We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
DC Comics and Warner Bros. Animation has decided to produce Batman: The Killing Joke. This is one of the few rated “R” animated movies that a company in the U.S. has made. If you are a fan of the Batman mythos you know this was a rough and traumatic story and there really was no other way to adapt this story and have the same resonance. So everyone be aware that this is a great heart breaking/gut wrenching story that is not intended for children.
Warner Bros. Animation announced that the next three DC Comics animated features. They will be Batman: Bad Blood, Justice League vs. Titans, and Batman: The Killing Joke. The Killing Joke is a very dark story so that is an interesting choice and how they will approach the story. Hopefully they will go a little beyond the story to show that Barbara Gordon doesn’t descend into a dark depression, but works her way through the incident that has changed her life.
