Hey.
Have you ever thought about
going to a new world that's different from this one?
A place that has hella good food, killer music,
extra fluffy beds, you name it!
C'mon, doesn't that sound great?
S-spare me! I'll do anything!
Harley.
I'm gonna take you there!
To a new world!
Have you double checked the equipment?
Just finished. What about the main program?
Performing the final check now.
Hurry.
Power is our main priority, so just ignore any small leaks.
Roger that. Unit Two, I need your support on this!
Everything's ready, ma'am!
Then start it up.
Was that perfect or what, Puddin'?
We're just getting started, honey!
Consider this the prelude to a very, very long show.
Harley.
Yay!
A new world!
That's music to my ears!
It's exactly what I've been itching for.
The modern world is so ugly!
And worst of all...
it's unfair.
What's the matter?
The power output is lower than we expected.
It won't last.
Then increase the load.
But that would put too much strain on her!
There is no "her." Just a tool to open the Gate.
Now do it.
You are totally right.
Deep down, that's what everybody's thinking about!
Even people who're sitting pretty, eating good every day,
and bossing around their countless minions!
You mean, they just wanna blow this pop stand and go someplace else?
That's right! To a new world!
Can you guess why?
It's because their soul, or their existence,
or whatever you wanna call it, is screaming on the inside.
It's saying: "This isn't who I really am!"
People are so stupid!
But nobody ever takes the leap.
And that's why we're going to change things!
We'll use whatever it takes, whether it's guns or these scraps of paper,
and change the world!
Hey, Puddin'?
Let's enjoy a drink before we do that.
Changin' the world is a tough job, ya know?
Hang back for a bit, 'kay?
Booze tastes all the sweeter when I drink it while waiting for my lover.
Harley.
You're the best woman alive.
Cuz' I'm your woman, Puddin'.
Hey!
Everybody havin' a good time?
Aw, jeez. Is this a funeral or what?
Welcome in.
Gimme something sweet. Super sweet.
Where's KJ?
Taking the day off?
Yeah, called in with a cold.
Fun fact: There's nobody named "KJ" at this bar.
Puddin'! Don't come in here!
Ma'am! We really need to stop!
Just keep going.
Don't stop!
Upsy-daisy.
Hey, Puddin'? Where are you?
Come in.
I dunno what a samurai could have against little ol' me.
Uh, gosh... what a pretty sword!
Your mask needs some work, though!
Do you use an flat iron on that ha-
I'm sorry.
The Joker slipped through our fingers.
That's rich!
No freakin' duh.
My Puddin' would never get caught by chumps like you.
Wait for me, Puddin'.
I'm gonna find my way back to you for sure.
This is where it all begins.
We've finally opened the doorway to a new world.
(HALF A YEAR LATER)
(CODENAMED: A.R.G.U.S)
Please wait a minute! Are you out of your mind?!
I've already gotten approval.
But these people are supervillains, the worst of the worst!
And it's going to come down on my head if anything goes wrong!
Are you picking a fight with me?
Not at all, ma'am.
Well, you've already got a major problem to answer for.
There's a discrepancy in the number of supplies coming into the asylum
versus those going out.
It's been like that ever since you took over here.
So shut up and do what I say.
Otherwise, you'll spend the rest of your days
behind bars instead of in front of them.
Open it.
That you, Wade? Hang on, this is the best part!
Hey, I said hang on!
What is this, a surprise party?
Get out.
You're going to do a job for me.
Who are you?
You're not my mom, that's for sure.
Wait, Harley.
I've been extra good to you, haven't I?
I gave you the best possible treatment!
So the least I deserve is a thank y-
Sorry, pal.
But there's only one guy who gets free reign over me.
Both romantically and physically.
Take her away.
Lead me to the next cell. Hurry up.
Y-you're insane!
Nobody in their right mind would ever let these scum out.
Obviously.
It's impossible to change the world without embracing insanity.
Yo.
Rise and shine, little lady.
Ugh, goddammit!
I wanted Tweety's voice to be the first thing I wake up to in the morning!
Why I gotta see your nasty face?!
Oh, great. A psycho chick.
Hey. Watch your mouth.
That's no way to treat a woman who you've just met.
A real gentleman always carries himself with elegance.
Aw shucks!
Now that's more like it!
I'm liking you already.
Gentleman?
Where the hell's your bowtie, then?
I can't deny we're wearing the same outfit.
But I'm just built different.
Don't you notice anything special about my face?
I'm seeing two eyes, two ears, one nose, and one mouth.
Yep. You're a real looker. Not my type, though.
Do you two just not watch movies or what?
No way! You're a movie star?!
What about TV?
I've watched every season of "Game of Thrones"!
Just forget it.
Isn't this one of those "shock and awe" scenes?
No, maybe they're going with foreshadowing.
Like it's more exciting if they notice who I am later on.
What's the deal with Jason over there?
Have an accident while shaving or what?
I never make mistakes.
I'm wearing this because people seeing my face could interfere with my mission.
Mission?
That's right. It's a noble cause.
Hold the damn phone.
Do you know the reason they hauled us out here?
Yes, we're on a mission for peace.
Because I don't put in work for anything else.
Peace? Us?
This is just perfect!
Now we've got a crazy mofo, too.
It's about time you woke up, dirtbags.
Glad to see you're all getting along.
Why of course.
Tell me, will we be arriving soon?
If it's going to be a long wait, then would you mind untying me?
I need to get my stretches in.
Don't worry. We arrived some time ago.
You dirtbags have a mission to carry out. A noble one.
Now listen to the word of our Lord.
The five of you will work together with my agent there, Adam,
to conduct a mission.
The reward for success is a reduced sentence.
To put it simply,
your mission is to establish and protect a series of bridgeheads
that will serve as the framework
for conducting research and resource acquisition in a certain region.
Jeez. You really call that "simple"?
It doesn't count unless you use words that even dumb schoolkids can understand.
Besides, why the hell should we work for you?
Because you've all had bombs implanted in your necks.
And I can trigger them to explode at anytime that I wish.
Furthermore, they also work on a countdown.
Unless it receives a radio signal sent from our end
the bomb is set to explode every 72 hours.
In other words, any attempts to escape
or ignore the orders that I give to you will result in death.
So we're just supposed to wag our tails and be good doggies
now that we know our lives are in your hands?
I hear you have a daughter.
Sit down!
Amanda Waller! You bitch!
Mark my words.
Lay a single finger on my daughter, and you're dead friggin' meat!
There are no more objections, I assume?
Then follow the instructions Adam gives you.
All of your gear is stored in the wooden crates in back.
Get changed and prepare for the mission.
Got it?
Don't forget about the bombs in your necks.
Are you sure?
What happens if I cling onto you? Still willing to blow me up then?
Why, you little...
I'm just kidding.
You aren't even my type.
By the way, she said there were five of us just now.
Where's the last performer?
What are you talking about?
The fifth one is-
What happened?!
Hey, let me loose!
Dammit!
Hey! Get us out of these restraints!
What was that explosion?
Let's go take a look. Follow me!
Shit! Just a little more...
Guess we managed to make a crash landing.
What the hell?
Thanks.
Good grief.
We can get out from this side.
He's a metahuman?!
No wonder he was the only one with that weird restraining device on him.
Hey.
Did you have a part in "The Lord of the Rings"?
What?
Now that's a hardcore film set. Which studio is doing this one?
Film set? Seriously?
Hey, where are we?
Is this part of the peace mission or whatever?
That's right. Our noble cause.
Then, like, explain it.
I'm betting you don't know jack shit, do ya?
Wh-whoa, wait a minute!
Huh? Say what?
My apologies. We're outsiders, you see.
Where is your producer?
Okay, don't even try to tell me this is a movie set or a dream.
'Cuz under the nasty BO of these pig freaks,
I can smell something real friggin' familiar.
This is all real.
Yeah.
Wonderful.
I love when things are super easy to figure out!
I have no clue where this is or who you freaks are...
but you're not on my side, right?!
(METAHUMAN IN THE FORM OF A SHARK HAS THE IQ OF A KINDERGARTENER)
(THE MAIDEN OF MISCHIEF. FORMER PSYCHIATRIST)
Anybody who gets in my way or disturbs the peace is dead!
Bloodbath-style!
(VIOLENT VIGILANTE WHO IS DETERMINED TO ACHIEVE PEACE AT ALL COSTS)
Disgusting beasts!
Begone!
(A SHAPE-CHANGER MADE OF LIVING CLAY. UNPOPULAR MOVIE ACTOR)
This is getting us nowhere. Where's their boss?
You mean, like, a King Piggy? Probably hiding in their pigsty!
It's that one!
Everyone knows that true villains have hideous faces!
True villains are hideous, huh?
What?
Nothing.
(PROFESSIONAL ASSASSIN. AN EXPERT MARKSMAN WHO NEVER MISSES HIS TARGET)
Ugh! What the hell was that all about?
Who knows?
But ignoring all the pig freaks,
I'm guessing that one's on our side?
She did say five people.
Not sure if we can count that as a "person" though.
Look who's talking.
Hold on! Do you speak our language?
You guys have been fighting those pig things, too, right?
That guy is on our side. Probably.
Come, my sword!
Was that a trick? Or some kinda magic?
Oh, I get it! So that's what's going on!
It's okay. Don't worry.
Our apologies for frightening you.
We come in peace.
Excellent!
The stories in my reality were boring me to death,
but God really knows how to entertain!
What a fantastic scenario he's blessed me with!
Wait, what? What's gotten into you?
Don't you get it?
Look around you!
There's dragons and orcs!
An old-fashioned war fought with swords and arrows!
Plus, magic!
This is "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland"!
The Lewis Carroll book?
But I believe the more common term in pop culture is...
an "Isekai"!
Isekai?
Oh, goddammit. Give me break.
"Noble cause," my ass. This is friggin' ridiculous!
Ridiculous?
Did you just call my mission ridiculous?!
Have you looked around?
If this isn't ridiculous, then what is?
No matter how sticky the situation gets, I always see my mission through to the end.
Don't get in my way!
Huh?!
Christ, man. Are you blind?
Who the hell do you think just shot the pig boss's brains out?
Well?
You're looking at the chosen warriors who were summoned from another world!
Isn't that right? Now bring us before your king!
We'll put an end to this war!
Huh?
"Anybody who disturbs the peace is dead"? What the hell was that?
You a peace-mongering nutjob or what?
Hey! I already told you once!
Don't say that kinda crap in front of me!
You guys are still fighting?
- You guys are still fighting? - Peace-mongering nutjob!
- YOU SONUVA...! - Peace-mongering nutjob!
We just got word that a new group of strangers
has been brought into the Kingdom.
Beings from another world?
Most definitely.
There is nothing they can do.
Isn't that right, my trailblazing friends?
