5 Best Joker Comics You Cannot Miss
If you are a batman fan then you must have heard about the famous villain of all villains – “The Joker”. There are plenty of people out there who actually think that Joker is actually more popular than batman himself and we will probably agree with that assessment. With Joaquin Phoenix’s “Joker” Movie releasing this week in theaters, let’s look at the most popular Joker comics you should not miss if you are a fan like us.
1. Batman – The man who Laughs
“Batman: The Man Who Laughs” is a one-shot comic written by Ed Brubaker with pencils by Doug Mahnke. The book tells the story of the first meeting between the Joker and Batman but in a post-Zero Hour continuity.
In some ways, this is a retelling of a classic story, but in another way, it’s really a reshaping of that classic origin story as told in a more modern setting. The first appearance of the Joker is certainly an amazing read, but bringing classic characters into the 21st-Century is often done best by revamps like this one, which makes it a must-read for anyone who calls themselves a fan of the Joker.

2) Batman: The Killing Joke
Presented for the first time with stark, stunning new coloring by Bolland, Batman: The Killing Joke is Alan Moore’s unforgettable meditation on the razor-thin line between sanity and insanity, heroism and villainy, comedy and tragedy.
“Batman: The Killing Joke” is one of the most controversial Batman stories ever told, and it’s all thanks to the visionary Alan Moore’s use of the Joker. In the book, the Joker decides to prove that a single bad day can turn a good man into a villain. This comic is one of the best joker comics of all times and gives a deep insight into the Joker. A must read.
