Coincidentally, Batman Annual 3 came out this week, and it's one of the best, and spookiest, Joker stories I've read in a long time.

MPauli, thanks for doing all this, and extra credit for posting on Christmas!

Off to look at Joker options.

If you're still taking people I'd very much like to sign up for this- DC please :-)

The Last Unicorn Any objections to me using The Last Unicorn as a horse/Pegasus for Valkyrie 3?

Marvel team: Should I go for The Joker reads or our Hero reads after the BotM reads? So many choices....aaahhh! :-)

Ren Well I do love the Joker, but I think I'll sign up for team Marvel!

Ok, two things:

1) I have all my Joker books!

2) I think there's a typo on Witchblade: 1. The Witchblade
Read a book with a gauntlet (can be worn) on the cover or with a sentient/living. I think there's a word or two missing there.

I lied. 3) Happy New Year!


message 60: by Nara (new)

Nara (greengp01) Happy New Year to everyone!
And with that:
A Wicked Thing/The Joker/Joker Venom/1 of 3

Didn't actually expect this book to fit the challenge- but halfway through, BAM someone gets poisoned haha

And also, I'm okay with anyone being the team captain. I don't really read comics, so I'm not familiar with a lot of these characters (I have seen most of the movies though!)

Rinn (rinnsohma) | 3456 comments Mod
Haha, I love it when that happens - books unexpectedly fitting the challenge of course, not characters being poisoned! ;)

Joker 2. Arkham Asylum Severance Package When you decide to close your office for business by killing everyone in it, I do believe that qualifies as sociopathic.

Rinn (rinnsohma) | 3456 comments Mod
Haha, sounds like it ;)

Sam (aramsamsam) | 364 comments Does Warm Bodies Warm Bodies (Warm Bodies, #1) by Isaac Marion qualify for Deadpool 3 "blood on the cover"? Just in case R decides to not eat more than nine brains...

Lesley has psychopathic behavior and a few of the characters seem to be sociopaths because of plot-related stuffs.

Edit: I'm team Marvel

I can see blood in those vessels; blood was asked for, so I'm good. :)

Clarification Question: For Rick Grimes 2. There's a new Sheriff in town
Read a book with a sheriff/cowboy the cover or where a sheriff/cowboy is one of the main characters.

Does it need be a sheriff (the one in charge of a sheriff's department) or would a deputy sheriff (like a poilce officer) do?

Wayland Smith | 3561 comments Mod
Superman 2 Clark Kent Festive in Death Recurring character Nadine Furst, reporter and novelist, shows up. This is actually her smallest role that I can recall, but she's still in the book and even identifies herself as a reporter.

Yeah, there's a definite Marvel/DC imbalance in the offing. I blame/credit the Marvel movies, which rock, and the DC ones which, as a rule, suck.
