Meet Sunburner: Batman's Laughable Newest Villain Takes Reddit by Storm

Comic fans and humor enthusiasts, brace yourselves! A new villain has emerged in Gotham, and he's already making waves on Reddit. The latest comic strip by Wedeking, titled "We're Out of Cornflakes," introduces Sunburner, a sun-themed villain who seems to be the bane of Batman's existence—at least for now.

The three-panel comic strip, which can be found at wearoutofcornflakes.com, has quickly become a fan favorite for its clever humor and lighthearted take on the Dark Knight's adventures. Here's a breakdown of the panels that have everyone talking:

First Panel:

The scene opens with Batman, in his iconic blue suit, pointing menacingly at Sunburner. This new villain is a bright yellow and orange character, embodying all things sun-related. Batman declares, "All right Sunburner, you may be Gotham's newest villain, but you're also going to be Gotham Jail's newest inmate."

Second Panel:

As Sunburner is e*****ed away by two police officers, Batman, with a smug expression, quips, "You're burned, Sunburner!" The pun is met with mixed reactions from readers, ranging from groans to laughs.

Third Panel:

The comic takes a humorous twist when Bruce Wayne, Batman's alter ego, is approached by two nervous business associates. One of them stammers, "Well, hello Batman…er ah..Bruce Wayne... Hehehe." The mix-up leaves Bruce Wayne looking both amused and annoyed.

Reddit users have had a field day with this comic strip. Comments range from "This is probably why Batman tends to work at night" to "Why does Batman wear a mask that only covers half of his face? So the cops know he’s white!" One user humorously suggested that Batman would have sunspray in his utility belt, while another quipped, "Shouldn't it be 'You've been blocked, Sunburner'?"

The comic has also sparked discussions about the practicality of Batman's costume, with users wondering if Bruce Wayne’s mouth area is covered in little scratches and scars, but the rest of his face remains smooth. The character Goldmask from the story also drew comparisons, with one commenter noting, "Goldmask tryna restore order to Gotham smh."

The comic has not only provided laughs but also prompted some reflection on the iconic superhero. One user admitted, "Took me a minute or two to get it. You could say, it was a slow burner." Another remarked on the quality of the comic, saying, "Funniest stuff I've ever seen dude."
