Check Out the Trailer for ‘Batman: The Killing Joke’!

The Killing Joke–by Brian Bolland, Alan Moore, and John Higgins–stands as not only one of the greatest Batman comics ever made, but as one of the best graphic novels ever written. It gave fans a look at the origins of the Joker, set up the events leading to the death of Jason Todd, and witnessed (perhaps the most vivid memory for those who read it back in 1988) the Joker’s brutal attack on Barbara Gordon. Now, 28 years after its release, The Killing Joke is getting its own animated feature scheduled for release this summer–and we have a look at the first official trailer!

Fans will be elated to know that Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill are reprising their roles as Batman and The Joker for this film, and for those attending the San Diego Comic-Con, Batman: The Killing Joke will make its world-wide debut at the convention!
