    At last to see one interesting thread.. at least for me... :)

    Anyway... no matter how good this thread is.... same is bad... because... all around on CV in last month treads are really bad... everyone talking how is something trolling... and no one is understood seriously.... guys thinks, that is and this trolling... like everything else...

    And whats Batman without Joker... @lateralus: say what he is... genuis, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist... and its true, but sure he will not be Batman as we know.... Joker for all this years with confronting batman... he complement him... same for Batman to Joker... Now imagine Batman without Joker for all this years... he will have good story... he will be good character... ( @darthaznable: ) but without enemy like Joker... he sure, will not be the same hero... because... he will then dont have one of the worst and most iconic villain character !

    I'm done... :) And sorry for my english...

    Batman does not like the Joker.

    Batman does not need the Joker. Joker needs Batman.

    Batman Hates the Joker. Joker is obsessed with Batman.

    Batman wishes he never has to deal with the Joker. Joker has dedicated his life to fighting Batman.

    Batman regrets causing the formation of the Joker. Joker feels they are connected because Batman is responsible for who he is.

    Batman feels responsible for every person the Joker kills. Joker enjoys it.

    Without the joker, Batman is still Batman, but he'll be slightly more relieved if he never has to deal with Joker ever again. Joker cannot live without Batman.

    @valdemocnij Well, some versions of Batman would get on just fine without the crazy clown. Others would not cope so well.

    Yes there is... It's called Beware The Batman.

    I think that show was awesome despite all the hate it got. Shame it got cancelled.

    I feel like bane would take over the the role. Or mister freeze. Or maybe even Hugo walks back into his role. Didn't like how popular the joker got and still didn't get a definite origin story

    Ra's is just as important as Joker as a nemesis of Batman.

    I always found that Joker conflicted too much with the Riddler and Two-Face.

    Much prefer Riddler to Joker. Whilst both are flamboyant and antagonistic, Nigma is far more cerebral and the character has more depth. Same with Dent, both he and Joker kill arbitrarily but Two-Face is more layered as a villain.

    Beware the Bat, the new animated series, is quite good and I think the creators said they wouldn't be introducing the Joker.

    This is what I was thinking, I haven't really missed the Joker that much as he's been in practically every pre-52 major story arc so I think we can do without him for a bit.
