In The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing 4, Joker makes a popular fan theory about Robin's costume comic canon, suggesting the Boy Wonder's colorful outfit is secretly Batman's way of making sure any gunmen target his sidekick first.
Warning: SPOILERS for The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing #4Fans of Batman have long joked about the character's relationship with Robin, pointing out the apparent disconnect between the hero who strategically uses the shadows and his lighter, brighter sidekick. Now, one such remark exists within the DC universe itself, canonized by none other than its resident Joker.
Matthew Rosenberg and Carmine Di Giandomenico's The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing #4 showcases The Joker - or, at least, one version of him - once again on the run from the authorities and Jason Todd's Red Hood. While hiding out in a hospital, Joker comes across a room of child patients, telling them jokes for their and his own amusement.
Does Robin's Costume Design Justify Using Them As a Moving Target? In the hospital, Joker immortalizes the common Batman and Robin joke within the DC universe itself, critiquing Bruce Wayne's willingness to dress his sidekick in bright colors as many fans have done themselves. Of course, established reasons for the Boy Wonder's vivid costume exist in DC lore.
The simplest explanation for Robin's colors is that the bright costume and lighter sidekick just didn't seem heavily out of place for Batman during the Golden Age of Comics. In the character's modern, darker age? The Clown Prince's - and audiences' - joke seems much harder to argue with.
