Batman: Arkham Knight - 10 Things We Can't Wait To See

6. How They Handle The Joker's Absence

Of course we're having to dig deeper into the list of Batman villains sheerly because the main antagonist in his mythos is nowhere to be found. Last seen being carried out of the Arkham City prison by the Dark Knight himself after accidentally smashing the antidote to his own poison, we're all but sure we've seen the last of the Mark Hamill-voiced maniac. Rocksteady are staying pretty tight-lipped on the whole thing too, occasionally breaking silence to confirm that he's not in the game, although ardent fans simply refuse to believe them, as after the 'Joker was Clayface' reveal in City, anything's possible. It marks a strange correlation to the Nolan movies, as now both titanically huge franchises are going into their third and final acts without one of the elements that made the second so appealing. Only time will tell if the Clown Prince does make another appearance, but it's up for debate whether or not he should stay dead throughout or not.
