Main comic: A single panel parodying Batman. A bloodied Batman in a blue and gray costume stands triumphantly over a defeated Joker (green hair, white grinning face) lying on the ground. Batman holds a smoking pistol and grins, saying, "WOW. THAT WAS EASY. WHAT DID YOU CALL THESE?" A caption beneath reads: “Guns,” cooed Mary Marvel, as she took another slow drag off her hand-rolled cigarette. The joke: someone has just handed gun-averse Batman a gun, and he's delighted by how effective it is. Votey: A black-and-white close-up of Batman's cowled face looking upward with an eager grin, declaring, "I'M GONNA KILL SO MANY MUGGERS!"
