“All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. That's how far the world is from where I am. Just one bad day.”

This is the first comic I've ever read. Of course I've read manga and graphic novels as for comics this is my first and I'm happy to say it did not dissapoint.

Short and sweet. Just a superhero book, basicsally, but a pretty good one. You'll enjoy it if you like the Joker and crazy people, otherwise give it a miss.

Kind of bizarrely priced at $10, short as it is. It's got Alan Moore's name on it, sure, and he does a good job, but it isn't his best work.

For my money, the highlight is the illustrations. Not of everything, really, though it's all perfectly fine -- just of the Joker. Some really good work there.
