Query: Don't buy the HARDCOVER!

This hardcover is the Star Wars Special Edition of comics. Brian Bolland destroyed a great comic by re-coloring it on his computer. The Killing Joke had that great 80s color palette that you can find in Watchman and some of the best Vertigo Comics like Sandman and Preacher. Bolland defaced a work of art. In his remorseless forward to the hardcover, he acts as the comic's success belongs all to him and not Alan Moore or John Higgins. Higgins coloring on Hellblazer and Watchmen are some of my all time favorites. Thank god Bolland didn't go in and destroy those with his computer too. Bolland's lack of respect is sickening. True fans are just going to have to keep waiting for a real hardback of The Killing Joke.Batman: The Killing Joke
