Batman Confidential #23

The Joker dominates this cover in close-up, clad in a prison-orange jumpsuit and flashing that unsettling grin as he holds a small peanut up to his eye — a darkly comedic setup that ties directly to the "Joker on Trial" arc promised in the banner above. Stéphane Roux's cover art captures the Prince of Crime at his most theatrically menacing, his speech bubbles teasing a punchline as chilling as it is absurd. With Andrew Kreisberg, Scott McDaniel, and Andy Owens on the creative team, Batman Confidential #23 looks like a courtroom drama filtered through Gotham's most unpredictable lens.
