Hey Jokerholics,

Our friends at MTV UK, have gotten hold of Jokerdom gold!  They have the brand new ARKHAM CITY JOKER TRAILER and are sharing it with the world at their site.  I saw it and my jaw dropped. In one word, magnificent. Mark Hamill once more steals the show giving us a wonderful and at the same time terrifying view of our favorite psychopath.

Just click on the image and you will be automatically transported to their site.

Hello Jokerholics,

I have the great pleasure to announce you that I received communication from DAN WALLACE, the writer of the upcoming book JOKER: A VISUAL HISTORY OF THE CLOWN PRINCE OF CRIME with important information. 

First, he brought to my attention that the entry from PREVIEWS didn’t list his name, and as I transcribed the information  to the post I missed it too but that has been fixed.  Sorry for the inconveniences, Dan. I will be complaining to Previews for their innacuracies.

Anyways, Dan was also very pleased about his book being promoted here (the pleasure has been all mine Dan)  and was kind enough to include a link to the final cover to delight our eyes and spoke about the book:

“Hi — thanks so much for spotlighting the upcoming Joker book!…we were lucky enough to get an introduction for the book from Mark Hamill. The cover has also been updated I have an advance copy and it’s gorgeous! It’s scheduled to hit stores in October.” 

HERE IS THAT AMAZING FINAL COVER

For those Joker lovers that are looking forward to PRE ORDERING a copy of DCU Online, one word of advice.  Your best bet would be to order it through GAMESTOP because they have the best ADD-ON in the whole wide world:  The Joker Confetti Bomb.  I just had to do it.  Also it will be goo to know that GAMESTOP is already taking Pre-orders for the upcoming ARKHAM CITY even when they dont have a final release date and are not sure if they will come up with a SPECIAL EDITION COLLECTOR’S SET (but I hope they will)

They also were kind enough to get me a copy of the special edition GAMEINFORMER with the latest on the game.  I’m including the cover and scans from that article for your enjoyment.  My scanner is not the best int the world, and hope you can read it with no problems, otherwise let me know and I will type the whole articel myself.

Here are the scans.
More Scans on ARKHAM CITY under the cut…

I sat down in my little bed to read my comics of the week and the first one I pick up to read contained a little suprise at the end.  Our fabulous psychopath is finally making his return to the Batman world (I hope this one is the real, please….)

Anyways, here is the scan, hot from the oven and BATMAN and ROBIN 12.  Look who’s coming to dinner on the next issue….make reservations now…..\

Since Simon is leaving, the people behind the American Idol show decided to add a new judge for the series.  They needed someone with the same presence and attitude that had recognized Simon during all his seasons.  Here is the new Judge trying out the waters with the departing judge…

APRIL FOOLS!!!!!!!!

I Don’t know who’s manipulation is this, but you my man/woman are a genius.  To you all the credit.  This made me laugh my ass off!!!

Well, today Orlando Megacon started and I had the honor of meeting in the flesh one of the greatest Slash artists (in my humble opinion, and I’m kinda new to the genre) out there.  YAYOI NEKO..

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw some of her prints…that I had already downloaded from the internet.  I really love her art. She is a sweetheart though a little camera shy (asked me not to take he picture, which I respected) and a talented artist.

I spilled my cash at  her booth, buying some of her prints that she kindly signed for me and even got a copy of her sketchbook. She was kind enough to also include some free postcards of her art which I will treasure always.  I just want to thank her for being so nice and show that you could be great at something and not have to be a bitch about it.  There is always space for kindness.

Thanks Yayoi, from a faithful fan.  

Sorry for the nasty black lines but I want to respect her note that say do not scan without consent and still show a little piece of her wonderful art. 

You could see more art at her deviantart site at :  http://thundertori.deviantart.com or her website:  www.yayoineko.com

I’ll post more of the convention tomorrow…after I attend a few forums there.

Hey Joker Fans!!

I was just surprised this week at my comic book shop when my guys (I love my comic book shop buddies!) saved a compy of NEMESIS: THE IMPOSTORS issue one of the miniseries.  To my surprise it has a very nice cameo of our beloved clown.  It seems he is more involved, I hope he is more than just a fill-up in the story to bring readers.

Oh, and look at  the outfit.  Isn’t is sassy?  I think Mistah J has been to a private viewing of the film ALICE IN WONDERLAND.  No guesses on who would be his fav character there?  I think….madhatter.  Still.  He looks so nice in this outfit even with his green lips and all.  I bow to the artist who definitely did his best to depict the Clown Prince of Crime in all his Mirth. 

Below this Joker pic is a link to the whole comic book that I scanned for all my Joker Flist to watch.  Now ENJOY!!

 


Enjoy your free comic of the day…Happy Joker days!

Hello friends from hi and lo…

First, I have to reveal that YES! EARTH-3 JOKER MAKES A CAMEO in the new animated movie!!!!!  HURRAY!

But the sad part is that is only on the first 5 minutes of the movie…..more on that one paragraph down.

I just wanted to comment on the new DCU movie  JUSTICE LEAGUE:  CRISIS IN TWO EARTHS, which I just finished watching and I have to give it my thumbs up.  I have to admit that though I am not a biggie on the Justice League, I have a heart for the Crime Sindicate.  Call it my psychosis…I like villains, especially when they are well written, and these guys …well. This guys are written extremely well.

 

Some spoilers on the plot, read at your own risk…and enjoy!

hoa!   You ever wonder what makes the Joker tick?  Well, in this very interesting issue, we have a chance to see into the twisted psyche of our beloved Clown Psychopath and see him from his humble beginnings until the present day (in the DCU at least)  All these seen through our protagonist, the Atom who has been brought to Arkham to treat Joker from a severe neurological disease that could kill him.

Why don’t let the Joker die, you may want to ask?  Well, that is the same dilema that Atom faces, and his choice does not come free of risks, for getting into the Joker’s mind could be extremely dangerous on its own right.

The plot is simple, and some of the ideas are not new (psychotic child who kills his own family, a criminal life, etc) to the DCU, but I personally enjoyed the twisted reasoning of Joker explaining why he pushes the rules of the world to the extreme, and his final goal.  Please, enjoy these scans….

  Little dreamer at school, with one big mouth. J…you’re really weird.

 Please don’t get little J angry.  It’s not a pretty sight.
Please continue enjoying these scans

I am a little behind in my comic reading and just finished the last issue of ARKHAM REBORN miniseries. For those of you that don’t know what this is about, Dr. Arkham is reconstructing Arkham to be a state of the art facility for the treatment of the criminally insane, but Black Mask has other plans for the asylum and tries to sabotage his plans…or does he?

Well, as it happens, the last pages of issue three introduce a new villain that was just…well…unexpected. The name is the JESTER and just look closely by yourselves…

 

Read more because this gets interesting…
