Superman: Emperor Joker


In “Emperor Joker,” Mr. Mxyzptlk, Superman’s impish sparring partner from the 5th dimension, decides to give the Joker, Batman’s insane nemesis, 1% of his cosmic powers as a prank. Tricked by the Clown Prince of Crime into revealing his secret name, Mxyzptlk is forced to surrender 99.9% instead. Chaos ensues as the Joker remakes the world in his twisted image, and becomes “Emperor Joker.” In this world, Superman is the most dangerous villain known to man, while Bizarro is Earth’s greatest hero. Superman must now help the JLA (a gang of criminals in this world) to remember the real Earth, and who they truly are, in order to enlist their aid and put an end to the Joker’s reign.

“Emperor Joker” runs through the Emperor Joker Special, Superman #160-#161, Adventures of Superman #582-#583, Superman: The Man of Steel #104-#105, and Action Comics #769-#770

Wiki--A comic book or comicbook, also called comic paper or comic magazine (often shortened to simply comic or comics) is a magazine made up of "comics"—narrative artwork in the form of separate panels that represent individual scenes, often accompanied by dialog (usually in word balloons, emblematic of the comic book art form) as well as including brief descriptive prose. The first comic book appeared in the United States in 1933, reprinting the earlier newspaper comic strips, which established many of the story-telling devices used in comics. The term "comic book" arose because the first comic books reprinted humor comic strips. Despite their name, comic books are not necessarily humorous in tone; modern comic books tell stories in a variety of genres.
