Collectible Time: Entertainment Weekly's Joker Magazine

To celebrate the release of Joker: Foile a Deux, Entertainment Weekly has released a collector's edition on the chilling, first chapter of Todd Phillips/Joaquin Phoenix saga, as well as those garish Jokers who've come before, including Heath Ledger, Jared Leto, Jack Nicholson, Mark Hamill and Cesar Romero. 

Phoenix's portrayal, however, is upfront and center, covering his weight loss for the role and the essentiality of his "messy makeup," fortified by side facts, such as Bradley Cooper's indirect connection to Phillips' brash reintroduction of the DC legend. 

Sensational sections on Batman 1966, Batman 1989, The Dark Knight and Suicide Squad pad the mag, with an overview of the Joker's animated exploits, a Harley Quinn rundown and a sneak peek of Joker's new chapter, costarring Lady Gaga as Ms. Quinzel. (Supplemental sections on Phoenix and Gaga's lives and careers are included.)

Entertainment Weekly's Joker is a colorful tribute to Batman's most foremost foe, and one that all DC fans should add to their collections. Copies can be found at drugstores and supermarkets nationwide.
