he's not dead, he's been captured by the court of owls. redhood, batgirl, nightwing, and robin think he is, but batman is fighting his way out of the court of owls.
honestly it's a good series and if they stick to the comics it will be a good game. damn fighting mr. bloom though? lol that will be awesome.
the joker cut off his face in this series too. it's a dark series and honestly i hope they don't hold back and show it all in game.
The thing is, there are always going to be more criminals. Always.
It doesn't matter if you put them up against Batman or the Punisher; anyone willing to commit to a life of crime is going to accept the risk that they might die or end up in jail while they're in the life so long as there's a chance that they might profit off their actions.
The War on Crime will rage on no matter what you do with them.
The difference is, not every criminal is the Joker. Some lower-level thugs can be rehabilitated and very well might be. We just don't get to see it often because it's not a part of the narrative in the stories. Some people really do just need a second chance to straighten out their lives, which they can't do if they're not living anymore.
The super villains are a different story. They're important to the narrative and won't be rehabilitated or killed off... unless they are, but it'll be undone at some point eventually.
Also, Batman doesn't kill because he's some goody-two-shoes whose moral code won't permit it under any circumstances.
That's Superman (when written well).
Batman doesn't kill because, if he ever did, he'd never be able to stop himself from killing all of his enemies. He doesn't have the kind of self-restraint to tell himself, "okay, these guys deserve to die, but these guys don't." For him, it's all or nothing.
As HerculeHolmes said in their comment It's not to do with some moral code not allowing him to kill and it being too hard to cross that line it's since it would in fact be too easy for him. Batman is always teetering on the edge and if he allowed himself to even kill just that one time he would never know how to come back from that place.
From then on there would almost nothing at all that would actually separate him from all the other villains in Gotham who all have their own individual justifications for why one of their enemies must die.
Even for example someone like Mr Freeze who just wants to save and protect Nora at all costs, they all have their reasoning and in their mind they don't see themselves as some sort of 'bad guy', well except the Joker that is who is fully aware of Batman's mentality and would give his life to die by the hands of Batman if it meant he could push him over that edge.
This scene from Under The Red Hood goes into it a bit more if your interested:

Way, way, way back Batman used to kill:

https://www.cbr.com/enemies-batman-has-killed/
https://www.cbr.com/every-comic-book-batman-kills-in-order/
And his morality is somewhat twisted, and differs a lot from comic book author too
The real answer as to why Batman stopped killing is summed up very well in this article.
https://www.polygon.com/2019/4/2/18292128/batman-no-killing-rule-zack-snyder
The TLDR is that, around 1940, the editor of DC Comics wanted to change Batman from a vigilante into a full-blown superhero that could exist alongside Superman. They had also introduced Robin shortly beforehand and wanted Batman to be a good role model for his sidekick (and subsequently all young boys who'd identify with Robin). Rather than resent this restriction, Bob Kane and Bill Finger enthusiastically agreed and vowed to never let Batman kill ever again.
This rule was essentially solidified in 1954 with the introduction of the Comics Code Authority, which set up a list of "rules" for comics to follow to try to get the industry to self-regulate and stop states and cities from banning comic books for their depictions of immorality (in the context of the 1950's) and graphic violence.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comics_Code_Authority#1954_Code_criteria
On paper, the CCA's list was... well...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jl0hMfqNQ-g
There were no laws passed by the US congress or any state or local authorities to enforce the Comics Code (and it would have been wildly unconstitutional if they tried; a blatant violation of the first amendment.)
In practice, anyone who didn't adhere to those guidelines would find it next to impossible to get their comics distributed in stores, and creators who chose not to adhere to them would find it very hard to get work at mainstream comic book companies.
Meaning, if DC hadn't voluntarily restricted Batman from killing in 1940, they certainly would have by 1954, no matter how much of a body count he'd have racked up by then.
Voluntary enforcement of the code continued, which some exceptions and alterations to it, until the late 1980's / early 1990's and was abandoned altogether by the end of the early 2000's.
By that time, Batman's no killing rule had become central to him as a character in the stories told over the many, many years and has largely stuck to this day. It's easier for DC to sign off on stories where he does kill, but those are considered deviations from how the character is "supposed to be" portrayed.
Not every villain should die obviously but sometimes it simply makes a lot more sense to kill someone that's too far gone like Joker.
And honestly I don't get why the government doesn't kill those kind of villains either. Even if Batman doesn't it's not like they can't do it themselves once they're in prison.
At least in US law, the government isn't allowed to apply the death penalty to those deemed legally insane.
Being found insane and landing in Arkham is essentially a "get out of execution free" card.
I don't know if DC thought of that when they first designed everything, but it's a neat co-incidence if they didn't.
Why pay taxes to feed and keep people alive in prison if they took someone else's life or badly hurt or crippled someone? i say save the money and just kill the pieces of human trash.
this post will probably get me banned because tech companies are pro-crime and pro cladding criminals.
Now you are asking why didn't anyone kill the joker yet? My ban will show you companies and rich love criminals who target and kill the poor or working class.

this POS killed his foster grandmother stabbing her to death at 9
stab his biological sister in the face multiple times scarring her for life and waited outside of the mental hospital he was put in weeks prior to kill them which he almost did.
for decades this POS has been hurting innocent working class people and guess what? the law and the companies keep defending his actions and letting out to do it more and more and more... who knows any one of us could be his next victim when coming home from work.
like i said i am for abolishing prisons, but only if we kill these POS right after their trials in a gas chamber. no need to waste a bullet on these POS.
i read in the news all the time some democrat like kamala harris donated millions to let out violent criminals who hurt people and other big companies like steam have done the same for justice reform only to find out later these same criminals killed or hurt someone else.
who has millions to donate and waste on criminal's bail other then rich corpos and companies like tech companies like steam? not working class people that is for sure. It's called class warfare where the rich use insanely violent people or criminals to weed out the normal folk living day by day. follow the money and you will see who is funding your problems. steam donated millions upon millions to violent criminals bail so they can do it again and again to you.
"Gotham doesn't belong to batman... It belong to everyone"- Bruce Wayne. be your own batman and kill or crush the criminals who violate you before they do it again to someone else.
sadly that poor working woman is going to be blind in her right eyes for the act of just coming home from work and making a little salary to support herself. my heart goes out to her.
now do you see corpos or companies or politicians like kama harris donating to fix her eye?
NOPE!
But these companies and corpos like steam and democrats like kamala harris will be donating to let criminals out like this career criminal pos that attacked her free to do it again.
Go to the gym and become your own batman and take our streets back.

I don't believe in 'immediately sending people to the gas chambers' since even if there is a 0.00001% chance that person did not commit the crime and was killed for nothing it would be just as bad as a criminal killing an innocent person.
That's some next level dystopian ♥♥♥♥ you are talking about that places like Nazi Germany would have done.
Already the amount of completely innocent people that getting bullied by police into signing confessions for crimes they didn't commit is remarkably high. Many have even served 20yr+ plus sentences once 'new' evidence finally emerged that determined the person was innocent all along.
But I guess in your Utopian view of the world moving forward there shouldn't even be courts in place since why bother, who's going to be judge jury and executionar? The Police? Judge Dread? Robocop? You and the town mob?
These crimes are caught on camera's now. all that police corrupt ♥♥♥♥ happens in other countries too and at a much more higher rate then the US.
if criminal beats someone for any reason or kills someone for any reason and they are the one who committed that crime? i say take away their life. what you want is letting criminals attack and kill innocent people and being let out.
i don't hurt or kill anyone, i am nice to everyone and I help out in my community.
criminals do not deserve to live. petty crimes we can fix that, but murders should receive death automatically, or criminals who beat women like this women should also receive death.

these scum should never get away with this ♥♥♥♥ and deserve death.
people like you who justify these criminals acts who hurt people is the problem with society. you sound criminal to me.
i want people to work and live in peace. my heart goes out to the victims and their families, but you sir your hearts seems to go out to criminals. you need jesus or seek out some sort of proper morals. your moral compass is broken and evil.
i think people should start looking into what you are doing with your life. it doesn't seem right at all.
the nazis killed people because of ethic reasons that is totally different then killing criminals. comparing killing criminals to nazis killing white Jews and other ethic minorities down plays the holocaust and you should be ashamed of yourself. they aren't even remotely the same.
gofundme and democrats and tech companies, corpos donate to letting violent criminals out on bail in the millions if not billions and not one of these companies, democrats and corpos tech companies like steam don't donate to help victims of these violent acts and that needs to stop one way or another.
i don't see one of these democrats companies and corpos like steam or activsion donate to fix this poor woman's eye who is now blinded in her right eye for life.
i wish these democrats and companies, corpo tech companies donated the same to help the victims of the people they bail out, but as you can see they don't. I would be in shock if steam or any of the democrats or corpos donated to help this woman.
we all know they wont and will continue to bail out violent criminals so they can kill and hurt us working good people just trying live our lives.
so ask me again why the joker is still live? look at the sick world we live in and the rich and wealthy people using their riches to hurt and kill innocent people like us with their bail reform BS.
you seriously asking me about justice? if it is so easy to ban people online then it should be just as easy banning bad people from life.
companies ban and literally take away all the stuff people bought from that company that was connect to that account, but these companies don't have a trial for people who they ban .no refund for the stuff these company stole from the accounts they banned. that needs some sort of reform because what companies do today is criminal and theft. that some higher power didn't like what you say or believe and then taking away your car, house and your property. so these companies who ban people are stealing all the stuff people bought in the hundreds or thousands connected to those accounts to who ever they want.
If it is so easy to do that then why not ban violent criminals from life in a gas chamber? criminals showed they don't value anyone else's life. why should anyone value theirs?
let's do the same with criminals. it's not killing criminals in gas chambers. it's banning criminals from life in gas chambers.
the same way companies ban people in the last few decades i say let's ban criminals from life. there is no difference from banning someone online and banning someone from rl it's literally the same thing these days with things like cancel culture.
now if you'll excuse me i have to workout for the next 5 hours.

love you all my brothers and sisters.
"Gotham doesn't belong to batman... It belong to everyone"- Bruce Wayne. be your own batman and kill or crush the criminals who violate you before they do it again to someone else.
Also the Nazi's didn't just round up Jewish people there were also slavic, gay, disabled, lower class, political dissidents and yes even alleged criminals rounded up together and taken away since they had dehumanised them all and were in their words trying to 'cleanse their country' to create a 'stronger' Germany. The SS would march in the street and take anyone they pleased, even disabled and homeless people.
It was obviously completely f****d up but my point was if you are ok for a criminal to get thrown in a literal gas chamber over an accusation of a crime where they are not even afforded a fair trial of any kind who would be next to join them? And what if they were innocent? You cannot tell me that you can be 100% sure on every single possible case even with video footage there are numerous events where an innocent person was convicted.
Your utopia sets a very dangerous precedent and one that i'd only imagine in somewhere like North Korea right now. I certainly wouldn't want to live in that world.
If you don't commit crimes and don't hurt anyone why do you care about criminals or what happens to them?
Unlike the 1930's these criminals are in 4k hd and we see their crimes of violence in 4k in 2022.
If the criminal who beat or killed an innocent just going to work and living their lives and it's captured in 4k? ban the violator from life in the gas chambers.
in my post you responded to first i said after they are found guilty we walk them behind the court house and ban them from life in the gas chamber. I never said to kill criminals without a trial. you did this whole time.
>this is from the first post you responded to me from. "like i said i am for abolishing prisons, but only if we kill these POS right after their trials in a gas chamber. no need to waste a bullet on these POS."
you keep saying you want to kill criminals without a trial I never said that. smh...
why you gas lighting me? what is your agenda? you are the one who is making up ♥♥♥♥ I never said so you can protect criminals. what's up with that bruh?
you are making excuses for criminals who hurt people and you probably are a criminal who violates people or why else would you be defending scum?
Bah... you derned liberals and your "court houses" and your "due process."
In my day, we didn't need things like "evidence" to "convict" people. We could tell if they were guilty just by lookin' at 'em.
And we didn't waste our time with your fancy "jails" neither! We just put 'em on a boat and sent 'em off to sea. The King's Navy's what really straightened 'em out!
Put 'em t' work scrubbin' the deck on a good sloop fer a year 'a hard work and see if'n they never do nuthin' never 'gain!
you're wasting too much time on these scum... you save the bullet and use zzzz gas.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAIMoRuzps4 you need the gas to end them fast!
I mean, why does no one ask why Gotham does not employ the death penalty? Why are they always so eager to demand Batman murder people & blame him when he does not?
For that matter; a cop could put a bullet in the Joker when he's behind bars. Why is that not the cop's faults?
Why do they get a pass but Batman is supposed to kill?
