John Carpenter to co-write Joker comic

DC Comics have announced that the master of horror himself John Carpenter is teaming up with Anthony Burch to write a special one-shot Joker comic entitled “Joker: The Year Of The Villain”.

The logline reads;
“Now a human-alien hybrid, Lex Luthor has made his appeal to the world, asking its citizens to embrace doom and give in once and for all to evil, humanity’s true nature. In exchange, he will grant them the tools to ascend to their ultimate selves. While some DC villains (and heroes) are willing to hear what “Apex Lex” has to offer, the Clown Prince of Crime isn’t going to wait around until Lex gets to him. This puts The Joker on a mission to get his swagger back in a world gone bad by out-badding everyone else, proving that the greatest evil is always the one that leaves them laughing.”
