Last week, we took a look at what a prologue was and how it could be used. Just to catch you up, a prologue is an opening of a story, or in this context, a comic, that establishes the scene, theme and/or tone of the rest of the narrative ...

Through Joachim Phoenix's Joker we get to watch the origin story of a villain ...
Rest and review
