Shared it on our facebook and twitter feeds. Great video.

Thank you very, very much, dear Mr. Rodgers (from one Bat-fan to another)! And I would also to use this opportunity to thank The Laughing Fish, Azrael and Grissom for additional support and understanding, you guys are the best!

Update #1: Mr. Hamill unexpectedly (just like the Joker himself) showed up during our #BatmanDay-related discussion of the Joker TV Special project on Twitter and wrote the following: "Like all great actors @JaredLeto made the part his own! #Respect"

Update #2: Mr. Hamill just told us (myself & Mr. Nelson): "Well done, but WB wouldn't appreciate me weighing in on their plans. Much too controversial at this point. #NoJoke" https://twitter.com/HamillHimself/status/911716023543271424

And Mr. Hamill also liked the following reply o'mine: "We respect all the Jokers, from all mediums, in all shapes and sizes)))" https://twitter.com/ObservofCreativ/status/911684641014390784

It's been a wild ride, dear ladies & gents of Batman-Online community! Thank you all for your active support and understanding! Wish we could've gone viral with his video project, but at least we have made a small difference and created something truly different, fresh and special. And so our great crusade comes to its natural conclusion.

Goodbye & sweet dreams! I would like to leave everyone with this beautiful, touching and poignant melody (that, like our video project, captures the essence and the nature of the character perfectly)...

Best wishes,

Yan Eden & Jay Nelson.

Since we are receiving so much active support and encouragement for our Joker TV Special, I decided that the time has come to finally share this personal footage of mine with all of you.

It was the first time in my life when I was fortunate enough to meet Mr. Jerry Robinson (January 1, 1922 – December 7, 2011; an American comic book artist known for his work on DC Comics' Batman line of comics during the 1940s. He is also best known as the co-creator of Robin and the Joker and for his work on behalf of creators' rights) and interview him at great length for the Hollywood Reporter Magazine (International Edition) about the origins and the history of the Clown Prince of Crime at San Diego Comic-Con (July, 2011).

As far as I am aware, this was one of the last interviews that Mr. Robinson gave in his life. Unfortunately, Mr. Jerry Robinson passed away on the 7th of December, 2011 (five months after we had our wonderful, in-depth discussion of the Joker and how he was interpreted in a variety of creative mediums).

Without him, there would be no Joker admirers all over the world, there would be no animated or live action versions of him, and of course, there would be no wonderful musical compositions by such giants of the industry as Shirley Walker, Danny Elfman and Hans Zimmer.

If you have any Joker/Batman-related questions about our discussion with Mr. Robinson, I'll be more than happy to answer them.

We were really lucky to receive the support from such marvelous individuals as:



* Will Friedle (Terry McGinnis/Batman Beyond), Alex Maleev, Paul Gulacy
* Wesley Burt (Arkham Origins concept artist), Dan Jurgens, Walt Simonson

* Jerry Ordway, J. M. DeMatteis, Mico Suayan, Paul Gulacy, Dan Mora
* David Michelinie, Patrick Zircher, John Semper Jr. (Spider-Man: The Animated Series creator & Cyborg writer)

* Charlie Schlatter (the voice of the Flash in a lot of WB shows, including Justice League Action), James Tucker (of the Brave & The Bold Fame), Chris McKay (Lego Batman/Nightwing) and many other talented and well-respected creators & artists.

You're getting some big names in the business, and for that you have to be congratulated.

Thank you so much for your kind words, dear The Dark Knight! I'm really glad that there is one particular person, not from that list: Mike Carlin of DCAU fame (he's still actively developing their upcoming DTV projects) took notice of our own Jay Nelson (the voice behind our new version of the Joker) and said some really nice things about his vocal performance.

So, you never know, maybe in 6-7 years Mr. Nelson is going to become the new animated Joker)))

Just put out a new e-dition with @DailyPlanetDC on Twitter where I talk about meeting and interviewing the legendary Jerry Robinson (Joker's father) for the first time and where we exchanged various thoughts about the Clown Prince of Crime.
