“Year of the Villain: The Joker”

In "Year of the Villain: The Joker," the Clown Prince of Crime breaks free from Arkham and recruits a young, unstable man to be his unlikely partner, dressing them both as Batman and Robin to patrol Gotham in a twisted crusade against crime. Written by John Carpenter and Anthony Burch, with bold artwork by Philip Tan and vibrant colors by Jay David Ramos, this issue redefines chaos with a disturbingly playful edge. The cover, also by Philip Tan, captures the eerie symmetry of their mismatched duo.
