Depends on whether Zee wants the boy herself. If not and this is just something she set up to get Karen laid and she has fun watching, it's simply voyeurism.

Then it's either cuck (if she wanted one or both to herself) or just polyamory (if she's fine with sharing).

Uno reverse cuck would be if she wanted one of them and was planning to make the other watch, but then they fuck each other and leave her out.

They keep leaking into adaptations because they're the villains in the only comic book titled "Batman #1" that has come out in the last 20 years. If that book had Polka Dot Man as a villain, you bet your ass he'd be getting a boost in adaptations too.

It's the same reason why Marvel seems hellbent on adapting Daredevil's recent arcs and newly added characters that barely existed for a few years for his new series, they want the comic sales boost.

Is Batman lore so stagnant that villains from 2011 are still regarded as new and fresh? I can't think of a single notable change in the batman mythos in over a decade other than court of owls or punchline, neither in which are remarkable. And Tim has had half a dozen costume reboots since then. Remember when they setup catwoman wedding only to pussy out last second for sake of status quo? When are they gonna do something bold again? Unironically the only thing driving me to pick up the comic anymore is to see how the fuck prime earth is handling the messy fallout from the three jokers continuity. Joker being absurdly obsessed with batman to the point of curing his trauma (and protecting his identity, as seen in the deadly duo finale) is the goofy kino I love to see.

Batman who laughs added nothing of note long-term to the batman mythos. All it did was confirm stuff we already knew or seen, like joker/batman team up. I guess we got characters like bluebird but her character design is fucking atrocious. And signal as a concept is absurd.
If they're gonna be uninspired-statusquo-y they might as well minmax their money and release a batman/joker team up ongoing. Seeing as those are the ones that make money. (in reality, I'd like there to be more female villains. Instead every one of them is a bisexual antihero now. Which is funny, considering Joker is the one gargling batman's cock for the past 80 years)

I just caught up on years worth of Batman comics and I feel like nothing fucking happened. I want some fun scenarios that aren't just restricted to elseworld stories. New (interesting) female villains, leaning more into unconventional team ups (longterm so we see character dynamics actually change/grow, instead of one offs to sell copies). I liked how Bruce learned his parents weren't as clean as he thought, but it really feels like we haven't seen much interesting things since. Since then, all we've been getting is shit like Jason Todd lingering on his angst and not killing joker for the 200th time.

The point is that Batman comics are far from stagnated even if you are reeing about them, Barbatos, Batkek, Punchline and even Kiteman new personality, Spider-Man in the other hand got nothing new ever since the first spider-verse story nor is the Fantastic 4 or Flash, Captain America or Namor

Are you up to date on several ongoings? What's your opinion on Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing, Batman & The Joker: The Deady Duo? The latter's finale just leaked.

im up to date on Batman, and am 1 issue behind on Detective.
I didnt have interest in B&J:DD or J:TMWSL, i want to read Batman comics, not joker comics.

I liked Failsafe story, and how it ended. art was dope, but i felt like the use of Zurr-En-Ahr was a LITTLE cheap. Morrison did it so well and i felt like the reason for the recent use of the character was just TO bring Zurr-En-Ahr back, not becuase Bruce couldn't deal w Failsafe. I mean, yeah, he was fucked up with the Selena thing and the FEAR STATE but it didnt seem like enough to make Zurr-En-Arh come out.

The current Bat-Man of Gotham is mid. its like a forced else-world story.

DC's continuity policies are really not as strict as people think they are. Plenty of Black Label shit is meant to be canon. The reason Three Jokers has to broadly "canon" is that the mystery was set up in canon Darkseid War and referenced in Metal. It's the only pay-off. Otherwise Batman just forgot about it.

With the current Bqatman title, i'm thinking its gonna lead to Bruce coming back to his world after its been altered or updadted with this new Dawn of Heros reboot DC books is doing. I have little hope in it being good, as I think it'll be choking with woke shit, but I hope we get "our" Bruce coming back to that world and acting the same as he always had, and in doing so becomes that scary harsh Batman who used to be. I personally always enjoyed the books when Bruces narcissistic way of operating pushes people away as he deals with cases in his way. What do you t8hk will happen?

Is Batman lore so stagnant that villains from 2011 are still regarded as new and fresh? I can't think of a single notable change in the batman mythos in over a decade other than court of owls or punchline, neither in which are remarkable. And Tim has had half a dozen costume reboots since then. Remember when they setup catwoman wedding only to pussy out last second for sake of status quo? When are they gonna do something bold again? Unironically the only thing driving me to pick up the comic anymore is to see how the fuck prime earth is handling the messy fallout from the three jokers continuity.

Like the others said, Penguin is just one guy, and making him that much richer wouldn't really be enough to explain Gotham's constant shitty state.
Also, I'd argue it goes against his character to have that much control over Gotham, specially if Batman is constantly fighting him and putting a stop to his plans.
That said, has there ever been a story about Penguin and the Court? I feel like there’s some potential there, like, Oswald is still old money after all, but he's always been a kind of outcast from all the Gotham elites for one reason or another, maybe the Court denied him membership at some point?
I also feel like it's only a matter of time before someone writes a story where Oswald does a hostile takeover on the Court and turns it into the Court of Penguins or something.

There are masks and weird rituals irl though. Should be understood as an extension of the rich families trying to maintain their power thing and that isn't some secret mystery about bloodlines, organizing wealth dynastically just makes sense when you get to a certain level, but there's always been a lot of overlap between the upper class and weird magical rites, fraternal orders, secret societies, and mystical philosophies.

If you wanna really go insane, read Batman Year One again, the first volume in particular, and then read a (real) book called Programmed to Kill by Dave McGowan.

Grew up reading all that stuff so I'm biased but I think it was a great era.

The events actually felt like they were building something and being planned out in a coherent way (they never are building to anything because it's Big 2 comics but it felt like that). You had less continuity heavy stuff like Runaways that was really good. Was definitely too edgy though lol, Penance had to be the cringiest character since the 90s.

There are masks and weird rituals irl though. Should be understood as an extension of the rich families trying to maintain their power thing and that isn't some secret mystery about bloodlines, organizing wealth dynastically just makes sense when you get to a certain level, but there's always been a lot of overlap between the upper class and weird magical rites, fraternal orders, secret societies, and mystical philosophies.

You answered your own question. The world runs on money and bloodlines, that's all it takes. If a bunch of rich faggots think that they matter, then they'll make it so. Or should I say made it so. That's literally the world that we live in. As to their impact on Gotham, yeah, you got me there. I think the Court of Owls is the reason why there's so much crime in Gotham, they probably pull the strings on everything, maybe they have secret contacts in law enforcement and the mob that peddle drugs, like the CIA and DEA does. Or maybe they pass laws that just kinda breed a criminal environment. I don't know, when dealing with fictional secret societies, you kinda already have to be schizo to fill in the intricacies of how they work. It's all based on your beliefs. In other words, Synder's a fucking hack and wants the reader to figure something out by applying outside knowledge that may or may not even apply to the Court of Owls because he's a lazy shit or a pussy that doesn't want to damage his future career of writing convoluted bullshit.

Really what I think it comes down to is the the LoA(by design) doesn't really have a consistent visual gimmick.
The Talons being basically anti-Batman(abused as it is conceptually) frankly just looks cooler to normies than the generic martial artists that generally make up the LoA.

On that note, it surprises me Frank Miller never used the LoA in any of his Batwork. Considering made the Persian Immortals resemble ninjas in 300, I'm surprised he never had a similar idea for the League. Especially considering he's a student of Neal adams. Maybe he thought he already said what he wanted with the Hand over at Marvel?
 Making the League more Middle eastern themed assassins instead of plain ninjas they usually show up as would go a long way. Something more Assasin's creed.

The Court of Owls and the twist with Haly's Circus was originally planned by Scott Snyder for his DickBats run in Detective Comics. He started hinting at it in the very first issue.

>When I was thinking of it initially as a smaller story, I knew it might have something to do with Dick Grayson back when I was doing Detective Comics. It never quite came together as a Dick Grayson story. It was nothing like how it turned out for Bruce, but I began thinking about a way in which I could have an organization that sort of [preyed] on kids in the circus come after Dick.

>Kyle and I, when he took on Nightwing, we had been friends since we had already done Batman: Gates of Gotham together with Mike Marts before the 'New 52.' When I was doing Detective, we really became close during that period. He was coming into superhero comics around the same time I was. He's a terrific guy, terrific writer. We're still quite close. It was really such a collaborative effort. He was very supportive of the things that I was doing on Batman, and it was a matter of figuring out which pieces fit best where. How much to give in Dick Grayson's story? How much to keep in the Bruce story? It was a really positive experience.

People just want to be contrarian with DKR, but Year One though has some weird, kinda clunky pacing issues that hold it back from being the masterpiece a lot of people say it is. Like I read Year One after DKR and it certainly didn't grip me as much. Like it's not bad, but still.

The characters don't really fit at all in Batman lore.

So, they're Gotham's Illuminati elite who have secretly been running the show for years. Except they did nothing when the Falcone and Maroni mobs controlled the city for years. They did nothing about the psycho supervillains bombing their city. They only got upset about Batman undermining their power ten years into his career. But yeah sure, they're the real power in Gotham all this time somehow.

It also just changes the tone of Batman comics. Gotham isn't just the way it is because of structural issues and organized crime and corruption and highly contingent events arising out of the urban chaos and building on itself. Nah, it was some Dan Brown shit, some secret grand conspiracy that has been directing events for years unnoticed. That's way less cool than the world just being a messy place (and maybe slight hints of a supernatural disposition toward generating madness).

I hate these boring fucks. I hate that they keep leaking into adaptations. They are one of the worst contributions to the Batman lore in decades. They are not interesting, or cool, or intimidating. They're the most unimaginative and generic secret society imaginable. I'm sick of them, I don't want to see them ever again.

[Assistant]
It's a stupid concept that, when you actually think about it for more than 5 mins, is stupid and doesn't work
>They own Gotham
Okay, HOW? Where do we see their influence? Their impact on Gotham? This is just a bunch of rich old assholes putting on bird masks pretending they matter.
>Undead ninja Talons
How is this interesting? We already have the League of Assassins.
>No leader or people of interest in their organization
There's no "face" to this organization, no central antagonist.
>We've always been around, you just haven't noticed
So much for the world's greatest detective

Real people don't actually make faces like this

It's not an exaggeration based anything real, let alone relatable

It's just an "animation expression" we take for granted because we've seen it 1000 times before
