Absolute Luthor / Joker

In 2013, DC Comics launched a single oversized issue pairing its two greatest villains in a stark, psychological exploration by writer and artist Lee Bermejo. This prestige-format story reimagines Lex Luthor and the Joker as darkly complex figures, stripping away the superhero spectacle to focus on their twisted philosophies and the void they fill in each other's lives. Bermejo's hyper-detailed, cinematic artwork makes this a visually arresting and quietly unsettling character study, standing as a unique, self-contained entry in the publisher's Absolute line.
