The canonical answer is that Joe Chill killed them. Usually. I don't know of any stories where Batman got revenge on him.
I think the 1989 movie merged Joe Chill with the Joker because it made for a tighter story with fewer important characters. The Wikipedia article above claims that Joe Chill was originally slated to be the killer in the movie, as well, but they swapped in the Joker.
Gotham has a different story, Bruce track down Joe chill with the help of the joker,and decided not to kill him,but left him with powerful words and he kills himself just when detective Gordon arrived
Both The Joker and Joe Chill murdered his parents together as partners. Joker is best known for being the shooter and Joe Chill grabbing the jewels and money.That's the true answer. They BOTH did!
