>he's The Joker, so he's like an evil clown that tells jokes and kills people>and of course he's also very fashionable I never got that part of the character
I think it comes from the character still having the same fashion style he had in the 1940s when the character was conceived. In the 40s everyone wore a suit. These days not even rich people wear suits, billionaires wear like business casual at best in public. The Joker now still wearing a suit makes him stand out and seem like he has a unique fashion sense.
>is a notorious psychopath who holds no allegiances to anyone and will betray everyone who works with him on a whim and if they do work with him they are 100% guaranteed to run into Batman at some point, who will brutalize them with a merciless beat down - if the Joker doesn't kill them for a laugh first>literally has zero problem finding goons and hired helpTurns out capeshit is actually really fucking stupid.
Jeromeposting is always a good time
Half of Batman's rogue gallery was like this. The other half were the ones with supernatural powers or gimmicks, which Joker isn't other than apparently having toon survival powers.

>>222315323Joker is an expert in like 500 different fields. His pranks and stunts require mastery of everything from chemistry to explosives to basically every kind of engineering. Depending on the writer Joker is as smart as Batman basically and capable of almost anything.

>>222315346Yes, but that's not any more supernatural than Law Abiding Citizen guy. It's not a suit that keeps you alive after you've been frozen in LN2 or becoming part plant or being a big guy.
>>222315300youre right which is why they need to go back to burton styling and dick tracy where its not trying to exist in the real world
>>222315301Isn't this guy a Star Wars now?
>>222315301Cameron Monaghan is hugely underrated
>>222315242GOTHAM suckedbut Burton's Batman and the 60s show got him right: artist, chemist, fashion
>>222315375My boy Cal Kestis
>>222315404It was litty
Men wore suits in the 1930sThe Joker is also gay
>>222315458This fucking tacobender really couldn't just shave his mustache?
>>222315471Not for $1200 an episode
>>222315458Joker is straight and he is rawdogging Harley every night
I sort of forgot this show existed when the Mad Hatter and bald Shield man showed up. Is it worth finishing? I had watched all of it until then and legit just forgot to watch any more for some reason.
>>222315611It only got shitty when Bane showed up, so you can watch it until then
>>222315712Oh shit, I forgot about her and what happened to her after the show ended. Brutal.
>>222315737Thats lili simmons, she played catwoman in the time skip finale
>>222315764I was wondering why she looked so hot in that pic.
>>222315242The original Joker was pretty much a mobster with makeup before he became the boner master.
>>222315404>artistThis is the core that ties it all together.Movie/TV Joker is an artist at heart, he's trying to send a message. A message to Batman. A message to Gotham. It's always about HOW he does his crimes, rather than the crimes themselves. And his clothing is part of it.This can be seen in the Nolan films, in the 60s Batman, in the Burton Batman.
>>222315471>This fucking tacobender really couldn't just shave his mustache?People literally could not notice through the blurry ass RF signal on their shitty-ass 60s TV sets
>>222315361Nicholson is the Chad Joker. The rest are incels. Except for Romero, who's a sigma.
>>222315242He's not actually fashionable at all. For a good while it was pretty consistent that his fashion sense would be at least two decades out of date, so in the 40s comics and BTAS he wore 20s fashion.
>>222315379No. He's fine in pictures. The moment he starts "acting" you see his shortcomings: he misunderstands the text. Emphasises the wrong parts, understresses the important words. Overemotes when he shouldn't and has a flat tone of voice most of the time... Except when he should.There is a reason why he isn't bigger than he is in hollywood. And that reason is he is not a good actor. Giving the Kubrick Stare doesn't make you one.
>>222315300Comics wise, working for Joker is super high risk, but he pays ludicrously well for henchmen.Compared to someone like Penguin, who pays much less but is super chill unless you offend him personally.
>>222316601>He's not actually fashionable at all.True. BUT he tries to be a fashionista.Hacks like the Riddler and Penguin were posers.
>>222316928Riddler also looks sharp in Gotham
>>222315242He's fabulous. Remember when the dark Knight returns was voiced in the style of Paul Lynd
>>222317016He's trying too hard
>>222315242Most of high society people are fashionable in the city named Gotham. The entire "rich" part of the city is Art Deco incarnated. More than that - Joker is actually NOT fashionable - on behalf of being a mockery he is THE weakest part of the city fashion-wise. It is just that today modernity looks so bleak, dull and often ugly, that even Joker looks like fucking Adonis clothed by Hugo Boss himself in comparison.
>>222316712>he pays ludicrously well for henchmen.With what? Joker bitcoins and nfts? 99% of his time is spent fucking with Batman.
>>222315471It's part of the joke
