One bad day in Gotham built in bricks

Batman: The Killing Joke, by Alan Moore and Brian Bolland, is considered by many to be the definitive Joker story with its bleak origin story and striking imagery. LEGO and comics fan Toryman translates the punchline of Jack’s bad day as he goes from Red Hood to Joker. The builder captures Bolland’s colors beautifully, where the red costume and green chemicals pop in against monochrome bricks.  The top half of the scene mirrors the comic panels’ changing perspective, but it’s that last panel that looks best in LEGO, with extra depth that lets the brick-built typography fill the space. It’s funny how well it works.  So why aren’t you laughing?
