This whole arc has just been so [frick]ing awesome and so [frick]ing amazing. Snyder and Capullo have been knocking it out of the park in this story. Really hope they stay on Batman past their contract of 50 issues.

People complain they changed Joker's origin when they haven't. I mean you gonna trust Crazy Quilt on what Joker's backstory is?

Snyder and Capullo!!! Cant get any better, lol. Love Joker and Court Of Owls.

And that Harley Quinn cover is awesome!

Snyder's been dropping the ball since Court of Owls, Endgame has been all over the place. That new Joker origin is stupid as shit

Amazing read! I agree.

Saying Joker's new origin is terrible considering Crazy Quilt told us his origin and we are talking about a character who is the definition of deception who throughout the years has tricked and lied to Bats and done stuff just to [frick] with his mind when we haven't ever read the full story arc to know if the origin is true or not....

Is like watching The Dark Knight and you stopped watching the film after the scene where Gordon "dies" because you didn't like the fact Gordon "died" even though there is still like half a movie left and anything could happen.

People gotta stop hatin' on the New 52, man. It's actually quite good. Better than Marvel's mess that AXIS caused.

I'm glad Snyder has introduced us to the new possibility for the Joker's origin. I feel everyone was getting a bit too comfortable with the Red Hood Origin

Batman is the only Batman title worth reading,if you ask me.

How long does the "New 52" have to be going before its no longer "New"?

Snyder and Capullo are amazing. This arc is awesome. The court of Owls is great.

@marvel72 agreed. It's one of the few new 52 worth reading, but among those holds the distinction of being one of the best comics out overall.

@CaptShipwreck no, that's just an alternate cover. The Joker right now has a normal face again

Can't believe I am agreeing with Gusto about anything.

Yes, the artwork is sooooooo good. Almost hurts. Kind of has a Quietly rawness without the squiggly lines.

DC are dropping the 'New 52' branding after Convergence. The universe will remain.

Great artwork, and the clown isn't immortal.......though the damage is far worse than any virus ;)

Endgame is seriously blowing my mind! I freaking love Snyder and Capullo's run on Batman. Court of Owls, Death of the Family, Zero Year, and now Endgame. I'm usually the type to wait for the graphic novel to come out, but Endgame is one of the few times I'm buying individual issues and I can't wait to read the next issue each time.
