Joker is my favorite character, and I love the Killing Joke but it always struck me that a failed comedian couldn't possibly have the level of knowledge in chemistry that he does. Batman himself has to come up with cures for his Joker venom. Joker is the anti-batman, he can match the Bat, but would a failed comedian really be able to go toe-to-toe with Bruce Wayne (a polymath I believe)
I especially thought this during The Dark Knight. There is no way a failed comedian could pull off what Ledger's Joker did.
Just some cursory thoughts. What do you guys think
