@@DanExclaimsplease, you give such funny commentary that I still watch your vids when I know the stories! Plus it’s a story everyone should be told about
Joker laughs about his stupid plan and while he’s laughing, he suddenly realizes he’s back in Gotham tied up to the bat signal. That sounds like something the Flash would do.
Can you imagine being Gordon or a random cop on the roof probably to summon Batman and suddenly you hear insane laughter and look to the previously unobstructed batsignal just to see a clown tied to it laughing like a maniac?
The Flash, from the Joker's perspective, just isn't *fun*. You might be able to kill people or blow something up, but he moves too fast to set up, let alone appreciate, the joke.
@@jarowanHonestly I think the fact that Flash has a sense of humor would ruin the fun for Joker. Batman never laughs about much of anything. He's always brooding and stoic. Joker might think he wants to make him crack but as we know the one time he did make him laugh it's heavily implied that ended Joker's life right after. And honestly I think if Joker even saw Bats start giggling a little he'd be so bewildered it'd probably freak him out so much he'd just surrender. Remember when Terry fought him in the Batman Beyond movie? Terry being willing to trash talk back to him completely ruined him. Not only could Flash make light work of him before he could even put his plan into motion: he'd completely clown him (pun intended lol.) Honestly, if you wanna stop Joker you either just kill him, or roast him. He only thinks he's funny because Bruce doesn't criticize his material or play his game lol.
@@mattphillips3537 If I remember, there is a recent storyline that pretty much says that there are 3 jokers, they are always going to exist, and just killing one, as in Injustice, is NOT going to make things better.
That's the thing...the Rogues aren't crazy, at least not the successful ones. They have it figured out. The ones who just want money, the Captain Colds and Tricksters...they aren't thinking of trying to kill the Flash. They just wanna keep him busy. Distracted. Maybe at best knock him out. Killing him? Brings way too much heat on them and most of them are pro-thieves. They don't think like the Gotham freaks and tend to not associate with those who do.
Reason why the villains all have agreement with the Flash(es). Let the villains finish their Evil Villainous Monologue. They've worked REALLY REALLY REALLY hard on perfecting it. And knowing the Flash(es). They agreed to it. Because the Flash(es) is/are bro(s) like that.
There's a great issue of Impulse with The Riddler in it. He says that there's a bomb in the city, and gives Bart his riddle. Bart zips off, checks every building in the city, and asks Riddler if he meant this bomb, and hands it to him. Then Riddler tells him he has a second bomb, and, before he can even tell the second riddle, Bart hands him that bomb too, telling him he found it while looking for the first one. 😂
I love the idea of the joker just casually setting up chemical weapons taking half a second to dust himself off or sneeze just to open his eyes and be back in Gotham City limits and go "what the fuck just happened?"
There was a scene in one of the animated shows a bit like that. Joker had set up a bomb, and was watching video footage of the Flash trying to defuse it, and then he just disappeared. Joker didn't know what happened, so he rewound the video and ran it super-slowmo, to see Flash just pick the bomb up and run it out of the city.
@@mastermelee2543 Anytime the Joker tries to mess with a hero outside of Batman in the mainline comics he is generally quickly put in his place. The Flash neutralized him instantly, Superman humiliated him, and he wouldn't survive an attempt to mess with Wonder Woman. Batman is ironically the only one who treats Joker seriously which works out perfectly for the Joker because he hates nothing more than not being taken seriously.
Second only to the time that Superman showed up with a big smile, laughed at his joke, told him he'd already found and disarmed all the bombs, and then when Joker tried to push him, Supes lowkey mentioned that he doesn't have a "No Kill" rule, it's more like a guideline. And they'd never find the body. There'd be nothing to find.
Rogues: No. You will doom our entire timeline. Rookie: What, are they the governor of time? Rogues: No, the rest will rip time apart trying to stop you. We survived the last time by luck. WE will stop you if you try.
More like don’t kill anyone, Flash’s rogues have a strict code that Captain Cold uses to keep everyone in line. The biggest rule is no killing, especially women and kids. If you break this rule you get harshly dealt with
"With Superman, _you're going to jail!_ With Batman, you may show up with a busted up face and some broken bones! But, with Flash, it's like he comes at you from this position that _he knows_ you could be better! It's just makes ya _feel bad,_ y'know?" I call it the "what if your beloved grandmother could see you now" method of crime fighting, lol
Or Flash just dumps you in the middle of a desert. in Africa. And with *no* supplies. This literally happens in this very issue when Condiment King tries to rob a bank. Flash doesn't come back for him either, it took CK a literal year to get back home.

The rogues have gotten so good at quick decisions and planning to counter the flash that they are like 2 storylines away from being an anti speedster squad
fun Flash fact: there is in fact a group of cops in the future (pre-Flashpoint was their last appearance afaik) called the Renegades that are just cop versions of the Rogue's, set to battle Eobard Thawne.
Spelled "Rogue" The U comes after the G. Having the U before the G. You spell the French word for "Red". Though The Rouges does have a nice name for a group. Most likely made up of French....uhm...well let us say Criminals. No, wait! Food Critics! Far more evil. MAHAHAHAH!
The average off screen villain fight is hilarious. It’s usually something along the lines of: “Hands where i can see em! Gimme all the money- . . . Where the F am I?!”
The real trick is to pull a slow one on him. He perceives the world as moving in bullet time, all the time. If you move like a sloth, he can't tell you're doing anything.
@@omgitzthunderlol4598The Rogues aren’t indiscriminate with their efforts, which helps. Their goal is always a set objective with clean and concise planning, unlike Batman or Superman villains who just destroy when they feel like it.

I mean the routes have a rule against non necessary kills, which is why most villain speedsters are not allowed in the club. Actually the Rouges are extremely strict with their rules!
I feel like this is why flash villains have such a strict code to follow. Cus they know they are surviving on the fact that the flash knows they have rules so they aren't major threats
Depends. The Classic Rogues? Yes, but characters like Gorilla Grodd, Girder, Magenta, Amethyst Black, Mumur, and some others are ok with Killing People.
@@baligong3592 I'm mostly just on about the rouges since those are his most popular (other than grodd and reverse flash), cus I know grodd has no respect for human life and RF will kill literally anyone if it makes Barry even the slightest bit more miserable
@@baligong3592And he usually takes them far more seriously than Captain Cold. It's an exchange. Flash tolerates their bullshit to a degree, and in return, they follow strict rules and generally keep MOST crime in check. It's like a mafia. Yes, they're harmful, yes they hurt people, yes you stop them, but shit gets worse when they're gone.
What were the 3 main codes for the flash villains? 1. Never kill, injure, or harm anyone trying to stop them. 2. Never deal drugs to kids. 3. Never ever kill any of the Flash
Joker learned the hard way that Gotham is the only place for him. Superman and the Flash don't play around with him Edit to add: I give a damn about the Injustice universe.
Was he locked up in those instances? The way it's worded make it sound like he shrugged and went back to Gotham with him tail between his legs. Regardless of where he was defeated, he should've been knocked out/restrained and thrown in prison for years. In fact, considering the corruption and how often super villains escape in Gotham, it would be even better for him to be locked up ib Metropolis or Central City.
@@amanpreetgill7564Yeah if he has terrible writing to back him up. The very foundation of Injustice is so silly billy. The concept that Superman could be thinking he's fighting Doomsday but somehow Doomsday isn't super strong, super durable, super fast, weighs like a feather, and isnt giving off two heartbeats from Lois and the Baby along with people like Wonder Woman and Flash doing nothing to stop him. Etc. Etc. Yet he still goes full force against him. Also how there's like 5k different ways to ressurect a character when you get to the Justice League level power of DC but no one went "hey Superman, lets put her in a lazarus pit lmao" Also I cant see why Doomsday would be Superman's greatest fear. I would assume it would be something like the death of his parents or maybe causing others to fear him. There's nothing unique about Doomsday compared to anyone thats killed Superman like Zod or what not. I like the games and there's good moments in the comic but nah, everything involving the Joker is terribly handled. I'm sure there's some way it couldve possibly worked but the plan Joker went with and how well it worked was awful.
@@airraverstazI believe the instance he's talking about is a recent one shot comic when Joker tried to blow up Metropolis and Superman absolutely bullied the shit out of him. You can find a reading of the comic by typing "Superman Humbles the Joker" on youtube
Some random villian, "Imma rob Central City!" Flash "Sup, heard you talking smack." Another random villian, "Imma merc the Flash! And have a plan that WILL work!" Literally the entirety of D.C. Universe's Heroes and Villians at their worst, "ArE yOU SurE AbOuT tHaT?!"
One thing I like about The Flash is they (especially Wally) actually cares for and treats his villians with compassion and understanding, no matter what they do.
To be fair, Batman and Superman can also be deeply empathetic when they're written well, especially Bruce. The problem is that B-man and Supes just keep getting writers aiming to be more "dark and 'realistic'" who clearly just want to make a Watchmen issue but know they're never going to get the chance so they'll settle for extra-edgy-angry Batman or losing-all-faith-in-mankind Superman, completely missing the point and heart of the very characters they're writing about. Add that normally either Bruce or Clark are sacrificed on the alter of "Designated Leader of the People Who Are Wrong," in any divide-amongst-the-heroes storyline and you have a Batman who shows no compassion or Superman who's a self-entitled jerk in 3/4 of the recent officially released materials be they animated or print. ....Sorry that turned into a rant. Anyway even among the other heroes Flash IS kind and friendly with his villains, I just hate that poor characterization seems to have robbed a lot of the other heroes of the empathy they originally had. Also, anyone over age 25 who claims they're not thinking at least partially of the JLU scene with Trickster when the topic of, "Flash is the nicest core Justice League member," comes up, is lying.
To be fair, when you can resolve problems as easily and quickly as he can with superspeed, it's easier to keep a chipper attitude in contrast to the non powered people who have to try harder. Not saying that's the only reason he's a good guy, but it helps alot.
@whiteraven181 While I dislike dark edgy Batman, Normal superman is for me so obnoxiously good I dint mind a (well written) darker version. I like empathetic Batman, like with Ace
And the time Riddler showed up in Bart's town and got owned without Bart even knowing who he was. Bombs scattered across an area don't work so great against someone moving faster than the speed of sound.
I want to see a comic where the flash just stops messing around and just fixes everything in an afternoon lol he could just clean up every city and speed all the real villains to jail.
Luthor doesn't go after the Flash because he still remember the beating Barry gave him the last time Lex and Brainiac teamed up to take over the world.
Joker is terrified of Bart Allen (Impulse, Barry’s grandson), he made Joker surrender and flee to Batman for safety. Bart never even fought or realizes Joker was a villain, just thought he was a clown. Annoyed him so much he surrendered.
I like the idea introduced in the Young Justice Universe. Where heros and villians never go after each other on a personal level, there are lines that they don't cross because of self preservation. The Joker attacking the flash on a level that high would totally be a deal breaker.
Being a villain in central city is probably the biggest flex in the hall of doom if they let you in and don't just laugh in your face. The rouges are very tricky and can be extremely dangerous to the point they even scare themselves. Sad thing is pretty much all of the rouges were normal guys who had a chance to drop the life of crime but to an extent the flash being present in their lives has been seen as a sort of challenger in their eyes. Many of them don't even really have a long game in mind if they actually pull off their plans it's just habit for them at this point and they are usually expecting the flash to show up and they try to beat him but they all know how it's gonna pan out every time so they usually aren't even mad when they get caught by him but that's probably mostly due to the fact that the flash is a nice guy and he tries not to physically hurt people and he will even show up for the rouges and help them in their lives as he wants them to just live a normal life and be with their families.
The psttern i seem to find is flash villians understand that idea. They know flash can solve a problem in a second, so if they want to pull something they need to have a plan b, and plan b for the plan b Example, here Jokers plan is simple, just laughing gas bombs and thats it. With batman he doesnt need to plan more than that. But with flash he does If it were someone like trickster, he would set a trap in case flash tries to disperse the laughing gas, or something that activates once he finsishes
The Rogues spend most of their time sitting around thinking "If I had the speed of the Flash, how would I counter this plan?" and then playing 5D chess with themselves for like eight months between gigs, because it takes that much prep to last maybe three seconds against Barry.
@Cryptic0013 and they consistently manage to last minutes. There's a reason that off the clock the routes and flash respect eachother as "if things hit the fan. We work together
which is funny because a big part of jokers deal is that he and the batvills get out because gotham is intrinsically corrupt, in a functioning city he would actually stay in the cell. of course, he's popular and they need him to sell books. but in-universe logic, they would have jurisdiction for a crime committed in central.
@ryanweible9090 plus I've seen people mention that the reason Joker even gets out of Gotham's prisons so much or doesn't get the death penalty is that Jersey, which Gotham is based on, doesn't have the death penalty. Makes me curious how that'd go in other cities if he was arrested and they didn't have those two things in Joker's favor
@@jharris3110It's still super flimsy even at that. The idea that no disgruntled cop or citizen gives him the Lee Harvey Oswald treatment during an arrest is pure "Just don't question it!"
@@jharris3110 The guy has clipped a bunch of cops, including the Commissioner's wife in one timeline. He'd never make it to trial and nobody would care.
Reminds me of a fan theory for the campier Flashes with jokes for rouges; namely that everytime he witness or finds out about a murder he's unable to stop in Central that he gets upset over the Flash goes back in time and erases the baddie from ever existing by ensuring their parents never meet.
The Rogues being generally less vicious than other supervillains plays into this so well. Clever tricks are a better weapon than brutality against a man who can damn near freeze time from his perspective.
Flash is the heart and soul of the DC Universe. As long as there's a Flash running around, there's hope and levity. But as soon as one dies, as soon as that heart and soul is taken, the universe just goes to shit. From that moment, it's on sight around the clock, no mercy no items one stock friendly fire mandatory.
@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvusfr. Rural cops don’t fuck around, cause there’s only a handful of them and are VERY territorial and have to police a bunch of other territorial gun nuts that just itching to use their 12 gauge on someone.
I mean, maybe. But that's not where the big scores are. You could rob the bank in Smallville I guess, but what's the point? You'll get WAY bigger hauls in Gotham, and far more robberies go through there than get interrupted. Batman is usually too busy fighting Bane to prevent him from nuking the ISS or some crazy bullshit to bother with small crimes.
The thing about it the flash cares enough villains to actually give them help. Quiet as it’s kept they somewhat in their twisted way have love/hate relationship with the flash. It’s almost Batman level if he went missing the villains would be emotionally broke.
Same thing happened in that one comic where he tried Metropolis. Superman defused everything and just laughed at him. I always liked that a lot more than whatever Injustice tried to cook up.
Joker: Alright time to set off these bombs in the Flash museum I'm sure it will be a BLAST hehehaha- Flash: *Already disabled all the bombs and sent Joker back to the Asylum as he was pressing the button on the detonator* Joker: What the Jonk?
I just really love the idea that heroes whenever heroes take on another heroes rouges gallery they just stomp it. There is a really great tumblr post about Batman and Spiderman switching cities for a while that suggests that either would completely counter the others villains becuase of their different methods and attitudes.
If you search through the comics, you will find out that most of the flashes Human rogues are just weirdos who came off their meds temporarily. There are actual scenes where the flesh is talking to one of his rogues and asked him if he came off his meds and the dude is like. "Yeah, they make me feel weird."
That’s why Captain Boomerang will ALWAYS have my respect. My guy robbed every bank and jewelry store in Australia at least once and decided to step up his game and come to America. And chose the city with a man so fast he can rewrite the timeline guarding it as the one he’d start robbing. Plus you gotta imagine he’s probably a worse than average runner from having to carry those MASSIVE balls everywhere he goes.
1 frame, the joker smoke starting to disperse, second frame yellow lightning surrounding the joker smoke, third frame joker in gotham with suitcases (the rest of the bombs are in them)
Technically the fifth. Christina Molotava was the fourth. You might even go with the sixth, if you count Jesse Quick being named Wally's successor during Terminal Velocity.
‘You have to be pretty brave to do something in central and key stone city considering you have to deal with 4 flashes and one kid with super strength’ meanwhile Bart Allen the 3rd flash being killed by those same criminals 💀
bonus points for Najubas track , found that album when a lot of things in my life departed- it just captures the meaning of "fleeting moments", probs why it works well on a Flash short, sadly so did artist, rip
The flash lets them, the rogues are almost exclusively mentally ill or wronged in some way, and every flash knows that nothing they do will be something he can't stop or will actually hurt people, so he plays into the delusion while trying to ease them back into a normal life, its kinda like a Play at this point
The reason they're lovable because the Speedsters are all nice people who treat their villains nice. So when Bart Allen was killed everyone were super pissed at them.
The idea that the Flash comics have been a decades long training arc for his villains against an insurmountable foe is kinda genius. They're being pushed to the absolute limit of their abilities, with only the craziest and stupidest motherfuckers continuing on, everyone who gives up being filtered from the fray. The moment they actually manage to kill a speedster is a code red situation, because a team that finally reaches the skill level needed to kill a speedster can kill _anyone._
Joker doesn't mess around with the Flash cause he's a street level villain so he fights against a street level hero. If you think about it Batman could stop 1 of the Rogues at time, maybe 2 or 3 but not the whole team. We saw how Batman villains are never a match for speedsters: when Riddler did the clever thing of going out of Gotham when the No Man's Land occured he went against Impulse, the problem was that Impulse was so fast that he found all of Riddler's bombs in a second and so dumb that he didn't know what a riddle was
Also it's just not as fun for Riddler. He wants to prove he's smarter than people. A lot of Flashes would have no problem admitting that, while still stopping his plans.
@@zehkiel8018 to Riddler's defense he had to choose between staying in Gotham during No Man's Land or just going away in a more safe place where people don't fight for territory and food. He did the smart choice
@@niccoloproia3678 Oh for sure. But that's still really not the city for him. Can't scratch that itch of proving his superiority over other top tier intellects. Maybe he could eventually settle in, but I don't see the rogues taking that kindly, nor do I see him submitting to the rules of criminal activities in Central City.
@@zehkiel8018 i agree, after all Riddler is a Batman villain first and foremost. About the Rogues not liking him i'm not totally convinced, Riddler (when written properly) is usually the less murderous Batman villain after Catwoman. Sure he's a megalomaniacal diva but i don't think the Rogues will despise him more than other (worse) guys operating in Central City like Gorilla Grodd or Abra Kadabra.
Remember back when Impulse had his own series and The Riddler told him he’d put a bomb under someone’s porch somewhere in the city. And then Impulse just handed him the bomb in the next frame.
I dunno, man. Any fan can make this claim about their favorite hero. There are people who can easily argue (or imagine a scenario) that Batman's villains being are far too dangerous for Flash, or Green Lantern's villains being too dangerous for Superman, and so on.
There are 3 different cities inside of the DC Universe that you just do not want to attack as a super villain, the first and main city is a metropolis, you don't fuck with metropolis under any circumstance, or else Superman will show up and give you the old fashioned Superman high 5... The next city is Gotham, you do not fuck with Gotham, Gotham is a city that is riddled with crime, drugs, rape and the worst of the worst, it is so bad to the point to where even the other superheroes, such as the flash will not enter that city, and not just out of respect for Batman, but out of fear... Batman has everything under control and Gotham and is very good at what he does. The third and final Central City home of the mutants. Well, it's kind of obvious why you shouldn't attack Central City, it's literally in left and right, every corner, and there's no telling what's going to happen... And with the 4th speedsters running the show, there's no telling on how far you be able to get with your crime without being caught.
@@Gambit771 do you know how much Batman stops... It's kind of a curse. I'm pretty sure they go over that Gotham is cursed to forever have crime... Batman keeps it to a minimum
Nice fact about flash, is that I bet that if he gets badly hurt, or killed. Not only heroes will hunt you down, the very villains and rogues will also team up to find you.
Flash is the Goodest Boy, it doesn't matter if you can beat or top the Flash - it's a special kind of evil to even think about hurting the one guy who would still give you a chance to do the right thing, even after all the wrong you've done before.
Back in the day the Joker went up against Impulse and Impulse didn't even try to play Joker's game. He didn't even let Joker finish his speech. Impulse simply searched the entire city and found every bomb the Joker had planted before the Joker finished explaining his scheme.
@@SonicForges no it wasn't Injustice. Look up the video Superman Humbles Joker. THE TLDR is Joker shows up to Metropolis, makes threats and Superman just mocks the SHIT outta him. XD
@@DementedClownGuyAlmost like Bats is just a (admittedly very skilled and intelligent) man in a suit. The instant the Joker (also very skilled and intelligent) matches up against a real super, he usually gets punked.
Honestly, this is why I will never consider that TV show garbage with the "Flash" as anything but garbage. I watched one episode and said nope. It's just pure garbage. Everything from the effects, to the storyline. It's all just bottom level crap. At least the animated versions and comics get the flash to show in a great light.
not even batman's villains, anything thats related to batman does not work when they interact with stuff that is outside of gotham, they're just gonna get curb stomped the concept of 'a man surrounded by gods' just does not work, so many stories got ruined bc the writing needs to conform to that notion, its so tiresome
Stop being a Joker + Batman meat rider the only reason he gets away with the stuff he does is because of plot armor why do you think the Batman who laughs killed the whole justice League which is completely retarded when Batman isn't even it's strongest member and couldn't take down someone like Shazam who has no weakness grow up buddy.
Let it not be forgotten that the flash has not just ran through time, universes and dimensions, but literal omniverses and crossed into the marvel universe and somehow enter a race for the fastest one alive wothout evene realizing it. He was so fast the the literally omnipresent god over marvel that is anywhere and everywhere and can see all had no clue how he got the and where he came from
I will always laugh at that one time a villain tried some serious city scale crime, and Flash just took him to the center of a desert to spend weeks trying to reach civilization by foot…

Not the CW flash though haha
Reason why the villains all have agreement with the Flash(es). Let the villains finish their Evil Villainous Monologue. They've worked REALLY REALLY REALLY hard on perfecting it. And knowing the Flash(es). They agreed to it. Because the Flash(es) is/are bro(s) like that.
well, to be fair, most of the Flash villains aren't evil at all lol
@PhilipId Well, they can still have a monologuing. They worked really, really hard on it. So let them speak! It is their right!
There's a great issue of Impulse with The Riddler in it. He says that there's a bomb in the city, and gives Bart his riddle. Bart zips off, checks every building in the city, and asks Riddler if he meant this bomb, and hands it to him. Then Riddler tells him he has a second bomb, and, before he can even tell the second riddle, Bart hands him that bomb too, telling him he found it while looking for the first one. 😂

Sounds like something out of harley quinn
its funnier if thats the case cause it implies the joker is specifically bruce's problem. ehhhh Bruce you lost your nemisis *pat pat*
There was a scene in one of the animated shows a bit like that. Joker had set up a bomb, and was watching video footage of the Flash trying to defuse it, and then he just disappeared. Joker didn't know what happened, so he rewound the video and ran it super-slowmo, to see Flash just pick the bomb up and run it out of the city.
@@mastermelee2543 Anytime the Joker tries to mess with a hero outside of Batman in the mainline comics he is generally quickly put in his place. The Flash neutralized him instantly, Superman humiliated him, and he wouldn't survive an attempt to mess with Wonder Woman. Batman is ironically the only one who treats Joker seriously which works out perfectly for the Joker because he hates nothing more than not being taken seriously.
Second only to the time that Superman showed up with a big smile, laughed at his joke, told him he'd already found and disarmed all the bombs, and then when Joker tried to push him, Supes lowkey mentioned that he doesn't have a "No Kill" rule, it's more like a guideline. And they'd never find the body. There'd be nothing to find.

2. Never deal drugs to kids.
3. Never ever kill any of the Flash
Thats the code for The Rogues, others like Reverse-Flash obviously don't follow it
@@rotciv557 right...its only just the Rogues. Reverse-Flash is just .... awful.
I think Rule 3 is "Focus on the score" and not killing speedsters was the unspoken Rule 0.
I thought that Rule 2 was not to take drugs, which can lead you into breaking Rule 1 more easily.
Joker learned the hard way that Gotham is the only place for him. Superman and the Flash don't play around with him
Edit to add: I give a damn about the Injustice universe.
So true, I read that comic. No hero in their right mind would tolerate the Joker as much as Batman.
Was he locked up in those instances? The way it's worded make it sound like he shrugged and went back to Gotham with him tail between his legs. Regardless of where he was defeated, he should've been knocked out/restrained and thrown in prison for years. In fact, considering the corruption and how often super villains escape in Gotham, it would be even better for him to be locked up ib Metropolis or Central City.
@dede12301 we learnt from injustice that Joker could ruin everything superman stands for in a heart beat.
@@amanpreetgill7564Yeah if he has terrible writing to back him up. The very foundation of Injustice is so silly billy. The concept that Superman could be thinking he's fighting Doomsday but somehow Doomsday isn't super strong, super durable, super fast, weighs like a feather, and isnt giving off two heartbeats from Lois and the Baby along with people like Wonder Woman and Flash doing nothing to stop him. Etc. Etc. Yet he still goes full force against him. Also how there's like 5k different ways to ressurect a character when you get to the Justice League level power of DC but no one went "hey Superman, lets put her in a lazarus pit lmao"
Also I cant see why Doomsday would be Superman's greatest fear. I would assume it would be something like the death of his parents or maybe causing others to fear him. There's nothing unique about Doomsday compared to anyone thats killed Superman like Zod or what not.
I like the games and there's good moments in the comic but nah, everything involving the Joker is terribly handled. I'm sure there's some way it couldve possibly worked but the plan Joker went with and how well it worked was awful.
@@airraverstazI believe the instance he's talking about is a recent one shot comic when Joker tried to blow up Metropolis and Superman absolutely bullied the shit out of him. You can find a reading of the comic by typing "Superman Humbles the Joker" on youtube

One thing I like about The Flash is they (especially Wally) actually cares for and treats his villians with compassion and understanding, no matter what they do.
To be fair, Batman and Superman can also be deeply empathetic when they're written well, especially Bruce. The problem is that B-man and Supes just keep getting writers aiming to be more "dark and 'realistic'" who clearly just want to make a Watchmen issue but know they're never going to get the chance so they'll settle for extra-edgy-angry Batman or losing-all-faith-in-mankind Superman, completely missing the point and heart of the very characters they're writing about. Add that normally either Bruce or Clark are sacrificed on the alter of "Designated Leader of the People Who Are Wrong," in any divide-amongst-the-heroes storyline and you have a Batman who shows no compassion or Superman who's a self-entitled jerk in 3/4 of the recent officially released materials be they animated or print.
....Sorry that turned into a rant. Anyway even among the other heroes Flash IS kind and friendly with his villains, I just hate that poor characterization seems to have robbed a lot of the other heroes of the empathy they originally had. Also, anyone over age 25 who claims they're not thinking at least partially of the JLU scene with Trickster when the topic of, "Flash is the nicest core Justice League member," comes up, is lying.
Barry is more empathetic towards villains not wally, dcau based wally on barry, they even gave him his job as a forensic scientist
To be fair, when you can resolve problems as easily and quickly as he can with superspeed, it's easier to keep a chipper attitude in contrast to the non powered people who have to try harder. Not saying that's the only reason he's a good guy, but it helps alot.

Joker is terrified of Bart Allen (Impulse, Barry’s grandson), he made Joker surrender and flee to Batman for safety.
Bart never even fought or realizes Joker was a villain, just thought he was a clown. Annoyed him so much he surrendered.
One of my favorite episodes of btas is the one that introduced the Creeper, who was basically Freakazoid in a feather boa and speedo.
I like the idea introduced in the Young Justice Universe. Where heros and villians never go after each other on a personal level, there are lines that they don't cross because of self preservation. The Joker attacking the flash on a level that high would totally be a deal breaker.
Being a villain in central city is probably the biggest flex in the hall of doom if they let you in and don't just laugh in your face. The rouges are very tricky and can be extremely dangerous to the point they even scare themselves. Sad thing is pretty much all of the rouges were normal guys who had a chance to drop the life of crime but to an extent the flash being present in their lives has been seen as a sort of challenger in their eyes. Many of them don't even really have a long game in mind if they actually pull off their plans it's just habit for them at this point and they are usually expecting the flash to show up and they try to beat him but they all know how it's gonna pan out every time so they usually aren't even mad when they get caught by him but that's probably mostly due to the fact that the flash is a nice guy and he tries not to physically hurt people and he will even show up for the rouges and help them in their lives as he wants them to just live a normal life and be with their families.
Definitely an odd dynamic. They're more like rivals than villains, the Flash pushing them to improve and them inspiring the Fladh's creativity.
The psttern i seem to find is flash villians understand that idea. They know flash can solve a problem in a second, so if they want to pull something they need to have a plan b, and plan b for the plan b
Example, here Jokers plan is simple, just laughing gas bombs and thats it. With batman he doesnt need to plan more than that. But with flash he does
If it were someone like trickster, he would set a trap in case flash tries to disperse the laughing gas, or something that activates once he finsishes
Make the plan, execute the plan, expect the plan to have off the rails, and throw away the plan!
@@BaronSengir1008and make sure no women and children are anywhere NEAR the remains of the now burning plan
The Rogues spend most of their time sitting around thinking "If I had the speed of the Flash, how would I counter this plan?" and then playing 5D chess with themselves for like eight months between gigs, because it takes that much prep to last maybe three seconds against Barry.
@Cryptic0013 and they consistently manage to last minutes. There's a reason that off the clock the routes and flash respect eachother as "if things hit the fan. We work together
Love how flash sends the joker back to GC instead of like, arresting him or something lol
which is funny because a big part of jokers deal is that he and the batvills get out because gotham is intrinsically corrupt, in a functioning city he would actually stay in the cell. of course, he's popular and they need him to sell books. but in-universe logic, they would have jurisdiction for a crime committed in central.
@ryanweible9090 plus I've seen people mention that the reason Joker even gets out of Gotham's prisons so much or doesn't get the death penalty is that Jersey, which Gotham is based on, doesn't have the death penalty.
Makes me curious how that'd go in other cities if he was arrested and they didn't have those two things in Joker's favor
flash probably: i missed the part where he's my problem.
@@jharris3110It's still super flimsy even at that.

@@jharris3110 The guy has clipped a bunch of cops, including the Commissioner's wife in one timeline. He'd never make it to trial and nobody would care.
Imagine if The Flash had the mindset of the Punisher.
Joker: I think I'll pay Central City a vis-- (knife goes through head)
Imagine standing on a building in Central City and suddenly standing back in Gotham with your shoes tied together.
I thought it was because he's so quippy and Joker can't handle anyone being funnier than him.
Before the Joker can even land a punchline lol
Reminds me of a fan theory for the campier Flashes with jokes for rouges; namely that everytime he witness or finds out about a murder he's unable to stop in Central that he gets upset over the Flash goes back in time and erases the baddie from ever existing by ensuring their parents never meet.
The Rogues being generally less vicious than other supervillains plays into this so well. Clever tricks are a better weapon than brutality against a man who can damn near freeze time from his perspective.
Yet in injustice (the movie), the writers seem to forget these HAPPENS!

I just really love the idea that heroes whenever heroes take on another heroes rouges gallery they just stomp it.
There is a really great tumblr post about Batman and Spiderman switching cities for a while that suggests that either would completely counter the others villains becuase of their different methods and attitudes.
If you search through the comics, you will find out that most of the flashes Human rogues are just weirdos who came off their meds temporarily. There are actual scenes where the flesh is talking to one of his rogues and asked him if he came off his meds and the dude is like. "Yeah, they make me feel weird."
"Speedsters only lose to bad writing."

‘You have to be pretty brave to do something in central and key stone city considering you have to deal with 4 flashes and one kid with super strength’ meanwhile Bart Allen the 3rd flash being killed by those same criminals 💀
When the Flash both stops to talks and take care of the situation 😂. Take notes CW.
If anyone wants the song used, it's "Luv Sic Part 3" by Nujabes. Goated song.
bonus points for Najubas track , found that album when a lot of things in my life departed- it just captures the meaning of "fleeting moments", probs why it works well on a Flash short, sadly so did artist, rip
Moments like this makes you even wonder how the Rogues even do crime at all
The flash lets them, the rogues are almost exclusively mentally ill or wronged in some way, and every flash knows that nothing they do will be something he can't stop or will actually hurt people, so he plays into the delusion while trying to ease them back into a normal life, its kinda like a Play at this point
Imagine if the Joker gained the speed force
He would probably hate it right off the bat(heh), because it would make everything to *EASY*
Honestly I love the Wally West Flash that was on the Justice League animated series the most
You got to be a special kind of crazy to go after the flash ( except the rouges of course)
Oh no, you're right. They're just that special kind of crazy.
*wasn't expecting canti to be talking about the DC universe*
Just like when Joker set bombs in metropolis and super confronted the Joker while he already tracked and disarmed all his bombs.
The reason they're lovable because the Speedsters are all nice people who treat their villains nice. So when Bart Allen was killed everyone were super pissed at them.
The idea that the Flash comics have been a decades long training arc for his villains against an insurmountable foe is kinda genius.
They're being pushed to the absolute limit of their abilities, with only the craziest and stupidest motherfuckers continuing on, everyone who gives up being filtered from the fray.
The moment they actually manage to kill a speedster is a code red situation, because a team that finally reaches the skill level needed to kill a speedster can kill _anyone._
Joker doesn't mess around with the Flash cause he's a street level villain so he fights against a street level hero.
If you think about it Batman could stop 1 of the Rogues at time, maybe 2 or 3 but not the whole team.
We saw how Batman villains are never a match for speedsters: when Riddler did the clever thing of going out of Gotham when the No Man's Land occured he went against Impulse, the problem was that Impulse was so fast that he found all of Riddler's bombs in a second and so dumb that he didn't know what a riddle was
I get what you are saying but I have to disagree. I believe Batman can deal with the rouges.
Also it's just not as fun for Riddler. He wants to prove he's smarter than people. A lot of Flashes would have no problem admitting that, while still stopping his plans.

There are 3 different cities inside of the DC Universe that you just do not want to attack as a super villain, the first and main city is a
metropolis, you don't fuck with metropolis under any circumstance, or else Superman will show up and give you the old fashioned Superman high 5...
The next city is Gotham, you do not fuck with Gotham, Gotham is a city that is riddled with crime, drugs, rape and the worst of the worst, it is so bad to the point to where even the other superheroes, such as the flash will not enter that city, and not just out of respect for Batman, but out of fear... Batman has everything under control and Gotham and is very good at what he does.
The third and final Central City home of the mutants. Well, it's kind of obvious why you shouldn't attack Central City, it's literally in left and right, every corner, and there's no telling what's going to happen... And with the 4th speedsters running the show, there's no telling on how far you be able to get with your crime without being caught.
Batman does not have control of Gotham City.
You even described it as a mess.
@@Gambit771 do you know how much Batman stops...
It's kind of a curse. I'm pretty sure they go over that Gotham is cursed to forever have crime... Batman keeps it to a minimum
Nice fact about flash, is that I bet that if he gets badly hurt, or killed. Not only heroes will hunt you down, the very villains and rogues will also team up to find you.
Flash is the Goodest Boy, it doesn't matter if you can beat or top the Flash - it's a special kind of evil to even think about hurting the one guy who would still give you a chance to do the right thing, even after all the wrong you've done before.
because he only cares about batman.
Everybody knows he's fast. Was this necessary?
Back in the day the Joker went up against Impulse and Impulse didn't even try to play Joker's game. He didn't even let Joker finish his speech. Impulse simply searched the entire city and found every bomb the Joker had planted before the Joker finished explaining his scheme.
Never been this early. Again, this is why I love the Flash! He is able to stop the Joker when even Supes can't!
Hooo boy you need to catch up on your reading. Superman HAS punked the Joker once and punked him HARD.
@@DementedClownGuy Was this on Earth 1? I'm not counting Injustice.
@@SonicForges no it wasn't Injustice. Look up the video Superman Humbles Joker. THE TLDR is Joker shows up to Metropolis, makes threats and Superman just mocks the SHIT outta him. XD
@@DementedClownGuy I'll check it out, thanks!
@@DementedClownGuyAlmost like Bats is just a (admittedly very skilled and intelligent) man in a suit. The instant the Joker (also very skilled and intelligent) matches up against a real super, he usually gets punked.
Honestly, this is why I will never consider that TV show garbage with the "Flash" as anything but garbage.
I watched one episode and said nope.
It's just pure garbage. Everything from the effects, to the storyline. It's all just bottom level crap.
At least the animated versions and comics get the flash to show in a great light.
You don't mess with a friend who's never late.
I like how The Flash is a universe-level superhero, but he only protects his own city lmao
Damn No comment
Is because batman's villain are pathetic. They don't work without batman
Based.
not even batman's villains, anything thats related to batman does not work when they interact with stuff that is outside of gotham, they're just gonna get curb stomped
the concept of 'a man surrounded by gods' just does not work, so many stories got ruined bc the writing needs to conform to that notion, its so tiresome
You mean they're grounded and dont have to have a cgi super battle to portray their strengths? Lmao
Joker:aight I'm out.
Yeah but the Fact is Joker can kill anyone he wants to. Even Superman. Probably even Darkseid. Nobodys above the Joker. Except for Magneto
Stop being a Joker + Batman meat rider the only reason he gets away with the stuff he does is because of plot armor why do you think the Batman who laughs killed the whole justice League which is completely retarded when Batman isn't even it's strongest member and couldn't take down someone like Shazam who has no weakness grow up buddy.
Isn't he just some guy though?
@@diegoconnolly5317 yeah im very confused why this person is saying that lol
The glazing is crazy
Yeah Magneto no-diffs Joker easily. One of the most unbalanced DC matchups.
I'm surprised The Trickster didn't show up when Joker did and get into a slapstick fight with him.
Let it not be forgotten that the flash has not just ran through time, universes and dimensions, but literal omniverses and crossed into the marvel universe and somehow enter a race for the fastest one alive wothout evene realizing it. He was so fast the the literally omnipresent god over marvel that is anywhere and everywhere and can see all had no clue how he got the and where he came from
"why no villain go after the flash?"
Duh, they know they can't catch up
America: "Don't Touch My Boats!"
Villains: "Don't Fuck with Speedsters!"
I will always laugh at that one time a villain tried some serious city scale crime, and Flash just took him to the center of a desert to spend weeks trying to reach civilization by foot…
One Minute War? That's not very long.
