Batman: The Killing Joke by Alan Moore
5.0
The ending scene could be predicted in so many different ways and I love that. On one hand people agree that Batman stuck to his one unsaid rule while others believe that this was a new leaf turned for him as a character. I don’t know but I think Moore gives us all the clues to what we should look at it as and I am very satisfied with them.
PS: The Joker to this day is the biggest and most calculated villain within the DC universe just on the mere fact that his story is never the same but always justifies why he’s so “bad”.
But what strikes me the most is that he is actually on to something. He had a bad day and manifested into someone against the world while Batman also had a bad day and tried to do the greater good for the world. They stories are both so similar, I can’t help but think this one time Batman just gave in to his dark desires “for the greater good”.
