Before The Joker became the Clown Prince of Crime, he was just the sort of person the Dark Knight has dedicated his life to protecting—a common man. What happened to transform this average citizen into the greatest evil ever known? And can Batman finally put an end to the cycle of bloodlust and lunacy that links these two iconic foes before it leads to its fatal conclusion? This episode is based on Batman: The Killing Joke (Jul. 1988), written by Alan Moore with artwork by Brian Bolland. © & ™ DC.
