ComicBook/TheQuestion is a Creator/CharltonComics character created by Creator/SteveDitko that was incorporated into the Franchise/DCUniverse in the 1980s after DC purchased Charlton. In the 2007 series ''ComicBook/FiftyTwo'' the original Question, Vic Sage, died of lung cancer [[LegacyCharacter and was replaced by]] [[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries Renee]] [[ComicBook/GothamCentral Montoya]].

!!What makes the Question funny? [[ArcWords Good question]].

* The issue-wide inside joke of the Question picking up a copy of ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}'', and developing an instant fascination for Rorschach--even to the point of considering him for a role model!
--> '''The Question:''' ''(Narration)'' What would Rorschach do? ''(Puts on mask)'' [[LetsGetDangerous He'd kick ass.]]
** Alas, this doesn't go too well, and...
--> '''Bad Guy:''' Any last words?
--> '''The Question:''' Yeah. Rorschach sucks.
* When ComicBook/{{Batwoman}} was the headline character for ''ComicBook/DetectiveComics'' for 2009-2010 ComicBook/TheQuestion became the second-feature. When the Huntress guest-starred to help Renee investigate [[TheSyndicate a wide-ranging sex-trafficing operation]] Huntress suggested they bring in a third party to assist in the electronic tracking of their opponents. When the Question asks who they should bring in, Huntress explains [[ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey that she knows somebody who can help]]. When the Question finally meets Oracle, whom she had worked with once or twice before [[VoiceWithAnInternetConnection but never really met]], the revelation of her identity nearly knocks Renee off her feet.
-->"Commissioner Gordon's daughter? Commissioner ''Gordon's'' daughter? Commissioner Gordon's ''daughter?''"
* When Renee is forced to work with her old partner, Harvey Bullock, he deduces her identity through the power of the MaleGaze.
-->"You think just 'cause you played for the other team I never noticed you had a nice caboose?"
* During ''ComicBook/FiftyTwo'', the original Question and Renee are investigating an abandoned warehouse and Renee suggests looking for a hidden lever or trap door. Question jokes about whether they're in "D&D", but then Renee actually finds a trap door and they fall with Renee landing on top of him.
--> '''Question (dazed):''' "...elf needs food badly..."
* Pretty much all of the character's conspiracy theories in [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague Justice League Unlimited]]. The show caused the character to gain a lot of popularity, simply because every moment he had was either a CMOA or a CMOF. His first appearance, for example, contained this gem:
--> '''Supergirl''': What, do you go through my trash?
--> '''Question''': Please. I go through ''everybody's'' trash.
