The joke is over. Batman's greatest enemy-his deadliest threat-is done toying with Gotham City. Now he means to end the game and destroy them for good.

The Joker's bloody-minded madness is exceeded only by his twisted genius. He is the Clown Prince, the Pale Man, and his crimes turn the world into one big sick joke. For him, evil is eternal. And when he unleashes his masterstroke, no one-not Batman, not the Justice League, not all of Gotham's guardians-will be able to make the laughter stop.

As the Joker plays his endgame with the Batman, citizens, villains and heroes alike must survive his deadly antics and come to terms with who the Joker is and what he means to them.

THE JOKER: ENDGAME collects BATMAN #35-40, ARKHAM MANOR: ENDGAME #1, BATGIRL: ENDGAME #1, BATMAN ANNUAL #3, DETECTIVE COMICS: ENDGAME #1 and GOTHAM ACADEMY: ENDGAME #1!

Title: ~This is no Joke, errr, DC made a mistake and we are the beneficiaries!~
Review: Even if you have all the issues of Endgame, it is money well spent to buy this in this collected effort. I have all the Batman comics and the individual issues of Batgirl and Detective Comics. But here, they are placed in their chronological order so as others have said, more background is given as a result. Under the dust jacket, you'll find the title embossed on the cover of the book, which is in all black. The binding is tight, and the pages are slick, beautiful and bright. DC states issues 35-39 are the only ones here, but issue 40 is here to feast on, as well.Unfortunately, no alternate covers are included here, but that's not a distraction, only an observation. Still, get it and enjoy the story, all over again, for the first time.No diggity. No doubt.

Title: Good buy
Review: Every once in a while I like to treat myself to a nice hardcover batman comic. I enjoyed reading out of this. The pages, cover and binding are all good quality and I expect it to last a long time especially since I baby my comics. This one does not match the other volumes. It seems to sort of be it's own special edition. I would totally recommend this unless you're anal about your comics being consistent.The story itself is great as well of course. Great read.

Title: Worth spending the extra buck vs. buying volume 7
Review: Snyder does it again after the fallow up on "batman: death of a family". Amazing, brutal, and questioning your best judgement on the joker, this novel gives us an insight to what is the joker in contrast to batman being an idea of true justice, but this time things become more personal between both batman and joker, means to an end... Permenantly.If you plan to buy the batman volume 7 I would strongly suggest you get this complete "joker: end game" instead. It includes the batman volume 7 and extras that adds more depth to the conflict and more depth to the madness that is joker.

Title: I admit, it surprised me
Review: The core of this story is to try to understand both Batman and Joker. The stories aren't there just too move a narrative, but to plumb the depths of the characters. It does a good job job, but leaves too many loose ends to be great story telling. I don't want all the ends tied up - that generally makes for poor story telling, too. But this story is all over the place, and never picks an identity. So it is a good story, and very enjoyable, but not a great story, as it could have been. Worth your time to read, though.

Title: Collects Batman 35 - 40 plus extras
Review: This actually collects Batman 35-40 (not 35-39 like description said when I placed my pre-order) plus some other goodies. I feel like this is Batman - End Game (Extended Version) You get more to the story, most of which is pretty cool. I absolutely love the End Game story by Snyder collect in the Batman Vol 7. The only thing I wasn't too into was Arkham Manor Endgame... but I like that they collected it here. I guess I got lucky, I was only charged 11 bucks for this due to when I pre-ordered...and it was at my door step when I got home from work. I think this was a great buy. As usual, Capullo's art is amazing. Batman & Joker fans should definitly pick this up. If you are on the fence on getting this or Batman Vol 7 ..... I would say get this version. Unless you are anal about having gollected all Batman volumes and you do not want to miss Vol 7...then I say, why not both? I would have dropped the score to a 3 if they did not include issue 40. The conclusion needed to be here.

Title: Great Story. Great Artwork. MUST READ!
Review: Any comic/graphic novel starring The Joker is a must read for me! I do wish that the artists would have had a bit more continuity with his look throughout, but the story was amazing! Better than "Death Of The Family" imo! He's more menacing, maniacal, and cunning than ever in "Endgame" and that's exactly how I like my Joker to be! READ IT! You won't be disappointed!

Title: I Really Enjoyed This One
Review: I've gotta say, this was a really cool read for a comic. Very pleased with it, a real brain screw up at times. Very spooky.

Title: Must Buy! A Classic!
Review: it is GODLIKE. You not only get Batman Endgame comics, you get other related comics from several sources. And pretty much the same price, which is great.Highly recommend it.The greatest rivalry in comics has reached a boiling point. The Joker isn't messing around any more, and Batman must find a way to stop him (like always). The Joker has devised a grand, sick, twisted, and convoluted plan to destroy Gotham and thwart the Batman. But will it work? (Answer is obvious, but hey, it isn't about knowing if Batman saves Gotham, it is about what takes place before it he does).

Review: As someone who really isn't that big of a fan of Joker I do gotta admit he's actually very well written & actually scary in this. Now that the story isn't actively trying to convince you that "it's different this time" (like in Death of the Family), it actually does feel that way. Good on Scott Snyder for learning from his mistakes & very well put together storyline, 9/10.

Review: Este TP contiene el evento ENDGAME completo, Batman 35-40, y los tie-in con las demás series de la familia del murciélago que son parte del evento (Detective Comics, Arkham Manor, Gotham Academy y Batman Annual #4).Debo advertir que no todos los tie-in son excelentes, pero no quiere decir que sean desperdicio de papel en esta recopilación. Batman Annual #4, Detective Comics y Batgirl son los buenos. Arkham Manor y Gotham Academy están rescatables.En cuanto a la historia principal que se publicó en la serie Batman, toca decir que es una maravilla, los lápices de Greg Capullo son sublimes y acompañan con gran fuerza la narrativa de Scott Snyder.El escritor logra dar con el clavo en enfrentar a dos adversarios no sólo de manera física, sino también de manera simbiótica, maneja esa dualidad de lo que son los personajes, lo que representan para cada una de las facciones a las que pertenecen. La historia muestra que al igual que Batman es una leyenda y un mito entre la gente de Gotham City, el Joker también lo llega a ser, y se representa muy bien en la portada del #40 de Batman. Hay algunos elementos que Snyder tomó del run de Grant Morrison en Batman, cosas que de verdad te dejan impactado y te hacen pensar en ambos personajes más a fondo. No voy a decir más sobre la historia porque no quiero arruinarla, pero te deja muy satisfecho y con gran sabor de boca. Hay opiniones encontradas en cuanto al run completo de Scott Snyder en Batman, pero es lo mejor que le ha pasado al personaje. Es un clásico está historia.Para los indecisos que no saben que edición comprar, si Batman Vol. 7 o The Joker: ENDGAME, no lo piensen más y elijan está última, además de obtener la experiencia completa, esta edición contiene las side-stories que se incluyeron al final de cada número de Batman en las que varios pacientes de Arkham cuentan una versión diferente sobre el origen del Joker, las cuáles no incluyeel volumen 7 de la serie Batman.Lo compré en Amazon EE.UU porque me salió más barato, debo decir que son muy rápidos en el envío, lo pedí el Domingo 31 de Julio y me llegó el 2 de Agosto. Muy rápido. Sólo quiero recomendar que sean más cuidadosos con este material ya que me llegó un poco maltratado de la esquina superior izquierda de la contraportada, pero nada grave.

Review: Just as Scott Snyder has created a defining version of Batman he has crafted a powerful arguement for the definitive Joker.There is a fascinating and compelling drive here to paint the Joker as an age-old force of nature rather than an insane crook and if it was allowed to take hold I believe I would welcome the view.This is as much a bookend to Snyder’s work though as it is a ongoing plotline, this effectively ends the Joker – and the batman for the foreseeable future which is dramatic but a shame as it feels like we’re only just learning the truth about both characters.This collection, rather than the other specific Bat titles, collects the wider Joker theme through all the Endgame specials and highlights the broad canvas Dc have create around their hero.This is not the Joker of the 1960s – or any other decade since, but this is engaging, entertaining, horrific and disconcerting, powerfully written and wonderfully paced.If you are not going to collect all the Bat titles in their own volumes this gives a wonderfully complete overview of this event and has everything you would want or need to fully enjoy the Joker’s greatest/final hour.My highest recommendation.
