Psyche of a mad man
Brilliant effort from Allan Moore, seemingly making two iconic characters feel fresh and new. Revealing the dark complexities of psychopath's motives is interesting...will you feel sympathetic...the storytelling here does definitely allow the reader to question their thoughts on The Joker.

A quick read which should have been read before watching the movie Joker.
“All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. That's how far the world is from where I am. Just one bad day.”

I think I had a problem with Joker shooting Barbara and taking photos.
It kind of feels out of step with the genre, it's just a bit too queasy for me to really enjoy.
