    Dive into DC Podcast: Joker

    Arthur just wanted to make people laugh but people couldn’t relate to him. People felt uncomfortable around Arthur, and he became an outcast. He was a product of his environment. Gotham was a city drowning in darkness and garbage.  Arthur needed help. The money had run out for the therapy program he desperately needed, and he had lost his job. The most revered and influential man in Gotham had abandoned him and his mother to wade through this chaos alone. Even though his role models have failed him he will soon become a legend in Gotham. People will rise up and commit crimes in his name. Join Silver Vox and Green Butterfly as we discuss the 2019 film that gave us a new perspective on this pivotal character.

    Dive into DC Podcast: Batman: The Killing Joke

    It only takes one bad day to make an ordinary man go insane. He just wants to raise his family in a better neighborhood. That is what motivates the failed comedian to help The Red Hood Gang break into the playing card factory next to the chemical plant. The police then inform him that his pregnant wife is dead. The gang will not let him back out of the plan. In order to escape being captured by the police he jumps into a vat of chemical waste. The man that emerges is forever changed. In one day, his life was forever changed. Now he seeks to do the same to Barbara Gordon and her father the Commissioner.  This story is no laughing matter. Join Silver Vox and Green Butterfly as we dive into the madness that gave birth to the Joker. Let’s discuss Alan Moore’s story Batman: The Killing Joke. Cougar's Comic Corner: Batman Three Jokers and The Joker's Comedy Chaos (The Adventures of Batgirl and Supergirl) We ADORE Feedback!  Get your DC-thoughts over to us in written or voice-recorded form at diveintodc@gmail.com! Next time on Dive into DC Podcast: Joker (2019) Forever alone in a crowd, failed comedian Arthur Fleck seeks connection as he walks the streets of Gotham City. Arthur wears two masks -- the one he paints for his day job as a clown, and the guise he projects in a futile attempt to feel like he's part of the world around him. Isolated, bullied and disregarded by society, Fleck begins a slow descent into madness as he transforms into the criminal mastermind known as the Joker.
