Alright this is a few days late BUT this deserves to be told. It was announced on twitter a couple days ago that the next big Bat family story line after the amazing Court of Owls cross over is going to center around the freaking JOKER. The last time we saw the Joker in the new 52 was the first storyline in Detective comics. With his face cut off. Willingly. He has since disappeared and not a peep has been heard from him. Scott Snyder, the mastermind behind court of owls and writer of Batman, announced that the Joker has been planing this entire time and his palns will shake the bat family to its core and there WILL be bodies. Lots of them.
I was super excited by this announcement because Snyder doing the Joker will be unimaginably good. His Court of Owls is just wrapping up and it has been amazingly paced with great action and lots of shocking reveals. I am also excited to see Gail Simone tackle how Batgirl will react confronting Joker for the first time since she has been able to walk again. The trade of the first part of the court story has just been released so check it out before October when the Joker returns!
