DC Comics Batman: The Killing Joke debuted in 1988. It was written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Brian Bolland. This graphic novel provides an origin story for the Joker, depicting him as a failed comedian who turns to crime after hard times. He would soon have a fateful accident after encountering Batman, becoming Gotham's Clown Prince of Crime. While the first part of the series shows the origin, the second shows the Comedian shooting and paralyzing Barbara Gordon, aka Batgirl. This was all to prove his philosophy that "one bad day" can drive anyone to madness, as he pushed Batman and Commissioner Gordon to the limit.
