##ulish, pained rictus grin. the joker has used venom since his debut ; only he knows the formula, and is shown to be gifted enough to manufacture the toxin from ordinary household chemicals. another version of the venom ( used in " joker's last laugh " ) makes its victims resemble the joker, susceptible to his orders. the villain is immune to venom and most poisons ; in batman # 663 ( 2007 ), morrison writes that being " an avid consumer of his own chemical experiments, the joker's immunity to poison concoctions that might kill another man in an instant has been developed over years of dedicated abuse.

" klavan supports this reading of the film by comparing batman — like bush, klavan argues — " sometimes has to push the boundaries of civil rights to deal with an emergency, certain that he will re @ - @ establish those boundaries when the emergency is past.

benefit himself. the joker possesses abnormal body imagery, reflecting an inversion of order. the trickster is simultaneously subhuman and superhuman, a being that indicates a lack of unity in body and mind. in arkham asylum : a serious house on serious earth, the joker serves as batman's trickster guide through the hero's own psyche, testing him in various ways before ultimately offering to cede his rule of the asylum to batman. rather than the typical anarchist interpretation, others have analysed the character as a marxist ( opposite to batman's capitalist ), arguing that anarchism requires the rejection of all authority in favor

on infinite earths, dc comics retconned the histories of some major characters in an attempt at updating them for contemporary audiences. frank miller retold batman's origin in the storyline " year one " from batman # 404 – 407, which emphasizes a grittier tone in the character. though the earth @ - @ two batman is erased from history, many stories of batman's silver age / earth @ - @ one career ( along with an amount of golden age ones ) remain canonical in the post @ - @ crisis universe, with his origins remaining the same in essence, despite alteration. for example, gotham's

a more negative response, praising the artwork of dave mckean and calling it " brilliant ", but criticized morrison's story as claustrophobic and " has more ponderous psychology than action and, as a result, not enough room to fit any decent action in. " shaw would later add that morrison's work " doesn't stand up to his rivals, " and that " mixing the history of the asylum – famous dumping ground for batman's psychotic foes – with a typical batman adventure is interesting enough, but morrison throws too much at the hero in too small a space. this makes batman's journey through ark
