If Batman is a murderer now how come Joker is still alive?
>>
because plot.
>>
>>67381331
Looks so fucking weird.
>>
He was Robin or some shit like that
>>
>>67381331
He only kills nameless thugs like any good superhero
>>
Because he wouldn't kill Jason Todd
>>
>>67381331
Does the neck bother anyone else?
>>
>>67381331
Isn't Old Batman known for murdering?

Wasn't that a big plot point in Frank Miller's Dark Knight Returns?
>>
>>67381331
Because if Batman kills the Joker, he becomes just as bad, but those mooks don't count.
>>
>>67381791
A Little bit, but it's great defence against man of necksnapping.
>>
>>67381839
Yeah wouldnt want to be like that thug that killed some random kids parents in an alley or anything.
>>
>>67381866
It doesn't count as murder if the victim doesn't have a name.
>>
Harley hasnt been WHITED yet on that secuence so it must be a flashback and maybe batman didnt kill at that time
>>
>>67381331
Because he is a marketable character and by asking that question you start to realize that there is little internal consistency to any of the moralizing done in comic books or their adaptations.

Batman likes his jokes

>>67381885
Keep classy DC fag

Joker is dead. Suicide Squad is a prequel.

BVS is old batman.
>>
>>67381331

Because everyone in Gotham is a dumb shit who won't finish the job while Joker is in his restraints at Arkham or something.

And Batman is a dumb shit for enabling the criminals.

It doesn't make sense at all, really.

>>67381331
isn't that the question of the day
>>
>>67381824
the original batman from the 40s would kill people all the time.
The only reason the no-kill rule was ever established for superheroes was so that they could have recurring villains, it was never a matter of morals.
>>
>>67385824
No, it was the Comics Code, you homo.
>>
>>67385932
That was implemented later actually, and we got comics with the punisher killing a shitload of people under the comics code. I don't have the dates straight at this time but they implemented the no-kill rule relatively early on compared to the comics code specifically so that batman and superman could fight recurring villains instead of generic mobsters or petty criminals all the time.
>>
Why are all the manchildren crying about batman killing a few people? "Oh no, my favourite super hero!" Killing bad guys is actually good, he takes them out of the equation for ever and there is no chance that they will escape prison or police interrogation whatever (high tends to happen a lot at DC).
It's like the butt hurt about the death scene of that assistant in Jurqssic World all over again.
Fucking children, back to place bit please.

>>67381569

>tries to kill superman because he MIGHT go bad

>won't kill this guy that is already killing people
>>
>>67381331
derpman strikes again
>>
>>67384853
Joker is still alive, the "kill him" in the Flash dream sequence refers to him. Chances are he's still alive because he his actually Jason Todd and Batman didn't have the ball to kill his former Robin
