No Joke. This Is A Stickup!

I pulled one panel from Batman #144 (© DC Comics 2024) drawn by Giuseppe Camuncoli and Stefano Nesi, then remixed them into my own version of The Joker making a terrible joke as he dumps sinister laughing gas into the local Starbucks while firing an AK-47 in the air to get everyone's attention.

Affinity Photo Workflow: Panel pulled, dialog balloon replaced with my own weak joke.  Frame created with vignette overlay.  Gas recolored to green to be more Joker-appropriate.  A variety of masks are applied to alter the look (such as reflection).  New deadly laughing gas was added to the canister in his hand.  Mixed some skull-and-crossbones into the nasty green gas.  Replaced the original Joker face with another grabbed from a different source so we could see his psychotic grin way better.
