What’s fan fiction about it

I mean his entire career, but about this one: Barbara and Jason kissing, Joker making Joe Chill the new Joker, Joker being a role that people take instead of a single human being, TKJ origin being canonical so Joker has an actual family now (and a son)...

But in the end, I think Johns teased us about the three jokers in Justice League before actually thinking what he was going to do with it. So he wrote himself into a corner.

How’s any of this is fan fiction? In TKJ it already gave us the wife and son angle, if TKJ point was that everything joker is a lie then what’s the point of that comic? Expect it wasn’t, the one bad day was the fact that joker wife and son died, but the twist her makes it interesting, it could add new meaning to the future of these characters. Hell they can make joker son a hero or a villain.

ok buddy

KesheR has no understanding of the comic 😂 you’re a bum

How come? Joker still thinks they are dead so that one day is still relevant.

I disagree with you, it's a stand alone story so that people can either accept it as continuity or not. It's a Black Label story so it sort of has to be self contained. It is leaps and bounds ahead of what is out there for Batman that was written by King.

Hey thanks for commenting! I understand your point, but with how this played out, it would make no difference if it was in continuity or not, so for being a “black label” or elseworlds story, what was the point? John’s didn’t make one.

Dummy the real joker is the comedian 😂. Can’t read ha?

Also King understands the characters more than Geoff Johns shows how stupid you are

Also the point of the killing joke was that the joker is an unreliable narrator. Also the one bad day thing isn’t pointless since he still thinks they are dead.

Geoff Johns writes fan fiction.

Yet you can’t say what’s fan fiction about this

@VicSav So since you have zero arguments& didn’t understand this basic story you have to insult me? Or are you just butthurt, because I criticized your favorite writer& that’s why you act all aggressive & emotional?

i agree with most of your review, except for the part where you said Geoff Johns is "worse than King". .... NO, my friend!!! ain't NO ONE worse than King!! that guy's the worst of the worst!!

@The Dark Knight Detective - thank you! ... OH! absolutely. ....i may not care for Johns' writing on Batman, but his Superman, Aqualman and Green Lantern writing are great!!! he has a good sense of how to tell uplifting inspiring stories. i've not yet read his Flash. but i hear good things. ... Tom King on the other hand likes to peddle stories about depression and PTSD, as if he'd not already outed himself as a one-trick pony ages ago. he just writes every character as pathetic and sad.

@Darkseid24 you’re a bum. You can’t read and understand the comic how sad 😂

Agree this story should not be considered canon.

What not enough explosions for you? What exactly would you like? More Harley Quinn or perhaps an all female cast? This book was pretty much damn near flawless.

Lol the whole point of the killing joke was that Joker was an unreliable narrator. The whole multiple choice and it takes one bad day doesn’t change here. The comic if anything reassures his origin. But you clearly didn’t understand the killing joke.

@VicSav Lol how about you go read Killing Joke again instead of defending this shitty comic on every single person's review who didn't give it a positive rating.

^ didn't want to be mean to him when he was name calling and being super snobby under my review. But all he seems to do is treat this comic like the second coming of christ, despite the fact that it's almost like people have different opinions

But you stated something wrong, you said he wasn't an asshole before the one bad day in killing joke, but the comic explicitly said to not to trust joker as a narrator, hence the multiple choice. So he was never meant to be telling the whole truth, they even explored it in The dark knight movie, the Joker movie, cuz it came from killing joke the idea of unreliable narration by Joker. You can dislike the comic but saying something wrong isn’t gonna help form an objective opinion.

He never claimed that he wasn't an asshole. Clearly that's established here as a retcon. What he said was that idea invalidates the entirety of Killing Joke, which it clearly does. It ruins the one bad day idea that Moore introduced in that book. It's basically saying that the Joker was always sinister and evil, when the whole point of Killing Joke is that anyone can turn into the Joker, all it takes is one bad day.

Also it ruins the multiple choice origin for the Joker by basically confirming that yes he was married to someone and was going to have a child. Mystery solved I guess. The Joker has no mystery behind him anymore. That's a good thing I guess? In my opinion, having the Joker have an unconfirmed origin was one of the best things about him

Nah, he wasn’t evil before that, he had signs of it, he wasn’t having a healthy relationship so he lied about it and that one bad day completely transformed him to it, made him go all out and embrace who he is. Three jokers said he was kind of abusive to them and they didn’t want to be part of that family. It doesn’t say he was evil or an asshole, it was just that he wasn’t true to what happened. They just wanted to dump him.

Jokers "one bad day" was ALWAYS BS and hes been proven wrong on it many mant times including in TKJ. He tried to do the same thing to Gordon and it DIDNT WORK. Joker was never an innocent victim, he made bad decisions and did bad things long before that vat of acid.

You dumb mf in JL, Batman was shocked that there are 3 jokers, he knew about the joker name but didn’t know there are 2 others. The fact you missed that makes your review null, and joker wife and kid being alive is genius.
