Description

This is the cover for the concluding issue to No Man's Land, the famous arc that spanned through several titles for almost the entirety of 1999. And of course the climax had to be reached with apprehending the Joker. This issue was also published in the TPB titled The Joker: A Celebration of 75 Years.

I was fortunate enough to have a good friend pass this along to me. With Batman and Joker on a cover what more can you ask for. The simple background makes each detail stand out even more.

Ditto what everyone else has already said. It offers simplicity on the surface but is deceptively complex, and really gives this such a wonderful sharp focus, depth and power to what is one of the greatest conflicts in all of comics. Great one.

Always very tricky to use white as a way to convey a full mind-picture. Takes some mastery, happily demonstrated here in spades by 2 masters!
