The Joker - Tumblr Posts
D'vorah, welcoming the new guest kombatants: would you like something to drink?
D'vorah, after opening the fridge: we have water, milk, juice, spiders, dr pepper-
Terminator: spiders?
D'vorah, holding a spider nest: spiders it is then.
Terminator: no, that wasn't-
The joker: it's a bit too late. She's already pooring us a tall glass of spiders.
Spawn: oh my God, why are there so many spiders!? Ahh- the room is then filled with spiders
I'm having 4am opinions apparently
I feel like what most MCU movies and/or Disney shows lack nowadays is good comprehension of the villains unless they're shows about the villains, especially in genres like superhero movies. Thought of this ranking system today that might help explain what I mean with four examples. It's an axis between menace and scale.
Dr. Doofenshmirtz (Phineas and Ferb count as superheroes, right??)
low menace, low scale.
Doof is comic relief for a reason: everyone knows he's not going to succeed and doesn't have any really evil schemes (much to his chagrin) like killing or even hurting anyone. His menace is for petty vengeance at best. And he doesn't aspire to take over more than the tri-state area, and doesn't think or plan much beyond his latest inator.
The Joker
high menace, low scale
Now before the comic junkies come after me, I know there are multiple variations of the Joker for which this might not be true, but most versions I've seen align with this. Joker is the bad guy in every sense of the word. He's toxic and sadistic, killing without thought. No doubt he's menacing. But he's low scale because he, like Doofenshmirtz, rarely plots beyond the next scheme or betrayal, and keeps his mayhem to the confines of Gotham City. He's a crime lord, not going for world domination, but he's well written and scary, which makes him such a classic villain.
Thanos
high menace, high scale
Thanos brings the big guns to every fight and challenges literally all of the avengers at once, which few villains can boast of. His scale is undeniable and catastrophic, not only global but universal in the MCU. Dusting half of the population of, well, everything, is a pretty big goal to shoot for. He's also fairly menacing, with the earlier post-credits scenes featuring him in the shadows and literally everything to do with Gamora and the methods he uses to take the Infinity Stones. Some people argue he's too weak or too OP, which makes me think he's pretty well balanced.
Hades
low menace, high scale
Hades from Hercules is the last example in this analysis, ik it's a kids movie so OF COURSE the villains will be less menacing but the guy is also iconic and funny and relatable. Intends to destroy the gods and Hercules, but is more disposed to bargaining like a car salesman than overt cruelty. That said, his plan does involve full Olympian destruction so he's got plenty of scale. These kinds of characters are a little less common, so harder to define, but can be very effective if written correctly.
I think Disney/MCU stuff lately has veered more towards too sympathetic villains with a ton of power or too cruel villains with not enough power. a proper supervillain has a balance of both, and I wouldn't mind seeing a few more of the high menace/low scale villains, or, even better, low menace/high scale villains who are a bit out of their league. comment with any thoughts and where you think other villains fit on the chart :)

joel kinnaman as the joker on hallowed ground.

WIP - done on the plane home from visiting SCAD!

So Iโm kinda obsessed with the Joker right nowโฆ
So, to continue this:
โ Gothamโ
The city has basically turned into a free for all arena between:
Old mafia families (To capture the Joker for their leaders)
Red Hood
The batfam-1 (To capture the Joker for Jason)
Batman (He, himself is not quite sure what he is trying to do)
A couple of rogues (Ivy, Harley, Mr.Freze, etc.)
Jonh Constantine (This little shit wants to piss hell [and the rest of the supernatural] off even more by getting away)
Deadshot (An easy way out, might even get to hang out with his doughter)
The Church (It's a CRUSADE!)
And finally Jack and Maddie Fenton, who feel like they have to atone for what the have done to their sweet little boy.
Oh, and Jazz is also there to make sure that the Joker stays dead after everyone is done with him.
So the city is in an Almost total state of chaos, vigilanties and mercenaries prowling and jumping between rooftops, mafia families and goons on every street and alleyway. A church mob (complet with crosses, torches and pitchforks on every main road) A trashcan magician popping in and out at random throughout the city. A tall, amazonian like woman with red hair leaning on walls and sings, sighing walking away and then doing it again carring a wicked looking techno pistol. And the Fenton couple in their tank like abomination tearing trough the streets.
(Everybody is making sure not to harm innocents otherwise what's the point of the pardon. Plus god is watching.)
All this while the Joker cowers in fear in a swear deep beneath Gotham, terrorized by the shades of his past victims.

Ok, so Danny rules all afterlifes, and being the clown hating little shit he is goes:
โSky goes green over Gothamโ
"Listen and hear this Royall decree!"
"I, Phantom, God-King of all afterlifes hearby say"
"That as long as your crimes do not exceed his, and you are willing to repent,"
"So long as you kill the Joker, all your sins will be absolved and you will be granted entry into your Heaven of choice!"
Jason-*Sheds a tear* Fuck yeah! *Fist bump*
Harley-*Evil grin*
Ivy-*Evil grin... but in green*
The rest of the bafamily-"Does this mean-"
Batman-"No"
The rest of the bafamily-"But God said so!"
John 'Fuck my life' Constantine-"I need a drink.... Who emptied all the pubs!?" (By bad luck he just happened to be in Gotham)
The rest of Gotham-*Party! Umptz! Umptz!* (Also emptied all the pubs)
The Joker-"Uh oh..."
Danny 'Fuck that clown in particular' Phantom-*Literally splits his head in two like a nightmare cheshire cat grinning*
-Prompt-
Danny gets his hatred of clowns from his mother, who has taken a kill on sight vow on the Joker for murdering her father (Walker). Walker has the same vow as Maddie, because the Joker has taken him away from his daughter.
Que Phantom, tierd of both of their shit.
He picks up both Maddie and Walker by the nape of their necks like feral overgrown kittens, flies both of the to Gotham, drops the right in front of Arkham, shoves ecto riffles in their hands and goes-
Phantom:"There! Now, go work your issues out," and points towards the gates "Happy Hunting! I want his knees on my mantle when you get back!" He then proceedes to do a loopty-loop as he flies away.
This just popped into my head!
-Prompt-
Danny is in Gotham, and he had a long day at work and just wants some of his ecto gum. He reaches into his pocket but can't seem to find it.
So, he reaches again, this time that long reaches with the other arm (you know the one you do when something's stuck inside your pocket).
He absolutely doesn't notice when his hand fazes trough him, nor does he noticed that the "gum" he snatched was in fact not gum at all, but the soul of a clown that was sneaking behind a Wayne looking kid. So, he chews and a moment later he spits it out and throws it behind him, feeling remorseful and sorry for himself for eating rotten gum.
The "gum" lands back into the body of the quite shocked Joker. He jumped into the abyss and it spat him out in disgust. Later he will start feeling the same feelings Danny had felt, remorseful and apologetic.
Doctor Harleen Quinzel, because there is no way she is gonna remain Harely Quinn after what she just saw; Stares in horror and shock (and quite frankly an absurd amount of glee and amusement) at the kid who just plucked the Joker soul (because tha ball of shining dark light could only be a soul) chewed it out and quickly spat it back out (quite a lot cleaner, might she add) and threw it away like one of her hyenas after Ivy forced fed them vegetables as punishment for misbehaving.
By god she has a story the people at the bar are not going to belive for a week or so. You didn't need a doctorate to see that what just happened shook the Joker quite a bit. And she didn't even get to use her BATbat, awww....
Meanwhile Danny is completely oblivious to what he just did.

New Suicide Squad Trailer got me like! Harley Quinn gif by your truly <3

Artist: unknown

Where does one begin when talking about Troy Baker? Not only is he one of the most talented, dynamic, and powerful voice actors of our time, but, he's also a musician, who plays in the Silent Hill band. He has lent his voice to some of the most notable anime, cartoon, and video game characters of our time, giving life to two of the most riveting, provocative characters of our age, Booker DeWitt (Bioshock Infinite) and Joel (The Last of Us). In a Golden Age of beautiful storytelling in video games, Troy has woven together real, flawed, complex characters, bringing to life a whole new tapestry of storytelling. It's as if Troy has added beautiful colour and pattern to video games, which had only been spun together in black and white before him. He is truly remarkable, and truly talented. Happy Birthday, Troy Baker. Sorry I'm late (his birthday is April 1st, 1976). You definitely don't look 38. I'll never bash April Fool's Day again. Whether or not you're a vampire, you'll always have the last laugh on April Fool's day, because, honestly, you're possibly immortal. Whether or not that's true physically, you've been immortalised in your amazing work. Thank you a thousand times over for sharing your gifts with us, the fans. We're forever indebted to you. Thank you, Troy Baker, and, Happy Birthday!

This comic nerd is so looking forward to The Dark Knight Rises. By what I heard Christopher Nolan is following the comics and if you don`t follow them I`m not to spoil it for you. I am disappointed that I heard ( don`t know if it is true ) that the joker isn`t going to be in the movie. I understand that why there wont be but come on. The Joker was the star of the The Dark Knight ( sorry Christian Bale ) so can you not bring back the Joker? You replace the actor that played rachel so why not the Joker? But I do have faith that The Dark Knight Rises will be an awesome movie. I just hate that I did have to wait so long to see but I know it will be worth it.ย
I wish DC had more Batman Beyond movie content.
What if I just want to see Tim get shook around.
It doesn't even have to be "beyond" I want to see the actual effects of his trauma. How the others reacted to him trying to recover. The permanent scars behaviorally shouldn't be ignored. Please DC I'm begging you. I want silly clown based trauma content.

Its taken me so long to actually draw Tim Drake as Joker Jr. Gosh please dc I am BEGGING for this timeline to be remembered. I don't need the actual clown i need the trauma. Joker? NO. Joker jr trauma timeline? Yes >:-)
" One thing you will never forget is the taste of chemical waste in your mouth. The incessant burning, bubbling on the tip of your tongue. The ache sinks into the skin past the muscle and into the nerves, pulsing with new energy something so different then how life tastes in any other context. Like you swallow the fire, bite the lightning and kiss the thunderstormโs skin. How it beautifully detangles the folds of your mind like a ball of yarn, turning it from pink into a muddy green and red. Like mold.ย
Itโs something I will never forget. Itโs something I canโt forget. The sour green bubbles in the viscous wetness behind my eyelids, pours from my spit. It is engrained to the very atom of my being, and it's beautiful."
I love writing, not because its fun, but because it's beautiful. I love writing pieces like this because i can take a piece of a character and make it taste like anything I want.
No it was Zattana and some mud.
Killer Moth got pregnant first then it was joker and now itโs killer croc
