The Joker: His Greatest Jokes #[nn]
In "The Cross Country Crimes!", the Joker upends the status quo by striking at the heart of federal law enforcement in Washington D.C., leaving the Caped Crusaders scrambling as he vanishes into the open road. With the G-Man down and the nation on edge, the Joker sets off on a cross-country spree, daring Batman to keep pace. Written by Bill Finger and illustrated by Bob Kane, with inks by Jerry Robinson and George Roussos, and lettered by George Roussos, this 2019 DC tale captures the chaos of the Joker’s earliest reign of absurdity. The cover by Jim Lee and Scott Williams perfectly encapsulates the menace and motion of the chase.
