If Batman dies, Joker taps out.
Warning: Spoilers for DC / RWBY #7!As the DC / RWBY crossover concludes, Batman will finally learn the one way he can stop the Joker – and it's not by killing the Clown Prince of Crime. The seven-issue DC / RWBY series has seen the two universes meld into one, with each DC hero and villain gaining semblances, including Batman gaining a superpower from a Sherlock Holmes movie, and Joker gaining a nightmare-fuel new form.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT DC / RWBY #7 – written by Marguerite Bennett, with art by Soo Lee, color by Marissa Louise, and lettering by Morgan Martinez – sees the conflict between the newly Grimm Batman and a Nuckelavee-Joker comes to a head. Megan Hetrick's main cover art, and Mirka Andolfo's variant cover, can be viewed below.
Joker vs Batman Gets a New Supernatural Upgrade Preview panels for DC / RWBY #7, the final issue of the crossover, feature narration depicting Batman and The Joker's feud in mythological terms. Batman is the prince protecting the city of Gotham, while his adversary the Joker is the beast terrorizing the city.
Batman and Joker Need Each Other to Survive The idea that the Joker would recede if Batman died has been confirmed in different stories throughout DC's history. After Bruce retires his cowl for a decade in The Dark Knight Returns, the absence of Batman is enough to put the Joker in a catatonic state, one he doesn't awaken from until Batman takes to the streets of Gotham once more.
More recently, Batman's death has proven to be an actual nightmare for Joker. The parable in the preview panels above echoes that same sentiment, which in turn relates to the idea that both men need each other to survive, in a sense. Both men are intertwined in each other's life missions. If Batman kills the Joker, then Joker wins, truly giving rise to the fall of Gotham as it proves even Gotham's finest can be broken.
