comment |
Sergio Aragonés Destroys DC is a parody of characters from DC comics, written by Sergio Aragonés. As if you couldn't guess it yourself...One day, Sergio Aragonés grew tired of writing at the sides of MAD: it's about time he begins to write about big superheroes! First, Superman. Origin story, and Superman saves a kid, destroying his cape in the process, just because it's cool. And then Hawkman cries about a terrible villain coming to destroy them. Then, Batman: Origin story, Batman punishes a random criminal for information about a costumed vigilante that punishes criminals, Gordon sends him against the Joker, and Superman and Hawkman come to request his aid. Then, Wonder Woman: fighting something worse than an invasion of barbarians or gods: a ruling from the Supreme Court that rules that it is not constitutional to forbid the entry to the island based on sex. Hawkman tries as well to request the help of the Legion of Super-Heroes, who reject him because he's in the wrong time period.So, all the big heroes meet at some random planet, and try to figure out who is the villain. Sergio Aragonés stops writing for a moment, he did not think about the villain yet. He takes some old magazines, and selects the most terrible one: Johnny DC! Johnny tells the heroes that they have changed and now they suck, and so he gets "updated for the nineties" and tries to destroy them. Batman tricks him into saying his name backwards, and he disappears.What a great story! Or so thinks Sergio. He's kicked out of DC's premises, and the big chiefs tell a kid to get rid of those pathetic drawings. But he understood it wrong, and sent them for printing. The printers find it a bit strange, but surely it must be something for the Vertigo line. DC wouldn't request 300,000 printed copies of the wrong comic book, right? |

Bat Deduction: Batman had absolutely no clues about the identity of this dangerous foe, but he guessed it anyway. Because he's "The" Batman. Another way it's spoofed is earlier, when he reads the note the Joker left for him and spends hours thinking to figure out where he is, when the Joker actually wrote the address in the note. |

Jerkass Has a Point: After they defeated him, the heroes thought that Johnny DC was not so wrong after all. Superman could try not to break his clothes so often... Batman could try to be a bit less psychotic... Wonder Woman may try to have legs of human proportions... But then again, Kyle Rayner (who is a product of the era, lest we forget) just dismisses the point since he thinks the heroes are "cutting-edge" now. |

Art Shift: The scenes with Sergio and Mark are drawn in a slightly different style than the main story. It's probably due to each segment having a different inker. Sergio himself inks the segments where he and Mark are in, while the heroes' segments have inkers from their regular titles at the time (John Byrne inkled the Wonder Woman's segment and Denis Rodier inked Superman's, for example). |

"Not So Different" Remark |

"Not So Different" Remark: Batman muses about the option to not kill the Joker and instead to gloat about how much alike they are for a few pages. |

Fridge Logic: invokedAt the beginning of Wonder Woman's story, the narrator gets distracted by her leaping from out of nowhere and goes off on a rant about how someone could swing from building to building. |

Joker Immunity |
| | Sergio Aragonés Destroys DC (Comic Book) / int_a6cbef9a |
comment |
Joker Immunity: Invoked by the Trope Namer himself. Batman cannot kill him, because he's his most profitable villain. Better make a pair of bad jokes and see that they aren't so different for a couple of pages, and leave it at that. |

Retcon: Criminals are a supersticious, cowardly lot, so Bruce Wayne needs a disguise to strike terror into their hearts. He saw something in his window, that gave him the idea. Thus is born the weird figure of the dark, the avenger of evil... the Hare Krishna man! Ahem, as we were saying, thus is born the weird figure of the dark, the avenger of evil... Batman! ("That's The Batman to you, fella!") |

Writing by the Seat of Your Pants |
| | Sergio Aragonés Destroys DC (Comic Book) / int_c63cd20a |
comment |
Writing by the Seat of Your Pants: A parodied In-Universe example. As Hawkman points out, Sergio had not thought up who the villain that threatens the DC Universe is. When it's time for The Reveal, Sergio resorts to Archive Binging in order to find the "most disgusting, loathsome villain of all DC history". |

What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?: The Legion of Super-Heroes tryouts are parodied. Not only do we have the above-mentioned Nixon Boy, but we have Deja-Vu Kid (who can make events repeat themselves), Cotton-Swab Boy (who can remove earwax anywhere in the universe), Deja-Vu Kid (who can make events repeat themselves), Windows Lass (who can actually understand Windows 95), and Deja-Vu Kid (who can make events repeat themselves). |
