Bill Sienkiewicz: All Star Batman and Robin

Shown above is the variant cover art by Bill Sienkiewicz for All Star Batman and Robin, The Boy Wonder #12 which is due to hit the streets on August 27th. What makes this cover work so well is that the Joker isn’t a xerox of an live action actor, yet he’s not so cartoony either. With Sienkiewicz what we get is a stunning surrealistic portrait where the dramatic sense of lighting which goes back to the film noir roots of Batman.
