Batman:The Killing Joke Review

In case you can't tell I'm sort of dead in this video. I worked till 5 AM today so my apologies for being kind of off in general.

If you're too lazy to watch the video, here's a summary:
Great artwork, moe-moe kyun-kyun Joker faces, Batman being awesome, one of those days, Joker's stylish wardrobe, Babs gets bullet shanked.
Overall: a solid A

So what's your favorite batman novel?

[AntiAiChan]

@ArkhamKnight84 I'm not very good with choosing favorites but I really enjoyed The Long Halloween and Knightfall.

I just read this recently was a good book, I like your Christmas tree in the background by the way lol looks nice.

[AntiAiChan]

@my4trackmachine Negative.

you should read black mirror. its lengthy and just about as good dark gritty writting as moores. ..well not AS good as moores writting or this story but snyder is very good and if one of your problems with this book was that it was short black mirror might be your cup of tea.

you might just be...the greatest girl ever alive.....

@GaEv4 I didn't mean it as her literally becoming Oracle or her mental transition to becoming her. This is what marks her end at Batgirl and the next transition of her life is Oracle. If she wasn't shot she probably never would have took that next step.

@phealy02 Someone is a little butt hurt. I actually say that for every comic I review; not sure why you have such a problem with me stating a few positives. And you're rather silly if you think none of those movies have a resolution.

[phealy02]

If Alan Moore saw this 'review' (50% plot re-cap), with every sentence punctuated by 'LIKE' he’d cringe. Moore stated that in this comic his input was bettered by the graphical work of Bolland. But a sub-par Moore combined with a superb Bolland results in something that deserves a better than: "some positives about the book..."

No resolution? That's a sign of its courage - most Hollywood films have a sugar-coated resolution, but the real classics (Chinatown, Casablanca, Watchmen) rarely do.

I disagree with you when you say that this is the birth of Oracle because I feel it wasn't what the Joker did to Barbara that made her Oracle I think it was how she reacted to it that did that. I think the true birth of Oracle is the moment that Barbara Gordon decided that she wasn't going to let being paralysed control her life and that she was going to do what she wanted to do with her life which we don't really see here because we don't really get to see much of her reaction in this book.
