5 Times The Joker Has Saved Batman's Life

[@CoolGuy-te1pt]

My favorite portrayal of their “relationship” is where the Joker actually doesn’t want to kill Batman, but actually wants to push Batman to the point where he’ll break his code and kill him. This is my favorite because it’s just so interesting to think about how the Joker considers being murdered by Batman is winning.

[@commentlurker3874]

and batman dying with his code intach is a lose for him

[@messiah1915]

Well there is *that* batman. "Ha, Ha, Ha"

[@DaMoniable]

@@messiah1915 If youre making a cheeky poke at the Batman Who Laughs, i do agree xD I think if the 'non darkmetal universe' joker knew about the batman who laughs, you'd see a very similar scene as the one in Arkham Knight.

[@DaMoniable]

This is actually the very reason why i enjoyed the hulk joker fight at the end of arkham asylum. People always say that Joker wouldnt do it, but i personally think that Joker was banking on Batman giving up the antidote instead of using it on himself. This is even further played on at the end of arkham city's "I would have given you the antidote." and also likely why jokers death weighed so heavily on batman. Because it all stimmed back to the one singular moment where he didnt give joker the antidote in asylum.

[@aeroplane53]

Making batman kill is winning

[@notyourstationtrainwreckgo2317]

I remember a comic where Joker tells Batman that he never wants either of them to win (aka die/give up) because then the game is over. In most Batman/Joker versions, the Joker thrives off Batman. Without Batman, he feels he is nothing. Even in The Dark Knight movie, Ledger’s Joker tells Batman, “Kill you? I don’t want to kill you! No, you complete me.” And in the animated series, Sid the Squid kills Batman by accident, which Batman uses to his advantage, and the Joker is both sad and pissed that Sid killed Batman and tries to kill Sid but Batman saves Sid. “it’s complicated” is a good description of their relationship for sure. I love their dynamic and how they are polar opposites. They are probably best hero/villain pair ever IMO

I'm pretty sure The Joker sees his time with Batman as nothing but a game, one he doesn't want to ever end. It always seems that every time he "tries" to kill Batman, it almost seems like he knows Batman will get out of it, except for that Frank Miller comic, The Dark Knight Returns. As you said, he seems to know Batman better, and has an actually hilarious moment in Harley Quinn: The Animated Series, he has Batman right where he wants him, tied up and beaten with his mask off, what is the first thing Joker does? Does he try kill him? No, he demands to know what is going on with WayneTech's new electric car that he legitimately put a deposit on. I guess he had his priorities in order.

[@maniacalmurderer4123]

To the joker and his twisted mind the relationship they share is important, entertaining even. The idea that he can wake up in Arkham again to plan his next crazy scheme excites the joker, the fact that Batman will always be there to fight him delights the joker. He enjoys the battles much to Batman’s dismay and so on multiple occasions when other villains try to intervene and ruin the Batman he will step in purely because he wants the chaos to continue. Most of the destruction in the city is because of Batman so why would he stop Batman now? He would rather let the joke keep going, just long enough before he can deliver the final punchline.
