Lego DC Comics Superheroes: Justice League - Gotham City Breakout Page #5

Monstrous humans, stay back!

Madame Mantis.

- It must be the real one.

- She's quite real and quite weak.

My cane.

My cane.

Here it is.

Are you all right? Ow!

Of course I'm not all right, dumbo.

I've been tortured by a magic rock

for two weeks.

- (WHIMPERING)

- But I didn't break.

I don't know how she endured it.

Mantis is so very strong.

I, on the other hand, am so very weak.

Oh, you're not so bad, kid.

You take good care of Madame Mantis.

This is Prince Grungle,

rightful ruler of this place.

(EXCLAIMS)

They're coming. Quickly, we must cower.

(GRUNTS)

- Batman!

- (BOTH GRUNT)

- (EXCLAIMS)

- (GRUNTS)

Stay away from her, you brute.

- (GROWLING)

- (WHIMPERING)

(CHUCKLING)

Some prince you turned out to be.

Yes, all the backbone of a jellyfish.

Lucky for us, Bane showed up when he did.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Never

tell forbidden move.

Oh, I'm sorry, but you will, Batface.

Madame Mantis.

That stone of theirs is strong.

Almost too strong, even for me.

Oh, this is all my fault.

When Bane arrived here,

I was too weak to stop him.

- Also a little bit chicken.

- Nightwing.

Prince Grungle

is clearly one of the good guys.

A little respect?

No, no, he's quite right.

I am no real prince.

A proper prince would've been brave,

put up a fight.

But I didn't know how.

We Trogowogs have always been

a peaceful people.

We used the sacred stone

to spread friendship and love.

Until Bane arrived.

He had heard whispers of our existence,

rumors of our great wealth.

Finally, after a long search, he found us

and used the Psych Stone

to teach our people to hate.

He destroyed my father, the king,

while I watched,

frozen in fear.

Now the Trogowogs are a violent mob

and follow a king of hate.

Don't be too hard on your people, Grungle.

Bane is pretty scary.

And everyone is afraid sometimes.

Bravery is just fighting for what you know

is right even when you're afraid.

Bane's corruption of the Trogowogs

is a travesty of justice.

As you know, Batface, my family

befriended Trogowogs centuries ago.

We perfected our martial arts

to protect and defend them.

I don't know how Bane

discovered the secret of the Trogowogs.

Well, maybe you talked in your sleep? Ow!

Batman, we've got to find a way to escape

so we can liberate the Trogowogs

from Bane's rule.

Hello, escape-proof cage,

confiscated utility belts.

- We're all helpless here.

- Not quite.

Deathstroke was so focused

on getting my utility belt,

he overlooked the one thing

that can get us out of here.

- What?

- He missed that?

(SNORTS) I say, what is that?

This, Prince Grungle,

is my Bat-brick separator.

Observe.

Holy crowbar.

That titanic tool could topple a tower.

I did it again, didn't I?

Focus.

Once I break through,

we'll have to move quickly to stop Bane.

Because if we don't, no force on Earth

will be able to stop his Trogowog army.

Not even the Justice League.

- (GROANING)

- (LAUGHING)

So kind of you gentlemen

to provide dinner on our first date,

- especially when you're the main course.

- WONDER WOMAN:
Mighty Aphrodite.

It's a good thing

you boys called for backup.

(GASPS)

Now, tell me what you've done

to my friends.

My special plant pheromones

have intoxicated your friends

- and placed them under my control.

- (GASPS)

(GROANS)

And now I have you, too.

(BURPS)

We overheard Cyborg's pathetic call

for your help.

We've been waiting for you.

Now the real fun begins.

JOKER:
Ladies and gentlemen,

Cyborgs, Supermen and Wonder Women.

Welcome to Gotham's

preeminent party palace,

the Joker Fun House.

(CACKLING)

(ALL CACKLING)

(MOCK VOICE) Fun for us, anyway.

(LAUGHING)

(NORMAL VOICE) Oh, Spoony, you're so bad.

(CACKLING)

Whoa. Is that a talking spoon?

I've had enough of this nonsense, Joker.

I'm not falling for any more tricks.

Did somebody say "falling"?

(LAUGHING)

ALL:
Whoa!

You two need to work on

your emergency stops.

(PENGUIN LAUGHING)

Out of the water and into the frying pan.

Give it up, Penguin.

Unlike Batman, bullets have no effect on...

Ugh. (SPITS)

What is that?

A fish?

(SPITS) I hate Gotham City. Ugh.

Its criminals are so weird.

Don't worry, Superman,

I've activated my internal nose plugs

and deactivated my gag reflex.

I'll pluck that foul fish-flinging fowl.

Whoa!

(LAUGHS)

Unlike real penguins, this one can fly.

Scarecrow, hit 'em with your fear gas.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(ALL COUGHING)

ALL:
Huh?

- Look how high up we are.

- No, no, no.

I'm suddenly afraid of heights.

(ALL YELLING)

(LAUGHING)

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

(LAUGHING)

(CACKLING)

(ALL SCREAMING)

(BOTH CACKLING)

(YELLING)

- (ALL CACKLING)

- (YELLING)

(EXCLAIMS)

(MOCK VOICE)

Ha-ha! Looks like you forgot to buckle up.

(NORMAL VOICE) Too bad,

because the ride's only just beginning.

(CACKLING)

(ALL YELLING)

(COMMUNICATOR RINGING)

- Hello.

- Hey, Robin.

Starfire and I are about to finish off

Giganta here in Metropolis.

How about you ditch the cave and join us

for our next adventure, Pizza Pandemonium.

Sorry, Beast Boy, no can do.

What? Because it's a school night?

Or is it really because you're a...

(IMITATES CLUCKING)

Chicken, get it?

Because I became a chicken?

(BUTTON BEEPS)

(JUSTICE LEAGUE WHIMPERING)

Save some pizza for me.

I have to stay here in Gotham

and handle a big problem.

(BUTTON BEEPS)

Ooh. (SNORTS)

The air is just electric today, isn't it?

It's as though something exciting

will happen at any moment.

- Scintillating.

- I'm all a-tingle.

(BEEPING)

The coast is clear. Come quickly.

Thank you, old friend.

What now? Find our way back up

the nearly bottomless pit?

Once we climb up a few miles,

we should be able to signal the rest

of the Justice League for help.

Ow! What was that for?

A book with no pages

is never overdue from the library.

Right. What?

Madame Mantis is saying that

Bane is a bully.

And the only way to deal with a bully

is to stand up to them.

- (ALARM BLARING)

- (WHIMPERS)

Our decampment from that ghastly Gulag

has been discovered.

What shall we do?

Remember, Grungle, bravery isn't

what you feel, it's what you do.

(BANE CLEARING THROAT)

Batman, hear me.

There is no escape for you.

The tyrant.

He's grown to gargantuan proportions.

Flee!

Calm yourself, Prince Grungle.

Bane's merely using the Psyche Stone

to project this image of himself.

Turn yourself in

and I may spare the lives of your friends.

(YELLING)

Prince Grungle! Wait, it's nothing.

Wrong. It is something.

- It is a trap.

- (BOTH GASP)

- DEATHSTROKE:
Well, well, well.

- (WHIMPERING)

The prince.

Or should I say,

the former prince, future sushi.

Ugh. We've been searching forever.

We should forget looking for him and get back

to the surface world for reinforcements.

Grungle is alone and he's frightened.

This whole weird underworld plus our world

is doomed

if Bane gets his hands on Bats again.

Now that's frightening.

It's too late.

Grungle has certainly been recaptured.

- Oh, come on, you can't possibly know...
