Hmm… I guess this means we won’t be seeing that guy again anytime soon 0_O
For any of you who aren’t as familiar with the Joker’s origin story in the Batman comics*, or who might not remember the Batman movies of an earlier vintage, this clip sums it up nicely: the Tim Burton Batman movies were one of the earliest entries I had into Batman and the Batman mythology… following the earliest influences I had, of course…:-D
It was actually really fun to draw this over the past couple of updates – Although I don’t plan to make a habit of including too many wannabee supervillains in the strip, playing around with the iconic features of the Joker has given me a few ideas to bring into the design of the next original supervillain for Average Joe – I’ll try to be a little more visually interesting than your average Joe blow in a tracksuit 
Looking forward to showing you guys what I can work out! Until then, be sure to tune in on Wednesday for the start of the next mini-arc 
See you then Averageers!

*Today’s title is inspired by the title of a certain Batman comic…can anyone guess which one in the comments? 
Thank you for killing a possible copyright infringement asap.
*ahem* The Jester is a unique and completely original concept, thank you very much *pout*
…huh? What do you mean “earth-two”?…;-)
Regardless, I like your choice of words there
Never trust a villain that jumps into the barbecue sauce too willingly…
I know, right? He seemed awful eager for their confrontation to go down a certain way. You’d expect your good quality villain to at least throw a few minions in there first…
Oooh oooh, I know, I know! I won’t spoil it for the others though (T.K.J.)
Gold Star!
I just regret I wasn’t more into DC comics earlier in my life – by the time I read this one, I was really familiar with Oracle, and I don’t think I’d read a single story with Batgirl (that wasn’t a flashback): have to imagine the impact it would have had on me if I’d known them the other way around
