BATMAN-81-THE JOKER’S LAST LAUGH
BATMAN-81-THE JOKER’S LAST LAUGH
For the second time a henchman is played by a handsome man,
only this time he’s supposed to be a robot. The Joker employs two main robots
and one at the bank giving out counterfeit bills. He’s also using a comic book
company named Penthouse? What? Are we also to believe the Joker has placed not
only a transmitter (a cufflink or a button is one thing and believable, just
about) and a wire all around Gordon’s body to his leg? What’s more the plot,
other than that, seems acceptable until Bruce Wayne seems to trust “Mr.
Whiteface” to counterfeit money for him in a plot to capture Joker via Robin
who has to do the Batfight on his own and he does pretty good until …he’s
smashed into a table by the two robots at extra power. Bruce’s efforts to help
are ridiculous and the whole bat fight falls apart. As for Bruce Wayne
pretending he doesn’t know who Joker is? Does the movie here count as having
happened? In that Bruce was kidnapped by Joker. Is there any continuity any
longer? Robin’s predicament being pressed as a comic book into a comic book and
with Joker making his robots force Bruce to do it…is a good one. Burt’s problem
seems to have grown exponentially here and oh my, we get a good look at
everything Burt Ward.
An okay episode but the show strains credibility and
continuity by making us believe Joker believes Bruce Wayne. It seems as if
Bruce and Joker NEVER met.
The scenes of Joker and his girl trying to find the Bat Cave
are interesting enough. Love the little model and the note Batman leaves for
him!
