We need the eggs.
“Well, I guess that’s pretty much now how I feel about relationships; y’know, they’re totally irrational, and crazy, and absurd, and… but, uh, I guess we keep goin’ through it because, uh, most of us… need the eggs.”
This was originally going to be a longer comic showing the similarities between Batman and the Joker and how, at the end of the day, they are both alone in a cage of their own making. I’ve always loved the dynamic of their relationship, and it’s been touched on thousands of times before by far superior writers. I love that they both know they can’t change the others point of view and yet they keep at it, leaving them to wonder, at the end of they day as they both nurse their battle scars, “Why do I still do it?” Maybe they both need the eggs?
