Welcome to the most overhyped Graphic novel of the year. Boring, pointless, and containing nothing interesting to say about The Joker either as an Icon or a Character. Boring, both over and under plotted, and with art that crosses the line from simply ugly to fucking stupid (Gotta Love 2 Fast 2 Furious Riddler).

Those hyping it as the next Killing Joke are kidding themselves.

Andy Brian Azzarello has lost his touch. 100 Bullets hasn't been good in years and he just seems to be bluffing his way around a story. I'm not really surprised this is terrible.


Drew Who has been hyping this as the next Killing Joke? Maybe your expectations were a little high, Azzarello is no Moore.


Draven Maddox Honestly, the reason why The Killing Joke is the definitive Joker story is because in it, they actually delve into the mentality of the Joker. In this trash you follow this no name thug.


Baby Monster #563 i preferred this to killing joke


Sarah Morgan Sandquist I'm glad to see another low review. I was shocked reading the raves of other reviewers, as this is meandering, dull and, as pointed out, has nothing to do with the Joker (in a particularly bad portrayal, anyway).
