The Joker Is Pregnant? DC Comics Goes Woke in Latest Release Centered Around Infamous Villain

It is ceaselessly amazing the lengths major corporations will go to, so they can appease the furthest fringes of the woke mob.

Case in point, DC Comics, which is owned by media powerhouse Warner Bros. Discovery, just recently released issue #4 of their relatively new comic book series “The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing.”

The standalone series, which obviously focuses on the titular Batman villain, is described as “a violent, mind-bending new series that picks up from the cataclysmic end of The Joker and follows the mayhem across the United States.”

Well, “mind-bending” might be underselling it given the backup storyline (a separate standalone story typically tacked onto the end of a comic book that may or may not have anything to do with the main arc found in the rest of the comic book; think of it almost as a precursor to those post-credit scenes that movies love so much) featured in issue #4 has set the internet ablaze with controversy.

First, just to get it out of the way, The Joker, a male character for the unfamiliar, gets pregnant via a magical spell. Because, you know, comic books.

In the tweet below, you can see exact panel when The Joker and his colleagues realize that he’s pregnant:

The Western Journal won’t directly post any more of the disturbing imagery on the comics (you can find those here), but rest assured, it’s as disturbing as you would think.

To summarize: The Joker has a magic spell cast on him by superhero Zatanna, after the former propositions the latter to start a family. Zatanna instead casts a spell to ensure that “no one else” will be able to sire Joker’s child. Thanks to magical nonsense, that means Joker ends up having his own baby.
