...in which Batman punches a horse...
...then mounts it.
Of course that horse's head later gets flash frozen and smashed by Mr. Freeze. 'Twas not a good day for that horse (spoiler alerrrrrt)
That horse is all like "Aw shit, is that Batman. Batman's aweso...ow why the fuck did Batman punch me in the face. Aw, wait, now Batman is on my back. This is some wicked shit right here... is that Mr. Freeze. Aw no, worst brainfreeze ev..."
...
For some reason that horse thinks like a 14 year old suburban kid who totally just discovered Wiz Khalifa a couple weeks ago after previously only ever listening to top 40 radio and now is trying to establish his whole identity around liking Wiz Khalifa but his stupid parents wont take him to West 49 to get some new clothes and aren't really even sure where he got the Wiz Khalifa music from or what his attraction is to it (really parents, never heard of torrenting?). They think it's just a phase and leave the kid to his own devices, and he will delve deeper into current rap trends for about a year, buying a new era 59 hat of some sports team he doesn't even know but he saw it in a video, but ultimately abandon this new identity when he totally gets into whatever MMORPG is popular in two years time, and he totally unknowingly virtually hooks up with a 39-year-old single mother from Missouri for about a year. He goes on to be a moderately successful investment banker, divorced with one kid who he doesn't spend enough time with because he has a crippling addiction to internet pornography. It's the life the horse concocted in his mind and which flashed before his eyes in the panel between when his head got frozen and then all smashed-like.

I've not been so super keen on two Bat-crossovers happening in such quick succession like this, and have largely stuck with only the main Batman book, but I'm kind of curious how Joker managed to best all of Batman's allies, corral all of Batman's enemies, and set up the many, many, many elaborate schemes and set pieces, and also set up a trap crazy enough to checkmate the king of Gotham. I think I know why the Joker's pupils are so tiny...
