of all the "fed up, had too much, can't take it anymore" characters, I've never understood the Joker for people to project on. He's not even that kind of character

(Phillips' Joker toys with this by giving us the multiple choice question of whether Arthur is actually Thomas Wayne's son or not But it wasn't big enough an ambiguity to make this point, because Phillips wanted him to be unambiguously a victim)
-
I would've gone further and made the ambiguity be whether Fleck is out to avenge the death of his mother and girlfriend or whether he killed one or both of them himself (and whether the girlfriend was ever really his girlfriend)

KILLING JOKE has some serious issues, ofc (mostly around Barbara Gordon) but i think it's one of the most insightful portrayals of both Bats and the Joker in all of comics. The last page haunts me, it does such a powerful thing in so little space.

...last two pages, sorry. i misremembered. (i just went and looked it up.)
