I feel kinda bad for rating such a special comic so low especially since I’ve always seen it highly recommended as one of the must read Batman comics. For a while I’ve wanted to at least experience it first hand.

I pretty much have the exact same feelings as most of the other low reviews on here. Though the artwork was extremely unique and at times very beautiful in it’s dark way, majority of the other times it was a bit of an eyesore, especially the weird font used for Jokers speech which was tough to read. Maybe it should have only been used for the occasional word or sentence for effect. Then the plot was very incoherent to the point where I could barely follow what was going on. Some bits were ‘woa’, others were just ‘huh?’ I pushed through it the best I could in the hope that it would end up making more sense as it went on, but then it ended and I just thought well then...

Overall I just didn’t enjoy the uncomfortable vibes it tries to create. I was close to rating it 3 stars because it is definitely one of a kind but then it’d be level with many books that I enjoyed much much more, so that’s why I went with a 2. I can see why some people would love it but simply put; it wasn’t for me.

Also I absolutely did not read the 100 pages of script at the end of the special edition for the comic I literally just read because are you crazy?
