Sean "Diddy" Combs Responded To Warner Bros. Alleged Cease And Desist With An Epic Batman Costume, And People Have A Lot To Say About It

He is vengeance. He is the night. He is Sean "Diddy" Combs!

So, last year, the 53-year-old hip-hop mogul had one of the best Halloween costumes when he dressed as the clown prince of crime — Joker.

In fact, the costume was so on point that this year, Diddy claimed that he received a legal letter saying that he was no longer allowed to dress up as the Batman villain.

<div><p>"Breaking Halloween News! Last year, after I did the Black Joker, I got a bunch of emails from the studio telling me not to be the Joker anymore, that I was breaching the trademark. So I don't know what I'm going to be this year," Diddy said in video posted his Instagram.</p></div><span> @diddy / Via <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/CzFNSOyrj7C/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=134246de-9fad-41a6-a120-6a929094614d" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:instagram.com;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">instagram.com</a></span>

"But I will say to the motherfucker that took all this time. We talking about sending me — this is 64 papers. I'm not even going to show the business on the papers. To tell me not to be the Joker, you win. I'm not going to be the Joker this year because your ass had enough time to fuck up my motherfucking Halloween. Now watch."

To double down on how serious they were, the "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down" rapper also talked about Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. allegedly banning him from dressing up as the Joker for Halloween on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

"Last year I was the Joker, and I actually got a letter from the studio that I can no longer be the Joker because they said it broke their trademark that I did it too good. I swear I have this letter," Diddy told Jimmy. "I have this letter from Warner Brothers."

"Tomorrow, Warner Brothers lawyers, can you see me? Put this camera on me right here. Head of legal, tomorrow, watch what I do."

And look what he did! While he technically didn't dress up as Joker again, he opted for his archnemesis, Batman aka The Dark Knight.

But Diddy didn't stop there. He went all out with a full production that could rival the big-budget studios, and he made it clear he was coming for them.

In a video posted to Instagram, The Darkest Knight (his title, not mine) received a pep talk from a mini Lucious Fox before he paid an intimidating visit to a studio exec demanding the end of the SAG-AFTRA strike.

Diddy didn't pull any punches with this over-the-top response, and the citizens of Gotham City (aka the fans) have a lot to say about his epic clapback:

Diddy I swear if you end this strike you will officially be my favorite person forever!! lemme find out you got the key to the industry @ sagaftra we got a new president!
