As it pours rain on ], a man hurriedly runs to ]'s house. He gets inside and introduces himself--but Thorne already knows who he is-- Sidney, The Man Who Killed Batman. |
|
|
|
|
|
Sidney, however, doesn't appreciate being the man Who Killed Batman because everyone wants to kill or fight him. So Sidney tells his story... |
|
|
|
|
|
Sidney was a average, two-bit crook who wanted to move up in the underworld, and agreed to go on a drug run as a lookout. The other mobsters, however, see Sidney as bait for the ] if he attempts to stop the run. |
|
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, the Batman does show up, and Sidney somewhat fights the Batman. Suddenly, Sidney falls off the roof, and Batman grabs onto his hands. But Sidney attempts to climb to the building, and as Sidney gets onto the building, Batman falls on top of a gas tank. The ensuing explosion is impossible to survive, and Sidney has done the impossible: He has killed the Batman. |
|
|
|
|
|
The rest of the ] hold a celebration for his death and toast Sidney (at last a success), but a tough fighter challenges Sidney, leading to a huge barroom fight. |
|
|
|
|
|
The group of criminals end up in ] as ] and ] recieve the news that Batman has been killed. Luckily for Sidney, however, a blonde lawyer claiming to be his lawyer (who looks familiar to Bullock) announces his bail, and the two leave. |
|
|
|
|
|
Once in the car, the lawyer reveals herself to be ], which means that the ] wants to see Sidney. |
|
|
|
|
|
At the theater, the Joker is delighted to meet him, and wants to test whether or not the Batman is ''really'' dead. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Joker and Harley stage a museam robbery, and wait for the Batman. Surprisingly, the Batman doesn't show up, and the Joker sadly comments, "Without Batman, crime has no punchline". They leave without any jewels and Joker decides to hold a funeral. |
|
|
|
|
|
The funeral is held in the ] plant where the Joker was first created, with only six attending members. The coffin holds Batman's cape and cowl, to which Joker attatches "Kick me". |
|
|
|
|
|
As Joker delivers a eulogy describing the death of the Joker's dream to kill Batman (Harley cries through the entire speech), he denounces Sidney for killing Batman at all. |
|
|
|
|
|
When he is done, however, the two hoods place Sidney in the coffin, and the coffin is put in an acid bank while Harley plays ] on a ]. The Joker sheds a tear, but then cries, "Well, that was fun, who's for Chinese?" |
|
|
|
|
|
Just as the acid seeps in, Sidney is apparently saved by getting sucked into a drainpipe. Winding up on the bank of the Gotham River, he runs over to Thorne's house and tells his story. |
|
|
|
|
|
At Thorne's house, Sidney requests a way of getting out of town to avoid the Joker and other hoods. Thorne, however, doesn't believe his story, and thinks he's trying to get in on his drug operation. As Thorne points a gun at Sidney, Batman suddenly arrives, completely unharmed, and knocks Thorne unconcious. |
|
|
|
|
|
Batman explains to Sidney that he faked his death and laid low for a while, observing what happened. Sidney realizes that Batman saved him from the acid, and attempts to walk out. Batman then stops him, explaining that he was still in the drug run, but explains that in prison, a man like Sidney would garner high respect. |
|
|
|
|
|
As Sidney is led to prison, the prisoners cheer him on for almost killing Batman and fooling the Joker, and Sidney says, "A big shot at last!" |
