The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing #4
In "It's Not Funny Anymore [Part 4]," the Joker’s twisted game takes a shocking turn when he confesses a bizarre desire to start a family with Zatanna—only for her to respond with a spell that ensures no one else can bear his child. The consequences come swiftly and strangely, as the Joker begins to experience a transformation he never anticipated. Written by Matthew Rosenberg and illustrated with eerie precision by Francesco Francavilla, this issue blends psychological horror and dark comedy in a way only this series could deliver. The cover by Carmine Di Giandomenico captures the unsettling tone perfectly.
