Three weeks or so ago, Bleeding Cool ran a little bit of Bat Gossip. And we always like to mark our own homework and check exactly how we did. We already looked at the Red Mask being responsible for the triplication of the Joker that had so plagued the Batman, revealed in a scene set in Batman's future. But in our original post, we also stated that;
"Batman #142 begins the new Joker: Year One arc by Chip Zdarsky, Giuseppe Camuncoli, Stefano Nesi, and Andrea Sorrentino, and is heading towards something big with Batman #150. Set in the future of the Batman Universe, yes, another one, subject to a new assault by the Joker, it is told in flashback. We have a Joker imprisoned in a cyberworld of dreams, created by one Commissioner Gordon. Or rather, Commissioner Barbara Gordon. But he is the Joker, right, so he finds a way out. That is what he does."
Well from Batman #142 out this Tuesday we have a futuristic crucifixated Joker…
Under a system desigend by Comissioner Barbara Gordon. No one use the words nepo baby, okay? Not when she has the long arm of the law under her control. As for the Joker's future in that future, and you may recall this scene from the preview artwork that followed…
