Superman/Batman #65

This was a superb halloween special telling the story of how Superman, Batman, Joker, and Lex Luthor are captured by the Scarecrow and are somehow put to sleep and experience horrific nightmare. Each nightmare is drawn by a different artist and each artist’s style fits that particular nightmare. I liked all of them – especially Batman’s creepy Alfred kills his whole family story – and the Joker being angry that everyone finds it funny that he is killing. Johnson and Cherness prove they can write a good comic with this issue.
