Geoff Johns & Jason Fabok Revisit The Three Jokers (Spoilers)

The Three Jokers epilogue by Geoff Johns and Jason Fabok is published in Joker: The World later this week.

Batman: The Three Jokers by Geoff Johns and Jason Fabok worked as a direct sequel to Batman: The Killing Joke by Alan Moore and Brian Bolland. But also rewrote major scenes, such as the relationship between the Joker and his wife.

The Three Jokers suggested a far more abusive relationship. In The Three Jokers, rather than a loving man driven mad, it is implied he was always an abusive partner and his pregnant wife fled to the police for protection.

So this scene from The Killing Joke plays out again…

…but now we see what really happens to his wife. She lives and she had his child.

With only Batman knowing the link between the two – and keeping it that way. Somewhere snowy. And completely unknown to the Joker. Unless he crashlanded in Alaska and just walked in accidentally… as seen in the Three Jokers epilogue, published in Joker: The World later this week.

And while torturing them as he would any small town he walked into. Just there happens to a woman he once knew and a boy he never did.

Not that the Joker even recognises her anymore. But there is something about the boy… and his name is Jeremy. The only other tease we had, was in Geoff Johns' Golden Age that he may become a Robin for Batman ten years in the future.

Joker: The World is published on Tuesday.
