This iteration of Batman doesn't want this iteration of Joker to stab him in the back while he's dealing with the blood soaked clearly unhinged sociopath he's about to fight because when someone covered in blood and wielding a gun is running around his first instinct is to beat the shit out of them and give them to Gordon.
>>
>>93761364

Why does everyone always blame Batman for the Jokers crimes? Batman isn't the Jokers babysitter he isn't responsible for the Jokers actions. Batman role is catching criminals and handing them over to the police/ legal system.

I remember this was an idea floating around one thread for a batman story where a cop does kill the Joker while he's tied up and defenceless after turned in by Batman. Kind of a reverse 'Sid the Squid' scenario.

Things start out great for him of course. He pleads self-defence on some story about Joker breaking free and his friends in the force back him up. He gets a bit of hero worship for putting the clown away for good. Gordon smells bullshit but can't really blame the guy.

Then shit goes bad. Batman's on his case as is Joker's gang and anybody who wanted to kill the Joker themselves. Top it all off the clown himself survives. etc.
>>
>>93761943
>Top it all off the clown himself survives.

so basically don't kill the Joker because he'll just come back anyway
>>
>>93761364
Batman is a massive pussy
>>
>>93762015
Kinda missing the point there. It's still a cop taking the law into his own hands and killing a batman rogue, followed by all the stuff that happens after. Doesn't just disappear because the killed Joker was a dobbelganger or something.

Why do people even bother being heroes in the DC verse? Being a villain is basically the safest, easiest job in the world since some hero would commit genocide just to make sure you don't get a booboo

Frank has had a really hard life. He's had to endure the kind of personal tragedy that means extreme coping mechanisms. That's why he feels justified in his war on organized crime.
>>
>>93761364
Batman shouldn't have been worried about Joker to begin with, it's not like he can die with the thick ass plot armor he has. The most recent issue is a shining example.

Simple. Batman doesn't kill. He hates guns and he doesn't kill. That's his thing. He's wanted to, he may have tried to (during Hush), but he won't kill Joker and he will protect him if he needs to.

Writers always want to complicate it but a simple childhood trauma turned into an iron clad vow to never take another person's life or use guns should be the most of it. Doesn't everyone have things they will absolutely not do despite logic and pressure to do so?
>>
Seriously though, how would Batman react to some random civilian with a concealed carry license just shooting down the Joker in a clear black and white defensive situation?
>>
>>93761364
Batman stops serial killers for murdering people, that's kind of his thing
>>
>>93764654
I think he understands the law well enough to be able to tell that it was self-defense and he'd be fine with it.
>>
>>93764654

He'd go after that person and bring them in. Nothing more. But knowing comics things would turn to shit and Joker would end up with god powers or something.

It's already been pointed out multiple times by multiple writers that Batman is a god of sorts, a necessity for the universe. Joker has been hinted at being the same but as a force of chaos and evil. Snyder has hinted at it a few times, tying into why Batman doesn't kill Joker because someone worse would come and take his place.

Joker "dies" and then you get Bloom almost destroying the city.

in Batman's opinion, the greatest danger in Gotham is a punk with a gun. and Frank fits that description
>>
>>93764623
On top of that, he's always seemed a firm believer in rehabilitation and opposed to the death penalty. A criminal is either ready to mend their ways or be locked away until then. An insane criminal needs to be committed for treatment.

It's not Batman's fault that the systems for those criminals are shitty with corrupt guards and doctors more interested in making a name for themselves than keeping their charges under control.
>>
>>93761364
Batman understands there is a line. If he crosses it he knows he won't be able to stop and just keep killing criminals more and more until the amount of killing of criminals reaches absurd and unacceptable heights. Here he is looking out for Frank trying to protect Frank from crossing that line and also reaching that fate.

Pft, Frank crossed multiple fucking international borders worth of lines by that point.

If Frank still had a gun to Joker's head and Batman tried to push that noise on Frank, Frank'd just pop Joker and tell Batman to go ahead and take him in to save him the trouble of looking for more criminals to murder. Frank is far more stubborn than Bruce in that sense.

yeah remember Chris Dorner?
Cops 100% killed him deliberately and it wasn't even a question that it would happen. Hell I'm partial to ACAB thought and even I can't muster a meaningful feeling of outrage, considering Dorner fucking murdered the families of cops as well.
The Joker is magnitudes worse, if we go by what he's done in the comics. It is an incredible suspension of disbelief that joker hasn't been killed a million times over.

That's some pretty retarded logic
>>
>>93761668
IIRC there've actually been several issues where cops or other random citizens try to kill the Joker. In every one of them I can remember, Batman intervenes and stops them.

Then the next issue Joker blows up an orphanage or steps on a puppy or some shit.
>>
>>93761364
Batman isn't an idiot. He understands the world he lives in. Joker is a fiend and a menace and it's all Bruce can do to be one step behind him most times. But he understands the world around him. Look at the DC universe. Things die. But they don't stay dead. They come back stronger. And with Batman can't risk that. So he locks him in Blackgate and hopes beyond hell it works because the alternative is losing even more.

That's the only remotely consistent line of thinking I can muster at lease.
>>
>>93765101
You're talking about the average citizen. Obivously they'd be singing praises to the cop for killing the maniac. That's not what I typed:
>Batman's on his case as is Joker's gang and anybody who wanted to kill the Joker themselves.
>>
>>93765135
Both instances you mention are accepted as last resorts, where there's no other option. Even in those situations, it can mess somebody up to take a life. If it weren't then yeah, it means they're going to more readily kill.

Batman is mentally unsound, and might actually go off the deep end if he killed.

There's plenty of people who have come out of shooting situations relatively unaffected outside of the initial stress and adrenaline, saying they're going to go out and kill hundreds of people is ridiculous.

Batman openly targeting the police is the best way for him to get any sort of special status he enjoys revoked. And why the fuck would Joker's gang care about retribution if he's dead? It's all about seizing control of what remains of the organization at that point! Besides, even idiots dumb enough to follow a murdering psychopath know that targeting cops is a real good way to get destroyed by the only legal gang in America.

>>93765314
To some degree, yeah. Nobody likes killing and if they do, that's all kinds of messed up.

besides, you're getting too into this whole "one kill = SLAUGHTER THOUSANDS!" thing you dreamt up. It's a very simple matter of once you make an exception, you're going to keep making it. The old lady isn't going to start actively murdering people but she's going to be less hesitant to shoot up an intruder.

Batman can't kill for that reason. It wouldn't stop with the Joker and Gordon could never trust him again because of that.

There was a great series of issues in Injustice where it explores an alternate version of events where Batman kills the Joker. He surrenders himself, serves time in prison, is released, never kills again, and ends up banging Wonder Woman.

That was a good timeline.

You forget how Batman handles the 'innocent' types. No assault, no proof that he was there. Just some questions and a reminder that he's watching them.

And why the fuck would Joker's gang care about retribution if he's dead?
Harley. Need I say more?

>>93765519
Going from
>I have to kill this borderline genocidal maniac because if I don't he'll kill tens of thousands more like he's already done hundreds of times in the past

Is a pretty fucking massive leap, if Batman was that mentally unstable he already would have killed half of Gotham.

>>93765549
Any timeline where Batman bangs Wonder Woman is a good timeline.
>>
>>93765564
See, you don't even get the concept. It's a rule that can't just be broken "just this once" because one guy is bad enough. Batman's trusted to take criminals to justice, not administer it himself.

In the 1980s, Frank Miller was having a mid-life crisis because of Batman. He realized that he had gotten older than Bruce Wayne was meant to be. So he writes a story where Batman is a worn down extra cynical old ass man

And he pushes the envelope as far as he could. He took this character that he loved in his childhood and made him into Judge Dredd, only without the irony and with a no-kill rule, because if you have him kill people, he's not the same character anymore. People loved it. Between that and other popular grim and gritty comics at the time like Punisher and Wolverine, along with some of the more mature elements seen in stories by Alan Moore and his fellow English invaders... and started applying it to Batman.

But underneath all that greasy modern crime drama grit, Batman is still a guy who is meant to be marketed towards 8-12 year olds. That metamorphosis happened extremely early in the character's career. So there are certain lines they weren't willing to cross. And because they couldn't cross that line, some writers felt they needed to codify the logic Batman uses. Instead of Batman not killing people because that's just now how things play out, Batman is REFUSING to kill, on the same moral high ground you'd expect from a silver age comic.

Which is fine, at first, but they don't show the same kind of restraint with any of his villains. Because they don't have to. No one cares if bad guys do bad things, right? Even if they're bad guys who might be printed on kids underoos. So they get worse and worse. Joker gets a body count in the triple digits. Batman goes from fighting colorful weirdos to a literal serial killer, like Zsasz. He gets put in situations time and time again where a rational person would kill. He ends up looking crazy.

All because Frank Miller was feeling old, so he took a childhood favorite and decided to make him cool and edgy
>>
You just don't kill other hero's villains ,man . it's like an unwritten rule or something.

Frank's goal is Joker, not Batman. If Joker was knocked out or restrained on the scene, Frank would try to shoot him during the fight and ultimately win. So Batman makes a compromise to get the target off the scene.
>>
because then batman would remain unemployed and trust me you dont want that.
>>
>>93761364
No really, why not just let Frank kill the Joker
>M-muh no kill rule
Exactly, Batman isn't killing the Joker, someone else is, Batman is just kinda not doing anything to stop it, and legally speaking you have absolutely no obligation to stop a murder if you're an un-involved party, only to report it.

Batman doesn't kill the Joker because if he kills one of his villains then he would have to kill all of them otherwise the rest would think he was playing favorites.

That's what killing a character just to satisfy your moralfaggotry boner when you know they will definitely come back gives you.

I've been thinking about this a lot recently... what if Batman's no kill rule came from a religious mindset?
I don't really remember seeing him as a faithful believer, has that ever been shown in a comic?
IMO this would be a better justification for him not killing than the usual SLIPPERY SLOPE!
>>
>>93767125
So he'd rather kill one of his sons than the Joker? The man who originally murdered the boy in a torturous fashion?
Its not like he's even in a hurry to try and staunch the bleeding on that page
>>
>>93766948
Except when they are victim's of the Joker.

And defending people isn't his job, running a company is his job. He's a wackjob vigilante in a stupid bat costume.

>>93766070
He can't be everywhere. No speedster in Gotham.
>>
>>93766948
by defending him he just killed a few thousand people. What a hero.

That's where I live. The crime here is really low. You should come.

someone who thinks it makes sense for Batman to have an unbreakable no kill rule. I miss the days where he would kill. At least in self defense.

Who ever came up with the no kill rule should be banned from writing comics.

He had already brutally killed Jason and paralyzed Barbara by this point.

You think Gordon will give a fuck about Batman killing the mass murderer who paralyzed his daughter and blew his wife's brains out? Gordon probably secretly hates Batman for not killing the Joker.

The only reason he doesn't die is he's a DC cashcow. They have to bend over backwards to make stupid excuses for him not being killed.

Murder isn't christian, but killing is.
It'd come down to different philosophical debates but the comic industry is overwhelmingly Jewish, who tend to be averse to writing overtly religious fiction and prefer more progressive works. The majority of super heroes aren't christian, off hand I can only think of Captain America who was written to be a (progressive) good old boy and Nightcrawler who is a shitty christian and sold his soul.

obviously other religions exist but batman was written for America in 1939, when the heavy majority of the nation was some denomination of christian, which practically guarantees that his character be either a christian or started as quietly religious and moving more secular over time.

>Batman would rather slit his own son's throat than let Joker die
I don't know how to feel about this. Was Under the Red Hood considered bad?

Joker probably has a kill count on par with 9/11. He's launched numerous terror attacks on major US cities, repeatedly.

Forget Batman, the GCPD, and the Gotham civilians - Joker and his Gang would be treated on par with ISIS and Al-Qaeda. Jokers Goons would be dumped in Guatmo and Joker himself would have been flat out executed, damn what the ACLU, Batman and every other apologist thought.

Sliced his carotid it looks like.

Pretty much a death sentence.

>Simple. Batman doesn't kill. He hates guns and he doesn't kill. That's his thing.
Okay, but in that situation Batman doesn't have to kill. Frank would do it.

To be fair, most people do try and kill Carnage, or at least permanently cripple him.

What the fuck? Would Batman seriously murder one of his own adopted sons instead of letting him kill his own murderer?

Hot damn that is garbage.

Was he supposed to let Frank kill his husbando? That's crazy.

Winick fixed it in the animated movie by having him throw the batarang into the barrel of the gun as it fired.

Yeah, Conway's Carnage maxi was pretty good. It was no Carnage-Man, but nothing is.

How long was it before Black Talon was back? A week? A day?
