Exactly.
What people should look to is the Animated Series. Isn't it interesting that Joker is the only major villain that isn't introduced with an origin episode? He's just there at the beginning of the series. A few hints here and there, but no origin. He doesn't need one. Everyone (even casual viewers) has some idea of the chemical bath story, especially thanks to B89.
It's a kids show.
And come 2008 most people won't remember 89 all too readily.
