So I'm retarded and have no idea what's going on with the war of jokes and riddles, can someone explain what's happening

The story is a flashback. I think it takes place shortly after Zero Year. Joker is having a personal crisis and Riddler is being an edgelord.
Now they're at war with eachother and Batman is eventually gonna do something fucked up that will have ramifications in the present day.

>Joker decided to kill Batman because it's not funny how he keep losing to him
>Riddler escaped prison and told the joker that they should team up and kill Batman together because he isn't funny anymore
>Joker thought the idea wasn’t funny and shot the Riddler
>Riddler became edgy after he survived the shooting and decided to start a war against the joker to avenge himself
>both started recurring members of the rouge gallery
>Gotham went into a chaos (like always)
>and apparently, Batman did something "very awful" to end this war which will be revealed at the end of this arc

I think what i missed was how the other villians got involved

Is this literally Marvel's Civil War but done with Batman's rogues gallery? Because I can get behind that.
I really hate how out of character/edgey Nigma is being in this arc. About the only good thing to come from it is Kite ManHell yeah....

It was better when Johns did it in Flash (Rogue War)

Superman and Supersons are way worse, they're not bad, they're just bland

And this is pure edge that's been told a hundred times. What's your point? I'd take comfy over this any day.

Gaiman wrote Riddler out of character

>pure edge
Its not.
Christ, why the fuck does someone dying = edgy these days. The word has lost all meaning, being edgy is context sensitive.
Someone dying in a detective story is not edgy.
Someone dying in a war is not edgy.
Joker going to 69 Dickson Street to try and get his groove back is not edgy.
Okay, the riddler question mark thing was edgy, I'll give people that.
