I read this story in single issues when it initially came out a couple years ago. I was going through a dark period at the time and this story helped me get through that. It will always hold a special place in my heart.

[@fishin4bass2002]

That’s good for you man, congrats!

[@NearMintCondition]

Those stories always mean more when they help you get out of a dark place. Glad you got out of it.

[@fishin4bass2002]

Jason Faboks art is amazing in this. Can’t get any better with this. The story isn’t bad at all. The only problem with this story is the delays involved and how it wasn’t part of continuity after being teased in the new 52. Imagine being told there are three jokers and then it never being mentioned again for 5 years?

[@baileyyaddle]

New intro is awesome Omar

[@Vardimiss]

Last shave joke I promise...Omar needs to grow a mustache so we have three Omars. Bearded, stache, and clean shave. Which is the real one? Not even Batman knows...

[@spider-than_comics]

So, 100 bucks for 3 issues? You can get a whole omnibus for 100 bucks!

[@UltimatePower01]

I got the 3 single issues with the special cards for $1 each lol.

[@spider-than_comics]

@@UltimatePower01 bruh, exactly

[@sugarray6250]

I dont understand why people think this story is bad? I freaking loved it!

[@fishin4bass2002]

It’s not, the only problem is how it came out years after three jokers were teased in new 52, so the story wasn’t part of main continuity.

[@dhmcadams662]

That's all that matters. Would be so boring if we all loved the same things. I'm looking forward to reading this hopefully over the weekend.

[@tomitaimi3112]

First of all it's criminal to waste Fabok's talent on 9-grid panels. Johns return to comics has been terrible. Three Jokers and Doomsday Clock are awful and just sad attempts from Johns to be Moore. The idea of 3 Jokers is stupid, and in the story not one of these 3 characters never felt like the real actual Joker. I really hate when they make these stories of Joker's "origin". Joker's origins should never be revealed.

[@5678hu]

Because the story is terrible? Geoff Johns wouldn't know how to write good Batman characters if they bit him in the butt. The story is meant to emulate The Killing Joke (which, to be fair, sounds like an amazing idea, and the art is phenomenal, no questions asked) but he finds a way to make these characters so generic and basic with no emotional weight behind them, and plot points which really make you go WTF: -Batman acts like a total douche throughout the story (with no sympathy towards Jason's suffering) -Bárbara acts entitled with a superiority complex towards Jason (because he couldn't find his way back to the light but she apparently could) -Batman compares Jason to Bárbara saying he hoped he was as strong as her, but he wasn't (I mean, getting beat to death might do that) -Joker being allowed to walk away scotfree with no consequences felt anticlimatic (the twist in KJ at least allowed you to imagine Bruce killing him) -Barbara/Jason romance -No characters get anything even close to closure Etc.

I really like Three Jokers l, read first Death in the family then killing joke and finally Three jokers. A good trilogy I guess, overall 9/10 for Three Jokers

[@ashleyn1979]

I feel we should not support this release seeing as its such poor value for money with 3 issues

[@Vardimiss]

Really hope we get a reprint of absolute Black Mirror.

[@mdb9920]

I got a copy if you want. Read once.

[@antoniocarneiro8474]

@@mdb9920 for how much are you selling it?

[@turtleanton6539]

Yes

[@joelgreenlee9421]

I really dig the new introduction. This book looks interesting, but I might wait for the trade on this one. Thanks for being awesome and for coming back from *****JAPAN*****

[@nathanwalters4867]

Deluxe edition please. I collect only omnis and deluxes. That's my format. DC really needs to do this, Doomsday Clock, Black Mirror (my favorite work of Scott Synder), and continue the trend of collecting all of Tom King's min/maxi-series in that format. Kingdom Come Deluxe reprint too. Take care and peace everyone.

[@ksmink631]

a 100 bucks for 3 issues...

[@turtleanton6539]

Indeed😅😅

[@Krypton_Ken]

Mine is on the way! I'm not even a big Joker fan, I think he's overused, but I loved this story. The connections to The Killing Joke, Death in the Family, and Under The Red Hood were done really well.

[@ryanportman8200]

Great video, so educational. New to the comic scene and learning loads from you.

[@turtleanton6539]

This is a good place tp learn😊

[@djsuth7727]

Got my copy about 3 weeks ago. Glad to see DC upping it's release of omnis/absolutes again :)

[@turtleanton6539]

Yes yes and yes😊

[@omarreyesjr1920]

Fabok is one of my favorite artists so ill need to grab this, not sure how i missed it on dcbs. Hermano, u doing a review of Superman Worldwar sage tpb? Im curious if its basically a compendium and how you think the binding will hold up?

[@phillipcummings3518]

Three issues for an absolute is honestly absurd.

[@turtleanton6539]

Looks pretty cool

[@bige6678]

100 is just WAY to much..... should have been 50 and maby i would have picked it up but god damn 3 issues for 100 usd

[@toeknee1505]

It would be nice for me to gt the Absolute, but I own the three issues. Thanks for the video, Omar!

[@velvetsuede7022]

As much as I'd love to have this on the shelf, for the price they're asking though, it's the hardest of passes.

[@emmanuelsilvera8032]

Is there an instrumental of the theme anywhere?

[@JakobFrankMogensen]

I hope we get a reprint of the Indiana Jones omnibus series. The secondhand prices are very steep these days.

[@mdb9920]

All these comments about money. It's an Absolute... You're paying for the awesome format. It's a collectible.

[@blaine7953]

I’m hoping for a few new Omni reprint announcements. But on this video I have read Three Jokers, thought the story was ok but the art is really good. Absolute is the best format for this book.

[@turtleanton6539]

Ofc😊😊😊

[@SD_Chris]

I enjoyed the book - then again I am a sucker for anything Geoff Johns writes - art was good, story was good, review of this book was excellent.

[@drock6287]

No trades video this week, brother? I understand why, if not, but wanted to ask

[@just__an__asshole]

It wouldve been cool if the absolute collected the 52 issue where it was revealed that there were three jokers

[@Kor33Com]

In this case i don't upgrade my standard hc edition. I'm happy with it.😊

[@y_auc60seb20]

Still waiting for the Batman: Knightfall omnibus vol 1 reprint

[@Annotate_]

I wasn't a fan of the story, but this is one Absolute I'd consider buying for the artwork. It's superb.

[@turtleanton6539]

Indeed it is😊

[@turtleanton6539]

Yes I think I just might

[@CarlosDias-er6dd]

I intend on getting the Killing Joke and a Death in the Family in a Deluxe Edition. Really hope they release the Three Jokers on a Deluxe format. I don't mind getting in Absolute format, but this particular one is too pricey for only three issues.

[@tobyhernandez3135]

Wasn't three jokers deluxe edition

[@CarlosDias-er6dd]

@@tobyhernandez3135 This edition is an Absolute.

Easy pass! Still waiting for Dark Knight Returns new priting, that's a classic!

[@turtleanton6539]

Indeed it is 😊

[@beastlaz]

I have the standard HC, but I gotta say I just never liked the story. To me there's only ever been 1 Joker so this story just felt really forced, especially as the way it was drawn to ape The Killing Joke. I hope it stays as an Elseworlds story, I'm surprised they made it an absolute, it just never seemed that important a story, but that's just my opinion. I don't own any Absolutes, they'd really mess up my shelving system ha-ha, but I would probably buy an OHC, (I know, it's a sickness)

[@Qthetar]

The comic is the highest selling DC comic in the last 12 years.

[@beastlaz]

@@Qthetar But it's down to personal taste, just because it sold a lot doesn't mean I have to like it. *Barbie' is breaking all box office records, doesn't mean I want to see ir.

[@Qthetar]

@@beastlaz I really like It. It’s about dealing with trauma for three characters because of the Joker and what he did and how each dealt with it differently.

[@theartistknownaszack9234]

It's not a bad story it's just idk

[@chazkhaira4690]

Didn’t like this story but I’ve never liked The Killing Joke I’m hope there’s a Dark Knight Returns Absolute with Dark Knight Master Race reprint skipping Dark Knight Strikes
