[Adriana · Rating 3 out of 5]

Si no estas completamente familiarizado con todo lo que sucedia al momento con la historia principal de Batman y las series de las cuales salieron los numeros que forman parte de este volumen, todo el contenido es un desorden total de historias que apenas y tienen un detalle minimo en comun. Peor aun, ninguna termina!
Leido como un vistazo a la locura que es Joker, es una pieza interesante que contiene elementos poderosos que hacen al lector seguir la historia avidamente.
Leido como sin conocer todos los elementos, es una mezcla confusa de eventos que no llevan a nada.
Solo recomendable si el lector es un fan de Batman que sigue la historia al momento y esta dispuesto a dedicar el tiempo a buscar todos los elementos para tener la historia completa.

The Joker is back and he's pulling his sickest stunt to date, reenacting his old ones. Batman cannot due this alone so he reaches out to the Bat Family, yet soon they are abducted which leads to just Joker and Batman. The Joker is trying to get to Batman, drive him mad, which eventually leads to him "killing" the Bat Family which includes Batman's son Damien Wayne, but it turns out to be a cruel joke, with his plan foiled, Joker leaves the scene only to end in a cliffhanger. I gave this book a great rating due to the balance of the storyline as well as the dark tone and mood, it's just enough Batman with a touch of nostalgia, due to Joker reenacting stunts from past comics. This book taught me to be close with my family, because you never know what can happen. I recommend this book to be read by teenagers because of murders, blood, and twisted, dark jokes.

I misunderstood. I thought this was going to be another Court of Owls series, so I went in expecting something else. That aside, Joker has never been my favorite villain and therefore, this was not my favorite book.
