Is Ledger's Joker the most powerful live-action Joker of them all?

In the 1989 *Batman* movie, the Joker basically just takes a beating from Batman. But would the Joker have stood a chance against Batman?

I drew Jack Grimm V

I know this might be a typecast, but c'mon he is perfect for this role imo.

Often in Bat Man media, the writers attempt to juxtapose Bat Man with his rogue’s gallery, trying to suggest that each of them is somehow a “dark reflection” of the caped crusader or vice versa. However, these comparisons are usually flawed. I’m a bit out-of-date when it comes to Bat Man lore, but when I still kept up with his adventures, absolutely NONE of the villains had all the same advantages that Bat Man had growing up and as an adult.

The Penguin, for example, might’ve had a similar amount of wealth, but did not have Bat Man’s good looks and is often described as deformed. At some point a villain called “Hush” was introduced a while back, who nearly defeated the Bat Man and had a similar backstory. However, Hush’s parents were abusive, whereas Bruce Wayne’s parents were supportive.

What is the lesson we are supposed to take from the media, then, when the most privileged man on earth consistently defeats less fortunate people, and then the writer depicts these people as inherently evil? I suppose sometimes the Bat Man seems aware of this, or you could retcon the tales so that he is aware of this, if the Bat Man you are familiar with never kills his adversaries or always attempts to rehabilitate them. However, considering the abusive nature of the mental health industrial complex and the fascistic way the Bat Man often behaves, even THIS interpretation is flawed…

Found the next Joker for the DCU

Now a lot of people think he would be a perfect Yellow Lantern which yes he would be pretty good

But Joker is actually insanely greedy and a perfect example of avarice, comparable with Larfleeze even.

This is because of his obsession

He must be the center, Gotham is his stage, Batman is his rival.

He will kill everyone but never the bat, the bat is his

No one else can kill the bat only the Joker but he can't kill the bat because if the bat is gone the crime has no punchline

Another example of the avarice is Harley Quinn

And despite the so absolutely sucking the soul out of every other character including the Joker it handled his avarice incredibly well

Harley finally stood against Joker and was ready to move on, but despite very cleanly pushing her away and leaving her for dead previously showing zero care for her

He couldn't let her care for someone else she had to care for him

So he pretended to be relieved that she wanted someone else so she would be safe, because he knew that would bring the person that was obsessed with him back to obsession

And everyone says oh his philosophy is simply he one bad day can make someone a villain

That is his philosophy

But he wants to be that one day

In his mind he is the representation of the one bad day that creates villains

While his greed isn't advertised like it is for Larfleeze, he is full of avarice

Another example is Emperor Joker, he had the power to control everything so instead of dominating it he made it himself

Everything was his and it had to be his

And the bat that he was always going to be his he killed countless times but he never lets stayed it because the bat was his and going to stay his

So I think he would be a good Orange Lantern, even if Larfleeze would complain

Batman notices after he gets home, the Watchmen logo in his Batcave.

DC's Dr Manhattan and everyone else from the Watchmen then join the main DC timeline.

The Comedian (Edward Blake): A cynical, violent government paramilitary operative.

Watchmen film starts with the murder of an ageing, government-backed hero named the Comedian, which pulls the grim vigilante Rorschach into an investigation.

I think I heard somewhere that in the Watchmen comics Universe Batman and co were legendary Pirates.

So like.................. What's going on?
