Description: The Killing Joke, one of my favorite Batman stories ever, stirred a bit of controversy because the story involves the Joker brutally, pointlessly shooting Commissioner Gordon's daughter in the spine. This is a no-holds-barred take on a truly insane criminal mind, masterfully written by British comics writer Alan Moore. The art by Brian Bolland is so appealing that his depiction of the Joker became a standard and was imitated by many artists to follow.

Review Summary: This aint your parent's joker Date: 2008-12-19
 
Details: This book is a perfect representation of the Joker. He makes you laugh, then feel bad about what you're laughing at. This is such an intense tale of an absolutley brilliant maniac. The plan that he puts into action in this story is not for the children, esspecially when a certain someone's daughter gets plugged in the ribs. What follows is a "how to" on driving a father completely insane. The way it ends lets you know just how much Batman and the Joker love to hate eachother.

Review Summary: Moore/Bolland...? Can't miss... Date: 2008-11-25
 
Details: One of the best Batman stories ever, followed by the hand of one of the masters in comic book art. The best drawings of Batman I've seen. Great quality of this hardcover, too.
 
Review Summary: Great and entertaining Date: 2008-11-17
 
Details: This is a great book indeed.It really shows a side to comics that alot of people dont see everyday in their local stores and tv shows.Only thing I found dissapointing was the fact that the book was not long enough.Im the kind of person where when I start to get lost into the story,I cant get enough and need more.Im sure alot of people would agree with me when I say that.Overall a definite must have.
