Batman: Three Jokers #1 by Geoff Johns
4.0

The three jokers has been teased for like 5 years now but we finally get some answers AND some resolution real quick.

I believe this is only 3 issues, or 3 parts, so they ain't playing around. This is fast paced, brutal, and pretty damn entertaining. Joker has effected a lot of people's lives but the big three (Bruce, Barbara, and Jason) take center stage on trying to locate the 3 sons of bitches who ruined their lives. With their actually being some big mystery, the biggest being their plans, what are the Jokers up to and how are there 3? Why? Where did they come from?

There's some amazing shots in here, my favorite being Bruce and his scars moment. No spoilers but it's powerful and really well done. The dialogue is pretty solid, and I love seeing Jason a asshole so he worked well here. Barbara gets to shine and I can't wait to see where she goes. Bruce is by far the most unhinged but I can't wait.

The ending is a blast and I want more. A 4 out of 5.
