Book excerpt: Celebrate DC Comics’ Clown Prince of Crime with this deluxe hardcover journal showcasing the Joker rendered in gorgeous black-and-white linework by one of the artists who made their mark on the super-villain’s legacy. Few creators have defined The Joker's longstanding legacy, and artist Brian Bolland stands among the greats. Featuring original illustrations from his critically acclaimed run on DC Comics' Batman: The Killing Joke, this journal showcases his masterworks. With sturdy construction and sewn binding, this journal lies flat, and the 192 lined, acid-free pages of high-quality heavy stock paper take both pen and pencil nicely to invite a flow of inspiration.
