Where's the Joker in the New 52? I know he was in Detective #1, but he apparently died there. Is that the end for the Joker in the New 52? He can't be dead. Can he?

He's likely not dead, he's just lying in wait. He had his own face cut off and, in Detective Comics, he's been shown to have developed a cult following for it.
I expect a follow-up story to Detective #1 at some point. Not sure if that will turn out to really be him who lost his face or not.

Rumor is Snyder and Capullo's next arc has Joker as the main villain, right? I hope so, that sounds great and I love Snyder's Joker in The Black Mirror. Glad he's out of Daniel's hands, the face thing was ridiculous IMO.

I like having him off the table for extended periods of time. His role in Morrison's run felt like an event.
