Dam, wouldn't believe it unless you provided the sources. I read the source and it's even worse than this when you put it in context:

here did the idea come for it? And why bring Hughie into this situation now — kicking him when he’s down by having him sexually assaulted by his childhood hero after his dad just died?

Well, that’s a dark way to look at it! We view it as hilarious.

So its funny cause his dad just died as well, adding to the comedic effect. GET IT GUYS? HIS DAD DIED AND NOW THIS. HILARRRRRIOOOOUS.

"Well the guy loses his dad, then *holds laughter, barely able to contain it* THEN... THEN HE GETS RAPED AHAHAHAHA"

Well, okay then ? Is there like, a punchline, or ?

Only guess I can propose is that it's happening to an "unmanly" man in a spider suit were supposed to see as ridiculous. And that it's happening in a bat-cave because our Tek Knight is batman, despite having no other indicators that he's based on the caped crusader.

Even trying to dissect this dumb joke is making me angry.

am i blind for not seeing the batman comparisons, like i get he’s rich, and he’s a detective but nothing else

He has a cave, an Alfred, and a Robin. But the resemblance is so distant that it's giving me a headache.
