How The Joker Makes a New Gotham and a New Batman (#100 Spoilers)
Today Batman #100 sees the Batman go up against the Joker, railing blows against each other, in the Joker War finale of Batman #100. And while Batman may have the edge, even with the Joker wearing his super-shiny suit, does the Joker hit with some truths instead?
Does Gotham hate Batman? I mean, wouldn't you? And is this all about the Joker playing the long game, whether he lives or dies? In the Scott Snyder world, a dead Joker infects Batman and turns Bruce Wayne into the darkest version, creating a Joker with the skills of the Batman. In James Tynion IV's Batman, a dying Joker infects all of Gotham instead, creating The Gotham Who Laughs?
So the Joker has tainted everything. Tainted the shiny suit. Tainted Wayne Enterprises. Tainted Gotham. No one can believe anything or in anything any more. Welcome to 2020, Batman.
And as Bleeding Cool has teased with the #defundbatman hashtag, a 2021 Batman is going to have to be different, not the aloof billionaire living in his mansion, only heading into Gotham to beat up muggers.
The Joker knows what's what. He defunded Batman and, like it or not, has created what Batman has to be in 2021…
