(My apologies for posting a paragraph and actual words instead of art for once 😔)
It’s hilarious to me that because these batjokes videos literally changed the course of my life, this isn’t an exaggeration.
I was really iffy when it came to comic books, then I read the White Knight because of these videos and my brain chemistry changed. I love comic books now. Same for my interest in roleplay games, i honestly didn’t like them and found them boring, then I played the Batman telltale games because of these videos. I love roleplaying games now.
I started falling in love with comic book art and I had a new drive to draw, and I might want to pursue a career doing comic book art if I’m able.
I know this is all very silly because of what those videos actually are but my relationship with art, books, characters, video games and media overall changed 3 years ago.
My tumblr account is my love letter to batjokes media and to the community that came from it. Especially to ZalyBrainlessGenius on YouTube and the funny videos that they posted.
(ITS SO HARD TO TAKE MYSELF SERIOUSLY WHEN TYPING WHILE LOOKING AT THE THUMBNAILS)
Ofc this is all super duper cheesy and everything but thank you guys for providing me with one of the best communities I’ve ever been in, and the support I’ve been given, it’s meant a lot.
I hope you have an awesome day/night and and thanks for reading all of this.
Alright. I’ve been putting this off for a while, but I haven’t posted anything and I might as well get his done while I’m still in the creative mood, ya’ know??
These are all a matter of personal opinion. You may not get what I’m thinking of, that’s cool.
I’ll be explaining these as different versions of the relationship, and the associations I make when listening.
You’ll see, and I hope you enjoy it!
Koda - Touch
“..You make me whole again...“
Kind of a quieter song, suiting a quieter Joker. Kind of vague, but it was the first song I had originally added.

Her’s - Cool with you
The whole entire vibe of this song is definitely Joker’s.
Even the colours of the album art.
“..We don’t have to know, anyone at all..”
In J’s eyes, they only need each other. No one else matters, or even exists.
This reminds me of Joker smoking cigarettes, strangely enough.

Michl - Kill our way to heaven
“..We would say anything just to hear what we want, right or wrong
Then we lie to be forgiven
We would sell anything just to buy who we're not, any cost
Oh, we kill our way to heaven.. “
More J for you. Sort of a sad vibe.
In my mind’s eye, Joker’s having a sort of inward struggle??
Uh, like he wants the world for his bat, but he knows what he is, and what he’s done. But denial’s a fun thing. These descriptions are doing nothing to get the thoughts out of my head, but if you squint as you listen to the song, maybe you’ll understand.

Sakima - I used to have an en suite
Smol nsfw warning on the lyrics, maybe listen with headphone if there are people nearby to judge you.
Okay, so first the artist had explained the line “Follow the white rabbit, till the fucking is savage” as follows:
“Here i’m saying in so many words: get lost with me and see where this thing can really go.. “
I know a certain clown who tries to convince his bat to do that exact thing.
The whole song is based around the person waiting around on a lover.
I imagine Joker would be skulking about when his bat doesn’t contact him.

Hey Violet - Like lovers do
“..Lipstick on your neck, brands like a tattoo, ‘cuz that’s just how lovers do..”
Yet another one of Joker’s songs. This one is sort of how [I think] Joker imagines his relationship with Bruce. Meet, sex, sex, sex, marriage, boredom, bruce’s eventual ‘death’.
This is the clown Prince of Crime we know and love, more his style.

Mr Kitty - Destroy me
“..I need you to hurt me, I need you to fight me
I need you to kill me, I need you to destroy me.. “
What more is there to say? We all know that Joker needs Batsy. They both know they’ll end each other.
Also, neon signs, rainy night anyone? Is it just me getting those vibes?

AJR - Turning out
“Am I ready for love? Or maybe just a best friend, should there be a difference? Do you have instructions? Maybe I’m stuck on what I see on TV, I grew up on disney, but this don’t feel like disney..”
THIS IS JOHN DOE’S SONG. END OF STORY.
Juce ftw

I DON’T KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME - Mr. Sinister.
“What will it take? What else should I do? How far must I go to prove that I love you...?”
I was actually imagining an animation I would make some day.
Joker is entirely focused on Bruce, it seems. It paints Bruce as a.. human, and J as the boogeyman.

Moncrieff x Judge - Serial Killer
Bruce’s point of view. Remember me saying denial is a fun thing?
He knows Joker kills, but who caares, right??
“..But I’m addicted, the taste of your blood red lipstick..”
// https://youtu.be/tj47_1l2woE
Alright, That about wraps this up!I Spent like an hour on this.
Let me know if you enjoyed this. If you agree with my choices feel free to say so!!
Does anyone else think Joker’s fighting style would change after he and Bats hooked up the first time? Like, as soon as they’re in an established relationship.
I could see Joker becoming much more touchy-feely, perhaps developing almost a wrestling type style. [In my headcanons, Joker’s a bit taller than Bats]
He would use his height, and long limbs to his advantage..
Thoughts?
