On behalf of his family, we are sad to share that Gerry Conway has passed away. Gerry was a tremendous icon in comics who shaped pop culture itself. He was a dear friend, partner, and mentor, and our hearts are with his family and the millions he touched through his work.

Everyone loves a deeply flawed character with a dark sense of humor… and The Joker’s always been a crowd-pleaser. Happy anniversary to one of the Caped Crusader’s greatest rogues, who made his comic debut in BATMAN #1. Written by Bill Finger, with pencils by Bob Kane, and inks by Bob Kane and Jerry Robinson.
