Joker
UPDATE : April Fools ! Punchline is n’t one of the three Jokers , but that would ’ve been a crazy plait !
SinceJoker’snew girlfriendPunchlinemade her comic strip debut , there ’s been serious hypothesis worry exactly how DC Comics planned to apply her in future storylines . Now that enigma has finally been revealed , with confirmation Punchline will in reality be one of the trinity of scoundrel come in the farseeing - awaitedBatman : Three Jokersminiseries .
Punchline has been a hit eccentric for DC since shefirst appeared as Joker ’s new lady friend . That issue ( and subsequent appearances ) have sold out completely , as Punchline ’s place in the scoundrel ’s story was hype by everyone in the know . The villainess is prepare to play a fundamental role in the upcoming ' Joker War , ' and this knife - wieldinganti - Harley Quinnwill fight her pivotal opposite in an upcoming result ofBatman .

Johns will be telling theThree Jokersstory with artist Jason Fabok , and addressed their plans for Punchline in the three - proceeds miniseries – revealing Batman will be making the same find in what hopes to be one of the most memorable twists in late year :
We are incredibly emotional to introduce a Modern version of Joker to the DC canyon . James [ Tynion IV ] and Jorge [ Jimenez ] have created a compelling , occult character that Jason [ Fabok ] and I are excited to flesh out in THREE JOKERS . In our first issue of the series , Batman and Joker wind up in a barbarous car chase , which all culminates in a annihilative crash . Joker scarcely survives , but the man who come forth is not the one you gestate . I would have sex to say more , but that ' unmasking ' is a import that we undertake will be worth the wait for fans .
Batman ca n’t catch a break . Not only does he have to deal withthreeJokers at the same time , but one of them seems to have a completely different plan at work . Punchline has gone for Harley ’s pharynx in trailer images , but it seems Batman has been her true quarry all along . Still , the interrogation remains : which one of the three Jokers is not who they seem to be ? Punchline has been incur close to Joker and seemingly get word his interior thoughts and behaviour . Will Punchline becoming the Joker set up a novel era for the Clown Prince of Crime , with a female version now in charge ? It would be a fascinating yet controversial direction for the iconic scoundrel , but what ’s go away to hap to the other Jokers ? It ’s safe to assume they wo n’t be thrilled with the reveal .
It is an exciting , wholly unexpected development . But after all the plug Punchline received , it ’s no surprise to see DC doing something so bold with the character reference . But block the hype – now buff will get to see the Joker in an all - unexampled light asPunchline’sjourney becomes even more chaotic . For the prison term being reader can jibe outthe full press releasefor all the item , and what ’s sure to be some acute fallout once this reveal spreads .
