I’m already partial to Alan Moore’s writing but this one was great. I’ve read a lot of Batman and DC in general this past year and this is by far my favorite Joker. Instead of being portrayed in a way that is almost relatable (like Harley and Poison Ivy), Moore makes him creepy and lewd. He actually feels like he is crazy instead of acting crazy.
