The Joker is the main antagonist of the Damned Batman comic series.
He is a somewhat darker and more realistic depiction of the traditional Joker, who is bent on reclaiming his criminal empire alongside Jonny Frost.
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- He sadistically massacres dozens of both fellow gangsters and innocent civilians while rebuilding his criminal empire; his two worst kills are when he:
- Skins Monty (a former henchman) alive just for not keeping a stronghold on the Joker's reputation while he was locked up in Arkham Asylum.
- Murders a random elderly couple in their bed, and then takes a nap on said bed with the couple's blood-covered corpses right underneath him.
- He forces Two-Face and the Penguin to work for him by threatening to feed the latter to a baboon and the former to Killer Croc.
- He stabs one of his own henchmen to death with a broken glass bottle in a fit of anger.
- He rapes Jonny's ex-wife Shelly as punishment for the former nearly selling him out to Two-Face, cruelly taunting the couple afterwards by asking Jonny if it makes them even after telling Croc to drop Shelly off somewhere and give her some money.
- While he was initially somewhat friendly to Jonny, that gets subverted in the end when he hits and shoots him in the chin just for being boring.
- Overall, this is easily one of the most brutally despicable incarnations of the Joker to date, going on a "rape, pillage, and burn" spree in Gotham for his own amusement while also lacking any comedic moments.
Trivia[]
- The graphic novel's author explicitly wanted to make Joker scary again to remind audiences that he's still a total sick monster despite how "cool" or "fun" his chaos can be, and it definitely shows.
