Legendary filmmaker John Carpenter turns his hand to the DC universe and the iconic Clown Prince of Crime this October as writer on The Joker: Year of the Villain, and you can check out an unlettered first-lo0k preview here…
“In this one-shot special, Lex Luthor – now a human-alien hybrid – has made his appeal to the world, asking its citizens to embrace doom and give in once and for all to evil, humanity’s true nature. In exchange, he will grant them the tools to ascend to their ultimate selves. While some DC villains (and heroes) are willing to hear what “Apex Lex” has to offer, the Clown Prince of Crime isn’t going to wait around until Lex gets to him. This puts The Joker on a mission to get his swagger back in a world gone bad by out-badding everyone else, proving that the greatest evil is always the one that leaves them laughing.”
The Joker: Year of the Villain #1 is out on October 9th, priced $4.99.
