When will DC Reveal the Identity of the Joker?

Haven’t you been DYING to know who he is?

I’m conflicted. On the one hand, it WOULD be awesome to know. On the other, once you open that box, it can never be undone. Like when (some of you may get this reference )Kane took off his mask for the first time. The audience saw his face and it couldn’t be undone. He put it back on years later, but the mystery was done. Even when they change continuity down the road, it won’t matter. People still receive cannon from pre and post Crisis, so it will be out there in the multiverse. Maybe we can have our cake and eat it, too. Meaning, maybe Geoff Johns will reveal two of them and leave one a mystery in Three Jokers. But, I’d keep the mystery if hard pressed. It’s part of the mystique of the character that makes him so terrifying🍀

The Joker’s should never be revealed. He’s the unstoppable force, the unknowable terror, the danger right around the corner that you can’t see or prepare for, the irrational fear that many people have that something may go wrong at any moment. Not every evil thing that occurs needs to be understood ‘why’ they are evil. Not every villain needs to be ‘sympathetic’.

The gave wolverine his memories, milked that for all it was worth, and now they just went thru the “hes dead/no wait” storyline and thats the nuclear option of storylines. Some characters, like Mistah J, like wolverine, should just “be”.
