| 46. Batman: The Killing Joke | 11 May 2021 | 00:31:02 | |
Aidan makes his return to Comic Misfits as he and Pedro chat all things about Alan Moore's classic storyline, Batman: The Killing Joke. Batman: The Killing Joke is a 1988 one-shot graphic novel featuring Batman and the Joker written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Brian Bolland. The Killing Joke provides an origin story for the supervillain the Joker, loosely adapted from the 1951 story arc "The Man Behind the Red Hood!". The Joker's origin is presented via flashback, while simultaneously depicting his attempt to drive Jim Gordon insane and Batman's desperate attempt to stop him. Created by Moore, Bolland, and Higgins as their own take on the Joker's source and psychology, the story became famous for its origin of the Joker as a tragic character; a family man and failed comedian who suffered "one bad day" that finally drove him insane. Moore stated that he attempted to show the similarities and contrasts between Batman and the Joker. The story's effects on the mainstream Batman continuity also included the shooting and paralysis of Barbara Gordon (Batgirl), an event that eventually leads her to develop the identity of Oracle.
