I wonder sometimes. He could just act that way because he doesn't won't to go into a real prison, he knows if he acts that way he will just go into Arkham.

What are your thoughts?

I think he is, because Arkham is a h*llhole compared to a normal prison.

Of Course, he's not 'sane' like everyone else, but he's not 'insane,' either. He is 'super-sane' able to place himself objectively in whatever situation with the mindset of taking whatever role is most adventageous to his master plans.

i think the joker is incredibily insane. but what makes him who he is, is the simple fact that he doesn't make apologies for it. he is an unapologetic madman. ...and i wouldn't change a thing

Well said. The Joker's madness is practically a superpower-he can do things other people would simply never think of.

Remember when he tried to patent fish? That's not evil, but it is nutty as a fruitcake.

I'm sure the Joker is insane. I don't think a sane person would be out forcing people into a laughing fit if he was sane. His insane scemes speak for them selves.

I don't believe the Joker is completely insane, he still has a speck of sanity in there.

The is a perfect scene in Batman/Judge Dredd where one of the evil Judges tries to control Joker's mind, but alas it isn't possible to control a mind as insane as his so the evil Judge is rejected access of the Joker's mad mind.

A very psycological point of view but no I do believe the man is truly insane due to the fact that his actions lack moral restraint of any kind and that he seems to do them more for pleasure than for any other reason his greatest pleasure lies in the chaos he creates not in profit or monotery gain.

Puddin'... I mean, Joker isn't sane. Not at all. Come on, a normal person can't kill a 14 years old kid with a crowbar if he's sane. But ya know... mine...er.. our J hasn't got only razor-cards, Smilex, mortal joy buzzers, and acid-squirt flowers. He has his mind. His mind is his most powerful 'gadget'. So, I don't think that even a high intelligent guy like Joker can ACT insane. It's impossible. Hey... could you be sane if you see yourself in a mirror and find yourself looking at a grinning, green-haired, white-skinned freak?

People who aren't insane don't pretend to be. Unless they are trying to stay out of trouble..like pleading insanity to get outta jail.Nobody acts insane to go to jail...time and time again.

He doesn't go to jail? Do you need me to post a scan of him in there?

same thing.It's incarceration.All Batman's villians go there,although many of them aren't actually Insane.Joker is though.He has green hair and wears a purple suit.He wears it everyday.He goes up against Batman even though Batman has proven time and time again that he can't beat him.The Joker is nuts.

I think he's just that insane because he's obsessed with Batman, and whilst he's around, he'll never be sane.
