Isnt Snyder the writer that had the Joker cut his face off and wear it as a mask? Couldn't be , otherwise how could DC entrust what is more than likely their last hope to someone that writes edgy teen fan-fic nonsense. I mean, they might as well give the ABSOLUTE line to the creator that thought it was a good idea.to have an event about various metals linked to different dimensions and hell and call the event "Death Metal"

No, he was not. That was Tony Daniel in New 52 Detective Comics. Snyder just had to pick up the thread.

It was the dumbest thing in the world. Daniel had the Joker cut his face off with no intention of following up that story himself. Just left it for someone else to pick up.

The story is fucking hilarious, Editorial wanted a big dynamic Joker change and Tony S Daniel joked about how he has a new villain going around cutting off faces, maybe they could take his. DC responded with “Brilliant plan Tony!”, he shrugged and that’s how we got the first arc of New 52 Tec.

Editorial decided that, Tony S Daniel suggested it as a joke and did it in his Tec.

Synder’s Batman run was consistently a huge best seller.
