As much as I need my rest-breaks from Joker stories and wouldn't mind if they disappeared for a decade or so, the reality is that (in general) writers aren't going to stop writing them and readers aren't going to stop reading them. So these things are going to remain relevant. And a lack of Clownhunters/etc. doesn't do holistic narrative justice to that reality.

Yeah. Red Hood philosophy was to spite Batman because of what he saw as Batman's failure. Clownhunter's philosophy exists no matter what Batman did, he's just trying to fill a gap he sees. Batman focuses on fighting the crime bosses. But Clownhunter wants to take out everyone involved.

True, which I don't mind if they evolve Batman or Gotham with it. As Bao said, GCPD remains corrupt, the mayor remains corrupt, Arkham remains a revolving door, while Batman remains idealistic. So he decided to put his trust in a system that still isn't fixed isn't doing anything. Batman can keep his idealism, but the story of Gotham needs to be better if he still wants to be viewed as the hero instead of an outdated, stubborn conservative.
Less reviving door Arkham, fewer Gothampocalyse, and cool it on the mutilation and criminally insane a bit. A Gotham story doesn't have to be a horror story. A more mundane case can be made exciting if they're a good detective story.

I thought he would kill Joker during Joker War that way it would be Batmans first time seeing the kid hopefully he doesnt become a Robin and only gets involved when there are clowns. Plus I know he will go after Harley Quinn in the future I wonder how that will go cause its seems shes pretty much forgiven during her time with Joker by Batman and they gotten close due to this whole Joker war and I dont really see her as a villain anymore.But I wonder if Harley help killed his parents with Joker back in her day that would be cool is true. So I wonder how Batman is going to deal with that.

"My heart half-breaks at how easy it is to lie to him. It breaks all the way when he believes me without question." Felicia Hardy
I would think his current target is Henchmaster or whatever the guy from War Zone was called. He says he wants to kill Joker's minions who just took off their masks and walked away when things went south, I assume he will want Henchmasters head for training the minions.
"It's fun and it's cool, so that's all that matters. It's what comics are for, Duh."
Words to live by.
I like him and look forward to what he does next. I wanna see him team up with Anarky.
Pity Marvel has the name Foolkiller...it would have fit this character much better.
