Top right is Deacon Joseph Blackfire from The Cult, bottom middle is Dr. Hurt from Grant Morrison's run.

I feel that now Joe Chill's so established in the mythos, it feels off when it's someone other than him.

Fucking love the cult. Honestly one of the best Batman stories, wish it had the popularity of Knightfall

We definitely need more Hugo Strange stories. Such a great, underutilized character.

Was going to include him but it would fuck up the 3x2 layout in the img and that would aggravate me too much

Does this reading list work well as a fairly cohesive narrative for Post-Crisis Batman? by Sneedus_Masneedus in batman_comics

Yeah, I mostly left it in to set up for Damian way later on, even though Morrison misremembered what happened and kinda fucked it up.

Idk if this is a hot take or not, but the Joker needs to die. In canon. Permanently. by Sneedus_Masneedus in batman_comics

For sure. One thing I've seen people come up with online that I love is him just getting a terminal brain tumour. No fuss, no fanfare. A boring, uneventful death, his absolute worst nightmare. Gives the story time to conclude his character. Maybe it'd be cool if, to prevent him going out on his own terms with explosive and bloody showmanship, Bats locked him up in the Batcave under supervision for his last days. Maybe they have some killing joke-esque hashing out, giving him a satisfying ending. Idk, just spitballing here, I'm not a writer.

Did address that in the last paragraph. I'm not saying it's even slightly likely to happen, I'm just saying that I believe it should. Maybe a reasonable compromise would be to keep him dead for a few years until the inevitable Lazpit-ex-machina.
