    HA,HA HA

    The Good: Greg Capullo batman art is still GREAT. Scott Snyder really adresses a lot issues that the joker and batman. Why Batman hasnt killed the Joker and why he doest trust his family until now. The back up was the conclusion to this issue. It was all planned out well and the dialogue was pretty good this issue! I really liked the two headed cat monster.

    The Bad: TOO MUCH DIALOGUE , although it was enjoyable it was just too much for a ending issue arch and not enough action in my opinion. Also i was really hoping for more than scott gave this. i really dont think this a defining joker story in my point of view. I played on past joker stories but really Greg Joker design was the only new thing to Joker that i will remember.

    The Verdict : I say definitely get this issue if youve been reading this whole arch and if you havent then i would still inquire you to read the trade whenever it comes out. Scott work does read better in one sit down. For me i will be taking a hiatus from this title to pursue other books. Its been a good 17 issue ride but i need pursue other books that i care about. With that i would like to thank Scott Snyder ,James Tynion IV and Greg Capullo for writing and drawing a awesome batman book!

    HA.HA.HA.

      PREFACE:The end has come... at least to Snyder's run on the Joker, and bow does the clown have some surprises. The ending to this suspense ridden, anxiety attacking, and family murdering saga has left me personally excited beyond all reckoning these last few weeks, and I don't think I'll be the only one dying to see the end, but on to the review.PLOT:Now, usually I go through a play by play of what happened but the ending to this story is way to important to spoil. In fact, the comic was leaked ...
