Ok . . this was another installment of Joker from the Crypt . . . or, Joker from the Asylum . . or, Joker's Asylum. Yeah! That's it. I'd have to say though, this particular issue, in my opinion, was the best of the lot. I enjoyed the story that David Hine turned in. And, I especially like the artwork of Andy Clarke. Andy is a very detailed artist. Very precise. And in a story like this, about Two-Face, and with the Joker, that style seems to be in direct contrast with the theme of the book. It's very disturbing. I like it a lot! The story was somewhat predictable, but not entirely. But to be honest these books really haven't been about the stories. These villains have been out of the Gotham lime-light for a little while . . due to Salvation Run . . so this was the opportunity to reintroduce them. And that's really what this whole run has been about. To let us know that they may be gone . . but not forgotten. And that the true players in the Gotham under-world are back, ready to roll up their sleeves, and deal out a little carnage. Of course . . we have to wait until the Batman RIP story-line has run it's course, but . . . as good as that story is . . it's worth the wait. Let the games begin.
