Shouting "EAT GLASS, LAWMAN!" to passing police cars.

...but mostly he's been kinda disturbed by the sudden revelation that Oberon Sexton is [spoiler]The Joker[/spoiler].

We all expected it. Both the Oberon and Sexton relate to different characters in Shakespeare plays, one of which is the playful fairy king, the other being a gravedigger dressed as a clown. As the character is known as "The Gravedigger", is more into Batman's identity's secret than anyone else, and is acting out behind the scenes, carefully nudging in the right direction for both fun and to bring Bruce back, it could pretty much only be him. I do have a problem with the long chin fitting into the mask, and with a page from a previous issue showing a tiny bit of his neckline and wrist, and it was of a normal skin tone. But since there are references made about the Clown fish, and there is potencial foreshadowing in the whole issues, it would be damn hard not to figure it out.

...sorry, I was nerding out. What again?

Oh, not him being the Joker. I more meant about him knowing about Bruce.

Both Joker and Jim Gordon have known about Bruce for AGES. Jim, pretty much since Year One, although if going to Wayne Manor in RIP and finding Damian both there and at a high society party later as Bruce Wayne's son didn't tip him out, I'm gonna be very dissapointed on Morrison. Joker? Well, he's known for ages, he just has never really cared about it until now. Because now, there is a villain who is using that same information to fight Bruce. Joker finds it fun to interfere. Not only that, in RIP, Joker actually sees Batman, in his Zur eh Arr clothes, take off his cowl and run to Jezebel Jet. And he says something to him then, they're even in the same panel. Joker's too smart to not figure it out. The fact that he hasn't cared about it so far, is because he only wants Batman, not some rich pampered kid.

Hmmmmm, it makes sense. I'd have to go back and re-read RIP again, cause that I kinda forgot about.

*interjecting* Its alwats been implied that Joker found out that Bruce was batman, but never really cared to divulge to anyone or tell bats himself. He finds it more fun the way it is.

He has. Tons of times. He's too smart not to, same as Gordon. But he's already said alot of times, he just cares about the act. Whenever someone tries to remove his mask or goes "Show us his real face!", he just goes "You idiots, that IS his real face!" He doesn't like the idea of Bruce Wayne, just of Batman himself. His fellow performer on the grand stage that is Gotham.

Read all of Grant Morrison's arcs, starting with Batman & Son, going through The Black Glove and RIP, Final Crisis, then Batman & Robin. Best way to know the plot.

Yeah I have them all. Heh, I'll probably read through them all again one day when organizing comics.

Still need to get Batman & Son in a non-issue way myself. I have this OCD-like obcession on having all arcs in paperbacks. Helps me know the story by bookshelf-looking.

Well, in all honesty, it's technically better to have comics in Graphic Novel form today because of the way they are written nowadays.
