Joker, Batman's sworn enemies

Perhaps many of us already know the origin story of the bat man, Batman. A costumed hero like bats and always in action at night fight crime in Gotham City, while during the day he became a famous millionaire by the name of Bruce Wayne. Well, of course we were also already know Batman's enemies, such as the Penguin, Two-Face, Bane, The Riddler, Catwoman and Mr. Freeze. However, my post will discuss the eternal enemy of Batman very famous. THE JOKER !.

The figure Joker first appeared in a comic story about 70 years ago, and since that time have appeared alongside Batman Joker through TV shows, cartoons and the big screen and Video Games. Even so we only know the figure of the Joker as a psychopathic clown that is the main enemy of Batman as well as the expertise to plan the perfect crime and able to influence anyone he wants. But only limited to these.

Joker character has been deliberately vague with various stories about the origin along-man bat. Joker also has a lot of different characters depicting the madness, not to mention the sinister appearance that deliberately disguised in clown figure. If for motivation, for a Joker has always remained the same, namely to focus on the chaos and anarchism.

Over the last 70 years, a series of changes made to the Joker character, that possibility is also not yet known. Most of us just recall the figure of the actor Heath Ledger Joker is currently playing the character of this crazy. Joker but not only that, he could be a clown, sometimes he becomes the victim, it can even become criminals who participated eradicate crime.

Here are 10 things we do not know of a "JOKER":

10. Never cooperate with Carnage

Spiderman and Batman is one example of the merger of two superhero comic of two different companies. But it turned out to be incorporated in a series of stories. But we know that the city of New York in Marvel comics as well as the city of Gotham is in DC Comic never "met". Setting these two towns were able to bring together two villain is the Joker and Carnage. Both were never told to cooperate in a comic strip. Told that the Joker and Carnage initially Psychiatric Hospital patients who are undergoing rehabilitation experiment. Their heads are then fitted with a chip to prevent them crazy. But that does not work, because they can finally escape the influence of the chip. Once free of the influence of the chip, then Carnage Joker freed from a prison cell, and the two of them, and spread terror and crime in the city, waiting for Batman and Spiderman came to stop them.

9. Against Judge Dredd

We leave the action momentarily Joker and Carnage. This time the action Joker in the Batman comics / Judge Dredd, which is told Joker syndrome died laughing. Spirit Joker then jump into the portal between the dimensions of time turned out to move the soul of Gotham City heading to another world in the future called Mega City One. There then his spirit pervades a member of The Dark Judge. Perhaps no one yet knows if the Judge Dark is a group of evil judges that the main enemy of the hero Judge Dredd. Turns out the evil nature of the Joker as desired by the main enemy Judge Dredd, who was named Judge Death. Joker then appointed a member of the fifth Dark Judge. Fortunately the Joker was the original body in the city of Gotham, so he was not really raising hell in the city.

Joker then figure out how to master the other members of The Dark Judge, until in the end he managed to master all the members of The Dark Judge and make them invincible forces, plus he changed the face of them to be like the Joker. The mouth of the members of Dark Judge smiled broadly so as to resemble the Joker plus their sinister laughter. Not to mention they have a new force, where laughter they were able to blow up the head of those who hear. But all that ended, when Batman accidentally thrown into the dimension of time to the city of Mega City One, and along with them the Judge Dredd quell crime Joker The Dark Judge leadership.

8. Beloved Joker was originally born via TV cartoons

Harley Quinn may be quite mad, why? Because he chose to change his appearance as lover and the greatest enemy of Batman, The Joker !. Since he appeared in several animated series, Harley Quinn then also appeared in many films Batman in recent years. His performance even beat the figures Poison Ivy, which actually se level with the Joker. Although it has become an icon in the Batman comics, but we know that the first Harley Quinn did not show up for a comic.

Dr. Harleen Quinzel debut as a private therapist physician who eventually became lovers Joker in the Batman animated TV series in the '90s. Starting from the TV series and the character of Harley Quinn is increasingly recognized and first appeared in a comic titled "No Man's Land". In the comics told of Gotham City who has just experienced the earthquake, resulting in Gotham isolated from nearby towns. Joker at that time controlled the town and success after he met with Harley Quinn after successfully killing the wife of Jim Gordon.

7. Joker almost died

Although the Joker is the mortal enemy of Batman and become number one villain in the comics, but he was told almost died in the comic first. At the beginning of his appearance in the comics The Dark Knight, the Joker turns more often told the victims of violence, which at that time still undeniably comic themes of murder and violence, even Batman only then still use the weapon in action.

Joker character first appeared in Batman # 1 comic in the 1940s, and died in the comic narrated the next series. On the last page of the comic that shows the Joker who've lost trying to commit suicide by stabbing himself while Batman and Robin leave. Most of the criminals future Batman comic first appeared, deliberately made to appear once, but eventually the editor Whitney Ellsworth feel the affection for evil characters thrown away. So the story of the end of last comic rewritten, and tells the villain who seems to be dead ended up living back in the next series.

6. Joker Actually not a killer

Actually in the beginning created the figure of the Joker as a comic character and far from being a ruthless killer, to the point when it was told never Batman against the Joker with a deadly weapon. With fun characters that make the murder scene in the comic to be reduced. Turns It did not escape from the rules that applied to the days of the latest comic where comics with many scenes of violence will be banned in the bookstore. It makes comics Joker at the time it was made No Sex, no less polite language and certainly without violence.

Unlike the Joker character modern-day, rather than making the Joker as a madman who can kill many people, the prince Clown evil instead spent 20 years with committing robbery witty involving the circus where the action: bringing hordes of clown into the Bank only to show their silly action. Another reason why at that time the Joker made a little "polite" because of concerns arise also if a serial killer like the Joker always escape it will drop the prestige of Batman, but this time it did not matter anymore.

5. Had gone for a decade

What about who can "turn off" the Joker figure ?. What we are interested if a class clown Joker works just wandering ngerjain people ?. But what can we do, that's why did the clown. Joker so unattractive so Batman enemy if it works just nosy and do not do the crime. Throughout the 50s, the Joker character less raised and only a "supporting actor" for Batman enemies such as The Penguin, until in 1964 the Joker totally eliminated in the Batman comics editor Julius Schwartz and it lasted for almost ten years.

We may only know that the character of the Joker was in the "rest" and does not appear in the comics since the period 1964 to 1973. In fact, the famous actor, Cesar Romero, who had played the Joker in a TV series, not quite successfully raised the Joker character. In the end, Dennis O'neil and Neal Adams overhauled Joker character and display it in a story titled "The Joker's Five Way Revenge", where the Joker becomes an insane killer who kills his victims with the usual tricks, and it became the Joker character until today.

4. The cast of The Joker

In addition, played by actors of the 70s, Romero. The Joker apparently quite successfully portrayed by some veteran Hollywood actor, call it Jack Nicholson, who plays the Joker with thick white makeup powder, in the Batman movie directed by Tim Burton. The late Heath Ledger is considered the most successful actor who plays the Joker figure, besides the last actor who plays this character in the film from director Christopher Nolan, The Dark Knight. Turns out the movie Star Wars actor Mark Hamill, also briefly played the Joker, though only as a voice actor on the animated series and its Video Game.

Only a few series at a glance shows the action of the Joker, and even then only in the form of serial Spin-off only. In the comic entitled "The Birds of Prey" which tells the trio actions supporting female superhero Batman, as Huntress, Black Canary, and the former Batgirl, Barbara Gordon, who hand in hand against crime. The story of this later inspired a television series of the same title, in which Batman appears only briefly at the beginning of the episode against The Joker, played by Roger Stoneburner.

3. Joker is always action comedy

Despite their diverse changes in the character of the Joker for several years, including a redesign of costume in the comics, TV series and other media, but there are some things that remain the same from the Joker, namely green hair, makeup style clown, big smile scary, costume purple, as well as the psychopathic character. One more thing to mention that the Joker always be The Joker (comedian).

But the fact Joker once appeared not to figure as we know, that in the animated television series, in which the Joker changing appearances, including at present the figure of another villain, The Riddler. In the animation series, Joker has the appearance of another, namely wearing green dress model "monkey" which has to do. Joker in the series also looks more radical and consistent with his character as a comedian.

2. Reasons for not appearing in the movie "The Dark Knight Rises"

Yag experienced the tragic death of actor Heath Ledger was very influential on the appearance of The Joker in the third Batman movie directed by Christopher Nolan. Had also broke the news that The Joker will be raised again in the movie The Dark Knight Rises. Success Ledger played the Joker is crazy, making these characters is planned to be the main villain in the movie The Dark Knight Rises, but because of the tragedy, the figure of the Joker was replaced by another villain, Bane (played by Tom Hardy).

We already know the reason Joker does not appear in The Dark Knight Rises, besides no one is able to portray her as good as Heath Ledger's Joker. But not showing the Joker in The Dark Knight Rises is never explained in the film. In fact, the official novel The Dark Knight Rises, is told the reason why the Joker did not appear. Narrated after what happened to Harvey Dent / Two Face, all criminals and prisoners transferred from Arkham Asylum (asylum) to Blackgate. Except Joker, who are allowed to remain in prison and was not released by Bane.

1. Batman always had a chance to kill the Joker

One thing that still baffles of a feud between Batman and the Joker is Batman always let the Joker escapes. At first, such a scenario is considered pretty good, which just beat up Batman Joker, saying he never killed anyone in the era of the 50s. But this time, when the Joker told manages to escape from prison Arkham and started killing as they please, there is no excuse for not to kill Batman Joker forever. But why until today Joker is still alive ?.

The reason for that is because Batman did not want to violate his oath not to kill, although the reasons are not good considering the number of victims of murders committed by the Joker. However Batman is a comic about a wealthy man who is crazy enough to be Batman at night to combat crime, so it would be great if the Joker is still alive.

Joker also always trying to finish his eternal enemy, Batman. Even been told that the Joker managed to trap and kill Batman, but Batman was not killed at the time, Bruce Wayne survived but suffered serious injuries on his face so that he had to do plastic surgery, back normal life and certainly back into Batman to fight crime.
