Turns out this picture below from DC Universe Rebirth #1 is MORE that a 75-year-fan-service for us readers!
Representing Joker’s long history, we can see above:
•
Classic
•
The Killing Joke Joker
•
And the latest one by Snyder & Capullo during Endgame
Till now I was thinking of this pic as a fan-service for us, but now we have clear mentions to 2 out of 3 of these Jokers.
1) Scott Snyder [confirmed] that his Joker (Joker #3) is going to play part in the eventual three Jokers storyline, and we see him again in today’s Justice League #7:
2) Tim King pointed out that Joker’s story is [going to continue in today’s Batman Rebirth issue #9] And after reading it with that in mind, you can see in the pics below that King homaging “The Killing Joke” (setting & dialogue) is done purposefully (don’t get your hopes up, it’s Catwoman in the straitjacket)
So now we have 2 out of 3 confirmed. TKJ and Snyder’s. Classic Joker must be on his way!
Btw, till I see where this whole 3-Joker Rebirth thing is going and how they are going to handle it, I admit that I am very, very nervous. Very very very VERY nervous.
