Batman: The Man Who Laughs: The Deluxe Edition #[nn]
The Joker looms large on Doug Mahnke's cover — that wide, unsettling grin filling the frame as he holds up two playing cards bearing the silhouettes of Batman and his own jester self, a quiet threat wrapped in purple and green. This 2020 Deluxe Edition collects Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips's acclaimed story in a handsome oversized package worthy of its chilling subject matter. If you've been waiting for the definitive way to experience "The Man Who Laughs," this is it.
