It's not hard for me to imagine that the Joker suffers multiple personality disorder and Batman's 'death' could temporarily give life to his 'normal' side. But the great thing about Going Sane is that JMD resists the temptation to fault Batman with the Joker's existence while still exploring how Joker feeds off him. Joe Kerr is actually cracking up long before he reads of Batman's return. And I find the moments where Bruce works through how his father might have felt about Batman to be a better exploration of his humanity than his visit with Joker at Arkham in TKJ.
