Joker spin-off comics

[kingmyth]

Would it work for Joker to have his own on going comics, He is a very popular villain, Is it possible for the writers to make a spin-off comic happen?.

He's had his own ongoing before. It didn't last long.

So it's possible, but I think editors/writers would struggle with how to do it. I think we haven't seen another because miniseries and one shots have proven effective as far as giving Joker extra special attention, without needing to devise a way to keep readers interested in a monthly....where it will be like: what is Joker doing and why should we care?

It would not hurt to give Joker a second chance.

It wouldn't be easy. I don't think you could get away with monthly stories of Joker doing heinous things, people would get bored of that quick. Many think we get Joker too much already (I don't agree with that myself).

DC would have to pony up money to top names to kinda sell this new risky title more and I think those creators would be hesitant because they wouldn't know how to play it in a long lasting sense. Simply put, we don't see villain ongoings (especially non-team ones) as much for a reason, they pose financial risk and creative challenges.

I'd read a Paul Dini Joker book.

He's the only writer, at least off the top of my head, I could see making an ongoing series based around the Joker work.

If its like Azzarello's Joker OGN, please no. That one was a lot like Leto's Joker.

The Joker's Asylum anthology (essentially Joker as the Cryptkeeper), I enjoyed.

Maybe a retelling of Going Sane as a maxi series?

I liked Azzarellos OGN but I also liked Leto's Joker too

To be honest, I wouldn't really care for an ongoing solo series for Joker. I don't think we're getting too much Joker already, but that could change quickly when Joker would be given his own series, risking him to become a second Harley Quinn.

Joker is less funny and entertaining there. Shouldn't the Joker think of himself as an entertainer? As a mobster he was great.

In Morrison's Batman & Robin run, the night Bruce returned Joker thought aloud for a second of running around doing "the hero thing" (perhaps as the Gravedigger) right after burying Dr. Hurt alive, then was promptly knocked out by DickBats. I'd like to see an alternate universe mini where Joker did, indeed, go on such an adventure.

The Thin Green Line: Jokerized Justice or some such.

I think we need to give Joker sopme kind of personality and character traits other than "generically evil kill-crazy" first.

I have what turned out to be the last issue of that series in my collection. It's basically Catwoman kidnapping and torturing a Joker that is terrified of her. So it's sort of easy to see why it failed when
Joker isn't even the baddest and most evil character in his own comic book.

I have some issues, I liked the first issue I think (which had Two-Face IIRC) and I actually most loved the Lex Luthor one, which arguably has the first kernel of what would later be Morrison's "supersanity" (so sane he's insane) take on The Joker (which is basically that Joker is so super sane that he only appears insane, he takes too much in and we can't really understand him, we have a (perhaps beneficial) deficit where Joker doesn't as far as perceiving reality).

Nope. I don't think THIS Joker could do it. The joker of the 70's and 80's maybe... but not THIS one. In order to make it work, Joker would have to be FUN. He'd have to go back to pulling wacky heists and following his own agenda and doing some crazy joker stuff. Petty much in the style of Deadpool or Harley.

And WINNING. Nobody really wants to see the Protagonist LOSE every issue. I think seeing a book from the villains point of view would be interesting... I would enjoy seeing WHY Batman is the only one who can really beat him... Send him against Green Arrow or Atom and watch him run circles around them...

But current Joker isn't like that. Now he's just cranked up his Sadistic side to a million and is only really interested in murdering babies and peeling off faces and utterly psychotic stuff like that. Current Joker would be more like reading 'Saw: the comic'. More Hannibal the Cannibal then the Clown prince of Crime.

THAT book... I don't think that book would stand a chance. Some 'one-shot' or mini series maybe... but an ongoing of just Joker doing horrible things and getting away with it? That doesn't seem like a market DC would want to exploit.
