In the pages of Action Comics as of late, Lex Luthor has been running across some of the greatest villains of the DC Universe — so it was only a matter of time before meeting up with his sometime-partner, The Joker. Courtesy of DC Comics, here’s a preview of Action Comics #897, plus Justice Society of America #47 (part of the “Supertown” storyline).

Love how the Joker knows and teases Lex that the Cameras are “differently abled.” Lex thinks he is making a joke but the Joker knows the cameras are still active and reporting all to the Batman. One of his upgrades in one of the prior arcs.
