    An important aspect of the Batman/Joker relationship is that Batman created the Joker. Can someone explain to me how Batman created the Joker in Nolan's movie? Thanks.

    @mister_pimping:I would need to rewatch the movie to tell you exactly. But I know he inspired his joker from Alan Moore's story, the Killing Joke. Read it and you will have big clues.

    @mister_pimping: In Begins Batman thought that the idea of Batman would inspire people to do good, in the case of Joker, that idea backfired and he inspired Joker to become the Joker.. At least, that's the way i see it.

    Actually this movie just debunk that notion.

    It points that Batman doesnt have to create the Joker so they can have a relationship, it points that the relationship itself is what matters.

    Their connection is based on how they reflect each other.
