In the arc "Going Sane," when the Joker believes he kills Batman and the hero is out of action, he abandons his evil, chaotic personality, changes his appearance, doesn't even remember his past personality aside from maybe glimpses, acts like a normal and fine man. Then he remembers more & more and feels compelled to become the Joker again and does after Batman returns.
I guess Batman just didn't and still hasn't realized that the Joker was out of action at the same time that he was and returned soon after he did but as a reader with more knowledge than the character, if there is such a connection to them how does that bad effect of there being a Batman weigh against the good Batman has done?
