The Joker' s true backstory has intact
to this day, never been finalised, with multiple it
orgins stories all existing with varying credibility
including 'Batman Black and White' of 2002
where the Joker was the leading crime boss as
well as 'Batman Confidential' s 2007 origins of the
Joker being a depressed and suicidal career i
criminal.
The most widely accepted orgins story tor the Joker is Alan Moore' s
1988, The Killin Joke, in which the Joker an unnamed engineer who
K .% ' quits his job at a chemical company to
someome "
miserably. Desperate to support his preg
T , nant wife Jeannie, he agrees to guide two criminals
5 " through the chemical plant he previously worked at so
T that they can rob the card company next door. During the
It planning, the police inform him that his wife has
died in a household accident. The engi, eer
tries to withdraw from the plan, but he
A criminals force him into keeping his
commitment to them.
At the plant, the criminals make him wear a special
mask for the engineer to become the infamous Red Hood.
Unknown to the engineer, the criminals plan to use this
disguise to implicate their accomplice as the
mastermind and to divert attention away from
themselves. Once inside, they run into security
personnel, and a shootout ensues. The
criminals are gunned down and the
engineer finds himself confronted by /
Batman, who is investigating the
disturbance. Terrified of the Batman,
the into the chemical 9
plant' s sewage system to escape Batman,
and is swept through a pipe leading to the outside.
Once outside, he discovers, to his horror,
that the chemicals have permanently
bleached his skin , stained his
I _ 4, _ lips and dyed his hair bright
tta " green. This disfigurement, combined with
it the man' s misfortunes of that one day, drives
him completely insane .
r that the joker is one of. if not the best villain in history
k across all mediums of art. Personally. Batman comics
are the greatest of the medium and his villains are too. so
expect them to occur more frequently than most villains of
other heroes or comics.
