During a fight with The Joker, Batman falls into a chemical vat that somehow turns him into a baby. Who is going to take care and help raise baby Batman? The Joker, that's who.

Written by Satoshi Miyagawa (Uchuu Senkan Tiramisu) and illustrated by Keisuke Gotou, this manga finds Batman transformed into a baby following an accidental fall into the same vat of chemicals that turned the Joker into his evil self. Immediately after the accident, the Joker finds himself lost without his arch-nemesis and takes it upon himself to raise baby Bruce Wayne. However, the Joker finds fatherhood to be a lot more difficult than he initially thought.

The Joker is a psychopathic criminal mastermind who is known for his violent and unpredictable behavior. He is Batman's archenemy and has been responsible for many crimes and tragedies in Gotham City. When Batman falls into the chemical vat, The Joker is the one who finds him. He is shocked and surprised by the transformation, but he sees it as an opportunity to finally get rid of Batman once and for all.

At first, The Joker is determined to raise baby Batman as his own. He sees it as a chance to prove that he is better than Batman and to show the world that he can be a good father. However, as time goes on, The Joker realizes that fatherhood is not as easy as he thought it would be. He struggles to provide for baby Batman's needs, including food, shelter, and protection.

The Joker's methods of raising baby Batman are often cruel and violent. He treats baby Batman like a toy, experimenting with him and putting him in dangerous situations. He also tries to manipulate baby Batman into becoming his own version of Batman, using fear and violence to train him.

Despite his best efforts, The Joker is unable to control baby Batman. Baby Batman is too young and innocent to be influenced by The Joker's evil ways. He continues to resist The Joker's attempts to control him, and he eventually grows into a strong and independent child.

As baby Batman grows older, he begins to realize the true nature of The Joker. He understands that The Joker is not his father and that he has been used and abused by him. He also realizes that The Joker is responsible for many of the crimes and tragedies that have happened in Gotham City.

Baby Batman decides to take revenge on The Joker. He uses his intelligence and skills to gather information on The Joker's past and present crimes. He also trains himself to become a skilled fighter and detective, using his knowledge of The Joker's methods and tactics.

Finally, baby Batman confronts The Joker in a final battle. He uses all of his skills and knowledge to defeat The Joker and bring him to justice. The Joker is arrested and sentenced to life in prison, and baby Batman is hailed as a hero.

The Joker's transformation into a baby and his subsequent attempt to raise baby Batman is a dark and twisted tale of revenge and redemption. It shows that even the most evil and twisted characters can be redeemed, and that even the smallest and most innocent of beings can have a huge impact on the world.
