He’s worn many faces through the years, and this harrowing figure of mayhem and chaos has maintained the mystique and privilege of being called the Caped Crusader’s most diabolical nemesis. Now to mark 8 decades of decadence and depravity, DC Comics will honor the Clown Prince of Chaos with his own 100-page, Prestige format, one-shot! The Joker 80th Anniversary Super Spectacular will take a whimsical stroll down memory lane as some of the industry’s most prolific talents take a stab at chronicling The Joker through the years…
