About this Collection

This French collection gathers the complete 'Batman: Laughing Fish' storyline, originally published in Detective Comics #475-476 and Batman #297-298, along with other classic Batman tales from the late 1970s and early 1980s. The volume centers on the Joker's murderous schemes, including his attempt to poison Gotham's fish supply, and showcases the darkly humorous yet deadly nature of the Clown Prince of Crime. Published by Delcourt in 2000 as part of their 'Hors Série' line, this edition presents these stories in a single hardcover or trade paperback format for French-speaking readers.

In this standout 2000 issue from Delcourt, Batman confronts a chilling twist at Arkham Asylum when the Joker is replaced by a doppelgänger, setting off a deadly game that leads to a brutal attack on Commissioner Gordon’s home and the capture of his daughter Barbara. Written by Alan Moore and Janine Bharucha, with striking art by Brian Bolland and colorist John Higgins, the story unfolds in a nightmarish carnival setting where madness and violence collide. The cover by Brian Bolland captures the eerie, twisted tone of a tale that lingers long after the final punchline.
