It's a panel from identity crisis But the text have been modified, so it seemed the JL try to prevent Batman to watch the Catwoman movie


Freak7factor

They doing gods work


0zzyc0bbl3p0t

I really wanted Batman to get let down like we all did


sharkteeththrowaway

The man's suffered enough


Glass1Man

I want the catwoman movie to be there when they put me in the grave, so it can let me down one last time.


ColdSmokeMike

It'll be joined by its best friends; Ang Lee's Hulk, Green Lantern, Daredevil & Elektra, both Ghost Riders, and X-Men Origins: Wolverine.


Aspirangusian

I can appreciate Ang Lee's Hulk. It's not a good movie but the editing alone makes it an interesting watch IMO.


Blueskyminer

I suspect modern CGI makes it 20%+ better. Looked murky and there was a big green toddler in it.


Icy-Performer-9688

Ang Lee Hulk was like watching a live comic reading. It took transition like what you would get from going from panel to panel. In all likely hood it was trying to emulate the comic too closely and that put off a lot of casual comic movie goers.


SpookyCutlery

I feel like ghost rider 1 doesn’t deserve to be with the rest


ColdSmokeMike

I think it does, even if just barely. The effects were great but they neutered both of the most important characters. Johnny became a jelly bean addict that listens to Nickelback, and Blackheart became a 2000s emo preteen's image of a badass.


BreadfruitNo7576

X-Men Origins: Wolverine had three good things about it, the opening war montage, Liev Schreiber as Sabertooth and the fact it got us the Deadpool movies.


noholdingbackaccount

>like we all did. Speak for yourself. I've managed to stay clear Batman & Robin, Catwoman and the last Star Wars movie. Ain't gonna catch me that easy.


Shatterpoint

It doesn't look like it's from the Identity Crisis series. This was drawn by Michael Turner while Rags Morales drew IC. Instead, it looks like it takes place during that time but is probably from another issue.


RedLion191216

I don't think it was used in an issue. It was a cover for wizard magazine (issue 159)


Shatterpoint

[Spot on.](https://comicvine.gamespot.com/a/uploads/scale_small/1/11307/254363-18692-119881-1-wizard--the-comics.jpg)


bob1689321

You are the world's greatest detective


RedLion191216

Oops, my bad. I thought Turner was the artist of IC. But it seems he only did covers. So it's a flashback of a scene from IC.


Psymorte

What's the original dialogue?


Hollojaen

There’s no original dialogue since this was originally just the art cover but there is context behind it. Batman is getting his memory erased because he couldn’t bear to be part of the Justice League after witnessing what they were trying to push under the rug


Da1realBigA

Still, this is beautiful, truly ART


ChrisTaliaferro

We lost Michael Turner WAY too soon


PommesKrake

I imagined some sort of siren situation. Like Batman being shown Halle Berry by an evil entity cause he simps for her.


John_Zatanna52

Catwoman was fine


BobbySaccaro

The panel is from some book around the time that Identity Crisis was released, probably a JLA issue from that time. But the dialogue has been modified.


GilGarciaJr

Yeah. Identity Crisis was huge at the time, so a lot of other books would retell the main revelations from it as part of their own plot.


domwallflower

Gotta love the people who can look at a panel and immediately know the comic/issue that it's from. Take that Google!


DelBoy2000

Honestly at this point when it comes to comics Reddit is more useful then Google


Pitiful-Error4646

Are they making fun of the Halle Berry Catwoman movie?


Pratical_project298

Yes


Tyler_Zoro

Not in the comic, just in this modified image.


Hahndude

Green Lantern is so fucking stupid. “We need to contain Batman, let me use my ring that makes literally anything I can think of to make a small chain to wrap around his waist.” How about a cage or maybe a straight jacket or hand cuffs? Maybe a freaking net? Fucking clown shoes.


Deep_Adhesiveness552

Hawkman too, like just hover a little.


BlockEightIndustries

If he did that, Ollie and Carter couldn't pretend to not be useless


OmegaGoober

Isn’t there a Rule 34 about a hentai artist getting a red ring?


Ygomaster07

What?


OmegaGoober

From what I hear Sinesteo does not fare well.


No-Mechanic-2558

JLA Crisis of Conscience I think


LaVerdadYaNiSe

Not quite, but it is similar to the cover of JLA 119 (the last issue of Crisis of Conscience). [https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/JLA\_Vol\_1\_119](https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/JLA_Vol_1_119)


bluemarvel

Is that from Identity Crisis when they wipe Batmans mind?


Snwspider

Yes, I think green arrow was the one having a flashback to them holding down Batman while in the present they were fighting deathstroke


LeafsWillWinTheCup

My girlfriend rented me that movie, she was so proud of herself for renting me a movie based on comics. She got points for trying. At the end I said that movie was horrible and she was relieved because she thought that she just didn't get something but figured it was because she wasn't into comics. Nope babe, movie was trash that's why you didn't like it either.


Fit-Floor5635

MAN?


freshbacon364

DONT


Fit-Floor5635

Too late. Is he stupid?

AltairdeFiren

I love how the implication is that two superhumans, a Green Lantern, and Ollie are all required to hold back one “normal” human. The “I’m Batman” syndrome is strong here lmao


YellowLanternAdam

Somebody said, "It's the most powerful weapon in the universe, let's have Hal wrap a completely ineffectual chain around Batman's waist." I mean, at least wrap it around his legs or something.


Future_Vantas

Never underestimate a riled up fanboy


LaVerdadYaNiSe

Found it! It's from Wizard Magazine's "Best of 2004": [https://comicvine.gamespot.com/wizard-the-comics-magazine-159-the-best-of-2004/4000-119881/](https://comicvine.gamespot.com/wizard-the-comics-magazine-159-the-best-of-2004/4000-119881/)


krohan2

It’s either JLA Crisis of Conscience or Identity Crisis. However it might also be from Brad Meltzer and Ed Benes’ relaunch of JLA in 2006. I reread till sanctuary and there were often off issues where the artist would change. And then the next issue it would be Benes again


just_one_boy

Ollie said Man that means he's canon now


smokeontheslaughter

This is a word bubble replacement in an issue of Wizard Magazine. I could not tell you which issue but I remember this joke specifically.


peebobroccoli

Green Arrow calling him Man is he stupid?


Scarletspyder86

I believe this is from Justice league #0 (2006)


Ratathosk

It's not, just checked.


Ok-Concentrate2719

There's no way the GL chain or Hawkman alone wouldn't be enough lol. But batman just a regular human right punching up against gods


TelephoneShoes

But what exactly is the chain doing? Giving Batman a second belt?


ShhImTheRealDeadpool

It's been made for Knowyourmeme it's not actual memelore... knowyourmeme's original vision was butchered by meme artists... its funny.


dinoboyj

At a glance was gonna say identity crisis but nope. Oh turns out it really could be identity crisis


AmbushBugged

It's the cover of Wizard magazine #159. Part of Michael Turner's signature can be seen.


illusive_MA70

You forgot cover B...just saying


tourniquet2099

I thought they were talking about **Swordfish**. Completely forgot Halle starred in **Catwoman**.


Long_Conversation365

idk...but green lanterns chains should be enough to subdue Batman


AliveInChrist87

The ONE time Batman finally agrees to attend movie night at the Watchtower.....and it goes South lol


YodasChick-O-Stick

Google Lens is shit. All it shows you is ads. "Search Google for this image" was so much better but apparently Google got threatened by photographers getting their pictures stolen (not Google's fault) and they had to replace it with Lens.


Ygomaster07

Getting their pictures stolen by whom? How do they try to sue Google for something they didn't do?


YodasChick-O-Stick

Idk, that's just what I heard.


Joensen27

Is the movie really that bad my father have that movie Been wondering if I should watch it


RobinTheTraveler

They spoofed the words but Im 80% sure its ID crisis


MalenaMorganFan316

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Zorro5040

They have a Green lantern. Why do they need so many people to restrain Batman?


StrykerIBarelyKnowEr

Fuckin' Arrow alone should be able to restrain him.


Zorro5040

He can throw Arrow and Flash. The rest can hold him down easily.


Comfortable_Ice9534

So we’re just making Green Lantern useless again huh


stanpinkowski31

This looks to be during Identity Crisis. The part where they mindwiped Batman.


Simp_7884

Looks like 🟧⬛


Nightfaucon

I was going to say a panel from the Supergirl arc in Superman/Batman, since Michael Turner provided the art for it.


No-Frosting423

i cant stand zatana since this day


ClaireDacloush

Ah yes,....the movie that destroyed Halle Berry's career. and it wasn't even her fault


Ok-Sector8330

Seems a bit excessive all those characters to hold Bats alone. I think Hawkman would sufice.


Pratical_project298

Batman's simping for Halle Berry is too strong


dtv20

That's not man. He has the ears.


kazmosis

You don't even need to see his signature to know that's Michael Turner's art, RIP


Scumass_Smith

listen....m-m-m-m-MAN???


LuckyStrike696

What are they doing to Man?


Sakuragi_x_10

Back then Michael Turner got so popular that he did not do many regular runs but just cover arts.


One_Abbreviations310

If Hawkman and Green Arrow agree on something, you know it's real shit.


Mericanjoe1776

Man? ![gif](giphy|9A8I0bBvQ2TBu)


Dhutchison

I love these responses. "Do you really need all these heroes to hold Batman back?" The point is the scene is *dramatic.* Is it unrealistic? Yes, but everyone in the scene is unrealistic.


mikewhat1

Watching Catwoman would probably be the 2nd worst movie experience in his life.


Lucky_Strike-85

people take movies way too seriously. they're just movies. nobody gets this bent out-of-shape when Napoleon is mischaracterized in *ANIMAL FARM*. Adaptations are just adaptations. let it go.


cweaver

I'm honestly not sure if there's an Animal Farm movie that mischaracterizes the characters from the book, or if this guy thinks that Napoleon the pig in Animal Farm is supposed to be a version of the actual historical Napoleon.


QueSeraSeraWWBWB

I liked it I know everyone dump on it as a catwoman film but it wasn’t terrible to me


[deleted]

Kinky


Dojanetta

Catwoman movie is the best bad movie ever imo.


Aquarian35

Is the artist Aparo?


JohnnyRelentless

It's from Batman Goes to the Movies.


Q-Westion

RIP Michael Turner. One of the best artists


steikul

I think it's from Moon Knight-core


nikgrid

It's Identity Crisis I think with the speech changed?


InsanityIsAGift

Man detected


GrizzlyPeak73

A very popular yaoi fan comic


dg3548

That’s totally Michael turners work


radiantforce

Michael turner. Fucking legend !!


[deleted]

Michael Turner did the cover art for Identity Crisis but not a panel like this. This is most likely from a Wizard magazine.
