About this Collection

Cette édition spéciale célèbre les 75 ans du Joker en rassemblant le célèbre one-shot 'Batman: The Killing Joke' d'Alan Moore et Brian Bolland, accompagné de suppléments contextuels. Publiée par Urban Comics en 2014, elle offre une version anniversaire du récit fondateur qui explore les origines troubles du Clown Prince du Crime et son affrontement psychologique avec Batman.

A 19 EUR release from 2014, this special 75th-anniversary edition of Killing Joke features the legendary collaboration of Alan Moore and Jérôme Wicky, with Brian Bolland handling both interior art and cover pencils and inks. In a chilling twist, Batman confronts a doppelgänger of the Joker at Arkham Asylum, setting off a deadly game that leads to Barbara Gordon’s capture and a brutal psychological assault on Commissioner Gordon at a twisted carnival. The story unfolds with Bolland’s iconic visuals and precise lettering by Christophe Semal and Laurence Hingray, culminating in a final, haunting exchange between Batman and the Joker that lingers long after the last page.

Batman visits the Joker in Arkham Asylum only to discover he has been replaced by a double. As Batman attempts to track the villain down, the Joker shows up at the house of Commissioner Gordon where he promptly shoots Barbara and captures her father. The Joker takes Jim to a modified carnival where he tries to drive him mad (partially by showing him pictures of his naked and bleeding daughter). Batman arrives and starts beating on the Joker who attempts to reason with him in his own insane fashion. As things wrap up and the police arrive, the Joker finally tells Batman a joke that he gets.
