I wonder if they're going to have a storyline reason as to why the Joker can actually fight and beat Superman in a 1 on 1 fight.
I hope not, I think it's better when you just kind of ignore the realism and let the game be senselessly fun, like Marvel vs. Capcom.
I don't think they have to. Remember how they were referring to certain characters as gadget characters? Well there is no one better to take full advantage of that title than Joker. And when you think about it he's never been incapable of fighting he's just no martial artist and is usually relying on his "gags" to help him out.
So they don’t have to go the whole “Since when can Joker fight?” route again like they did in Mk vs DC
That's not my point AT ALL. The fact is Joker could never even beat Nightwing in a fight, much less SUPERMAN. Realistically, a punch from Joker would cause his hand to break and Superman wouldn't feel a thing. That's obviously not going to happen in the game.

Agreed, but they said they would explain it. I thought the reasoning for the power shifts in MKDC was really weak. Hopefully it will be better this time
Well, fuck. Are you sure they said that? I hope you're wrong, and yes the explanation in MK vs. DC was total balls.

IMO, Joker's like Magneto to the X-men; same with Lex Luthor's like Dr. Doom, without either it's practically naked.
I completely disagree and I wish less people would think like you. Batman Begins and Dark Knight Rises were brilliant and featured zero Jokers.
Batman the Animated Series was genius from start to finish, even the episodes without Joker.
Lex Luthor is fairly lame, Superman has a ton of better foil enemies.
Some of the X-Men's greatest storylines featured 0 Magnetos. The Dark Phoenix Saga, Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men books... The list goes on.
