In , after a four-year disappearance, the Joker was revived and revised by writer Dennis O Neil and artist Neal Adams. Beginning withBatman s The Joker s Five-Way Revenge , the character returns to his roots as an impulsive, homicidal maniac who matches wits with Batman. 0 This story began a trend in which the Joker was used, sparingly, as a central character. O Neil said his idea was simply to take it back to where it started. I went to the DC library and read some of the early stories. I tried to get a sense of what Kane and Finger were after. O Neil s run introduced the Joker s legal insanity, the reason he was sent to Arkham Asylum then Arkham Hospital after its creation in instead of to prison. Adams modified the Joker s appearance, changing his more average figure by extending his jaw and making him taller and leaner

This book has increased dramatically over the last couple years.
