Review -
"Batman: The killing joke- the deluxe edition" is an extremely well thought out graphic novel and is considered a rare treat for devoted comic-book readers. The novel itself has many brillant traits , but the two that stand out the most to the naked eye, are: the amazing story that the writer has so gorgously put toghether. And the simply sublime artwork and inks which some may consider to be a work of genius. Both the writer and the artist should be proud of their works and consider it to be a work of art.
The "Killing Joke" graphic novel must be credited for being unique. It has divulged in great detail what almost no Batman story has done before- The mysterious and extremely sinister origins of The Joker! These (Yes "these" origins) are given in the form of the Joker's perspective. This allows the readers to gain a key aspect of the Joker's personality- When it comes to the past not even the "Clown Prince of Crime" wants to look back.
However don't think this is night of crime is going the be easy on the caped crusader! Joker has carefully laid traps for "The Dark Knight" and the way Batman attempts to deal with these traps , will ultimitly reveal who Batman is at heart and if there really IS a spark of darkness inside his soul.
Verdict - 5/5
For everyone who collects Batman comics or even just like the characters of the Joker & Batman, "Batman: The killing joke- The deluxe edition" is the ultimate "Treasure chest of comics" and this magnifacient piece of literature which along with it's writers and artists deserves a place next to the Mona Lisa.
