Brave and the Bold: Batman + Alex Trebek!

I can't believe I didn't see this last month.

From Comics Alliance's Great Comics That Never Happened:



And the perfectly believable B&B plotline that explains it:

Quote:
Locked up in Arkham Asylum since his last devious caper, the Riddler has had nothing to do but plot revenge... and watch America's favorite quiz show, Jeopardy! His rage has only built as he has seen his intellectual inferiors rack up the cash totals that he's never been able to score with his life of crime, and now that he's free, he's going to settle the score with the television institution. Unless a contestant can rack up never-before-seen perfect score of $566,400 in a special live broadcast, a group of hidden bombs will destroy Gotham City!

The only thing that can stand in the way of complete destruction is the most off-beat team-up of all: The razor-sharp intellect of Batman and the unflappable Canadian game-show hosting skills of TV's Alex Trebek! Will a few well-chosen categories be enough to save the day, or will Trebek and Batman be facing... Final Jeopardy!?


Statesmonkey Sez: Lighten up! It's a game, for Lincoln's sake!
Also: Six years of casual play begins to look an awful lot like one year of hardcore play.

I deem this...amusing. Yes, highly amusing.

I'd totally buy this comic if it really got made.

It's the stunned look on the face of contestant #2 that makes it for me.

Plus it makes me wonder what categories were chosen in Double Jeopardy.

Bumbershoots?
Nothing to Fear?
Fictional Detectives?
Brrr-rr-rrr?

I don't see why he's so stunned. If you're lined up to be on the next Jeopardy and one of the other contestants is Batman, you either hang yourself the night before or bring your autograph book

To me the expression looks more like a look of utter defeat, that man knows there's nothing he can do, no matter how hard he tries, it doesn't matter. He's trying to bring up some happy memories or go to his happy place, but he can't. The only thing playing through his mind is how Batman is whooping his butt in Jeopardy, and the only thing he can do is sit there and take it.

If Sean Connery was in it as well it would be magic.
