It's easily the best Batman comic out there.
Mind if I ask why do you capitalize every word you type? Just curious.

It is my favorite Bat-book hands down. And that newer edition is fantastic because they redid the paint. Which either way doesn't matter because the book was tremendous anyway. Buy it. Especially for the last few panels which are something you would never think you'd see.

It's a great read, and great twist to the joker back story. Why do you uppercase every word?

I wouldn't say it's the best Batman comic out there at all, but it is good. Pick it up.

It is no where near the best Batman comic...

It's a very good read, I just wish it was longer. I believe it portrays The Joker in his most sadistic interpritation.
(I should add that when I say this, I mean from the graphic novels I've read).

It is no where near the best Batman comic... Give me a break. You make it sound like it's horrible. Name some that are better and why. Edit: Before you possibly misinterpret my post, I have no problem with you not agreeing that it's the best Batman comic. But when you say something as harsh and as bold as "no where near the best" it's just flat out untrue.

Could be because it's moreso a Joker story. . . but to the original poster, it was written by Alan Moore, the same guy behind Watchmen.

It's one of the only comics I've ever read. I got it a couple of years ago, the day after the Heath Ledger 'revealed' as the Joker picture was released actually, and read it during my free periods at school. Needless to say I looked quite nerdy and nobody believed me when I said "the next Batman movie will be massive. Get on the bandwagon now."

It's probably the best Batman/Joker comic ever written, very dark for it's time. Alan Moore is incredible.

Just finished reading it. It's truly amazing and very dark. the last bit (after the afterword) is very unexpected. I would reccomend it to anyone interested in Batman.

Well, I enjoyed The Long Halloween better, mostly because of the storyline and because it wasn't focused only on one character. Don't get me wrong, I loved The Killing Joke, but I just liked others better.
