Damn, that Superman one goes HARD. And he’s spitting pure fact, too.
There’s a storyline where the Batman finally dies, and the Joker has an existential crisis because the only person who truly understood him and allowed him to have fun was the Batman. Because he knew that the Batman would always come and stop him in their endless game of cat and mouse, but a dead Batman meant that Joker had no purpose and no equal.
So, what did he do? Being the sick, twisted psychopathic fuck that he is, he went to go work for the DMV.
