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.

The Joker Laughs As He Gets A Beatdown

I pulled panel elements from a couple pages of the issue of Batman #142 (© DC Comics 2024) drawn by Giuseppe Camuncoli and Stefano Nesi, then remixed them into my own version of The Joker getting a beat down provided to him by some Gotham City thugs.

Affinity Photo Workflow: Thugs pulled out and adjusted to show movement.  Machete and crowbar elements were added for more fun.  Masked and mixed in Joker's HAHA into the background, radial-gradient added, then recolored everything green.  Painted in grass.

The Joker, Batman, and Donald Trump walk into a bar together...

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 self-referencing joke to Batman: The Killing Joke as he walks into a bar.

Affinity Photo Workflow: Dialog balloon added with my own weak joke.  Hand-created the frame. Some minor half-tone/masking filters to adjust color saturation a smidge.

The Batman Finally Murders The Joker

I extracted a batch of panels throughout the issue of Batman #140 (© DC Comics 2023) drawn by Jorge Jiménez to provide my own truncated version of Batman beating the cr*p out of The Joker.

The Joker meets Johnny Dangerously

I yanked a single panel from The Batman and Robin Adventures #5 and created my own improved word "It shoots through schools" word balloons to match the scene better, an homage to Johnny Dangerously. The original art panel before my alteration was drawn by Tim Harkins & Rick Burchett. Hi-rez link.

Harley Quinn punches The Joker

Harley Quinn breaking up with The Joker (again). Original art by Adriana Melo with minor panel tweaks and balloon edits by TrUzEDIT.

Even the Joker cries aka Every clown has a sad day.

I scanned a page from Batman: The Brave and the Bold #1 whose original artwork was created by Mitch Gerads and then did some sleight of hand removing an extra character, tweaking things a bit, and adding some text to make an even sadder-looking clown.  Nothing is lonelier than a wet clown sitting by himself on a park bench pathetically holding onto his last party balloon.

Every clown has a bad day...

The Joker Behind Bars

I took the artwork from DC Comics Batman issue #128 (2022) and edited Leonardo Romero's final panel into my own version isolating the frame only to The Joker looking out from his Arkham Asylum cell.
