Assess Appertaining To Books Batman: The Man Who Laughs (Batman: One-Shots)

The Man Who Laughs actually contains two separate Batman stories. The first is a direct sequel to Batman: Year One. At the end of Year One, Gordon mentions that an unknown character called the Joker has been making threats against the city.This story picks up right where Year One left off, with Batman and Gordon confronting the Joker for the first time. Unlike the thugs Batman was taking on before, the Joker has no obvious motive for his crimes other than to spread terror and destruction. The

3.5 starsEdit:It has recently come to my attention (through a reread) that Kat's review sounds NOTHING like my classy & informative reviewing style.Because...Anne = Classy + InformativeNot...Rambling + Whatever the opposite of informative is...?*cough*Ok. So in response to Kat's Review, I'm going to try to write this review in Ms. Stark's style. Go easy on me, guys. I'm a little nervous here.*clears throat, taps on mike* Um, hey. Is this thing even on? *feedback squeals*Review a la Kat:Guys,

This is 2 completely different stories by Ed Brubaker, who is awesome. The first is a story of the Joker's first appearance in Gotham and his first run in with Batman/Gordon. A good solid story that makes sense and is enjoyable. Great artwork too. The second story is just as good, and I may even have enjoyed it more. 'Made of Wood' is a Batman story with Golden Age Green Lantern Alan Scott. It is fascinating to see the current protector of Gotham interact with the past protector (Green Lantern

It was great to finally read about Batman's first encounter with his legendary nemesis The Joker. The art, for the most part, was good, and the story was gripping, though it was a bit repetitive at times. I don't fully understand why they include the comic Made of Wood in this book. That comic has nothing to do with The Joker and involves Batman and Green Lantern teaming up to solve a series of murders. Maybe Batman aficionados can enlighten me as to why these two works are grouped together,

The first meeting of Batman and Joker should be much bigger than this story. And the book is very misleading because only the first half is a Joker story.

Good! So Who doesn't like Joker? No one! Does Ed Brubaker write a bad comic? NEVER!!! Add these two together and you get a pretty good comic. Granted this isn't the best joker story, but its enjoyable. So this is basically Batman's first encounter with The Joker shortly after Year One! Like is said not the best joker story but still worth a read!

Batman teams up with green lantern .. its interesting but I didnt care much for the story. Plus I never read any of Ed Brubakers work before and he seems like a good writer but writes a lot for marvel and Im not a big fan of them so no thank you.
