Why It Matters

Detective Comics #880 has become one of the defining modern Joker cover books. Jock’s haunting composition, with the Joker’s face formed from bat-like shapes, has made this issue a major target for Batman, Joker and modern cover collectors.

The issue sits within Scott Snyder’s celebrated Detective Comics run and is especially sought after for its cover artwork. A contemporary review described Jock’s cover as a “truly unforgettable image,” while later auction coverage around the original artwork described it as one of Jock’s most famous Batman covers.
