Batman. The Killing Joke

In the summer of 1988, the entire world was captivated by a story that would forever entwine the fates of writer Alan Moore, artist Brian Bolland, and colorist John Higgins with those of Batman, the Joker, Commissioner Gordon, and his daughter Barbara. *Batman: The Killing Joke*—a prestige-format graphic novel that kept Bolland tethered to his drawing board for months on end—was finally released, yet no one was truly prepared for its impact. It only takes one bad day to drive someone insane. It only takes one comic book to revolutionize the medium. Now, it arrives in your hands exactly as it was originally conceived, in a true collector’s edition.
