The clown is widely regarded as one of the greatest villains of all time. Few heroes and villains are more opposed to each other than Batman and Clown, so that it is easy to be considered that they are perfect opponents at the same time. Surprisingly, they are not

The clown was first introduced to the world in 1940; an astonishingly dark character that was diluted a bit in the 1950s. Joker’s advantage returned in the 1970s and eventually went beyond, as Batman’s comic book universe became tougher

Despite his buzz in the Batman series of the 1960s, the clown’s portrayal outside the comic book tends to be more inclined to him, especially since his various film adaptations have consolidated this. A little. This character also created history, when Heath Ledger won an Oscar for his depiction of him in The Dark Knight, an unprecedented superhero movie

Like most comic characters, the character and origin of the clown differs from the media, and he has been recreated many times even in comic books. In general, the most “official” version of a character is the version that exists in the DC canon

Here are the wrong perceptions of everyone about clowns:

10, his white skin is not makeup.

Blame on the movie to provide people with the wrong ideas. The clown version of Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight has white skin and red lips, but they are created with removable makeup

However, although all the details of the story of the origin of the clown are still a mystery, in the DC universe it is generally believed that the character’s skin, “lipstick”, and even his green hair are permanent, which is a chemical-related accident. The result of

9. He doesn’t hate Batman.

The truth about the relationship between the clown and the Batman – it is not based on mutual hatred, in fact, the two sides “need” to prove each other’s purpose

The clown doesn’t actually want to beat Batman permanently, because it will destroy all the fun

8, his real name is officially unknown…

This is a misunderstanding of the clown that has lasted for many years

Although the clown’s past and identity is almost 100% mysterious, including his real name, the 1989 Batman movie shows that he lived his life like a man named Jack Napier before the accident. This made him a criminal clown. With this, many people began to attribute Jack Napier or at least Jack’s name to the role, although most official DC story plots did not confirm this

7 , … his background story is also true.

This is what we know: the clown has happened one thing at some point in his past, a) making him a complete anti-social person, and b) permanently changing his appearance. This is it

Heath Ledger’s clown constantly changing how he got scars is a way of understanding how comic book Joker often changes the details of his past

He even famously said that his past was “multiple choices.”

However, Hollywood doesn’t always like this ambiguity, so we have Tim Burton’s clown and suicide squad clown with deep background stories. We can only assume that the upcoming Joaquin Phoenix movie is completely focused on the clown and will also design some elaborate and meticulous origins for him

6. He is actually not crazy.

The clown is obviously crazy? He has a clown’s gimmick. He seems to have no value in human life, and he does not regret the terrible things he has done

Comic writer Grant Morrison said that the clown actually suffered something called “super sanity.”

From a clinical point of view, several articles and thought articles have been tested from the various psychological characteristics of the clown, and the consensus seems to be that he can’t actually be diagnosed as crazy. Entering here is a bit too complicated, but basically, the clown is mentally and antisocial, but not criminally crazy

5, He knows that Batman is Bruce Wayne.

Tim Burton and Christopher Nolan both have a very strong attitude towards the clown, and the clown prince tries to discover the true identity of Batman

Of course, there must be a little before the clown knows that Batman and Bruce Wayne is the same person, but in most of the character’s comic book versions, he discovers the truth and is quickly fascinated by it

For Batman, when he is not a Batman clown, it doesn’t really make much sense – only Batman will fascinate him. He is not interested in Bruce Wayne’s boring or what he does during the day

4, he has no romantic feelings for Harry Quinn.

Traditional love stories don’t apply to their relationship, the most obvious problem – the clown treats Harry as junk – their “romantic” is also completely one-sided

Of course, he has always been accompanied by love for his selfish purposes, but this is always a game for him

Although there are several alternative episodes of the universe – and of course the movie “Suicide Squad” – involves a clown with a romantic feeling for Harry, but the more standardized version of their relationship suggests that the clown has no actual reality for Harry. Feeling. She is just a subordinate of dirty work

3, he also pursues to play with heroes.

By fighting Batman, the clown looks very popular, and it seems that he won’t bother anyone else. In most cases, this is true – but he will definitely mix it with other heroes in a very important way

The clown has come together with Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Arrow, Lightning, and even Superman on multiple occasions

2, he may actually have some super powers.

Batman fans pointed out that one of the things they liked this character so much is that he is ultimately just an ordinary mortal. At the same time, his biggest enemy is just an ordinary person with regular human weakness

There is a lot of evidence that clowns may actually have super powers

The clown has fallen from a very high altitude, experienced a massive explosion, and similar situations of all types that ordinary people can easily yield – but he has not been hurt

It can be argued that the clown has proved that the spiritual power of darkness is impeccable, which may imply true super power

1. The clown may be “played” by different people.

Since we don’t really know the real name of the clown or anything about his non-clown life, we have reason to think that more than one person plays the role of a clown criminal prince

Three Jokers mini dramas cater to this theory, letting three independent people simultaneously depict a version of the clown

Whenever the clown seems to be completely remodeled in some major way, it is not the existing clown evolution but a new person taking over the identity
