He also revealed his real name: Jack Napier. Napier spent all of his efforts revealing how Batman's false heroics actually only lead to greater corruption in Gotham City.
After Jerome's death, Jeremiah discovered a gift in his secret office and opened it. The gift is revealed to be a jack-in-the-box in the form of a disfigured clown head that sprays Jeremiah with a special mixture of the laughing venom created by Jerome.

Yes, I'm referring to the Jokers—and no, that's not a typo. There are three of them.
Jerome was the more extravagant of the two and owed a lot to the traditional Jokers in that he wanted to be seen as he tortured people with huge attention-grabbing gestures. He was unhinged which, of course, made him incredibly dangerous – and, as we know, that's exactly how The Joker should be perceived.

Tim Drake as Joker Jr. Joker Jr. (or J.J. for short) is Tim Drake when he was brainwashed and tortured by The Joker in Batman Beyond : Return of The Joker. His laughs and crys are done by Andrea Romano.
That's right: Batman and Joker are half-brothers, at least according to Penny. The movie never explicitly makes clear whether that's true or not.

He states, “ Were both orphans,” or something along those lines. In S2, Jerome targets Bruce because Galavan told him to so that Galavan could then save Bruce's life and get close to him for his plan to eventually ceremonially kill him - it had nothing to do with Jerome being jealous of Bruce.

As Batman himself once said, “if I allow myself to go down into that place, I'll never come back.” In the 1989 film “Batman,” the Caped Crusader allows the Joker to fall to his death, although it is unclear whether this was a deliberate act or an accident.
The resulting explosion wipes out most of the organization, the pit itself, and, of course, Batman. So, once again the answer to the question “Who killed Batman?” is “Batman.” In both cases, though, the League of Shadows (specifically, Talia and Ra's al Ghul) obviously contributed to his demise.
