Jokes on You
“One bad day.”
Alan Moore wrote Batman: The Killing Joke in 1988. Brian Bolland drew it. This was the gateway — the book that made comics feel like something that could carry real weight, real darkness, the kind of story you go back to because you didn’t catch everything the first time. It’s not a comfortable read. It’s not meant to be. That’s the point.
Jokes on You is a matte crelly — the finish reads like frosted glass, a soft, particular depth that sits somewhere unexpected. In the shade it’s a bright acid green; hit sunlight and it shifts to a deep, moody purple. The duality feels right for a Joker polish. One bad day, two completely different looks.
(We’re calling the finish “frelly.” Get it? Because frosted and crelly, which is a creme jelly. You know what. We’ll workshop this one.)
Details
Finish: Photochromic matte crelly, a “frelly” if you will (yeah, still not doing it right?)
Shade/Indoor: Bright acid green
UV/Sunlight: Deep moody purple
Opacity: 2–3 coats
Size: 15ml
Formula: 21-free base, vegan, cruelty-free
Warning: Robot Bee Polish is not responsible for the very strong opinions you will develop about Alan Moore as a person (valid, complicated, your mileage may vary), the films made of his work (also complicated if you read the source material), or the itch to track down “Red Son.” Not Alan Moore — but another favorite.
