Batman: The Killing Joke Deluxe: DC Black Label Edition

4.37 (199,450 ratings by Goodreads)

English

By (author): Alan Moore Brian Bolland

Critically acclaimed author Alan Moore redefined graphic novel story-telling with Watchmen and V for Vendetta. In Batman: The Killing Joke, he takes on the origin of comics' greatest super-villain, The Joker, and changes Batman's world forever.

ONE BAD DAY.

According to the grinning engine of madness and mayhem known as the Joker, that's all that separates the sane from the psychotic. Freed once again from the confines of Arkham Asylum, he's out to prove his deranged point. And he's going to use Gotham City's top cop, Commissioner Jim Gordon, and his brilliant and beautiful daughter Barbara to do it.

Now Batman must race to stop his archnemesis before his reign of terror claims two of the Dark Knight's closest friends. Can he finally put an end to the cycle of bloodlust and lunacy that links these two iconic foes before it leads to its fatal conclusion? And as the horrifying origin of the Clown Prince of Crime is finally revealed, will the thin line that separates Batman's nobility and the Joker's insanity snap once and for all?

Legendary writer Alan Moore redefined the superhero with Watchmen and V For Vendetta. In Batman: The Killing Joke, he takes on the origin of comics' greatest super-villain, the Joker--and changes Batman's world forever.

Stunningly illustrated, Batman: The Killing Joke The Deluxe Edition has been lushly recolored by artist Brian Bolland, presenting his original vision of this modern classic.

This new edition includes Batman: The Killing Joke and stories from Batman: Black and White #4 and Countdown #31, along with numerous Batman and Joker covers and sketches by Brian Bolland, including artwork only previously published in the Absolute edition! See more

About Alan MooreBrian Bolland

Alan Moore is perhaps the most acclaimed writer in the graphic story medium having garnered countless awards for works such as Watchmen V for Vendetta Swamp Thing and Miracleman. He is also the mastermind behind the America's Best Comics line through which he has created (along with many talented illustrators) The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Promethea Tom Strong Tomorrow Stories and Top Ten.After making his professional debut in 1975 Brian Bolland perfected his clean-line style and meticulous attention to detail on a series of popular strips for the British comics magazine 2000 AD most notably its signature feature Judge Dredd. He went on to illustrate the 12-issue maxiseries Camelot 3000 and Batman: The Killing Joke for DC before shifting his focus to work almost exclusively on cover illustrations. Since then he has earned a reputation as one of the best cover artists in the industry and his elegantly composed and beautifully rendered pieces have graced a host of titles including Animal Man Batman The Flash The Invisibles Wonder Woman and many more.
