 Aside from the decade variants there are a few more retailer variants coming out although you're probably going to pay a premium if you want some of them.

For example you're going to pay over a hundred dollars if you want these three Artgerm variants together:







Speaking of Punchline, Joker's new girlfriend is getting her own series of covers (basically the same image with different backgrounds) from Midtown via Inhyuk Lee.



Finally we have this morbid cover from Ryan Brown at Comics Elite.

I actually like all of these.

At the very least they aren't as terrible as the Batgirl cover from a few years back that got pulled. Event his last one which has a real horror movie vibe.

Yeah, these aren't bad. They get across the usual Joker vibe without drawing from The Killing Joke well for the umpteenth time.

Why is Harley's tongue hanging out?

The Punchline one is nice, though wow, they're really pushing this character huh?

I wonder if they're trying to strike gold in and cash in double on Harley's alleged popularity.

There's nothing "alleged" about it at this point. She's in movies, a new animated series, and like four separate titles this year. True that her latest film wasn't the smash DC was hoping for, but even so, that mining operation is already pretty advanced.

Haha yeah I know, I'm just joking. :) I never seem to see diehard HQ fans in the wild, so (well, saw one on here once). If I were being totally serious I'd have said 'apparent' instead.

Fair enough!

(You wouldn't believe some of the knots I've seen people twist themselves into to deny that, say, their least favorite Star Wars movie was even a financial success. Fandom has a real alternative-fact problem, and it bothers me.)

There's an interesting point to be made here about spread of popularity versus intensity of it, too. Sometimes intensity can predict spread, as it did for Star Trek and superheroes in general, and sometimes a thing remains only a cult hit (though it's harder to identify what those are these days: thanks, Netflix). But if one has to choose between the two, there's a lot more money to be made in a mass quantity of people who may not think about you year-round but like you enough to buy a ticket.

Only 60% crowbar! And Brown's has a SHOVEL! Way to change it up!

Seriously, though, good jobs on these. I particularly like the look Joker and Harley share: he's still a psycho but happy to have an audience, she sees it as more than that, and that's what's relatable about their early relationship in a nutshell. Not sure she's in the right costume, though.
