DC has announced another new addition to DC Black Label. This time around, Joker: Killer Smile is the latest miniseries to join the line. Coming from writer Jeff Lemire with art by Andrea Sorrentino, the series will release its first issue this October. The series is planned for three issues releasing every other month.
In JOKER: KILLER SMILE Lemire and Sorrentino will share their own interpretation of one of the darkest characters of the Batman mythos—the Joker. For years, the Joker has terrorized Gotham, facing off with Batman time and time again. But now he’s found a new adversary, one that can deliver him from the purgatory of Arkham Asylum and set his madness free once more—the very doctor tasked with treating him. As he gets his hooks deeper and deeper into the mind of his prey, Joker sets off a chain reaction of mayhem that will threaten to tear down not only Gotham City but the soul of this idealistic man, and his young family, too.
Joker: Killer Smile #1, debuts on October 30. This series joins other recent additions coming from DC Black Label including Joker/Harley: Criminal Sanity also debuting in October along with Harleen debuting in September.
