In Batman of the future/beyond return of the joker. Joker didnt clone himself he used a computer chip to put his memories into Tim and that causes Tim to transform into Joker i think but i could be wrong.
I need a new Batman comic I only have a few like Dark Knight Returns and Killing Joke. But I want one like Arkham city where the stakes are big and the story and charecters are impressive.

No Man's Land does feel very similar (in premise, anyway) to Arkham City, what with Arkham being sealed off and left to rebuild itself. It also features (IIRC) a really heartbreaking moment with the Joker and Gordon's Wife. But I'd recommend it, because it's actually got a lot to say about how people react under horrific circumstances and isn't afraid to challenge the reader with incredibly mature themes.
Also, it has Lex Luthor. Can't go wrong with that guy.
Alternate universe. The modern Batman you know(modern and Redhood movies)is Earth-One Batman pretty much. After the Crisis series, Earth One and Two(original) were merged and most of Batman's canonical past was borrowed from Earth-One. Basically, the suit just looks a bit different, but he's the Batman most people are familiar with. I don't even recall what Earth-Two Batman was like at the end anymore.
Now they're restarting the Earth-One comics while keeping the original E1 story in Earth Two. I don't know what the hell is going on these days. I guess that's the point. The 80's and 00's Batman seems to be THE Batman in regards to storylines. It's weird that even though they rebooted Batman, there are still 2 former Robins(at least, we don't even know if Todd existed, nevermind the other 2 or 3 he had between Tim and Damian). I was really hoping the reboot was going to be a reboot and not just dropping us off in a set universe of Batman that's already in the middle of shit.
Oh and to answer your second question, "Crisis on Infinite Earths" and "Infinite Crisis" stories involved Earth-One as well as other random comics and the upcoming graphic novel.
Variety is reporting that Rocksteady's next entry into their Batman series will in fact be a prequel detailing Batman's first meeting with the Joker and will also feature members of the Justice League, presumably to get people ready for the JLA movie.

A new Batman game from Rocksteady, based on the comics from the silver age? Sounds awesome! But is it really going to be a prequel to the Arkham games? Sounds more like a spin-off title, like the Ultimate Spider-Man game from 2005.
I'm hoping it's a one-off title. No offence, but it doesn't sound like it would fit the new game cannon very well. Oh I'll play it and I'll love it, but it just doesnt convey the same as the other games.
He also specifically mentioned that he would come back for The Killing Joke if it were to be made and then sort of retracted the comment, saying that he just doesn't feel this ending could be topped for his Joker. He left it open to be proven wrong though. It was pretty much just like Arkham Asylum when he retired the first time.
It's Silver Age Batman. Mark Hamill wouldn't work.
Maybe I just don't get what's so different about Silver Age. If it's supposed to be a prequel to Arkham Asylum, then I doubt Rocksteady will change the tone too much.
My biggest problem with them doing a prequel is that Arkham City left so many things open for a sequel: Hush, Azrael's warnings, the missing bodies of R'as and Talia, Scarecrow, and the fact that Black Mask and Killer Croc are unaccounted for. As cool as it could be to go through Joker's first actual meeting with our dear Dark Knight, there's a lot that they could've picked up on. My personal theory on why they're doing a prequel is that they want to keep the Joker around but aren't sure if they should resurrect him.
No, Mark Hamill said he would play Joker again if they made The Killing Joke into an animated movie. Fingers are crossed for Arkham 3.
Besides, here are a few ways Rocksteady could resurrect the Joker:
2nd Lazarus pit that Ra's Al Ghul had for backups
Wasn’t really dead
Corpse was actually another Clayface look-a-like.
Corpse given Solomon Grundy’s curse

No but
Hate to be a derp here, but...derp?
Spoilers for Harleys revenge^
BTW Spoiler tags keep breaking! loads of times it looks like I never put one on then later it repairers.
I'm still pulling for Hush.
Also, it has Lex Luthor. Can't go wrong with that guy.

You mean that one..guy...before mark hamil?
Did anyone notice the sign in Harley’s Revenge saying that “When my Joker comes back we will all be happy”? Isn’t that some sort of hint?
Maybe but I just assumed it was just her madness since it was on a drawing she did.
So, that's something for you to check out.
