I never seen this as rape, just Joker playing mind games with Gordon. But I think is notorious enough for it to be retroactively made in to explicit rape just so all the snowflakes can justify being ultra offended by it.
In order to pretend like women have no vulnerabilities and aren't weaker than men and are clown girlbosses, yes. For any actual issue with the cover or the original comic, no
It's a comic book fantasy world Anon. We have to pretend that the Joker is so awsum that he can thwart the Angel of God's Vengeance, Martian Supermen, regular Supermen, and that Batman can make a pan-dimensional God of Tyranny bleed his own blood.
Oh and Gimp Batgirl can of course beat up 99.99999999999% of the planet, you have no trouble digesting that.
Cass-gays would have lost their shit if that had been her on the cover, it's just feeding the incel Babs-rape-by-Joker fantasy.
DC luvs them some rape from time to time.
For something to be controversial, there must be at least two mutually-exclusive opposing sides, both with legitimate arguments founded in reality as we know it.
The entire point of characters like Batgirl(s) is sexual. Threats to them sexually, who they are having sex with...Babs current arc entirely revolves around her sexual relationship with Dick. Comic nerds like to see legacy teen tiddy characters, and it ain't because they like stories from a female protagonist's perspective. They sneer at the idea of them being effective protagonists at all.

All teen-tiddy legacy character exist to excite man-boys. Cass has to have no concept of modesty for raisins. Cory is an ex sex-slave. X-23 is an underage prostitute. Mary Marvel has to be an Evil bawd at least every other adaptation.
Incels lose their shit if they as much as wear pants.
You seem to have constructed a very feeble argumentation around that line of reasoning. Out of those four (four!) examples, two are anecdotical, and the other two have been quickly swept under the rug, so I suppose they don't get supported much. But I guess that's what happens when you try to fit everything into a narrow conceptual box.
No, it was forced and idiotic
Ñao

I don't think they would.
All things Joker are 100% necessary to their financial solvency, so yes.
Did she get raped?
DC would like to sell you that idea, sure.
It makes the peepees of their 40 yo fanbase hard.

There was no controversy.

Please don't project the shortcomings of your shit waifu as a trait common to all female superheroes.
