The Joker is about the story of Walking Pheonix, a gang leader from the future who was cryogenically frozen by John Spartan after a fatal last battle in a warehouse in Australia. Soon after waking up in the post apocalyptic future of 1997 Walking meets Bat-man a character resembling Leonardo Da Vinci's drawing ornithopter. They become best friends, until apes arrive and kidnap Bat-Man and remove his brain out with an ice cream scoop. Walking then has to fight his way off planet Earth with nothing but shoelaces and a rock, thankfully while hiding in a cave he discovers plutonium which allows him to create a nuclear powered rocket ship to escape the planet. But then Walking Phenoix discovers a secret blood mining operation by the American company EA, so he returns with a vengence, creating a new truce with the Apes (as they also don't like blood mining operations) and gather together to fight for the freedom for people not to have their blood mined.
