Variety has learned that WBIE (Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment) is set to introduce members of the Justice League of America in the next installment of Rocksteady's Batman series.

The entertainment trade magazine reports that the much-anticipated sequel to Arkham Asylum and Arkham City will, in fact, be a prequel centred on Batman's first meeting with his arch-nemesis The Joker. Stylistically, it will be based on the Silver Age era of DC comics (1956 to c.1970), when Batman first teamed up with other iconic DC heroes, like Superman and The Flash, establishing the Justice League of America.

Variety claims this is part of a conscious effort by Warner Bros. to expose audiences to the Justice League of America, as it ramps up production on a JLA movie. It also reports the game will be released in 2014 at the earliest, with a JLA film mooted for a big screen release sometime in 2015.

The Silver Age JLA typically consisted of 7 heroes: Superman, Batman, Aquaman, Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, and Wonder Woman. Which heroes would you like to appear in the next Batman game?

A prequal, huh? I wouldn't mind that. It wouldn't be a Batman: Arkham game without the Joker...

Spoilers: (Highlight to reveal)
And since the Joker died in Arkham City, a sequal would be exactly that unless they revive him somehow.


However, since Mark Hamill, the voice of the Joker, said he's stopped being his voice-actor after 19 years of doing so, do you think there would be someone else who could do his job just as well?
I will miss him doing the Joker's voice, as he does it so well.

A prequel would be interesting. Hope there's a fight with Superman in it.

Jaded-Raven, Mark Hamill started doing the Joker's voice for Batman: The Animated Series back in 1992.

He was a great Joker, but there are others who can do it well. John Dimaggio (Bender from Futurama) had a great voice in Batman: Under the Red Hood.

I listened to a podcast interview with Hammil recently where he said that him saying Arkham City would be his last time playing the Joker was actually a misquote.

He's not done for good, he's just only going to take Joker roles that do something really interesting and worth doing with the character. He especially hopes to one day voice an adaptation of The Killing Joke.
