Batman hasn’t been doing well for the last few months. Between alienating himself from the rest of his family, losing access to his network of technology, and slowly losing the battle against his backup personality (Zur-en-Arrh), the Dark Knight is facing one of his darkest hours. Batman #139 (by Chip Zdarsky, Jorge Jimenez, Tomeu Morey, and Clayton Cowles) compounds the situation by reuniting him with the Joker, and it appears that the Clown Prince of Crime is attempting to recreate one of his worst deeds.During the issue, Batman hunted the Joker through an abandoned mansion and found the villain perched atop a makeshift throne comprised of several dolls with flames lit all around him. This is an almost perfect replica of the moment in which the Joker announced to Jim Gordon that he was going mad in Batman: The Killing Joke. In that story, the villain attempted to push the Commissioner into insanity, and it now appears that he wants to do the same to Batman.In Batman: The Killing Joke, the Joker became obsessed with the idea that anyone could lose their mind if they only had “one bad day.” To prove this, he kidnapped Gordon and attempted to break him mentally. The Joker psychologically tortured Gordon, stripping him naked and forcing him to endure horrors that included forcing him to look at pictures of his daughter suffering after she had been grievously wounded by the madman.Gotham War Suggests a Surprisingly Touching Relationship Between Joker and Red Hood
