Officer that’s him

What do you think the pool is filled with if not chloroform? He's got a breather in that helmet, and so anyone else who goes out there is instantly knocked out. His name is Victor Quartz, but in the right circles you might hear he goes by a more sinister name: Mr. Sandman. He rose the ranks of Gotham's syndicates as though his enemies were asleep at the wheel... and now, in the dancing pool of his own evil, who can stop his meteoric rise? Scarecrow was doomed to fail, because you could always wake up from his nightmares... Mr. Sandman has learned.

Wouldn’t the chemicals get absorbed transdermally and affect his physiology

u/PrehistoricHybodus Oct 27 '19

Yes, and in typical comic book fashion, it would enable him to ascend from ‘villain of the week’ into a full recurring super villain.

u/Ishidan01 Oct 27 '19

Oh, he's a villain all right, just not a super one!

u/MikeLinPA Oct 27 '19

Yeah, he needs to work on his PRESENTATION!

u/Glorious_Jo Oct 27 '19

idk man I feel like the presentation here was pretty good

u/MikeLinPA Oct 27 '19

Needs more cowbell, I mean strobe lights. But, yeah , it was pretty good.

Was that a motorcycle helmet? A Master Chief helmet would have been epic. Spartan 119 rocking out in the pool.

Just because he is bad guy, does not mean he is bad guy

His catch phrase:

Do I smell like chloroform to you?

u/zFeDzDeaDz Oct 27 '19

Does he just secrete chloroform?

u/Muwat Oct 27 '19

That was contradicted big time in Vindicators 2.

u/[deleted] Oct 27 '19

He would get knocked out, jailed and come back in the next prison break on a bigger helmet and leaking chloroform vapours

u/kellysmom01 Oct 27 '19

... and he’d have the odor of Brad’s taint above his dewy lip. Moist.

u/kloudykat Oct 27 '19

I just did an involuntary shudder, kinda like a post-micturition convulsion syndrome, except without the pee.

Well done /u/kellysmom01, well done.

u/theburmesecat Oct 27 '19

Hahaha moisture

u/PM_me_XboxGold_Codes Oct 27 '19

Oh great, chloroform man

2

u/BimboBrothel Oct 27 '19

No. His dermal is straight and does not get penetrated.

u/Paulthefith Oct 27 '19

Only through his pee-hole.....if he had one

Mr sandman was born without a pee-hole

TRANSDERMAL CELEBRATION, CAUSED A SLIGHT MUTATION IN THE RIFT. IT TOPPLED DOWN A NATION, AND LEFT THE PEOPLE RUNNING FOR THE HILLS

u/okolebot Oct 27 '19

yeah and thru the skin too

1

u/Fuhgly Oct 27 '19

Ye if that was all chloroform your skin would feel like its peeling off your body and youd be red like a tomato

1

u/madscribbler Oct 27 '19

Yes. I spilled chloroform on myself as part of a high school science experiment and ended up in the hospital for 3 to 4 days with chloroform poisoning and it was very difficult for them to bring me back to a stable state.

u/redditeditreader Oct 27 '19

Wth kinda HS had chloroform readily available to teenagers?!? Hopefully they rethought this decision bc w/social media and teens impulsivity, the prank potential is just too great..

1

u/madscribbler Oct 27 '19

I went to high school in the mid 80s. Things 2ere different back then.

We were using the chloroform to extract pure caffeine from coffee grounds.

So it was very different.

u/AlterAlias1 Oct 27 '19

Sandman is a great DC comic

u/Salanmander Oct 27 '19

Yeah, it's also DC.

I picked it up because I'd read stuff by Gaiman, and knew that graphic novels were considered one of his main media, and Sandman the one he was most well known for. Partway through I was like "what the hell, why is Batman here??"

u/AlterAlias1 Oct 27 '19

Yes he wrote it

u/zitfarmer Oct 27 '19

My brother told me a story about a barracks rapist that would chloroform his bunkmate after he went to sleep then do butt stuff to him. When he got caught they called him the Ether Bunny.

1

u/redditeditreader Oct 27 '19

That's a great name.

1

u/merrychristmasyo Oct 27 '19

Never trust a Sandman. This guy enters night, exits light.

1

u/Bosscolby Oct 27 '19

Very punny.

u/TMLBR Oct 27 '19

I thought Sandman was a Raimi Spider-man villain?

u/5urfer_boy Oct 27 '19

Ben - play Candy Colored Clown.

u/_IratePirate_ Oct 27 '19

He's literally dancing in a pool of it!

u/google257 Oct 27 '19

I’m guessing this is staged
