One of the Greatest Joker Covers Ever Is Becoming a LEGO Nightmare for Your Wall

One of the greatest comic book covers of all time is, hands down, Jock’s Joker cover for Detective Comics #880. His style is instantly recognizable, but that cover? I’d call it his magnum opus. It’s been reprinted and paid homage to a gazillion times, and I still love looking at it.

Now LEGO is turning that nightmare into 1,849-piece wall art, with preorders open for $169.99 and shipping beginning January 1, 2027. You can order it directly from LEGO.

Based on the 2011 cover, The Joker Wall Art Comic Cover gives that unhinged expression a three-dimensional treatment, with the eyes and other facial features extending from the surface. The build also incorporates Batarangs, swords, flowers, and little “Ha, ha, ha, ha” details into its deeper layers.

The finished piece measures over 20 inches high, 15 inches wide, and 2 inches deep, and can hang on a wall or stand on a shelf. It’s an adult set, recommended for ages 18 and up, with digital instructions available through the LEGO Builder app.
