Althoughseveral live-action Batmen have also killed without remorse, Affleck’s Batman is particularly violent in his crime-fighting methods.

Ben Affleck’s Batman goes as far as branding criminals with his symbol.

Batman also mentions that Harley died in his arms, like Robin did.

Zack Snyder’s DCEU projects draw inspiration from theInjusticeuniverse, where Superman kills the Joker.

Despite these sources of inspiration, the remarkably dark Snyderverse lets the Joker survive the apocalypse unpunished.

Nevertheless, Batman manages to land a blow on the Joker by killing Harley Quinn.

Although the Joker won’t admit it, Harley’s death probably affects him.
