In this 1:4 statue, The Batman Who Laughs crouches atop the tomb of Bruce Wayne, a metaphorical representation of the death of his past moral code and the rules that once bind him, now unshackled. Hailing from the Dark Multiverse, The Batman Who Laughs is the evil counterpart of Batman, a jokerized version of Batman who killed The Joker in his multiverse.Ī deadly combination of Bruce Wayne’s tactical intellect, The Joker’s amorality and thirst for chaos, The Batman Who Laughs is Batman’s worst nightmare, a version of himself who has lost all moral code and ethics, unrestrained in his madness.

Upon revealing to them the reasons for this training, though, his mind snaps, and with The Joker's toxins now dominant, he fatally ambushes his four most trusted allies.
