In "This One'll Kill You, Batman, Chapter 1: And If I Laugh...", the Joker escapes custody with a twisted new plan: he infects Batman with a deadly laughing virus that will kill him in three days unless an antidote is found. With time running out and the only man who knows how to make the cure brutally murdered, Batman must race against the clock—while fighting the very urge to laugh—before the Joker’s final joke becomes his last.
