SPOILER ALERT: the following article contains massive spoilers, including the ending. If you have not yet seen the movie, proceed at your own risk!
Based on the influential as well as controversial 1988 comic book of the same name by Alan Moore (writer), Brian Bolland (illustrator), and John Higgins (colorist), ‘Batman: The Killing Joke’ is a provocative exploration of the relationship between Batman and the Joker. With Bruce Timm serving as one of the co-producers, Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill returned to the DC animated universe to reprise their roles from ‘Batman: The Animated Series’. The new additions to the cast include Tara Strong as Barbara Gordon or Batgirl, Ray Wise as Commissioner James Gordon, Brian George as Alfred Pennyworth, and Robin Atkin Downes as Detective Harvey Bullock. While the film remains mostly faithful to the source material, Brian Azzarello’s script does have an extra sexual tangent between Batman and Batgirl.
SPOILERS AHEAD.
