The Killing Joke is a golden masterpiece. Set out by the visually striking look of every single panel, delivered in a delicate, brutal & unique way .. one by one. Classic.
This is a story about madness, the point we break, easily? hardly? how do you think you'll break? what's going to hold you no matter what? .. and no matter how much you think you have the answers .. we're only human after all, so fragile, so weak .. and so cruel.
"Look at him now, poor fellow. That's what a dose of reality does for you ..."
I'm not a fan of superheroes, never was and never will be, I guess. But simply, I'm the one who likes to look at things from their beautiful side, their unique structure that gives them their own genre that distinguish them from others, their own mood to experience.
I'm searching for beauty wherever it is, after many & many years of taking ideas about things and just stick to them, I never change them. It evolved, so now even superheroes have some space, I just try to take whatever suits me, and the Killing Joke is (not very old) a work of art that screamed loudly of how much it's special .. in a world so big, so popular .. called by The Night, The Batman.
And Batman, is unlike any superhero out there, who have the charisma and a prepared world for darkness .. for adults, and something big that touches them & connect them even if you think it's all just ridiculous. And speaking of Batman, I started watching the Animated series last year, took me awhile to finish it, but it was fine for most part. However, it was uniquely done .. thanks to the voice actors and many others, who gave each special story a ground, a solid one that after many years, can still hold up just fine.

"When the human race wears an anxious face, when the bomb hangs overhead, when your kid turns blue, it won't worry you, you can smile & nod instead!" ... madness in the air.
