EDIT: All done! The comic was noteworthy!
Have fun! I was a bit underwhelming, tbh, but still a must read - most people say it’s a classic. I’m just weird.
It’s a classic in the sense that it was incredibly influential and original for its time. The serious joker/batman dynamic has been overplayed a lot since then, so reading The Killing Joke feels like more of what we come to expect out of a batman story.
What if you read the Bob Kane/Bill Finger stories?
Just curious.
Yeah, the rare case in which the art is better than Alan Moore’s story. I think even he had admitted that.
I’ve always thought it was pretty Frank Millar edgy, but I see, and never knew before but it doesn’t surprise me, that it’s Alan Moore so… It makes sense.
Don’t watch the movie
Agreed.
Ah nice, I’ve read it. This is my favorite quote: (spoilers)
Joker: “Knock knock”
Batman: “Who’s there?”
J: “Ima”
B: “Ima who?”
J: “I’m a going to kill you”
(They made the joker Italian in this one)
