Thanks to the Queen joke on B2 ...

... I realized why Batman and Joker are perfect for each other.

They're both princes. Bruce is an American Prince, Joker is the Clown Prince of Crime. Orphaned princes, at that, although I don't think we ever see Joker's parents.

An argument could be made, from a certain perspective, that Bruce Wayne is not only Batman, but also Joker. Dissociative identity disorder and all that (see: Doom Patrol).

Or, skipping over that, it could just boil down to Batman being a princess story "for boys".
