>no more
>all the people I've murdered by letting you live

>I never kept count

>I did

>I know and I love you forit

At least DKR Batman had the decency of crippling him

I can't help but think it would be more impactful if Batman actually killed him here, and it would make sending Superman after him more justified.

>even in someone elses comic Frank is always best boy

Well they thought he killed him

does batman think killing in self defense is murder?
Joker was fucking stabbing him in the gut there

Like, what if there was a second cop and he dropped Joker before he got the the tunnel of love (thus saving all those people)
Would batman say the cop is a murderer?

>directly responsible
You don't know what that word means and you don't know shit about ethics. Fuck you.

I generally like the explanation that if he began killing, he wouldn't be able to stop.

Why theres no death penalty for joker?

Because of "he's insane so he needs help" despite the fact that by now he's body count is just ridicolous

Right, and the 1001 ways to stop him would dissolve along with him not immediately letting one of the Robins take over.

It doesn't matter. You could kill the Joker and burn his body scattering the ashes across the world. He'll just be back in a few months.

Oh my god, how has no one ever considered this before? You're really really really really really really smart.

Yeah. this is actually a good question.

Like, why doesn't Batman BANE him?
A cripple is still alive. Just break his spine, Bats. No more life of crime if he's eating through a tube the rest of his life.
What about street lobotomies?
Little pokerino behind the eyeball?

There are lots of way to neutralize someone and leave them alive after.
The fact that the Joker still has all his limbs intact is just plain negligent. At least break his hands

just hire lobo or deathstroke to kill the joker

You know why Batman literally isn't allowed to do any of that shit.

Yeah, and that's why "serious" comics are stupid

>directly
Don't you mean indirectly?

joker probaly has some kind of healing factor
he has been crippeld before.
even gordon shot his kneecaps out once. and a while later joker was just fine and running around again (of course that is more the writers being to blame. because it's easier to just keep using joker. then to come up with a better villian to replace him)

No, the Joker is.

Batman isn't responsible for someone else's actions.

Why is it casuals only blame Batman for this? Why is he somehow the only person who could possibly kill the Joker? Why don't you blame the people of New Jersey for not campaigning to get this guy the death penalty? Why don't you blame the judges and juries who let him get off with an insanity plea? Why don't you blame the psychologists who continue to falsely tell people that he's not in control of his actions? Why don't you blame Arkham Asylum's security for failing to keep him contained?

It seems more like the only person in this entire equation who's actually doing his job is Batman, who successfully turns in the Joker while also defending his right as an American citizen to a fair trial. Batman offers Joker up on a silver platter to the legal system and the people of Gotham and the great state of New Jersey, they drop the ball on all of their duties and responsibilities, and somehow this is Batman's fault?

Comic book civilians are retarded.

Which would revert because people don't like Bruce out of the cowl forever. Maybe for a little while like in Morrison's run, but not permanently.
Face it, fans complain about change but not enough of them want it to actually stick.

Also Bruce being crazy enough to unravel at murder and go on a rampage is legit. The man planned ways to take out every person he knows, ways that could easily be tweaked to be fatal. He also created Brother Eye, used Venom in the past, and has shown that at times that one of only things keeping him from murdering every one of his rogues is Jim would hunt his ass down with or without the league's help. He has even tempted his friends to kill and offered to look the other way.

Batman Joker is an agent of Nyarlathotep, just like the Jokers in pic related.

...

That's not funny

Why doesn't DC make an "Ultimates" line with actual non-status quo wanking continuity?
Like, have Batman kill the Joker and go off the deep end.
Do Earth-2 again but don't puss out about it

Didn't this happen during Morrison's run or did someone else fuck him up? Was it Damian or Harley or something?

One of the three ghosts of batman shot him in the head and he survived

Because there's no point in that.

If you don't want superhero genre conventions, don't read superhero comics.

You can't have a shared ongoing universe where anything is allowed to happen, or else you end up with the shitheap the Ultimate line became.

If you're gonna do a "realistic" superhero story, it has to have a direction and an ending in mind. All the status quo rules and storytelling conventions people bitch about, such as the Joker not being able to die, were created BECAUSE you need rules in a shared universe with no ending.

This was literally the entire point of Watchmen.

>Another post by an entitled reader who feels threatened when fictional characters don't make the same moral decisions they would.

Capeshit may not be for you OP, try reading Ellis, Ennis & Millar...thats for smart people like yourslef.

Because comic writers can't into the McNaghten test and think that anyone can avoid the gas chamber because LOL YOU SO CRAZY

Once his body count got that high, there's not a lawyer in the world who could convince jurors to spare him the death penalty, especially since Joker doesn't actually meet most legal definitions of "insanity". HOWEVER, is the correct answer. Joker has more plot armor than anyone in comic history

>You can't have a shared ongoing universe where anything is allowed to happen, or else you end up with the shitheap the Ultimate line became.
That's not how it breaks down
Ultimate didn't become shit because it allowed for things to happen.
It became shit because it was written like shit.
When it was good, it was good. It really did have a shared universe where things happened.

because then they can't hate on Batman, user

and that's all they want to do

Well lets see how White Knight handles the off the deep end part.

I hate the LOL BATMAN IS CRAZY XD
His so-called insanity is just another item for his utility belt instead of an actual character flaw

>Batman doesn't need to sleep because he's crazy
>Batman can defeat the entire Justice League because he's crazy
>Batman can fight demigods and don't die instantly because he's crazy
>Batman is the best at everything because he's crazy
>Batman can't kill the Joker because he's crazy

It's fucking plot contrivance and the fanboys take it because it sounds edgy and "badass".
