Batman: Why I Laugh

Anguish drives a man to trauma. Trauma drives a man to desperation. Desperation drives a man to revenge. Revenge drives a man to remorse. And remorse drives a man into madness.
A killer is on the loose in Gotham. The calling card? A single playing card. The dead are found with the same scars: their eyelids gauged off, and a smile carved into their skin. Victims have no pattern
A widow
A prisoner
A Gang
An officer
A bat?
As everything escalates, it becomes clear that the enemy is not just a killer, but the walking incarnation of Mania itself, who claims to have been reborn as "the Joker."
This is my personal take on the emergence of the Joker, and his reign of terror on Gotham, based loosely on elements from the comics, (ideally, 'The Killing Joke') Fandom articles/Quora answers, video games, and the 'Gotham' TV series. Most events in this book don't portray whatever may happen in the actual 'canon' (or alternate canons) but more what I believe could happen between the characters portrayed.

The Bat and The Bone (Nico Di Angelo x Batfam)
**All the Characters belong to DC and Rick Riordan except for original characters** What's the most common thing in Gotham? Villains and Vigilantes. What is the second most common thing? Murder. People dropped like flies. Bodies washed up on the shores of Gotham Pier. They were found in alleys, garbage cans, high in trees, splattered on the street. Everywhere. The Gotham City Police Department couldn't keep up, not with all the bank robberies and corruption they had to deal with. And who was better to ask for help than the Greatest Detectives in the world? Oh, and Nico is there too. **This is kinda a one-shot series, but there might be an overarching story across a few chapters.**
Injustice Gods Among Us x Male Reader
A few hours. It only took a few hours for our greatest ally to become our greatest threat. On a normal day like any other, The Joker once again breaks out of Arkham and reeks havoc on the world, only this time he has a new buddy to play with in Superman. The Clown Prince of Crime, along with the help of Scarecrow, combines fear toxin with Kryptonite to drug the Kryptonian into thinking he's fighting Doomsday when in reality it's really Lois Lane, who at the time was carrying the son of her and Superman and a remote detonation device built into Lois' heart that's rigged to blow Metropolis to the ground not to mention killing 8 million people. In a rageful state, Superman flies over to Arkham Asylum en route to Batman and Joker, and when he gets there he kills The Joker and becomes the biggest criminal the world has ever known. After that Superman makes the One Earth Government or 'Regime' to bring peace, whereas Batman and Robin(Y/n L/n) make the Insurgency as a way to combat Superman and make him see that what he's doing is wrong. Along the way death comes to any who oppose Superman with a few well known names like Oliver Queen(Green Arrow) and Dick Grayson(Nightwing) who gets killed by Damian Wayne.

You Never Cease To Amaze Me, Bats
At first, it was a regular night for Bruce as he went out through the night as the dark vigilante, Batman. As time ticked by, the night grew - stranger - beneath the bat signal's light, was a note. From the Joker. Months pass before Batman is seen out on the streets again. But he's different, strange. But most importantly, what is up with his eyes? ----- In this world, Batman doesn't have a Robin. He never has. He sticks to himself; even the Justice League don't see him. No one sees Batman without a mask except Alfred. Batman is darker, already slightly twisted in the head - he's spent his whole life, fighting people like the Joker, people who don't deserve his pity. So he doesn't give then them any. He holds grudges even beyond the memory of others. He hates asking for help. ----- "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."Lengkap![[1] Beware the Batman and the Black Widow [1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/123199939-256-k55026.jpg)
