Why the fuck is the Joker immune to the Fear Toxin?
>>
>>144668408
He's CUH-RAYYY-ZY.
>>
Batman is often portrayed as immune due to standard willpower/embracing his fears, so the same reason
That or poison immunity, which Joker’s delonstrated before

He's moved beyond fear obviously. Though it varies from writer to writer.
Morrison wrote a flashback issue where silver age Joker intentionally decided to get high on fear gas and this is what broke him and turned him into the murderous bronze age Joker, flipping immediately. This killed the fear in him.

fpbp, its like power creep
>>
he finds his fears funny
>>
>>144668408
he's based
>>
>>144668408
This was like peak glaze age for the joker.
>>
>>144668408
Cuz he's already insane and doesn't feel actual fear. Or maybe his joker toxin also has a bit of it in there so he's by default already innoculated
>>
>>144668408
Joker’s thing is he got mindbroken by tragedy
Making the world seem worse just gives him a powerup
>>
His chin gives his power to defy gravity... and fear.
>>
he's got some level of toxin resistance since he tests his own gas. Same reason why he can withstand Red Skull's farts
>>
>>144668408
He already lives in constant terror of the day Batman snaps and rapes him
>>
>>144668408
He already lives in constant terror of the thought Batman will never snap and rape him

This
I figured he would protect himself against his own laughing gas and the Scarecrow’s toxin is similar enough that it didn’t work either
>>
>>144668408
Mithridatism? He's also a toxins guy.
>>
>>144668408
The Joker has been experimenting with toxins, gasses, and poisons and using them on himself for so long he's developed an immunity to a lot of shit.
>>
>>144668421
the only right answer should be that Joker developed a resistance to it due to his own toxins. any answer saying he "doesn't feel fear anymore" or how he's "so crazy that a fear gas wouldn't change anything" is retarded
>>
>>144668408
Fear of what, dying?
Lmao

Morrison's theory of supersanity is that he reinvents his personality every day in response to new stimuli. He felt fear and then reorganized his mind to become immune to it.
