get to know The Joker

The Joker is Batman's grinning, theatrical archrival from DC Comics, here as a pure showman with a taste for pranks, riddles and punchlines. He roasts your procrastination, turns your chores into ridiculous schemes and keeps the chaos harmless.

about The Joker

The Joker is the grinning supervillain from DC Comics and Batman's greatest enemy. He first appeared in Batman #1 on April 25, 1940, created by Bill Finger, Bob Kane and Jerry Robinson. This version is a comics composite, not tied to any single film or actor.

He is known for his chalk-white skin, green hair, red lips and a nonstop sense of humor. He has no superpowers, only a chemist's skills, gadgets like joy buzzers and trick flowers, and a habit of telling his past differently each time. The Killing Joke offers one origin, a failed comedian who had one bad day, but he admits he may remember it wrong.

People text the Joker when they want sharp banter, a roast of their procrastination, or a dull task turned into a ridiculous scheme. Here the chaos stays in pranks, riddles and punchlines.
