The Joker (Comic Book)	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Clown Prince of Crime. The Harlequin of Hate. The Ace of Knaves. The Jester of Genocide. The Mountebank of Mirth.The Monster Clown. The Arch-Enemy.The Joker is a comic book supervillain owned by DC Comics, who primarily appears as a member of Batman's Rogues Gallery. He first appeared in Batman #1 (25 April, 1940). He was created by Bob Kane, Bill Finger and Jerry Robinson. Credit for the Joker's creation is disputed; Kane and Robinson claimed responsibility for the Joker's design, but acknowledged Finger's writing contribution. Comics scholars lean to Robinson and Finger as Joker's true creators owing to Kane's well documented history of swiping and hiring ghost-artists for his work. Originally he was to die at the end of his second appearance, but the comic's editor wouldn't allow it feeling it was a waste of a perfectly good villain.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Originally portrayed as a cunning criminal with a constant grin and an occasional sadistic streak, he became a goofy prankster in the The Silver Age of Comic Books, before in the 1970s becoming the terrifying mixture of whimsy and malice that he's known as today. As Batman's arch-nemesis, the Joker has been part of many of the superhero's defining stories, including the murder of Jason Todd (the second Robin and Batman's ward) and the paralysis of Batgirl, Barbara Gordon.The most famous origin stories for the Joker are The Man Behind the Red Hood by Bill Finger and The Killing Joke by Alan Moore. In the former, the Joker was an infamous thief known as "the Red Hood" who, while robbing a chemical plant, was accidentally knocked into a vat of toxins by Batman, giving him white skin, green hair, and a permanent smile. The origin put forth in The Killing Joke is fairly similar, with the main change being that the Joker was actually a harmless failed comedian that was blackmailed into donning the Red Hood and committing the robbery the same day his pregnant wife died; the trauma of this "one bad day" drove him completely mad.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Despite the popularity of these origins, DC's official stance is that no version of the Joker's origin is true. He is the Trope Namer for Multiple-Choice Past, after all, and the Joker has openly and brazenly lied about his origins to others many times. But as far as most are concerned, he doesn't need an origin, feeling that it only accentuates his status as the perfect foil to Batman. Where Batman is a dead-serious vigilante driven by heartbreak, the Joker is a zany and unpredictable killer. Where Batman represents order, the Joker represents chaos. And where Batman has a patrician ancestry dating back multiple generationsnote with some versions stating that he is related to 'Mad Anthony' Wayne, an American brigadier general during The American Revolution, the Joker has no past whatsoever — he simply is. All that is definitively agreed upon by most writers and fans is that, in some way, Batman played a prominent role in the Joker's creation.The Joker enjoys spreading death and chaos wherever he can, but he has a particular interest in tormenting Batman above most others. The exact reason why can vary Depending on the Writer — as revenge for the chemical incident, for philosophical and moral reasons to prove a point, because the Joker considers Batman his perfect Straight Man, because the Joker is infatuated with him and wants his attention, or just because he gets more joy from troubling Batman than he does others. Whatever the case, the Joker is considered Batman's Arch-Enemy, and virtually every major Batman adaptation depicts him as the Dark Knight's most persistent foe.The Joker relies on cunning and intelligence to pull off his schemes; he is a masterful manipulator and a brilliant chemist, using the latter to create poisons and chemical weapons including his trademark Joker Venom, which kills its victims and leaves the corpse with a wide smile like the Joker's.note Depending on the Writer, it may also bleach their skin white, turn their lips bright red, and/or sends them into uncontrollable laughter as they succumb. His only superpower is an acquired immunity to poisons due to a combination of his chemical accident and prolonged exposure to his Joker Venom. The Joker may also have a unique mental condition that causes him to invent a new personality for himself every so often, making him even more unpredictable.Despite his lack of powers, the Joker is considered one of the most dangerous and feared villains in DC Comics, because he is just so depraved, insane, and chaotic, that he is capable of things even other supervillains wouldn't do. The Joker's unpredictable nature means most other supervillains refuse to work with him because they feel they can't trust him and he'll betray them or pursue his own agenda, and inevitably he proves them right. While the Joker has joined groups like the Injustice Gang and Injustice League, it never lasts, either the Joker turns on them or they turn on him when they tire of his antics. Batman: The Animated Series introduced Harley Quinn, the Joker's former psychiatrist who fell in love with him and is now his on-and-off sidekick and girlfriend. Because of her blind devotion and love for him, Quinn is about the one long-term relationship Joker can sustain because she sticks by him in spite of how horribly he treats her. This has loosened in later years as she realizes the Joker is a domestic abuser who doesn't return her affections, but to what extent she abandons him and if Joker is able to sway her back to him varies Depending on the Writer.For all of this, the Joker is one of the most iconic villains in fiction, comparable to the likes of Darth Vader and Iago, and many other villains take cues from him. He is widely considered one of the greatest villains in comics and is without question the most famous and prolific, appearing in virtually every piece of Batman media and most DC Comics general media, not to mention a wide assortment of merchandise. Through it all the Joker's popularity has never waned and he continues to be reimaged by writers over and over across pop culture media.The Joker has served as Batman's classical adversary not just in the comics, but also in multiple media incarnations:Live-Action: Batman and Batman: The Movie (1966), played by Cesar Romero Batman (1989), played by Jack Nicholson The Dark Knight (2008), played by Heath Ledger (Ledger was posthumously awarded the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal) DC Extended Universe: Suicide Squad (2016), played by Jared Leto Birds of Prey (2020), played by Fake Shemp Johnny Goth Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021), played by Jared Leto again Gotham (2019), played by Cameron Monaghan (although due to Warner Bros Writing Around Trademarks, the name "Joker" is never used). Joker (2019), played by Joaquin Phoenix (Phoenix won the Academy Award for Best Actor, making the Joker one of only two characters to win an Oscar for two different actors — the other is Vito Corleone from The Godfather)Voice Acting: Mark Hamill deserves his own list. Through voice acting, he has played the character more than any other actor. The DC Animated Universe Batman: The Animated Series Batman: Mask of the Phantasm Superman: The Animated Series Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker Static Shock Justice League Batman: The Killing Joke note He had been apprehensive about returning to the Joker for every new project, but always said he would return for The Killing Joke Justice League Action Batman: Arkham Series in Asylum, City, Knight, and VR. DC Universe Online LEGO DC Super-Villains Richard Epcar, who voices the character in video games by NetherRealm Studios, also deserves his own list. Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe Mortal Kombat 11 Injustice: Gods Among Us Injustice 2 Infinite Crisis note His only turn as the character that was not developed by Netherrealm Troy Baker is yet a third person with his own list. The young version of the Arkham Joker seen Batman: Arkham Origins and Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate, as well as the tie-in film Batman: Assault on Arkham Batman Unlimited: Monster Mayhem and Batman Unlimited: Mech vs. Mutants Batman vs. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Batman: The Long Halloween The Batman by Kevin Michael Richardson The Batman vs. Dracula Batman: The Brave and the Bold by Jeff Bennett Scooby-Doo! & Batman: The Brave and the Bold Batman: Under the Red Hood by John DiMaggio Young Justice by Brent Spiner Batman: The Dark Knight Returns by Michael Emerson The LEGO Batman Movie by Zach Galifianakis Harley Quinn by Alan TudykRead in his own voice here.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_1282bf4f	comment	No Celebrities Were Harmed: Some of the Joker's victims fall into this. Batman: The Dark Knight Returns sees him kill David Endochrine and Ruth Weisenheimer, who were clearly based on David Letterman and Dr. Ruth Westheimer. During Knightfall, once he realizes that Azrael isn't Batman, his plan's gone to hell, and one too many criticisms from Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert stand-ins, he kills the stand-ins. In one of the issues for the The Batman tie-in comic, The Batman Strikes, he terrorizes a stand-in for Conan O'Brien. Interestingly enough, the real O'Brien voiced Endochrine in the animated version of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. In the series proper, Harley's debut had the two of them terrorize a stand-in for Dr. Phil for the climax.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_13abce74	comment	Misanthrope Supreme: While it's not evident given Joker's Laughing Mad demeanor and his penchant for macabre jokes usually at the life and limb expense of someone else, Joker is actually absolutely full of hatred and spite towards basically everyone and the entire world. Several stories have gone into this and it's implied that the Joker finds it so easy to kill everyone around him, not because he feels nothing for them, but in fact because he loathes everyone aside from his twisted relationship with Batman. The first issue of Batman with Joker's debut has him described as having "burning, hate-filled eyes" and the moniker, "the harliquin of hate". The Man Who Laughs had Bruce dosed with a light version of the Joker Venom and he felt his perspective shift into a paranoid vengeance were he felt everyone deserved to be punished for his parent's death just for existing. Death of the Family had Batman describe how Joker's irises are always narrow when looking at anyone but Batman and that it is usually an indication of negative feelings toward something with Bruce mentioning that his eye are the eyes of someone who hates everything he sees.

Batman: Arkham City ended with him covering The Platters' "Only You (and You Alone)", Batman: Arkham Origins had him cover Hank Williams' "Cold, Cold, Heart" and Batman: Arkham Knight had him provide an original composition, "Can't Stop Laughing".

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_2ed5e99d	comment	Depraved Bisexual: The Joker is completely and utterly insane and sadistic. The Killing Joke showed the not-yet Joker's pregnant wife saying that he was "good in the sack." There's also the few and far-between Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other moments he has with Harley. Plus all that Foe Romance Subtext he has toward Batman. Harley and Ivy both think that the Joker only has eyes for Batman. Joker has often professed affection toward Batman (complete with moments of desperate attention-needing) and in "Cacophony" Joker explicitly states that he wants Batman sexually. Although, being the Joker, he wants him sexually only after he's dead.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_319e4a2f	type	Even Evil Has Standards
The Joker (Comic Book) / int_319e4a2f	comment	Even Evil Has Standards: Oddly enough, this trope does occasionally apply to him. Let's just say this right off... if you manage to offend The Joker's sensibilites or moral compass (this being a man who has spent 80 years using the Moral Event Horizon as a jumprope) you truly have gone beyond the pale. He abruptly ends a partnership with Red Skull when his Nazi affiliation comes out. Red Skull simply wonders why he is so surprised when he thinks that the Joker would make a great Nazi. The Joker is NOT happy about this, proclaiming "I may be a criminal lunatic, but I'm an American criminal lunatic!" It even provides the trope's image. And yes, folks, even an equal-opportunity murderer like the Joker despises the Nazis!note The Joker had originally thought that Red Skull was just dressing up as a Nazi as a sort of theme, which he approved of because it sounded like great trolling. The exception is mentioned again in the Last Laugh arc where the Joker immediately refused to join the American Neo-Nazi Aryan Alliance group in the Slab after he was offered membership. Later on he is disgusted when his minions vandalize the Moai on Eastern Island. Will not harm dumb animals and doesn't condone it. There's no humor to be had in that. Higher primates apparently do not qualify but a lot more effort went into that one. While in Arkham with villain Warren White, AKA the Great White Shark, Joker calls him the worst person he ever met. He states that while he may kill people, even he doesn't steal their kids' college funds. Sees nothing funny about someone parking in a handicap spot when they're not handicapped. However, he does think it's hilarious to hurt them in ways that will make certain they'll always be able to park there. A girl named Janey Bennett, whose class was studying criminal behavior, became pen pals with the Joker while he was in Arkham. When Janey revealed that her father, the mayor of Motor City, was abusing her (exactly how isn't specified, though it was implied to have been really bad) the Joker broke out and, convinced that the authorities would be of no help, tried to force the mayor into admitting to his crimes and giving him Janey (so that he could find a better home for her) by threatening to contaminate the city's blood supply, going through with it (because the ends justify the means) when the mayor refused to give in to his demands. He originally intended to give her to Batman as well so he could protect her but at the end decided to give her to her mom. The Joker absolutely loathes The Batman Who Laughs, to the point where he drops his usual joking demeanor and is deathly serious whenever directly referring to him, even willing to work together with Batman to face him when it comes down to it. When Lex Luthor goes behind his back to make a deal with The Batman Who Laughs (going against the only condition Joker has for joining his plan), Joker responds by Joker-gassing the Legion of Doom, putting Lex into a series of deathtraps, trashing Lex's Power Armor, and quitting the Legion. In the process, he tells Luthor how he had planned on ruining the Legion utterly on the verge of victory, and as nightmarish as his plan sounded, he claims it is nothing compared to what the Batman Who Laughs is going to do. Again, when he rescues Lex from The Batman Who Laugh's infected minions in Hell Arisen, the mere mention of his alternate universe rival prompts him to have a very uncharacteristic Freak Out. While he still gloated about it and found Commissioner Gordon kneecapping him funny after remember that he'd crippled Barbara, the actual act of killing Sarah Essen in the penultimate issue of Batman: No Man's Land is one of the few times the Joker wasn't happy with something he himself did, considering he's seen walking away while scowling afterward, leaves the babies he originally planned to murder unharmed and immediately turns himself in to the police. Emperor Joker sees the Joker disgusted with a corrupted Jimmy Olsen tormenting the Superfamily and Batman when they're turned into animals.

Regardless, many of his crimes and attitudes often carry an undercurrent or resentment be it towards to Bat-family because he resents sharing Batman with anyone or normal people for living their mundane lives free of care. Given how much spite seems to fuel his rampages, Joker's probably got a mountain of resentment inside of him.

He actually committed crimes for moneynote Well, jewels, anyway. For all we know he was just throwing them away, and wasn't really interested in causing chaos or terror for a joke's sake. Building off of that, his plans weren't really "insane" until the Silver Age (at which point it's not even fair to say this was exclusive to him), nor was there any question of the character's mental stability. His obsession with Batman wasn't there, much less the idea that he would pass up chances to kill the Bat or learn his identity. This aspect was probably introduced to explain the Bond Villain Stupidity he (and every Batman villain) had become infamous for in the Silver Age. His clown-like complexion was actually makeup in his early appearances. He even removed his makeup to disguise himself as a cop, which was referenced in The Dark Knight. It's later revealed that the look is permanent after falling in a vat of chemicals.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_6654b17b	comment	Facial Horror: His iconic "perma-clown" appearance (the green hair, chalk-white skin, and most of the time, red lips) is the result of being submerged in a tank of chemicals. However, there was times this has gotten worse. While The Dark Knight is one of the few times the Joker's clown-like appearance is the result of make-up, he does sport a Glasgow Grin. While Joker still has the permanent clown look, it's combined with the Glasgow Grin. While Batman: Endgame would see the skin of his face restored with a chemical called Dionesiumnote found in Ra's Al-Ghul's Lazarus pits and the meteor that made Vandal Savage immortal, at the start of The New 52, the Joker had the Dollmaker skin his face and then, after he recovered it, spent Death of the Family wearing it like a Leatherface-esque mask. And even in Endgame, his restored face ends up badly burned as the result of the finale battle between him and Batman, though it still ends up restored again. Gotham sees neither Valeska escape this. After his death in season 2, Jerome (the proto-Joker) ends up resurrected in season 3, but because Dwight thinks his attempt to revive him failed, Dwight ends up cutting off Jerome's face ala Death of the Family and Jerome ends up stapling it on when he catches up with Dwight and while he later has it properly reattached, there's still scars from what happened. Jeremiah, Jerome's twin and the show's true Joker, ends up with the "perma-clown" appearance due to Jerome having the Scarecrow brew something up to spray in Jeremiah's face, but season 5 sees his fateful fall at Ace Chemicals badly scar his face and sear off most of his hair with only stringy patches left. Averted entirely in Joker (2019), where his clown appearance is entirely makeup, and the worst it gets is painting his iconic smile on his face with his own blood from a car crash. Not even a Glasgow Grin or anything, the blood is from his hand and his face only has a few normal cuts on it.

The Hawaiian tourist outfit he wore in the notorious scene in The Killing Joke. The white suit he wears in Miller's The Dark Knight Returns as well as the white nurse maid outfit with red wig in The Dark Knight is also quite notable. The Future Joker look from Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker which went with a mime look (black body suit, slicked-back hair) is also quite distinct and unique.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_74ba7be	comment	Mirthless Laughter: The Joker's constantly laughing, either at the pain and misery of others, the pain and misery he inflicts on others, or even his own pain. However, as describe by many and offered by the reader based on his scenes and what he does, there is NEVER any joy in his laughter. Never any real happiness. Just cruelty and mockery of pain and sorrow. If he does indeed have a tragic backstory that caused his madness, then this makes sense as he has chosen to laugh instead of cry. His statement about how the universe should end "so there won't be anymore people like me" during the Emperor Joker storyline lends weight to him being a Sad Clown.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_77aae115	type	Hated by All
The Joker (Comic Book) / int_77aae115	comment	Hated by All: Apart from Harley (and even then, only when their on-off relationship is "on"), Gaggy and Punchline, no one likes or supports the Joker. In any way, whatsoever. Damn near every other member of Batman's Rogues Gallery hates his guts, mostly because not only is he completely sociopathic and unpredictable, but also they are all scared shitless by him. The only reason why he's even allowed in teams such as the Legion of Doom is because of that fear: if they exclude him from the lineup, then chances are that dead bodies will be lining the streets in their name. Trickster spells it out in "Underworld Unleashed." Nether Realm Studios especially seems to love making Joker out to be evil incarnate. In Injustice: Gods Among Us and its sequel, he loses all his cred (and life) once he nukes Metropolis; Harley ditches him entirely, Batman just completely gives up on indulging him any more, even Guest Fighters like Hellboy consider him worthless, and non-Batvillains such as Grodd and Brainiac and even Darkseid loathe him for either Metropolis, or just in general principle. Mortal Kombat 11 shows that even the MK cast see him as a scourge upon the realms, and also express distaste toward him for either his nuking, a previous outing, or because he's seen as a buffoon who cannot be taken seriously (this is usually the case for other villain characters). About the only person who can tolerate him for long is Lex Luthor, only because they both have the same level of hatred for their respective enemies. Even then, Luthor prefers to keep his distance from the Joker, if only because a bored Joker screws with everything For the Evulz.

He even believes his origins, Depending on the Writer of course. One issue of the Robin Series had him talking about having Abusive Parents, only for a psychiatrist to tell him it's the seventh story he's told now. Batman lampshades on this to Harley in the animated series, thinking it's another lie to gain sympathy. The Killing Joke claims he was a failed comedian driven to crime to support his pregnant wife. The trauma of his disfigurement and his wife's earlier accidental death drove him mad. However, even this could be a lie, as he himself calls it "multiple choice". It's even discussed in Injustice 2, as Atrocitus wonders what drove the Joker to nihilism. Despite only appearing as a hallucination to Harley in story mode, he spews out multiple theories for his Unexplained Recovery and will say Sure, Let's Go with That in non-canon fights.

So he kidnaps all the patrons and reenacts his act with control collars that will kill them when they laugh.

Part of the reason Gordon takes over the post of Commissioner in both The Dark Knight Trilogy and Batman: Arkham Series is due to the Joker killing Gillian Loeb. Additionally, the first game in the latter series, Asylum, he sees several of Arkham's guards killed by him and his men. He's holding a dead cop's corpse in his intro in Injustice: Gods Among Us and using it as a puppet.

Despite appearances, he's usually very cunning, and always very dangerous. In fact, part and parcel of what makes the Joker's plans devastating is that he knows how to hide the punchline for lack of a better word.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_b0356af5	comment	Moment of Lucidity: There've been a few times when outside forces have sent him into a fit of temporary sanity over the years. In the Justice League storyline "Rock of Ages", Martian Manhunter has to put in incredible effort to reorganize Joker's mind long enough for him to give up the cataclysmic Philosopher's Stone. The briefly sane Joker immediately says My God, What Have I Done? verbatim as he hands it back, before quickly losing his mind and going back to the laughing madman. The famous example from the end of The Killing Joke, where Batman tries to convince him to allow Batman to rehabilitate him before their vendetta kills them. Joker considers it for a long, somber moment before quietly reflecting that they're both too far gone. Batman: Cacophony ends with Joker being pumped full of an inhuman amount of antipsychotic drugs to keep him under control while in recovery from a near-fatal stabbing. Batman takes the opportunity to have a relatively-sane conversation with him, though it's somewhat subverted by Joker still being a homicidal sociopath even while heavily sedated.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_b11ac9f5	comment	Abusive Parents: One common tactic for the Joker to garner sympathy is claiming he was ill-treated by his parents. Given his propensity to spew out different and sometimes contradictory backstories, nobody knows if they're true. In the animated series, he claims to have been beaten as a child when interviewed by Harley Quinn. It is unknown if this is true. According to Batman, he's simply making it up. In one issue of New 52, he claims to have been driven insane by an abusive grandmother, who also bleached his skin to its present pallor. In the same continuity, he is one to a baby gorilla he adopts, trains up as a gun-wielding henchman, and ultimately gets killed off for laughs. In the comic book adaptation of Injustice, it's implied Harley fears Joker would be one, and gives their daughter to her sister, lest he kill the child. It's left ambiguous whether the Joker's even aware of the ruse.

Some stories claims The Joker is actually sane, but pretends to be otherwise to avoid the death penalty. Others says he is genuinely crazy. It must be noted that Joker, like other Batman villains, was only identified as insane from the 70s onwards by various writers.note This was part of the trend of Hollywood Mental Disorders in the air and which DC editors and writers infused into the stories to keep it contemporary. It must be noted that from a legal perspective, Joker would not qualify as insane. Insanity has a separate clinical and legal definition, and a legal definition of insanity stops short at whether the person knowingly inflicts cruelty and accepts that he's breaking laws, both of which fits Joker perfectly

Joker loves attention and being above the normals, so never imply that he's not interesting or unique. Terry exploits this flaw in Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker just to drive him to a Villainous Breakdown. The Batman Who Laughs. Since the character's first appearance in Dark Nights: Metal, the mere mention of him is enough to put The Joker in an uncharacteristically un-jolly mood and is a good way to get on his bad side. In fact, the dislike of this twisted version of his archnemesis is so great, that when Lex Luthor and The Legion of Doom started cooperating with him against Joker's protests, he quit the legion (after non-lethally jokerizing every other member of it) in disgust. If you're going to hurt Batman, do it right. One of the supplementary stories for Joker War had him beyond furious with Bane - to the point of promising him he'd kill him in a way he would never see coming - for showing so little imagination in killing Alfred in City of Bane without even letting Batman listen to it to torture him. By his reckoning, if you have a great gag to break the Bat, use it to break the Bat - don't blow it by having Robin be the only one to witness it.

The most accepted version is that he was a thug named the Red Hood who gets disfigured falling into a vat while trying to escape Batman. His backstory still remains a mystery. Why he went by the name the Red Hood has changed over the years: The Killing Joke claims he was a failed comedian driven to crime to support his pregnant wife. The trauma of his disfigurement from jumping in the acid and his wife's earlier accidental death drove him insane. However, even this backstory is questionable, as the Joker himself calls it "multiple choice". In Injustice 2, an intro with Atrocitus has the Red Lantern wondering what drove the Joker to nihilism. Exploited the animated series. He claims to have been abused as a child when interviewed by Harley, but according to Batman, it's just another ruse to escape Arkham, and manipulate people into giving him what he wants, which is how he managed to convince Harley into becoming his henchwoman.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_ca87e3ec	comment	No Name Given: The Joker is the only Batman villain who doesn't have an official real identity.

The Gotham version played by Cameron Monaghan gives him the name Jeremiah Valeska. The Joaquin Phoenix version used the name "Arthur Fleck", though the movie raises the question that he doesn't know who his father is, so 'Fleck' might not even be his surname. The Telltale series plays with this by 'naming' him 'John Doe' - which is just a stand-in name police/hospitals use when they don't know someone's identity. While he still has no official name to this day, it's general fan consensus that it's either Jack Napier or just Jack.

Ironically, a 1952 story has the Joker get himself falsely committed to an insane asylum, to question a patient who knew the location of a cache of money.

As such, Joker was literally a nobody... who turned into the DC Universe's scariest villain, and who at times has upstaged even Brainiac or Darkseid.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_e313bcdc	comment	He has had sex with Harley, but it is implied that it's more for her rather than his own enjoyment. He has actively ignored her when he simply wants to work on his schemes, even when she's in the translucent red night dress.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_e5d8460d	comment	It's even discussed in Injustice 2, as Atrocitus wonders what drove the Joker to nihilism. Despite only appearing as a hallucination to Harley in story mode, he spews out multiple theories for his Unexplained Recovery and will say Sure, Let's Go with That in non-canon fights. Was he resurrected by someone, or is he from another universe? Did he escape from either the Source Wall or the Phantom Zone, or is he just an apparition?

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_e5fd8bc2	type	Hate Sink
The Joker (Comic Book) / int_e5fd8bc2	comment	Hate Sink: Posthumously, his Injustice-verse incarnation is the primary target for audience scorn and gets saddled with this role by everyone in the game, its sequel, and the tie-in comics — the version from the Injustice-verse itself, at least. This is because he tricked Superman into killing his own wife Lois Lane and nuking Metropolis, then pulling a Strike Me Down with All of Your Hatred on the poor guy who that set him on the path to becoming a tyrant, all for the sake of doing it and go after a much more vulnerable target compared to Batman. His role as The Corrupter to Harley is explained to make her redemption feel more plausible, as even she has come to despise him for his actions. In particular, while Superman does terrible things, he is portrayed as a Tragic Villain due to the losses he suffered before becoming a bad guy, and as such, his killing of the Joker is always played for maximum pathos. Even villains as despicable as Brainiac, Darkseid and Gorilla Grodd openly despise him. This even continues into his Guest Fighter appearance in Mortal Kombat 11note Even though that Joker is implied to be either the one from Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe or from the non-Regime Earth in the first Injustice game, rather than the one that actually nuked Metropolis, where even the likes of Kano, Shang Tsung and Shao Kahn can't stand him.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_e83f211c	comment	OOC Is Serious Business: A general rule of thumb: If the Joker isn't smiling, something very bad is about to happen. If you want to know how truly terrifying The Batman Who Laughs is, look no further than the way Joker acts whenever discussing him. He doesn't laugh, he doesn't smile. He becomes calm and serious and simply tells whomever he's talking to that the TBWL is "a wrong thing that shouldn't exist". Someone HAS to be scary if the very thought of him makes Joker act like a calm rational sane person. In Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, the clown has a massive Villainous Breakdown when Terry mocks him for his failed attempts to break Batman.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_e8cfde67	comment	Ambiguous Disorder: He's undeniably insane and Ax-Crazy, but has no official diagnosis. If anything, he can just be diagnosed with "Being the Joker". However, it’s possible he’s perfectly sane and just The Sociopath, and is using his manipulation abilities to continue his reign of terror. Averted in one story, wherein one of Arkham's doctors realizes Joker's faking insanity just to piss off Batman as revenge for his disfigurement. Another doctor finds the report and excitedly reveals it to the current head doctor, only to learn that the Joker left it for everyone to read, since the paper's written by Harley Quinn, and therefore worthless as evidence.

It's even been parodied a bunch of times with other comic supervillains sitting in Joker's place.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_f8e010ce	comment	Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: The Joker is Nihilism Incarnate: he believes that life is pointless and insane, and the only thing anyone can do is give into the madness. Life is a joke, and once he got the joke he never stopped laughing at it. One of the reasons he's obsessed with Batman is because Batman is The Anti-Nihilist: Batman also thinks, to some degree at least, that life is meaningless. But rather than embrace the madness, Batman fights against it, trying to bring order to chaos through his heroic actions. So Batman got the joke too, but he's not laughing, and the Joker doesn't understand why.

Other stories show that he has a solid enough understanding of such varied fields as engineering, computers and even robotics that he can at least hijack the sophisticated inventions of others and use them for his own ends with no difficulty whatsoever, and he is generally implied (though rarely outright stated) to have had a scientific background prior to becoming the Clown Prince of Crime.

The Joker (Comic Book) / int_fdc4fab4	type	Depending on the Writer
The Joker (Comic Book) / int_fdc4fab4	comment	Depending on the Writer: There are many huge variations, the most common and glaring being: Whether he was driven insane or was already insane and became completely bonkers. Where he is on the spectrum between "wacky prankster" and "utterly depraved and sadistic sociopath and murderer". Whether he is a senseless, performative terrorist wreaking havoc for kicks or a deceptively cunning and competent criminal mastermind. Or both. Usually both. He's no Batman, but sometimes he is a proficient hand-to-hand combatant, Knife Nut or marksman, and other times a flimsy wimp who goes down in one punch. In some of the grittier settings, his raw strength, numbness to pain and viciousness are enough to level the playing field with Batman. Whether he actually loves Harley Quinn varies. In the animated series, (where Harley first appeared) the writers have outright said he's a sociopath incapable of loving anyone, and just sees her as a useful mook. Some other works imply he really does love her on some level (although he's usually still an abusive asshole.) He can either be Faux Affably Evil, Laughably Evil, just a Monster Clown, or some combination of the three.
