The Batman and The Joker: Absolute Opposites, Flipsides of the Same Coin... Mirror Images??

Thanks to zhinxy for donating a couple of these scans!Much is made of the compelling and intriguing dichotomy between Batman and Joker. How they each present a warped reflection of the other; perfect in their opposition, how diametrically they are motivated and compelled

The Joker may say that Bats has no sense of humor, but I notice something here: when the Joker dresses up in drag, it's funny- but when Batman dresses up in drag, it's effing *hysterical*.

It really is. He's completely into it. Just goes right for it!

That's Alfred's acting lessons right there. Of course, once you've spent years dressed as a giant bat, maybe something relatively commonplace like drag is a cakewalk.

You have made me snort like a piggie.

That's all I ask!

I happen to look quite lovely with a floral-print polyester-blend skirt flapping around my ankles, thank you very much.

You won't get any argument from me on that, Mistah J! :)

Who says Brucie has no sense of humor?

I don't know why, but that last panel of Batman-as-a-woman, the way Alfred's standing with his arms just flopping like that and what we can see of his expression makes me think he's just going "oh WTF now? Why do I put up with this lunatic?"
