Inspired by the New 52-era Batman Vol. 3: Death of the Family, this particularly nightmarish and meticulously accurate representation of Snyder’s and Capullo’s Joker exists in the form of a menacing lawn ornament that shall certainly stand out from the rest of the neighborhood’s lawn gnomes with more than merely a striking smile. Seriously, look at this thing. It might make your obnoxious neighbor think twice about taking his bull mastiff for a secret 6:00am bowel movement upon your lawn, right next to the freshly bloomed hydrangeas; you don’t want a voluminous mound of canine droppings plopped next to your delicate and expensive flowers, do you? No, indeed.
This little lawn friend goes by the name of the Joker Ground Breaker, particularly because he would obviously appear to be breaking free from the ground, much like a partially sentient, sapient, psychopathic knife-wielding zombie emerging from the grave to rise from the dead for one last kill. His measurements are 34 inches by 24 inches by 10 inches, while his price is $89.99. Whether you’re looking for a sick Halloween prop, or are a nutty Batman fan sadistically looking for a reason for your overly sensitive neighbor lady to complain all year long, the Joker Ground Breaker is the lawn friend for you. Furthermore, if your idiot neighbor’s twelve-year-old kid wants to sneak out at 11:00pm to cut your Christmas lights with his dad’s beard-trimming scissors, you should pair this bad boy with a nice little spotlight, so that little Johnny wets his pants. Maybe lay out some caltrops on the lawn, too. Just a thought. Have a nice day.
By the way, are there any Frank Zappa fans out there that have noticed Joker’s “Joe’s Garage” jumpsuit, which is most likely a direct reference to the satirical progressive rock jazz fusion rock opera album of the same name?
Here’s Frank Zappa:
