Description Batman and Joker

I haven't posted much in a while, and when I saw this piece of artwork by 'Killing Joke' artist Brian Bolland, which is actually the cover to Joker : Last Laugh, I decided I'd give it a go So google that if you want to see the original Also I really like how these look in profile, even if Joker isn't strictly speaking in profile at all.

Anyway, this turned out quite well, I may tinker with it a little in a while, but for now it looks pretty cool, I think.

The Joker goes down to easy with the writers they have on Batman these days. Before he was always a match for Batman in stories like The Laughing Fish and The Joker's Five Way Revenge. What happened to his madman's strength? Also he always seems to be playing second fiddle to crappy characters like Hush, whom he would eat alive.

memorypalace In reply to doctor3uk [2012-01-05 18:54:17 +0000 UTC]

I know, he's not the force he was in, say, the 1980's, which was the character's peak, in my view.
The thing is, DC need to encourage new characters, to keep things fresh; plus the more we see Joker, the more we see him beaten. I tend to think Joker should mainly be used in occasional, big stories, where there's a lot a stake and the outcome is more in doubt

Nice! Love your Joker here - suave yet derranged! I almost feel sorry for him when I see him grinning after being beaten up by B-man, like, if you didn't know the context, Batman would be the bad guy.

memorypalace In reply to wonderlandmanga [2011-12-29 23:35:01 +0000 UTC]

Ha, you're right! I'm quite proud of Joker's expression here, it's always more fun to draw him with other expressions than just 'manic grin'
Oh, and thank you!

You're right, it's very similar to Joker's beating in Hush I hadn't even noticed.
