Why it's Impossible for The Batman Who Laughs to Ever Get a Live Action Introduction
The Batman Who Laughs is a DC villain that I never knew actually existed. I assumed that he was just a fun version that DC comics was using to create cool action figures to show everyone what Batman would look like as the Joker. I was so wrong when I realized that The Batman Who Laughs is actually a real character within the DC universe.

Tanked
Tank Girl is a rip-snorting, bald, badass beeyotch who rides around in a mini-tank across the vaguely post-apocalyptic, Mad Max Aussie outback, having surrealistic and hyperviolent adventures while being dirty, messy, foul-mouthed, and very drunk. Wielding serrated knives, huge guns, convenient small artillery, and tits that explode into missiles, she chain-smokes over a crooked little grin, leaning hard into her exuberant comic-book stupidity — a hardcore, foul-mouthed feminist parody of woman-warrior tropes. She's brutal, beautiful, and totally bad.
