As a DC Comics fan, it’s been really sad to see how LEGO has treated the line. We’ve only seen one set this year, and it was a 4+ set, and even before that it felt like they would just throw out Batmobile after Batmobile with any character not named Batman getting next to no attention. I mean Superman hasn’t even appeared in a set for almost five years. We just got a highly marketed movie in Black Adam, and no lego sets were even made for it, despite featuring multiple fan favorite characters that would have made for some killer minifigs. I get it probably doesn’t make as much as the Marvel sets, but I feel like that has to at least somewhat be because of the lackluster line up of sets. There’s so much potential in sets of the Daily Planet, Fortress of Solitude, Oa, etc. I just feel like the lack of any real news or rumors for any sets coming out next year except maybe a new batcycle set has really sealed its fate in my mind. Does anyone else feel a bit more hopeful, or are most people in agreement that this line is, for all intents and purposes, dead? ... https://brickset.com/article/84859/is-lego-dc-finished

The Joker™ gets a big laugh from killing, torturing and terrorizing the good people of Gotham City. The character first appeared in the debut edition of DC Comic’s Batman™, in 1940, and has been Batman’s number one adversary ever since. His twisted, sadistic sense of humor is matched by his creepy clown appearance. With white skin, green hair and bright red lips resulting from a fall into a tank of chemical waste – it is believed it was his disfigurement that drove him insane. The Joker has no superpowers, just an obsessive need to wreak havoc and an extensive expertise in chemical engineering. He combines both these aspects of his personality by developing lethal chemical compounds. If not poisoning, the Joker takes great pleasure in clown-related weapons, such as deadly hand buzzers and playing cards with razor edges. With countless television and movie appearances, on top of his extensive back catalog of books and comics, the Joker has become one of the most iconic characters in modern culture. As such, the character features in many action figure toys and LEGO® playsets.
