Why doesn't the average American citizen just blows the Joker's head off?
Somehow this motherfucker gets sent to a minimum security Asylum for crazies eery time he is cathed by Batman even if he has killed thousands and is an ISIS tier level genocidal maniac.
That level of incompetence in the judiciary system would make the average citizen's blood boil with rage, the people would take the justice in their own hands and just fucking lynch those stupid villains and the people in power allowing this kind of injustice with them if these funny books had any coherence.
This capeshit garbage makes no fucking sense it's even more retarded than anime.
>People that read capeshit are smart enough to not inject realism in such an absurd genre
Apparently not if these retarded "Why doesn't Batman/Superman/Spider-Man/etc kill" threads pop up constantly.
Matthew Taylor
He'll just come back.
Tyler Thomas
Why doesn't the average citizen just rape the joker?
Sebastian Barnes
Half of comic readers are autistic. They don't enjoy reading them, they just feel some compulsion to read them. Modern psychology is baffled by this phenomenon. Hopefully one day people can enjoy comic book discussions without these autists, but I wouldn't count on it any time soon.
Isaac Thompson
>Killing him wouldn't stop him at all. Just keep killing him until they stop showing up. All Riddlers, all The Penguins, all Poison Ivys, all Jokers, just have a Gotham-wide kill-on-sight rule. Super Hero Wild West.
You can't rape the willing.
Hunter Turner
>Also, there are multiple jokers.
I still can't believe this bullshit.
Have they followed up on this yet in the comics?
Noah Brooks
Joker's been killed off in the Injustice Universe and Kingdom Come, but his death tends to only happen when the universe is about to get fucked up in some other way. Like he's a cosmic keystone keeping all stupider forms of evil at bay
Thomas Allen
That Batman line of reasoning is right about it: If Joker is killed then Gotham (the writers) will just create someone worse.
Owen Fisher
I think the idea is since the Joker is considered the worst of the worst, if the heroes cross the line and kill him they're going to move on to killing the lesser threats and it's downhill from there.
Cameron Parker
Ignoring the multiple jokers thing They've established in canon that the joker's mind literally evolves every ten years to better fit the era So there's clearly some mystic shit going on that normal men can't take on easily
Isaiah Gonzalez
If you're gonna sit here and tell me Gotham has strict gun laws then you must not pay attention to the hundreds of assault level weapons in gotham
Dominic Bailey
Because they know trying to kill him is useless when his batboyfriend is around
Robert Davis
Average joe American tried. Batman stopped him.
Charlie Collins is the real hero Gotham deserves
Benjamin Bennett
With the level of destruction/mass murder he's pulled off, he would definitely be dead by now. The government would consider him a domestic terrorist, not just some crime boss.
Adrian Foster
Smuggled in.
Parker Lewis
>And Joker will either come back stronger or more will take his place
That feels like a copout.
Daniel Ward
>You can't rape the willing.
We'll see about that
Leo Fisher
When was the last time you saw a legal gun owner in gotham in a batman book?
It turns out that criminals don't follow gun laws. Who would have thought?
Jace Morris
Yes, but it's NYC/Chicago pre-1980.
So guns everywhere.
Levi Davis
Criminals hate and fear the Joker too. Why doesn't one of them take him out?
Sebastian Hill
Because Batman stops them?
Aiden Phillips
>worlds greatest detective >can't tell his archenemy is actually 3 completely different looking people.
Aaron Rogers
Sauce on this image? Google just tells me it's high impact sexual violence.
Bentley Sullivan
Well, it's worked before
Jack Thompson
Because while everyone wants to kill him, nobody wants to be the poor sap who ALMOST killed him.
Jeremiah Mitchell
Maybe Batman is autistic and just can't recognise faces or the white lenses in the cowl are just that bad.
Even Dick was able to figure out Sexton was the Joker in disguise as a detective during his Batman run.
Ian Martin
Killing the Joker only rewards you with Zombie Joker, Ghost Joker or Cyborg Joker. Since in a cape universe there is no ending, sooner or later everyone is gonna die and come back one way or another
Cameron Clark
This. At best we get a "Joker in Hell" arc or two before he comes back with writers making him even more pointlessly edgy to make up for lost time.
Dylan Cruz
>Batman kills the Joker >batfamily complains about it >JL complains because they are not murderers, except when they are >Joker goes to Hell >next event starts with Joker taking control of Hell and coming back to Earth guiding hell's armies >everyone blames Batman because he is the one that killed him
Wyatt Richardson
To sell comics is the only reason.
Always thought it'd be funny though to see how Batman would react to some random beat cop shooting the Joker in the head. He'd probably have some emotional break down while the cop is seen as a hero.
Robert Ramirez
I feel like if someone did, Batman would hate them, but Gotham will treat him like Hawkeye after he killed the Hulk.
Wyatt Wood
I think he would beat the cop into a coma.
Liam White
The Joker had a gun in his hand and the officer feared for his life.
Gun turned out to be a toy but the shooting was still deemed justified.
I bet Batman would still harass the cop though what a dick.
Elijah Rodriguez
Did he step to Magog? I honestly don't remember.
Brody Bell
Yeah, just kill off one of the most entertaining villains ever created with some boring realistic gun shot death.
That that sounds greeeeat.
Owen Powell
Remember when it seemed like that was going to happen in Joker's favor.
Colton Fisher
They should never have made the Joker a killer in the first place.
That goes for all cape villains who aren't Frankable.
Lucas Sanders
And the highest murders due to guns.
Christopher Williams
>They should never have made the Joker a killer in the first place. So his very first appearance?
Zachary Taylor
Because the "average American citizen" in comic land, unlike real life, doesn't seem to be packing heat all the time. Or at all, really.
William Price
Pretty sure he means the more horror movie monster killer that's been plaguing the character since the 80s. Writers constantly jerking him off as some avatar of chaos has completely ruined the character beyond repair.
