Batman 89's Wayne Murders Made Joker's Co-Creator Reconsider His Origins

Directed by Tim Burton, Batman 1989 redefined comic book movies onscreen, showing they can be dark and serious stories that weren’t just for children. However, the decision to have Jack Nicholson’s Joker murder Bruce Wayne’s parents was an unusual departure from the comics, even if the character’s co-creator was onboard with the decision.
