevelt.

    Hey Huggbees, why don't you try to write for DC once? The way you fixed that comic with probably little to no thought, and their real urgent need for decent writers for their dozens of characters and stories with potential or something.

    I like the thought of Mr. Freeze having the voice he does in Batman 4 in this comic.

    The funniest part to me is that, by their conversation in the beginning, there was supposedly another unnamed thing that Robin suggested Faze clan could have helped him and Batman with in the past.

    I remember watching something as a part of dexter’s lab growing up where the justice friends defeated a villain using fruit pies as a way to get around the villain’s “hey no violence in schools” bit.
