COMICS: Gary Frank's DOOMSDAY CLOCK #5 Variant Cover Throws The Joker Into The Mix
Doomsday Clock artist Gary Frank has shared a variant cover for issue #5 featuring the Clown Prince of Crime. Will we finally get some answers in regards to that big reveal about there being three Jokers?
Doomsday Clock will bring the worlds of the DC Universe and Watchmen together for the first time and while much of the story is shrouded in secrecy, we do know that it's going to deal with Dr. Manhattan's role in The New 52 and other big changes which have been taking place in the worlds of these superheroes as of late. For example, why exactly are there now three different Jokers in existence?
Many fans believe it has something to do with the constant changes made to the DC Universe's reality through events like Crisis on Infinite Earths and Flashpoint and Dr. Manhattan's role in those.
We'll just have to wait and see but it appears as if the Clown Prince of Crime will be making his presence felt in Doomsday Clock if the variant cover below is any indication. As you can see, he's using Ozymandias' Veidt brand of makeup and there's a lot of other Watchmen related imagery in the photo too. What do you expect to see from The Joker in this story?
