DC Rebirth’s 9 Best Moments So Far

It's been over a year now since Rebirth was born (see what I did there?). In that time, we've seen DC do a full tilt and bring back the good times to their popular superheroes and series. You see, despite what the Internet will have you believe, the New 52 wasn't all that bad - it just didn't feel like a DC event (except for Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's marvelous Batman run).

The Joker Is Alive And Well…In The Batcave

Recommended Videos

We’ve had several teases of the Joker throughout Rebirth, but the mystery of where he has been hiding all this time was finally revealed in Dark Days: The Forge #1. Yes, people, Batman had the critter locked up in his Batcave. Why would he do something so insane and dangerous? Because he’s the damn Batman and he can do whatever the hell he wants!

In the Dark Days prequels, we find out more about the Joker and his involvement in the Dark Knight’s latest escapades with the Nth metal. There have been some shocking reveals so far, but none quite like us finding out that the Clown Prince of Crime was hiding right there in plain sight. We hope that the Bat at least gave him some lotion for his skin…

Now that the fiend has escaped from the cave, though, he’s free to cause new and wondrous havoc in Gotham City again. Still, his first “official” appearance in Rebirth was a stunner and one that likely won’t be forgotten for a long time.
