Gotham City has produced many dangerous criminals. But none of them is as unpredictable, cruel, and terrifyingly fascinating as the Joker.
In this uncompromising Batman thriller by Brian Azzarello and Lee Bermejo, for once the focus is not on the Dark Knight, but on his most notorious archenemy. And when the Clown Prince of Crime decides to reclaim his city, he’s sure to leave no stone unturned.
After his release from Arkham Asylum, the Joker returns to Gotham’s underworld. But during his absence, the balance of power has shifted—and he doesn’t like it one bit.
What follows is a bloody campaign through the city’s criminal underworld. With brutal violence, psychological terror, and his very own sense of humor, the Joker makes it clear that he has no intention of settling for a supporting role.
Always by his side is Jonny Frost, an up-and-coming gangster who wants to prove himself as the Joker’s new right-hand man.
But being close to the Clown Prince is a dangerous privilege. For with a man whose mood can shift at any moment from a friendly smile to murderous madness, loyalty is by no means a guarantee of survival.
This dark story is made particularly striking by Lee Bermejo’s hyperrealistic artwork, which brings Gotham’s grimy streets, its shady characters, and the unsettling Joker to life with extraordinary intensity.
Here’s what you can expect:
- An uncompromising Joker thriller: A brutal story about power, madness, and Gotham’s criminal underworld.
- By Brian Azzarello: A dark thriller from the acclaimed author of *Batman: Broken City*.
- Hyperrealistic artwork by Lee Bermejo: Striking images with extraordinary depth of detail.
- The Joker takes center stage: Experience Batman’s infamous nemesis from an unusual perspective.
- Jonny Frost as your companion: A gangster discovers just how dangerous it is to get too close to the Joker.
- Large-format XL hardcover edition: Measuring approximately 24 × 36 cm.
- High-quality special cover: A special feature for comic book collectors.
- Revised translation: The acclaimed classic in a newly revised German edition.
Batman Deluxe – Joker is no ordinary superhero adventure, but a relentless gangster thriller that plunges deep into the underbelly of Gotham City.
The combination of Azzarello’s uncompromising storytelling and Bermejo’s impressive artwork makes this comic a truly special experience. The extraordinary visual style is showcased particularly impressively in this massive XL hardcover edition.
A must-have for Batman fans, lovers of dark crime comics, and collectors of high-quality comic book editions.
After all, the Joker doesn’t need superpowers to strike fear into the hearts of Gotham. Most of the time, a smile is all he needs.
