So I'm really out of the loop with DC at the moment (I heard it got rebooted again and Watchmen are part of the new continuity?) but what the unholy fuck is this shit about 3 Jokers? The last DC book I read was Endgame and they'd already attempted a Joker twist. Why do another one?

>I heard it got rebooted again
You heard wrong
>>83209898
Then could you please explain, anon?

It wasn't rebooted. The New 52 is pre Flashpoint DC but with time removed. The only things different going forward are Wally is back as is post crisis Superman. As far as we know only Manhattan is in main continuity and we don't know what's going on with the three Jokers yet but it's obviously going to be more than it seems

No reboot, just some major retcons.
The New 52 was retconned to be the same universe as pre-New 52 DC except with different continuity due to some asshole having altered the universe (but again, not actually making a new universe).
Wally West is back for real. A few other legacy characters are returning. Superman is back.. The REAL Superman. Watchmen is a separate universe in the DC Multiverse, but now they're crossing over into the regular DC Universe. There may or may not be multiple Jokers now, we don't know.

What does Post Crisis mean here? Post-COIE? Post-Infinite Crisis?

Because Joker has a wide variety of interpretations ranging from the murderer killer maniac to the wacky and funny deathtrap joker. With three jokers, this allows writers the chance to use a different joker for every situation without having to constantly change the personality of one joker from book to book.
DC's new mantra is story over continuity so with three jokers, we're going to see better stories than having continuity to worry about.
>>83209886Batman tries to find out who Joker is from the Mobius Chair, it tells him there's three of them. Batman isn't entirely sure what it all means yet, but it'll probably be explained later in Rebirth.

Is it a stupid gimmick that will be abandoned like one of the countless threads post New52 or is it something different? Be sure and buy every issue of Rebirth to find out!

Rebirth only has one issue. That's it. They put out a "special" one-shot to introduce the retcons and that's literally the whole thing. No miniseries, no "event", no cash grab, just a simple retcon. It'll be permanent unless it flops.
If the 3 Jokers are true it's those specific ones, wouldn't that mean Batman encoutered the same red hood twice?
It will fail >> reboot AD NAUSEUM

first of all, checked and witnessed.
second, who knows. it seems like theyve been slowly but surely turning nubo back into oldbo by making him crazier, angrier, and more disheveled
>>83210226
Already did it, bought that one issue of Rebirth.
Okay, okay.
The gangster one is jack nappier.
The Killing Joke one has the Killing Joke origin.
The overly murderhobo one is the Comedian.
Is this ok?
>>83213349
>The Killing Joke one has the Killing Joke origin.
That's the one everyone is going to accept as the genuine article. Why bother with 3 if everyone wants THAT Joker.
>>83213465
Because then you get to have KJ one kill the other two for being idiots who can't get a single joke.
>>83213349
I have a bad feeling that if they do make one of the Jokers the comedian it will be Killing Joke, purely because 1) Moore and 2) the rape
