CLUB NOCHE

Creed vs Joker

In the climactic finale of Club Noche Issue 9, the covert military raid reaches its explosive peak. Austin, one of Creed Rivers' elite team members, engages Joker in brutal hand-to-hand combat, landing a devastating overhead strike that drops the crime boss. Joker recovers and uses his signature twin blades to carve through Austin's defenses, ultimately delivering a fatal horizontal slash. With Austin fallen, Creed takes over the fight. Armed with his Creeds magnum blaster pistol, Creed pursues Joker through the club's interior, trading gunfire and close-quarters combat. After a desperate struggle—including a harrowing grapple where Joker nearly crushes Creed's consciousness—Creed forces them both through a window onto the street below. Creed emerges victorious, retrieves his weapon, and corners the dying Joker against Club Noche's neon-lit wall. In his final moments, Joker apologizes to his brother Slik before Creed executes him with three gunshots. The next morning, Slik arrives at the scene to find his brother dead. As his henchmen ask what comes next, Slik makes a quiet, devastating choice: he must call his mother and tell her that her son is gone.

PAGE 1

Panel 1:Inside Club Noche's fight arena, Austin stands over Joker with both batons raised overhead. Joker lies on his back on the canvas, dazed. Austin's face is locked in combat focus, muscles tensed. The crowd around the ring is a blur of silhouettes in the dim arena lighting.

Panel 2:Joker's body absorbs the impact and he rolls with the strike, his face twisted in pain but his eyes already calculating. He pushes himself up onto his elbows, one knee bending as he begins to rise. Blood trickles from his temple.

Joker: Heh. You boys got some fight in you after all.

Panel 3:Joker stands fully upright, his twin blades gleaming in each hand. Austin swings one baton in a wide arc at Joker's head. Joker ducks beneath the swing with fluid precision, his body moving like liquid violence. His eyes are cold and focused.

Panel 4:Joker moves in close, his twin blades flashing in rapid succession. Three sharp slashes cut across Austin's torso—left diagonal, right diagonal, horizontal. Austin's body recoils with each strike, his defensive posture crumbling. Blood blooms across his shirt in three clean lines.

Panel 5:Austin drops to his knees, breathing heavily, hands pressed against his bleeding torso. His eyes are wide with shock and pain. Joker stands above him, both blades raised horizontally at shoulder height, preparing the final strike. The arena is silent except for Austin's ragged breathing.

Panel 6:Joker delivers one final horizontal slash across Austin's chest. Austin's body convulses and falls backward onto the canvas, unmoving. Blood spreads across the ring floor. Joker stands over the corpse, his twin blades still held at his sides, breathing steadily. His face is emotionless.

Narrator:The AAA SQUAD IS FINISHED

PAGE 2

Panel 1:Inside the club's upper corridors, Creed Rivers stands pressed against a concrete corner, his Creeds magnum blaster pistol raised and ready. His jaw is clenched, eyes scanning the hallway ahead. Shadows from neon signage flicker across his face. The air is thick with tension.

Panel 2:Joker's silhouette appears at the far end of the corridor. His right arm flicks outward with lethal precision—one of his twin blades rotates through the air in a spinning arc directly at Creed. The blade cuts through the darkness like a gleaming threat.

Panel 3:Creed's body shifts right by inches. The blade whistles past his head, so close the air displacement ruffles his hair. It embeds itself into the wall behind him with a sharp metallic thunk. Creed's eyes never leave Joker's position.

Panel 4:Creed pulls a smoke grenade from his belt and hurls it down the corridor. The canister bounces and detonates, releasing thick white smoke that fills the hallway in seconds. Creed's cybernetic eyes glow a faint blue as they activate, cutting through the haze to reveal thermal signatures. He moves forward slowly, weapon raised, searching.

Panel 5:Through Creed's thermal vision, the corridor appears in shades of blue and orange. Creed moves cautiously, his heat signature visible in the center of the image. The corridor appears empty. His breathing is controlled but his shoulders are tense.

Narrator:Where is he?

Panel 6:Joker's heat signature flares suddenly in the thermal display, moving fast from the right side. His red-orange form closes in rapidly toward Creed's position. The thermal image shows Joker's arm raised, his remaining blade gleaming.

PAGE 3

Panel 1:Creed and Joker collide in the smoke. Their bodies clash with brutal force. Creed's Creeds magnum blaster pistol is knocked from his grip and skitters across the floor, disappearing into the haze. Both men grapple, their silhouettes locked together, moving through the white smoke like shadows.

Panel 2:Creed twists and sidesteps as Joker's blade slashes past his face. The blade cuts the air with a sharp whistle. Creed pivots left, then right, his hands up in a defensive posture, reading Joker's movements and countering. Sweat glistens on his face.

Panel 3:Creed spots an opening as Joker commits to a wide slash. Creed steps in and delivers a sharp, angled kick directly at Joker's wrist. The impact is perfect—Joker's blade spins from his grip and flies down the corridor. Joker's face shows surprise for a split second.

Panel 4:Creed follows up with a powerful roundhouse kick aimed at Joker's midsection. The impact drives Joker backward and down. His body hits the floor hard, the wind knocked from his lungs. Creed immediately sprints toward where he last saw his gun, his footsteps echoing.

Panel 5:Creed's hand closes around the grip of his Creeds magnum blaster pistol. He spins, weapon raised, aiming back toward where Joker fell. But Joker is already on his feet, moving fast, closing the distance between them. His face is a mask of cold determination.

PAGE 4

Panel 1:Joker and Creed collide grapple. Joker's arm locks around Creed's gun arm, pinning it against Creed's body. His other arm wraps around Creed's neck in a chokehold. Creed's face reddens as he struggles, his free hand clawing at Joker's arm, fighting to stay conscious. His vision begins to darken at the edges.

Narrator:Joker gets the best of Creed and locks in a rear chokehold.

Panel 2:Creed's vision swims, darkness creeping in from the corners. His body is going limp. Then something ignites in his eyes—raw survival instinct. He forces his legs to push off the ground, driving both their bodies backward with explosive force. Joker, still latched on, is dragged along. A window frame appears ahead.

Narrator:Creed spots a nearby window..a way out…

Panel 3:At the last second, Creed twists his body hard to the right. Joker's back and head take the full impact first as they crash through the window in an explosion of glass shards. Both men fall through the air, silhouetted against the neon-lit night sky, tumbling downward. Broken glass sparkles around them.

Narrator:Before passing out Creed carries Joker on his back and hurls both Joker and hiself out of the window

Panel 4:They hit the street hard. Concrete cracks beneath the impact. Creed lands on top of Joker, his body absorbing less of the shock due to the positioning. Joker lies motionless beneath him, gasping, his body broken and battered. Creed rolls off and onto his back, breathing heavily, ribs heaving. Above them, the neon sign of Club Noche flickers red and blue.

Narrator:Creed lands on Joker breaking his own fall, along with Jokers ribs…

Panel 5:Creed pushes himself up onto his elbows, then stands unsteadily. He catches his breath, his chest rising and falling. He scans the street, then spots his Creeds magnum blaster pistol lying a few feet away on the pavement. He walks toward it with deliberate, measured steps, his eyes never leaving Joker's prone form.

Panel 6:Creed stands over Joker, gun raised and steady. Joker is slumped against the brick wall of Club Noche, neon light flickering across his bloodied face. His breathing is shallow, labored. His eyes meet Creed's with a strange clarity despite the pain.

Joker: So what is this. A killer pretending to be a cop?

Narrator:Creed doesn't answer.

Panel 7:Joker's face softens slightly. A tired, almost resigned laugh escapes his lips. His eyes close briefly, then open again, looking past Creed toward the neon sign above.

Joker: Guess it had to end someday... I'm sorry, Slik.

Panel 8:Creed raises the Creeds magnum blaster pistol. His arm is steady, his face emotionless. The barrel points directly at Joker's chest. Joker's body is completely still, accepting.

Panel 9:Three muzzle flashes erupt from the barrel. The shots are sharp and final. Joker's body jolts with each impact, blood blooming on his chest. His eyes go dark. His head tilts slightly to the side. He is dead.

Narrator:It's over. The Joker is dead.
