SPOILERS







It turns out, as we suspected, that Joker is in fact Martha Wayne, gone-crazy-with-maternal-grief or some such.

I was actually hoping to see that page scanned here, as I think she rocks the Ledger!Joker look damn well. I'd love to see Martha!Joker as cosplay now.

And that twist makes sense to me, actually. If the trauma of Bruce's death caused Thomas to become Batman, then it also makes about as much sense for Martha to snap and become the Joker.

Fair point. I think my goat has more been got by Cat-Oracle than it has by Martha-Joker. It's not the MOST logical reaction to a traumatising attack, but then this is a world in which the UK is populated by warrior-women in revealing outfits and slave eunuchs.

You mean it isn't that way in real life!? D:

Well, there go my vacation plans. Hope I can get a refund for these first-class round trip tickets. ):

So Bruce dies and his father becomes heroic and his mother turns into a villain.

Yeah...

Oh well at least I hope Martha looks cool with the clown make up on (plus Batman/Joker fans would love this).

While he's not as over the bend as Martha, Thomas Wayne isn't exactly heroic.

While we haven't seen much of her clearly, it now very much makes we want to see Ledger!Joker cosplay by women. I'm sick and tired of Ledger!Joker cosplay dominating the character's followers, but even still, Martha!Joker is a variation I'd love to see. I think she rocks the outfit even better than Ledger.
