Showcase 94 #1 The Joker

You know wherever the Joker shows up there is bound to be trouble. In DC Comics' Showcase 94 #1 The Joker (The New Gods, Gunfire) is no exception.  

Several stories make up the collection.  One features the Joker in a slightly different origin tale.

Gunfire fights a villainess with ultimate power on her mind and Metro and Orion of The New Gods star in a tale of the Wall of Souls.

Kevin Nowlan provides the outrageous Joker cover.

Joe White wakes up from a fever dream in an strange alien city.  In his dream he was the Joker battling against the Batman.

The dreams get worse and after waking up from another horrible nightmare he decides to take on the persona of the Joker.  Later he encounters the real monstrous Joker and a different sort of Batman.

Metron observes as Orion is beguiled by a golden skin beauty who tricks him into taking her place on the Wall of Souls only to have him escape and find herself forever trapped.

The Oblivion Front is hell bent on revenge and Gunfire faces as foe as powerful and resourceful as himself.

Three different tales-all of them spotlight individual DC characters in unusual situations.

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV) “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
