In this collection you will find Batman Son of the Demon, and Batman the Killing Joke. Both of which are absolute classics, well worth reading. You also get to see a number of new characters introduced to Batman's Rogues Gallery. (The five stars hinges highly on The Killing Joke and the fact the collection is decent value for money).
Because it is a comprehensive collection of Batman from 1987-1988 the tone can vary widely from writer to writer. One story can be a Scooby-doo esque mystery of a ghost in a museum, the next will open on a brutally murdered young woman in a dumpster.
We also get a story of the first time Jason Todd met Dick Grayson, with an emotional confrontation between Dick and Bruce. Which was a pretty decent little story.
The story that introduced Scarface and the Ventriloquist was a bit too 90s for my taste, leaning really far into after school special about drugs and children.
We also got the introduction of KGBeast and the Ratcatcher. Both of which were pretty fun, although KGBeast in particular ends up feeling like a poor man's Bane, despite being introduced a number of years earlier. Ratcatcher is incredibly creepy, but that may have more to do with my distaste for rats than anything else.
The Corrosive Man is a pretty great introduction to Batman's Rogues Gallery. His story is violent and gory, really highlighting the grim, crime-ridden nature of Gotham.

This latest Batman volume of the DC Finest reprint series collects stories from Batman 413 through 422, Detective Comics 580 through 599, and two late 1980s original graphic novels: Batman: Son of the Demon and Batman: The Killing Joke. Like the volume before it, this Batman book has an absolute masterpiece in it, Moore and Bolland’s The Killing Joke (the previous DC Finest Batman book had Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s Batman: Year One; this volume follows along chronologically with that book). The other OGN is Mike W. Barr and Jerry Bingham’s Son of the Demon, an interesting story with decent art, but like Miller before him, Alan Moore is functioning on a whole different level with The Killing Joke. I am one of the few people who absolutely hates the original coloring on TKJ (by John Higgins), and I’m told it’s the version included here. It just seems overly garish to me. The other Batman and Detective stories are mainly by Jim Starlin and Alan Grant and John Wagner; the latter duo’s Detective Comics work has never been a personal fave—especially their new villain pair, Scarface and the Ventriliquist—but Norm Breyfogle’s art is nice, setting himself up as one of the premiere Bat-artists of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s. This is still the Jason Todd era of Batman, but both series seem to downplay him in the stories collected here. There’s one more Batman volume coming out this year, which features the Doug Moench/Gene Colan stories, another creative pairing that isn’t a personal fave on the Caped Crusader. I may pass on that one.

This collection was, for me, godsend. In my considerable Batman books collection, I am seriously lacking stories from the 80's era, an important time for Batman, where alot of important characters are introduced and important events take place. SO I have been really enjoying this "DC Finest" Batman collections, both from a collector and reader perspective.
Aside from the book's main draw, namely the excellent "The Killing Joke", the contains some very good stories from the 80's, and another celebrated Batman GN titled "Son of the Demon".
Besides "The Killing Joke", I felt the best stories were the ones written by Jim Starlin, which were gritty with a noir tinge that worked very well.
As for the stories by second more proeminent writer in this collection, Mike W. Barr, I felt they were lacking. It attempted to mix the more campy elements of Batman with a more serious tone, but felt flat and dull to me. While Barr forgoes the campy aspects completly in "Son of the Demon", the story feels poorly paced and dull, despite terrific artwork.
Overall, a brilliant volume for the more hardcore Batman fan, especially one who wants do delve in the 80's Batman era.
9/10

This was such a better book than the first bat finest with classics! I got for killing joke which I’ve already before but the highlight is the whole collection
January 5, 2026
Despite the title, it should be noted that The Killing Joke is just one short little story at the very end. So let's get into what actually makes up this collection. We're in kind of a weird place with post-Crisis Batman; Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns has just come out, but it really doesn't feel like that has sunk in just yet. Our main Batman run (in Batman and Detective Comics, but not really crossing over between them as much) is interspersed with two graphic novels that are, let's say, ambiguously in canon.
As far as the main Batman run, it's pretty solid but nothing too crazy. You get Batman playing with samurai/ninja themes (it is the late 80's, after all); Batman going after a serial killer (playing with some very serious themes and topics and not entirely sticking the landing, imo); surprise- two Two Faces (a pretty good classic caper); the Millenium crossover involving imposter Manhunter robots (major stinker); Nightwing returning and confronting Batman about Jason Todd (the most we get out of Robin in this collection); the introduction of the Ventriloquist and Scarface (excellent Batman villain); the most 80's plotline ever with the KGBeast trying to sabotage Reagan's idiotic "Star Wars" initiative (Batman abandons his "no killing" rule once that evil commie goes after God's most beloved son, Ronald Reagan); the introduction of the Ratcatcher (cool idea for a villain that feels a little under-explored; a really good sympathetic monster-villain in the Corrosive Man (the visual highlight, absolutely, undercut by a heavy-handed and unrelated War-On-Drugs framing device); and a mediocre Poison Ivy story where she has little to no agency. Jim Aparo and Norm Breyfogle both have a pretty safe but serviceable art style, but there are moments where you can start seeing the influence of Miller, pushing Batman into darker, more experimental silhouettes (and one of the weirdest looking Batmobiles that looks like it got squashed flat).
The first graphic novel in here is Son of the Demon, concluding the "Demon" trilogy exploring Batman's relationship with Ra's al Ghul. The artwork by Jerry Bingham is very clean, delicate, and precise, with a soft, desaturated color palette that really sets it apart visually from the main Batman run. The way Bingham blends the positive and negative space of characters between panels is really elegant. It's weird to read it in sandwiched in to the narrative like this, because it definitely feels like a Batman at a very different part of his life, working beneath Ra's al Ghul and starting a family with Talia. With some fudging of the details, you can read this as the introduction of Damian Wayne, which is pretty cool.
And then of course there's The Killing Joke. This is one where reading it right after all that other Batman just makes it night and day what a different league this is in. The attention to detail, the structuring of panels in such a deliberate and thoughtful way- it's no wonder this revolutionized comics (and Batman in particular). For such a short story there is so much you can go back and find, reading it again and again. Just a totally different approach from what you get in the rest of this book. And whatever Brian Bolland thinks, John Higgins' colors are so perfect. I think some of the mind-torture stuff with Barbara and Jim Gordon is a little mean-spirited for my taste, but as a pure technical achievement in comic storytelling, it is a masterpiece.

1987-1988 Batman was a wild time!
I would divide this volume in four "parts": three iconic tales and then a mish mash of post-Crisis Batman comics discovering what they were going to be.
First, the mish mash. In the wake of Miller's Year One redefinition Batman seemed to be going to a street-level, gangster-foiling, noir book. The issue is, that Year One was an important, contained story. The monthlies seemed to know that they couldn't go quite that dark all the time and still appeal to the masses. So, you get this weird in-between of mobster gangs dealing in cocaine with Batman broodily beating them up. And, a lot of homeless people getting stabbed. Like, I cannot stress enough how many homeless people get murdered in these pages. I'm not a huge fan and these stories are very forgettable.
Now, the icons.
Son of the Demon, a graphic novel adventure that ambiguously introduces what might be Damian Wayne. It's a fun, pulpy, cinematic action story. Ten Nights of the Beast, the infamous tale where one must decide if Batman's loose interpretation of the "no kill" rule was worse than killing when it came to the KGBeast. It's another large, cinematic action flick thriller and it was pretty good. The KGBeast kind of fell flat to me as a character.
Finally, the biggie: The Killing Joke. This story has been revisited and debated a lot, especially in modern times with many lenses. It's....certainly a story. It's undeniable how much it forever framed the relationship between Batman and Joker. Pretty much every story since has carried forth the definitions set here. This is the first time I've read this (shockingly) and the crippling of Barbara Gordon was very icky to me. This is a story that I think the Joker would not come back from if written today. The ending is...a choice, and I see why it sparks so much debate and commentary. It's a key, central story that's a tough read.
I haven't mentioned the art yet. It's fine. Nothing stood out to me, Breyfogle is a crucial Batman artist and he gets better as time goes on, and serves just fine in these pages.

‘The Killing Joke and Other Stories’ is the second chronological reprint of the Post-Crisis Batman era (1986-2011). As I noted in my review of the first volume, ‘Year One and Two,’ DC seemed to be gradually finding its footing, blending Frank Miller’s gritty realism with lingering Adam West silliness. This collection starts with a similar mix but shifts firmly into post-Miller territory by the second half.
Like its predecessor, it’s a hodgepodge of quality, but I enjoyed it more. Alan Grant and John Wagner launch their run here with solid, pulpy fun, highlighted by the debut of the classic villain the Ventriloquist. Jim Starlin — best known for his cosmic Marvel tales and creating Thanos — kicks off his Batman run too; it’s hit-and-miss for me, though generally engaging.
The true draws are two Batman classics: ‘Son of the Demon’ and ‘The Killing Joke.’ The former is a self-contained espionage thriller that opens excitingly but loses steam; I’m not convinced it merits its frequent spot on “greatest ever” lists, yet it holds canon weight today (thanks to Grant Morrison’s reinstatement) as Damian Wayne’s origin. ‘The Killing Joke,’ meanwhile, earns every accolade (disavowals from Alan Moore be damned) as the definitive Batman-Joker story. If you’re reading this, you know all about it already, so I'll say no more!
Overall, it’s an enjoyable, uneven late-’80s Batman anthology and a clear step up from volume one, brimming with historic moments. Only a sliver (‘The Killing Joke’) qualifies as a true DC “Finest,” but the rest delivers thrills and gems. Newbies may consider saving cash with a standalone ‘Killing Joke’ edition over this hefty tome, whereas long-time fans looking for hidden gems will find much of value.

I started reading this in June and pleasant as it was, once I’d read the son of the demon graphic novel, I put it to one side. I didn’t bother picking it back up again until this month (November) as I thought I’d best finish it off. After the Millennium issues the feel of the collection shifts and suddenly for me leapt in quality. The Starlin issues in particular felt well paced and captivating and what I found to be a slow plodding read earlier on was now a mad rush to get to the end. The Ratcatcher and corrosive man stories were definite highlights and the Breyfogle and Aparo art make for well drawn and smoothly told stories. There’s a dip in quality with the unnecessary bonus book from Detective 589 but that’s followed by the Killing Joke so it’s rather hard to complain. As you’re more than likely aware if you’re reading a Batman review, what a perfect Batman story it is (though my own opinion of the violence in it has altered over the years). Overall it’s a great collection, more like 4 and a half rather than 4, and only because of the slow first third of the collection. A very enjoyable Batman compilation.

Es el Batman de mi época, qué querés que te diga. Para mí está lleno de clasicos. Que gran era la de Starlin/Aparo y Wagner/Grant/Breyfogle (siguiendo después sin Wagner). Es muy interesante cómo enseguida Starlin empieza a armar el camino a Muerte en la Familia. El issue donde tienen la charla con Dick sobre Jason es excelente. Y el contraste con el dinamismo de Grant y Breyfogle, una maravilla. Muy olvidable lo de Mike Barr sin Alan Davis, por suerte dura poco. Y rarísima Son of the Demon, impensado que haya sido aprobada. Dame más DC de esta época.
Una perlita el issue Ricardo Villagrán entintando a Breyfogle y haciéndole un power grab total. Más Villagrán que Breyfogle termina siendo.

this might go down as the best graphic novel I've read to this point. there are so many amazing stories here, ranging from the dumpster killer story, son of the demon, ten nights of the beast, and of course the titular killing joke story. I also really enjoyed the issue where Nightwing returned and the character growth it showed when he bonded with the new robin. this book also featured stellar artwork throughout to compliment the amazing writing. this is, at least to me, about as perfect of a collected edition book as you can get.

According to the clerk in Manhattan's Midtown Comic Store, this is basically the only edition of Killing Joke currently in print. I'd be happy to subtract at least one star for all the other stuff it is needlessly bundled with but (a) I have principles; every book gets five(5) stars! and (b) I guess no one actually forced me to read that and (c) what's 40$ anyway? I'd probably just have spent it on drink.|
Anyway: Moore's story is fine, with caveats, and let's face it: he also always gets the best artists and that helps a lot too. I'm glad I finally got around to it, basically.

The ‘graphic novels’ here, especially killing joke are just horrible stories, generally the monthly is pretty good, excluding the millennium crossover and Alan Grant stories… Alan Grant while he can come up with some interesting characters doesn’t tell good stories, almost all stories with his new characters are better told by a different writer.
The star of this book is Jim Starlin, especially his introduction of and 4 parter with KGBeast, great story well told.

Another excellent volume in the DC Finest series. It’s great that these books are including one-shots and graphic novels as well as the main issues, building up a truly comprehensive collection of stories. The standouts in this volume are the excellent four-issue Ten Nights of the Beast story from Batman and the brutal and uncompromising The Killing Joke graphic novel by Alan Moore.
November 2, 2025
Some really great examples of sequential storytelling throughout this volume, capped off by the perfection of The Killing Joke. My personal favourite in this one was the Nightwing confrontation with Bruce, but every story hits and there isn't a dud in the bunch.
December 23, 2025
The high rating is for the art in the Killing Joke and the great story in the Son of the Demon where Talia plays a a big role and Damian’s birth is hinted at. Classic Batman content in here. Covers 1987-1988.
June 29, 2025
These Batman stories from the 1980s for the most, are still great reads. I think Starlin’s writing deserved his name on the cover.
July 28, 2025
3.5 ⭐️ The Killing Joke and the Son of the Demon issues make the book. White, Gold, and Truth was also a highlight. The rest of the book was just ok.
October 21, 2025
Killing Joke is the best one I’ve read yet, but there are a couple misses in here which bring it down. They need this type of Joker in a movie, but I don’t know how’d they do it
