In this topsy-turvy tale of a world gone wrong, the Man of Steel is a hunted villain, while his imperfect duplicate, Bizarro, is hailed as a champion. With the heroes of the JLA altered almost beyond recognition, it's up to Superman to help his allies rediscover their true selves in an incredible struggle against the Joker, Emperor of the Universe. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - What a Read!Laugh out loud funny, touching and scary; this one has it all. If you have any history with DC, you will love it. If you don't, read it near someone you can ask. Rating:  - Chaos reignsMy first impression of the book was "this makes no sense whatsoever!!!". Generally, when I have that reaction, I find it difficult to continue...but given that I knew this was "Emperor Joker" I plowed on bravely. And I'm glad I did as the intricate insanity was unfolded. Indeed, this is to a tee what The Joker might do given powers such as Myx's. Some of the torturous deeds he unleashed were almost painful to witness.

Well I came in and expected a pretty good book and I came away disappointed. There were some good elements but, the Joker just wasn't what you expected in this he wasn't what you expect from him. The art wasn't bad but, I can't say I really reccomand this to anyone other then diehard Superman fans. Rating: - good but not greatThis book never really did it for me. It's a great premise and beautifully drawn. But it never hits home. It's too simple really. The Joker is a much more complex character than this and the world seems like a bad idea of what the Joker would do. Like his treatment of Batman. Rating:  - Comics should be fun, and this isn't.What a drudge. Don't waste your time on this volume. I had to struggle to finish it, and i'd rather read good comics than anything.
