1) Just make it the origin of Leto's Joker. There's no need to add to confusion and start a whole new universe.

2) The DC characters are not split up as Marvel characters are by rights holders (X-Men belong to Fox, Spider-Man to Sony, etc). Just keep one universe.

It's a multiverse. That's how they can have a Superman and a Flash in the movies and a Superman and a Flash on the CW TV shows. This is no different.

3) The Joker is not supposed to have an origin.

The Joker did have an origin in the comics. He was a thief who wore a Red Hood and was the 1 criminal whom Batman could never catch or identify who he was.

That is right again DCfan. Not only was the Joker the first Red Hood in the comic books but he was also the Red Hood before he become the Joker in the 'Arkham' games as evident in all the posters hanging up around Gotham City asking who the Red Hood is in 'Arkham Origins' and you actually getting to play as the Red Hood inside the Joker's mind when he gets sent to Blackgate Prison. The Joker starting out as the Red Hood has been one of those things that has been around for a while in the comic books much like Batman being a leader, mentor and inspiration to Batgirl, Nightwing, the Spoiler, Orphan, Red Robin, Batwoman, Hawkfire, Red Hood (when Jason turns back good even though they still have a rocky relationship) Bluebird and Batwing which is why I laugh when I see people asking how can Batman be the leader of the Justice League when he is more capable of being their leader than any other member and has been a leader and mentor figure for well over 60 years.
