Why does the joker has green hair?

Bane's character was born and raised in a prison, Pena Dura (hard rocks), as he was to pay for crimes committed by his father. After a series of events that give him not only physical strengths but mental genius, the guards in the prison decided that he would be a good fit to test a new serum called Titan, turning him into a super soldier. The mask he wears distributes the Titan directly into his blood stream. The test almost left him dead because the Titan was injected directly into his brain. What the mask accomplishes is to distribute it evenly so he may survive. The mask is his lifeline--without it he would die.

Who is batmans helpers?

In the comics as well as in the movies Batman has many sidekicks. Some only appear for a short time or only in specific versions of Batman. Some, depending on their popularity, have been kept throughout the story's timeline. Listed below are those who have existed as Batman sidekicks for both short and extended periods of time:

  • Robin (real name Dick Grayson)
  • Nightwing (this is also Robin after he had a fallout with Batman)
  • Batgirl (real name Barbara Gordon)
  • Harley Quinn (real name Dr. Harleen Frances Quinzel)

If batman was Bruce Wayne what was robins name?

That depends actually. Currently there have been 5 mainstream Robins.

The first was Dick Grayson. though he grew up and adopted the name Nightwing. After it was believed that Bruce Wayne was Dead, he became Batman. When Bruce returned he started going around the world and finding people who believes are worthy to become the Batman for their Area. So Dick is now the Batman of Gotham.

The next Robin was Jason Todd. Jason was killed by the Joker years ago, but has recently been revived by being dipped into a lazarous pit. Although those pits do restore life, they also affect you mentally. Jason has been acting evil and has fought against the bat family several times since being brought back to life.

Next is Tim Wayne (formerly Tim Drake) was the 3rd robin. Tim was able to deduce Batman and Robin's identity. After Jason died he came to believe that Batman needs a robin, so set out to prove to batman he should get the role. When Dick became batman he decided that Tim was his equal and should not be his sidekick. Tim felt hurt by this and the fact that no one would believe him when he said that Bruce was still alive. So he left Gotham for a while adopted the name Red Robin to prove Bruce was alive. it nearly cost him his life but he did end up proving it.

The Fourth Robin was Stephanie Brown, Tim's exgirlfriend who previously went by the name Spoiler. When Tim is temporarly forced to resign his role as robin, Stephanie demends that batman train her to be robin. After several months of training she officially takes on the role of robin and patrols with batman, but is fired when she disobeys him on two missions. though she was believed dead for a time, she returns and is the current batgirl.

Finally, the current Robin is Damian Wayne. Damian is the Son of Bruce & Talia al Ghul who drugged him to sleep with him and get herself pregnant. he was raised by his mother and the league of assassins. she had planned to use him against him, but he ended up deciding to stay with him. After Bruce was thought dead Dick asked him to become his robin.

also there was also a robin in the non-canonical graphic novel the dark knight returns named Carrie Kelly. in this world where batman retired from crime fighting. she eventually saves batman and is accepted as robin. in the sequel she goes by the name cat-girl but is still batman's second in command.

So it really depends on which robin you mean. most tv movies/shows/cartoons usually revert to Dick greyson, although Tim drake has also been used several times as well. the short lived tv series birds of prey make mention to both dick, Jason and Tim though the show was canceled before any had a chance to make an appearance.

When did the joker and Harley Quinn start dating?

The Joker and Harley Quinn first met when Harley was working as a psychiatrist in the Arkham Asylum. Harley was warned about the Joker, but she made a session with him anyways. He told her everything she wanted to hear, like lies about his past (abusive father, runaway mother, it's different depending on what you're reading or watching) and he told her he liked her name, Harleen Quinzel, or Harley Quinzel because it was like the clown character Harleqiun. She soon falls in love with him and becomes Harley Quinn. She changed her name so it was more appealing to the Joker and she busted him out of the asylum. They've been, well, 'dating' from then on in an abusive manipulative relationship.

How did bill finger get the idea of Batman?

I met Bob Cane in Dec. of 1980 at the New York VA hospital. I had a long discuss with Bob Cane and He told me that he got the idea of his batman characters during his visits to mental institutions. The riddler was characterized from a mental patient who suffered from hyeanna disease a laughing disorder. the patient would just stand in front of a mirror and laugh all day as he look at him self in the mirror, the penguin was characterized from patients who were on the drug thorozine and developed what is called the side effect of the slow walk shuffle, Batman was a self portrait of the man himself ,Bob Cane, and once he had his core characters his formula for creating his characters was created.
