Sorry, but no.

Using the crowbar as an example. It was part of the setting that Joke picked up to use as a club. It wasn't something he brought with him. It wasn't something that he routinely carries or even similar to something he routine carries. It was exactly like Batman throwing sand from where he's standing into someone's face.

From the stand point of fiction, and the fictographies these pages represent, mentioning or including "improvised weapons" as important, it really, really needs to be something that the character is routinely doing either by always carrying an assortment of non-weapon items that wind up being used as weapons or an explicit statement in-story that the character always sees the weapon potential of the non-weapon objects.

The need/threshold for inclusion of "improvised weapons" from the stand point of old-school pen-n-paper RPGs has always been lower since it is used to off-set accuracy and damage penalties.
