I was thinking, if Joker’s orgin is unknown, how do we know that today is his birthday? Since there’s 3 different Joker, which Joker is it celebrating his birthday? Sorry for asking!:grin:

Well, think of it this way:

August is the 8th month. So his birthday is 8/1.

What letters of the alphabet are 8/1?

Happy Birthday to all of the awesome August arrivals! :birthday: :partying_face: :champagne: :confetti_ball: :fireworks:

Some standouts for me:

Jim Lee on 8/11: A re-read of Divine Right is just right to celebrate this by. Maybe For Tomorrow too.

Jim Aparo on 8/24: Definitely going to revisit some of his work on The Brave and The Bold, Batman and Batman and The Outsiders.

Kirby on 8/28: I’m feeling a re-read of The Demon may be in order to commemorate The King, along with Super Powers volumes 1 and 2, and a rewatch of “Apokolips…Now!” from STAS.
