Scott Snyder, renowned for his work on Absolute Batman, has just revealed a glimpse of a remarkable new evolution for the Joker. The teaser was shared through a Twitter post, showcasing a grotesque, reptilian humanoid figure adorned with the Joker's iconic features, set to debut in Absolute Batman #15, scheduled for release in December. The striking imagery draws parallels to the Titan Joker from the 2009 video game, Batman: Arkham Asylum. While this new incarnation isn’t as grotesquely disfigured, it bears similar spinal spikes and a hulking physique.

This rendition introduces a variety of menacing attributes, including elongated claws, spiked horns, and a tail, alongside hints of amphibious characteristics reminiscent of the classic Joker Fish from Batman: The Animated Series. The speculation continues as to whether this figure is the Absolute Joker or one of his monstrous creations.

Additionally, coming this October, the one-shot comic Absolute Evil #1 will explore the underbelly of the Absolute Universe, featuring notorious villains—Ra’s al Ghul, Veronica Cale, and Hector Hammond among others. This issue promises the debut of two pivotal characters destined to reshape the unfolding narrative, making it a must-read for fans of this burgeoning comic line.

With Absolute Batman #15 on its way, expectations are high for Snyder's innovative take on DC's most notorious villain. Let’s stay tuned for the chaos it promises to unleash.
