Jim Gordon finally comes face to face with the Joker, but Vengeance, Daughter Of Bane, and the Court Of Owls are hot on his tail!The final volume of Joker brings all the plot threads home to roost, along with some fun diversions too。 Issue 10 is a flashback story set just after the Killing Joke with some lovely Francesco Francavilla art, before we get back to the main story for the rest of the volume。 Giuseppe Camuncoli steps in as series artist, which is surprising since I can't remember the la Jim Gordon finally comes face to face with the Joker, but Vengeance, Daughter Of Bane, and the Court Of Owls are hot on his tail!The final volume of Joker brings all the plot threads home to roost, along with some fun diversions too。 Issue 10 is a flashback story set just after the Killing Joke with some lovely Francesco Francavilla art, before we get back to the main story for the rest of the volume。 Giuseppe Camuncoli steps in as series artist, which is surprising since I can't remember the last time he drew a DC book that wasn't Hellblazer。The ultimate resolution of the story is kind of as you'd expect - we all knew when this started that Gordon wasn't going to kill the Joker, but the journey to get there is still well executed, and suitably chaotic for a book involving the Joker。 It shows that Jim can go there if he needs to, but he won't give the Joker the satisfaction of knowing that he won。A Joker ongoing was always going to be a strange experiment, but I think Tynion IV and his artistic companions have managed to craft something well worth checking out across the last fifteen issues, even moreso than I expected from them。 。。。more

Joker ends on a bit of a weaker note but still solid。 Basically we get everything tied up。 Who's behind this all is revealed and it's not that hard to guess。 But just because we find out who it is, doesn't mean the final actions can't count for something。 As Jim talks to Bruce about what happened, revealing what happened to the JOker, we get some pretty cool "oh snap" moments。 But overall it felt like the story wrapped up too quick。 That we had more to tell but we never got it, and that's a sham Joker ends on a bit of a weaker note but still solid。 Basically we get everything tied up。 Who's behind this all is revealed and it's not that hard to guess。 But just because we find out who it is, doesn't mean the final actions can't count for something。 As Jim talks to Bruce about what happened, revealing what happened to the JOker, we get some pretty cool "oh snap" moments。 But overall it felt like the story wrapped up too quick。 That we had more to tell but we never got it, and that's a shame。 But I still enjoyed it and landed on a 3。5 to end it。 。。。more

Damit habe ich nicht gerechnet。 Als ich irgendwann las, dass es eine Joker-Miniserie geben würde, in der der größte Feind Batmans um die Welt gejagt wird, hab ich vermutlich müde abgewunken。 Als die deutsche Veröffentlichung näher rückte und klar wurde, dass es der einstige Polizeichef James Gordon ist, der den Joker schnappen will, weil er von einem mysteriösen Geldgeber dafür bezahlt wird, hatte man doch wieder meine Aufmerksamkeit。 Ein alter Mann jagt … einen Wal, wenn man so will。 Die Figur Damit habe ich nicht gerechnet。 Als ich irgendwann las, dass es eine Joker-Miniserie geben würde, in der der größte Feind Batmans um die Welt gejagt wird, hab ich vermutlich müde abgewunken。 Als die deutsche Veröffentlichung näher rückte und klar wurde, dass es der einstige Polizeichef James Gordon ist, der den Joker schnappen will, weil er von einem mysteriösen Geldgeber dafür bezahlt wird, hatte man doch wieder meine Aufmerksamkeit。 Ein alter Mann jagt … einen Wal, wenn man so will。 Die Figur Gordon wurde oft vom Joker gequält, physisch wie psychisch。 2022 ist diese Miniserie im Abstand einiger Monate komplett auf Deutsch erschienen。 Gerade habe ich den letzten Band fertig gelesen。 Und das wirklich mit angehaltenem Atem。 Solche abseitigen ungewöhnlichen Projekte, die OHNE Batman auskommen, bergen Risiken。 Das Zugpferd fehlt und ehrlicherweise ist der Joker selbst auch selten zu sehen。 Dafür bekommt der in die Jahre gekommene Polizeichef genug Raum。 Und eine gute Weiterentwicklung。 Schlüssig, nachvollziehbar und authentisch。 Kurzum: Das hier ist eine Figurenentwicklung im Stile einer echten Reise, ohne Superhelden und vielleicht nicht mal einen menschlichen Helden。 Das ist mutig und verdammt gut konstruiert - im allerbesten Sinne。 Ich hab’s in noch keiner Kritik gelesen, aber ich könnte mir vorstellen, dass das hier ein moderner Klassiker ist, auf dessen Handlung man in Jahrzehnten noch neue Geschichten aufbaut。 。。。more

*Review is for all 3 volumesBait and switch that has been normalized over the last few years -- It may be called 'Joker' but he's not even a tertiary character in the story - instead you'll be forced to read about a string of uninteresting, super-stronk, spunky, Mary-Sue clones。 *Review is for all 3 volumesBait and switch that has been normalized over the last few years -- It may be called 'Joker' but he's not even a tertiary character in the story - instead you'll be forced to read about a string of uninteresting, super-stronk, spunky, Mary-Sue clones。 。。。more

Filled to the brim with weird rich cannibals, arm ripping clones, and pipe smoking former police comissioners, this story never fails to throw you for a loop。 It's amazing how you can survive a bowie knife to the chest and still be raring to get back into the field。 Somebody is SUPER lucky。How did this series last 15 issues? Lots of character exposition and self narration doesn't hurt。 Plus, there's a solid 'B' story。 In fact, if you wanted to read up on Punchline and learn more of her origins, Filled to the brim with weird rich cannibals, arm ripping clones, and pipe smoking former police comissioners, this story never fails to throw you for a loop。 It's amazing how you can survive a bowie knife to the chest and still be raring to get back into the field。 Somebody is SUPER lucky。How did this series last 15 issues?

Answer: Give them $$$ and a mysterious society to chase downBonus: Vengeance will knock your block off!Bonus Bonus: The Network isn't nearly as ominous as it should be。 Workshop the name, guys。 。。。more

Lumping in another series read as digital floppies into one review。 It's gotten kind of frustrating trying to track beginning dates, but I'm getting better at tracking completion dates。This was not a series I expected to like, nor to finish。 I did not expect to see in some ways Joker sidelined, and to have to work so well。 Hell, I'm not that fond of the character。 What worked very well was that the tale is really about Jim Gordon's journey。 What does a man do when he's no longer a cop, his night Lumping in another series read as digital floppies into one review。 It's gotten kind of frustrating trying to track beginning dates, but I'm getting better at tracking completion dates。This was not a series I expected to like, nor to finish。 I did not expect to see in some ways Joker sidelined, and to have to work so well。 Hell, I'm not that fond of the character。 What worked very well was that the tale is really about Jim Gordon's journey。 What does a man do when he's no longer a cop, his nightmare still runs free, and then someone offers you essentially unlimited fund to go track down and kill your nightmare。Pretty tempting offer, but maybe you better be careful about deals made with a devil?This becomes a globe spanning tale and one with multiple conspiracies。Tynion continues to turn out very enjoyable material。 。。。more
