Cookout at Scott and Barda's


Many of you probably spent the 4th at cookouts. I hope it was better than the cookout that Scott and Barda Free had a few years ago. How bad? Well, the Joker shows up. Hey, this is my first post so I hope I didn't screw it up.
This is 7 pages from the 37 page Justice League International Annual 2. The whole issue is cracktastic and was probably posted on the SD.

So Scott and Barda want to have their JLI buddies over for a cookout but poor Scott. Apokolips was never like this.



Come on Barda, you must have had seen a weenie at least once. And could that woman rock a bikini or what.
Elsewhere there are two stories involving the JLI team. Tora and Bea are trying auditioning to be hookers models (you have to see the outfits). Booster and Ted are cooking up ways to make such extra cash. Oh, and the Joker is going to meet some Russians about a tank.

Back at the Free home Scott has got some manly help to build the grill.



Meanwhile it gets even crazier. Ted and Booster get jobs as repo men.  And the Joker is at McDonalds with the Russians. But guess what Ted and Boost are repo'ng? The Joker's Tank. Telling you best issue EVAH.

Back at the Free's house



Weenies,weenies, weenies!

Bea and Tora don't become models and head over to the cookout. Booster and Ted drive the tank over. So the gang's all here and it's time to Partay!



But uh oh the Joker wants his tank and shows up at the Free's to steal it. But no one knows how to drive it.



Oh boy is Barda pissssed. Hide your weenies!



Barda and Jon destroy the tank. It's so bad that the Joker freaks and says he wants to go back Arkham. And look there is his ride.



Oh, come on Bats, try a weenie. Or at least drop off the six pack of what ever cheap beer you bought.

I love the part where she's all, "ZOMG, did I burn the food? Oh never mind, the hubby just blew himself up again, the putz."

The sad thing about this, though, is that it was almost certainly the story that immediately preceded A Death in the Family in continuity.

And Batman let the Joker get away.

. . .

You do realize A Death In The Family BEGINS with the Joker escaping from Arkham.

In fact, it and Killing Joke occurring so close together probably jump-started the revolving door idea of Arkham in a lot of writer's minds.

Seriously, WTF? He passed up an easy Joker-arrest because he wasn't "in the mood" for dealing with him? I get that this is supposed to be a humourous story, not SRS BSNS, but still. What exactly would be the right mood for capturing deranged homicidal tricksters? Cheerful? Pensive? Sardonic?

In all fairness, there are a dozen other heroes present. Mr. Miracle and Barda have access to boom-tube tech. Anyone of them could safely deliver Joker to the proper authorities.

Batman's just saving himself a head ache ;)

Let's see--Robin died Batman 427-28, around December 1988...this issue was summer 1988...oh shit.

Giffen has a habit of doing this: see also Sue Dibny, Super-Buddies, and why Brad Meltzer should be tortured. Like Starlin is the guy who kills superheroes, Giffen is the guy who inadvertently marks them for death.

I remember this. This single issue was an example of everything that was right about the Giffen League.

Though the weenie gag gets old in two minutes.

You know, I'm no cook, but most kitchens before a get-together this big would have a lot more food in them.
