Mixed thoughts! (Issue)
You're right. I bought this, it wasn't bad, but my, was I disappointed when I saw that it wasn't written as a real comic. And Joker looks like a total idiot.

How about White Rider? Or Soul Rider?
I love your character! That's really good... but you need a name for him.
Fantastic video! Oh my, he DOES have class...
You know, even a Mistah J obsessed slug like me, a long time ago, hated the Joker. I liked Harley very much and I knew he was unkind and violent to her. So, I simply hated him. But the question was:why does Harley love a monster like that?
Time passed and I was now more 'attracted' to Joker than to Harls. I still LOVE Harley, but it isn't the same as with Mr.J.
I'm glad that some people agree with me. Here there are the most frequent reasons why fans find him so interesting:
He's the perfect antithesis of Batman. For people who like super evil villains, he's a must.
He's funny. To do a really good Joker, the artist should know that whatever he does, he would chose the funniest action.
He's crazy. He can't ACT crazy, no? But his craziness is...er...likeable, more or less.
Maybe he isn't THAT wrong. He was a poor man desperately searching fo a way out his difficult life, and he fell into a vat of chemicals. When he went out he realized that the substance turned him in a white, green-haired, grinning freak. So, he did the only thing he had left to do: go crazy.
He's yummy. He could be. I mean, the best in this sense is without a doubt Brian Bolland's Joker, in the Killing Joke. His Joker is tall (like 1.90m), thin (but not starved, just naturally lean), sharp dressed (we all know how important are clothes to him. Brian Bolland dresses him up with the colors he adores in a suit that just fits him), teathrical (he's a consumed comedian, he views the world as his stage after all) and feminine. Not QUEER, for god's sake, feminine is another thing. He's graceful. His attitude is delicate. His masculinity isn't aggressive like his fits of anger. He can be fey. His behavior has to reflect it.
Some girls like his hair. That's a good point. His hair is regulary pomaded,but always rebel, like him.
It's the classic fight: godd guys v.s. bad guys. And we know that our Bat will set things right. But the fight against a nemesis isn't that simple. Yes, I'm talking about villains like Lex Luthor, or Dr. Octopus. Superman and Spiderman are still fighiting with them, and-who knows?- maybe they'll never stop. Villains like those are evil and intelligent, and they sure are hard nuts to crack.
But the Joker... yes, he's evil, someone say the Devil in person, but he's on another level.
irst, he's colorful. He has no personality, he can't be tedious, he always changes.
Second, he's likeable, and if not, at least he's funny.
Third, he makes the perfect contrary of the Bat. Batman is so rational, the Joker isn't stupid at all, but he doesn't reasone with common logical schemes.
Maybe... someday Batman will kill the Joker. But it would be such a pity. Even for him, he would lose his better opponent.
This is a topic I like very much to discuss. We all here like superguys, I think. But what if a superhero was 'too super'? I mean, look at Superman. He has X-ray sight, super strength, super speed, and so on, and so on... you know, he's the man who can move plantes, and all that kind of super stuff. He's advantaged. Some superheroes are like families, they always squabble (like Fantastic Four). I like Spiderman, after all he's a timid journalist, and his real enemy is himself, not that -sorry but I have to say it- ridiculous Dr. Octopus, you take his glasses and he's out. Hulk is good too, I like the thing that Robert Bruce Banner turns into a giant green freak when he's angry (unconscious works!).
But my favorite- is the Batman. He's kinda psycho (c'mon a guy that dresses up like a bat with a 15 years old sidekick named Robin), but I like psychopaths. The Bat, who terrifies criminals, who flies relentless under full moonlight. And he doesn't need superpowers! He uses brains and Bat-gadgets only (but they seem to work good!).
And villains. Naturrally, I like Batman ones the most. Dr. Jonathan Crane fascinates me. I'm not only a psycho, but also a psychiatrist, and I'm interested in phobia area. I only don't like Black Mask, because he's too cruel (but that's exactely how he has to be). One of my favorites is The Riddler, he's crazy (and funny! Did you see the third Batman movie with Jim Carrey? Awesome!) and intelligent, which is nearly the same thing. I love Harley Quinn too, the cutest villainess in all Gotham. I have a spine-chill when I think she's crazy and she kills only for love. So cuuute!!!!! And I feel all fuzzy when I think she's crazy about -the one and only- JOKER! Yes, he's my truly fav. The portrait of madness. I admire him, that's all, for his intelligence, his style, his twisted mind...
I think insanity is a power. You can't really kill or torture someone if you're sane. But if you're a psycho, all is less difficult. There are no limits.

Let's see... first you get mad a t Punchinello for posting this... then in another forum I don't remember, after you say that Joel Schumacher is an inept... WELL, MISS ALL-ROUND EXPERT, WHY DON'T WE SEE YOUR SCREENPLAY SO? Forums have been created to talk about something, not to be an excuse for having a row. I'm posting this to make you see that *flutters eyelids sexily* if you don't like this topic... SO GET LOST!"BatgirlBabs says:I'm not here to entertain you, sweetie""Resonate says:You're such a bore ""BatgirlBabs says:Or I can write it however I want to. ""WTF Ban This MHTERFCJKSER now PLEASE, thanks"calm down lol he's just expressing an opinion, somehting you should be perfectly fine to hear. If you dont agree with them, then tell them that and why, just not in an aggressive way xD"
So, in these past few weeks I tried to see if there were fans for all Batman villains. I found very much for Two Face and Catwoman. But, the thing is: is there anyone who find Riddler nice? I mean, are there fans of Riddler like there are of Joker? I find him so interesting. And, my, somoeone that doesn't fight with guns. So, do you like the green guy?

You're such a bore

"WTF Ban This MHTERFCJKSER now PLEASE, thanks"Hey gal, cheer up! Or I'd rather say Batman is a perfect queer? C'mon, a grown man dressed as a bat working hand in hand with a 14 years old poof in bright tights? MY GOD! Now I feel free!I put my hnd up, Punchinello.
Joker cheats and that's what makes him a winner. In a hand to hand fight he uses his gadgets too... so Batsy would pick up his teeth with a broken arm. Mr J wins.

"Ralph says:You really sure? Well, yes, but Ivy always tries to put Harls against her Puddin'. And to me the plant girl is a bit stuck-up. And we know Mistah J is the BEST."Yes, they have to! I think that DC is forgetting who Harley really IS. She's the Joker's henchgirl, his pumpkin pie, and I think his heart. He loves her, after all, and Harley isn't Harley if she doesn't love her Puddin'. Well, and if DC doesn't want to give Harls back to Mr J... well, more for me (hihihi... sigh...)! However... PUT HER BACK IN HER PUDDIN'S ARMS, DC! "There you go! Someone on here with SOME SENSE! Harley Quinn NEEDS the JOKER! SHE NEEDS HIM! Damn DC is messing with their characters! The Joker is fine without Harley, but it doesn't work the other way around. Well, Harley Quinn stories are also good when she's with Ivy."
Punchinello says:
"In which story arc did this take place in? I mean, the 'amazonian super powers' canon butchering. =( DC, what on earth are you doing to your characters!?"
THIS is a clever guy!! Soemone around with some sense!

"He is appearing right now in salvation run...along with practically every known villain lol"
YOU SEE? YOU SEE??? They're understimating him! God!

"Beastly-Hound says:"Ben 10"who the f@ck is Ben 10?"
Same here. What kind of stupid name is Ben 10?

"This should be in off topic LOCK"
Oh really? That's interesting!!! What does it mean?
Don't laugh, please... some songs and movies.
Like -have you seen the Nighmare before Chrsitmas?- there's a song, Jack's Lament, which is very very sad. And... for films, E.T. (final scene) They make me cry!!!
I was sad very sad when I saw the death of the Joker in an episode of BTAS.
