A collection of good sites related to jokers that summarize the careers from the headwaters of Joker to the present.

This is a surprisingly interesting and interesting consideration of how many options and confusions have the ability to accept the image and continue to be one of the strongest pop myths. For the honor of this book, she is not afraid of such a precedent. In fact, Joker has been a rudimentary joke in his family for many years. To prevent this comment from the 1950s comic where the joker devastates his huge riser.

(Note: This is not fiction. I'm not so interesting)

Do you see my riser and grin? Let's show it! I'll show you how many risers have the opportunity to arrange a joker! The accusation of this "riser" will stumble on the idea of ​​a new adventure in Gotham, a criminal city, and regrets the day he calls the text "riser"! I will understand the biggest riser of all year and make them crime! Look at this illustration, a huge riser of an advanced era is drawn!

I want you to be called a notorious child, but this is a catastrophic and unnecessary sexy hint (disclaimer: I can smoke the devil's grass, but I wrote this. I can't).

Apart from that, the questions that I had been worried about for a long time came up. Join dein Young Men runs a joker every time. To be honest, why? If they are really religious, this is just a sad approach of ambition. "Yes, it's pretty reckless to follow the footprints for this man in a clown suit, but I can't afford to wear a suit and create unimaginable shit." 。 You are already growing honestly toward the stars.

But if you think, if this young man is an elemental mercenary, this is even more sad. Nobody hires you, so the clicks are not counted, how bad weather is needed, almost every time his own minions have been killed, and Batman's lamin has been searching for him all the time. I look at the way he needs, as it looks like a great option. He really speaks for himself: "Well, taking the devil, I didn't want to help the joker steal a toy store, but the child needs orthodontics."

Anyway, this is a sad atmosphere. I'm trying to read a book about this man.

This book "The Best Story in Joker History" was satisfactory. It is divided into about three parts: 1s t-firs t-yea r-late r-the last quarte r-the last quarte r-the last quarter of the manga about the joker, the detectiv e-manga lead. Continue to 70-.

In the first quarter, in the injured situation, the joke r-killer, while we are waiting, all of his casualties die in his joke r-poison and gas. These situations are not bad.

The average, exceptional share, is very kind to the boys who do not kill, including the fact that the joker is not threatened to destroy. The huge situation declares that the joker will kidnap something and tries to arrange it. Almost all are based on Dajare from his letter. Batman in these situations is a hero who wanders around the city hall and is the main class of criminal science in the Gotham Research Institute.

The last situation is even darker. The joker is again a murderer, Batman is more dark, more obscene, a long ear on the hood, a macintosh on his back, and looks like a large bat.

The latter, of course, was confused not only in the best situation, but also with the eggplant of things in the frame, which I had no opportunity to identify it. For example, I had no opportunity to understand the scene where the joker was pushing my ally, and I happened to return to the previous page and recognized the track in it.

Overall, it's an interesting book, but the middle stage was boring, then there were some similar situations and a little plot. The opening and the cover are elements.

Once upon a time, it was a purple book of leather dressed by my uncle, but I had no chance to read it for a long time. This is not a grudge to the work, but a rudimentary explanation that there is a chance to spend time due to the nature of anthology. This will be a good reading for a hardcore fan of a joker like me.

The tone of the comic is slightly consistent. Overall, it is a Golden Age's work, and there is no unnecessary ruthlessness or excessive gloomy, but there are still indiscriminate murder. It is an unnatural balance between the evolved joker's calm recklessness and the fading character of the old generation joker. This is not the whole situation, but if you are looking for a way to see almost all different ages, we recommend this book.

In fact, it was strange that he drew the joker the most in his first event (Batman#1) in 1940. From the mi d-1950s to the 1960s, the joker was reborn as an unpretentious clown. As we arranged in the situation "Laughing Man", he mentioned the first situation of the joker and was rescued.

It was terrible, to put it too plainly. It was interesting to acknowledge the character's entire journey, but it left me perplexed. That's probably why some scenes were chosen for this collection. The origin of the Joker (2007), which is essentially Murderous Joke, is only two pages long. Also, some situations required background knowledge because of events that came before it, or because the character was already created in the specific issue chosen for this collection. So, in some situations it was unimaginably difficult and confusing to look up. The flaw that has existed throughout the decades of playing the Joker is that, on the one hand, the character is cohesive enough with what you associate with him, and on the other, the comics of that time were written in a completely different way. The artistic approach was not to my liking, rather helpless, and somehow comically awkward. In addition, there was a text bubble (usually used to direct the scene) in the corner of each page that told me what was actually possible to see on this page. For example, it said "He mowed the cards" and the illustration showed a hand melting the cards. Overall, I didn't enjoy reading it, but the pages of words explaining the characters' situations were really fascinating. In terms of joint difficulty, I rated 3 out of 18 stories higher than 3🌟, and I reflected that in the average rating.

Batman was reprinted in a 100-page epic in the 1970s, and I wanted a bright situation that was not human. This book, which stands on my bookshelf, fits in better than any other book.

I thought I had basically read it already: but I read it now. This is a great anthology that ends with the tip of "The Killing Joke" and "The Return of the Dark Knight," which casts a further shadow, "Death of the Family," and the characters are as old as it seems. There are germs and quirks. There are a lot of surprising dogmatism. Until the mid-1960s, the writer was not enough, but he became even more famous in the fandom and science world. Bill Finger in particular wrote a lot here, but we don't have a complete list of his work or the work of other writers because we lost such practice in time. What to do: Gently recommend.

This collection is notable not because the situations it contains are all sublime, but because it highlights a wonderful historical and educational approach to the Joker in comics. Posted in 1990, this collection covers 50 years of Joker situations. And, of course, there are some great situations here. Between Lovers

What could be better than a collection of Batman classics? A collection of Joker classics! More fun than Lex Luthor, more than Galactus, more than Thanos! This is a really great book, and I wanted to have it and read it (I've had this book for years, so it's a shame it took so long), but like good wine, I think I had to wait a while to review this book. My only complaint is that there's a lot of Golden Age Joker in this book. My favorite is the 1980s Joker, who is a little more manly and dark, but still pretty feisty, a little silly but witty. With this Joker, I don't know how far he'll go, whether he'll do it with a saw or with a saw. It's a shame that "A Death in the Family" and "The Killing Joke" are not included in this book, but in addition to maintaining their popularity with fans, it's clear that these titles are better viewed as separate stories and that's all they're focused on. I can respect that. In short, I love this book. I'm glad DC took the time to make a beautiful leather bound edition (because I love beautiful books), I love the story, I love the plot, and I love the story. 13 books 720 subscribers

The Joker comic collection that came out when Tim Burton's first movie was released. I lived in a small town in Japan and was lucky enough to have a friend send me this book. It was the most precious thing in Moji, Japan.

An excellent overview of the Joker's stories in Batman. The first one is of course sinister, and the later ones are stupid. But as I said (review below), I'm more interested in the Joker as a character than in the plot or his place in the story. In fact, I just enjoy watching him and making up my own stories about this character.

There are good and bad Joker stories, but aside from that, this is a great historical resource. It's fascinating in itself to see how the Joker (and the comics themselves) have changed over the decades.

As a "murder joke" and "Batman" who knew the joker on these advanced traditional movies. The other episodes were not only manga, but also Jack-Nicholson, the late Bestseller-a great book, a screen version drawn by Joa Kin-Phoenix so far.

The best depiction of jokers in video games and MULTS is Mark-Hamill. If his name is, for example, a reason why he is familiar with the Skywalker and the Jedi. Yes, he still loves his voice and is completely popular in the joker himself.

In comics and movies, jokers are drawn as an excellent maniac murderer, and gags often lead to death and injury.

Until then, he did not know his own career at the beginning. You will not seriously understand the early career of him and Batman, like other dignified heroes and attackers.

This book looks like a manga, and a rare situation is drawn without waste. What I remember was a situation where the joker was eating a hedgehog costume (yes, I didn't think) and had the opportunity to shoot thorns when threatened. He ran away and wore a dragonfly costume (this is not an idea).

These are only a few of the situations of books that will not spend time in front of the book. If you like comics and jokers, it's worth reading.

It is impossible to yearn for the joker, hate, and like it. Joker is absolutely reckless character. And-is a very weak sentence to define this quite strange character. In fact, he doesn't understand who he is (or who did it), and the reader will not know the truth of the joker. Over the years, the seats get better and cleaner. In short, if you like a character called Joker, it's a manga you should read!

Although it was two graphic love I received during my childhood, it was very shocking, and the vast amount of materials up to that time was clear. Although there is no size and depth of the story comparable to the first volume of the best story in Batman, the second half of the Joker's "crazy murderer" and the second half of the joker's "regression to a terrible thing". It is very well shown by each era. The middl e-term series of Batman, including the status of the "notes Climinal", reminiscent of the times, giving this work an extraordinary and cumbiotic charm.

330 reaction It was the worst. "The greatest situation that talks about jokers" is an inextricable serial killer fucking polluted by comic management. Don't read. This will be two days that will never return in your life. 541 Review 16 followers

It's a great collection, but it's not absolute (we are claimed intro and auto). At least, I believe that individual introductions about the reason why the story was selected was all methods, not, but there is no way to be extended later.

These arcs are considered to be the most important collections, such as jockers-fish, as well as excellent cover and traditional conditions.
