Launched with stark, THE KILLING JOKE is Alan Moore's fantastic reflection on the razor-thin line amongst rational sanity and craziness, boldness and villainy, drama and tragedy. As per the grinning engine of franticness and mayhem known as The Joker, that is all that isolates the normal from the psychotic. Freed once again from the confines of Arkham Asylum, he's out to demonstrate his deranged point. What's more, he is going to utilize Gotham City's top cop, Commissioner Jim Gordon and his splendid and delightful girl Barbara to do it.
