Every now and then, DC Comics will shut down for a line wide event. In the last few years, the DC Universe froze in Endless Winter, been on storm watch in Lazarus Planet, and remains fast asleep during Knight Terrors. Typically, readers may expect the tie-ins to cover key characters amid other generally useless spin-offs.…

I was pretty lukewarm in my review for the start of The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing. I don’t feel fatigued by the titular character as others do, but I wasn’t very intrigued by the initial set up for this run either. Will this issue change my mind and give me the exciting twists,…
