Horrors! Bruce Wayne is trying to scam a jewelry store and put the blame on poor Aunt Harriet? Or could it actually be the work of that mysterious master of disguises, False Face? Then, find out how crime really pays when the Clown Prince of Crime tries to downsize his mob in "The Joker's Layoff Riot."

It's not as funny as previous issues, but Parker makes great use of False Face and Peyer's exploration of just how much work goes into being the Joker made for a charming short story. Issue #7 isn't one of the strongest chapters in this series, but it's definitely a step back in the right direction after the weak Bookworm adventure. Read Full Review
