NEED HELP with this Joker pic!!!

[Red Hood]

Hi I'm new to the forum and I think this site is really cool for batman fans. I came across this sketch by patrick gleason and supposably it was in a comic but I can't find any info on it, so I was hoping someone here could help me out.

I was wondering what the story is on this pic and possibly what issue of comic it was in. thanks alot for any help!

Since it's not even inked my guess would be that its a sketch of a variant that didn't get produced.

gleason's sketch, and not an amazingly good one at that. I typically expect better from him

Con sketch.

Well. It's not a con, it's hosted on his site with his signature. I think it was just a sketch and never meant for production. There is a whole section of his site with drawings like that.

Con as in convention.
