DC Comics Universe and Detective Comics #1022 Spoilers and Review follows.

The Joker War Roots In The New 52 Joker Skin Mask Era…

…That Establishes Two’s Church?!

This storyline apparently has roots in the New 52’s Joker “skin mask” era from Detective Comics #1 in 2011 and…

…seemingly Batman and Two-Face storyline from 2014’s Batman and Robin #28.

Well, Batman escapes his chemical baptism in the Two-Face’s Church of Two.

Then later we learn from one of the Joker’s disciples…

…that the roots of today are in the past in the New 52 era…

…with skin mask Joker…

…who seemingly lobotomized Two-Face to what end?!

The book ends in the modern era as…

…the Joker lights the match to…

…kick off the Joker War.

The Pulse:

A gorgoues issue on art and a roller coaster, in a good way, on story. Awesome. 9 out of 10.
