I have great idea: we put away The Joker and don’t do anything Joker related for 5 years

I’ve had enough, he’s boring

I mean a key part of his character is that he can’t/doesn’t have a backstory or real human emotions. He’s become the Moriarty of batman. Like do y'all remember that one BBC Sherlock episode where like even simple break and enter thieves did it because of Moriarty? It’s a lack of comprehension about why petty crime happens. Joker is in every film, tv show, and video game all the time congratulations, you hit the quota, no more joker for 5 years.  Like, the dc universe is SO RICH. There are so many heroes and villains and planets, so many interesting motivations and the Joker is just “uwu chaos” :), and it’s the same every time. I mean, I personally really love specific marvel characters but like, if you map it out, a lot of marvel characters are taken from dc characters and yet it’s just this one guy with one gimmick. There’s only so much dimension that can ever be had to a character with no motivation, backstory or emotional stakes.
