From what I had read in the “Killing Joke” I
could see a reimagining of one of comics most famous figures into how we now
see the Joker as we do in todays media. From experiencing any type of media
that is about the Batman we can see how events in this comic the author takes a
pivotal villain and make him that much more dangerous, and gives us a sense who
this villain is that is and we see this version of this character almost every
time he is portrayed in modern media. While I thought that the story was fairly
interesting I was very distracted by some of the drawn elements throughout the
entire circus seen towards the middle end, as much of it was nonsensical and
not really important to the overall plot.

I felt that this story’s most powerful elements
were the psychological pieces that played into the character development. What
was interesting about this was that most of the character development was
mostly spent of the villain instead of the hero as with most normal stories,
but it did come back to development for the hero as well as Batman had to come
to terms with how he would need to handle his nemesis in the aftermath of this
story.

If I were to adapt this story into another
medium I would probably try to adapt it to a more word based novel form. By doing
this I could remove most of the elements that were very nonsensical and overall
not important to the story such as some of the random Joker henchman or what
ever they were. I could also spend more time delving into the psychological
aspects of the character development for all of the characters instead of just
the villain.
