This is actually my favorite Joker Such a fresh and interesting take on the character while still being The Joker. Something I don't think we'll see in a while He's probably the loudest and most energetic out of all of them. He really feels like he's having fun with this. The voice by Kevin Michael Richardson is also incredible. He's one of the best voice actors out there IMO
I agree on Richardson, he is incredible ❤️ And yea, shows how flexible of a character Joker is! I think DC doesn't want to admit it, but this Joker influenced a lot of future variants
I never understood the hate on this Joker, I mean they tried to do something different for a change and gave us a nice variant of the character, very original design. And my favorite thing, he does look like a clown. In most of his new appearences he doesn't really resemble a clown but rather a "creepy clown" However he is creepy by himself, his looks should be very bright and clown like.
"A man walked into a bar, and said...OW!!!" -Batman One of the reasons why I love this version of Batman, he can crack jokes that makes Joker laugh so genuinely
What's not to like: crappy design, looks nothing like Joker, what's up with the Stoopid sleeves and dread-like hair? Or his shoes, I guess the lack there of actually, or his red eyes, or his weird fingerless gloves. He sounds almost nothing like the Joker, sounds and looks more like a character from Ben 10 works for the Freak Show crew.
The Batman was the first Batman show I watched as a kid and the Joker was always my favorite character (literally I would not watch the episode if he wasn’t in it). Love to see it all come full circle almost 2 decades later :)
I know this Joker isn’t CANONICALLY black, but Kevin Micheal Richardson puts so much new life into him that I still consider him the only Black Joker. And come on bro, just look at his spiky dreads!
@@iamthelunareclipse5183 Dude, just cause he's voiced by a black voice actor doesn't make him Black anything. That's really ridiculous to believe that.
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 He's not even that ugly to me, his design just seems so fun! Ugly Joker in my opinion is Arkham Origins Joker, he looks like he has skin cancer and he's so realistic. 🤢
Terry McGinnis (Batman Beyond): So you fell into a tank of acid, got your skin bleached and decided to become a super villain? What, you couldn't get work as rodeo clown?
Kevin Michael Richardson is so underrated as this iteration of the Joker. Hamill is a legend, John Dimaggio is fantastic but KMR is fucking sinister in this incarnation.
OH MY GOSH YES. Besides Arkham Origins Joker and Telltale Season 1's John Doe this guy is my all time favorite. My simpage for this guy is too strong. Dang, Zaly. You've been serving up all the juice. Favorite Joker Interpretations 1. Arkham Origins Joker 2. The Batman 2004 Joker 3. Dark Knight Trilogy's Joker 4. John Doe Season 1
I like how you specified that you like Telltale Joker only from the first season XD Same here honestly. Arkham Origins Joker is the most "Jokery" Joker imo. Like, he may not be the best (I think he's my most favourite one too), but he's the most true to the concept of Joker
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 👌 With Origins Joker, everything from his design and animations to the surrealism of his flashbacks make every scene he's in so fascinating. The devs for that game did a phenomenal job.
@@themeddler7806 And don't forget his personality, that's my most favourite thing about him 😌 And also his hair, there's something about his hair that's so fab I don't know how to describe it XD
@@themeddler7806 Truly, just everything about him clicks! And he didn't even have to betray his comic book origins for that, like the live action ones did for an example
I swear to God that "I was feeling a bit screw loose so I...checked myself in" gets me every time. Don't even get me started on the "My card" bit! Amazing videos btw!
The fact that they decided to use 'The Killing Joke' as just a glimpse of this particular Jokers backstory(and how it shaped him, to what we learn about him from here on out) says alot.
This is honestly my absolute FAVORITE adaptation of the Joker, he feels like an actual clown, I can picture him being in a Circus. His crimes are absurd and nonsensical, he can actually fight, his voice is perfect, his Jester hat hair, he is in my opinion peak Joker and no Joker before or since can surpass him IMO.
This show was truly for all ages. Like, everybody keeps praising TAS. TAS was incredibly mature, while this one was more wacky, but still stimulating enough even for an adult. Like, it just doesn't get boring!
2:48 It just occurred to me that "The Laughing Fish" story must have happened in this universe between the pilot and Joker's second appearance in season 1.
Joker maybe a deranged psychopath with a sick sense of humour and displays that menacing grin but he is not stupid. He is highly intelligent who enjoys causing mayhem just to get Batman to show up, mess him around and give him the runaround.
The entirety of the 2004 The Batman was great, especially with the villians. With your masterful use of editing, you should look into Poison Ivy or Catwoman. You do'em justice.
Haha, Catwoman was cool (besides her design), Poison Ivy was kiiinda.... well, she was different :D In a neutral way I suppose. Thanks for the compliment! Definitely would like to do more edits of this show one day
I love the touch on giving him a straight jacket. Literally looks like he's so accustomed to being locked up that it became his defined fashion with long hair. Some complain this Joker looks very inhuman with the red eyes, giant grin, and jumping around like a monkey, but that's why I like about this version. The less human Joker is, the scarier he is. (Sorry Joaquin.) It helps this version stand out from the other depictions of Joker where he's very clean-cut and sleek. Also, his sleeves made me realize they are a lot of spirals on this show with some of costume designs. This Joker looks more like a Tim Burton character than the actual Tim Burton Joker. (Who would've thought.)
10:20 I honestly don't understand why people don't just look. Away. Like it's easy; tilt your head down, Avert your eyes so you're not staring at the center (cause ig staring at the center is what does it) like they can't actually force you to stare at it lmao
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 lol true, you right. I would hate to shatter the poor clowns heart if I were to ruin his fun that just wouldn't be something I'd do 🥲
God, I forgot the “I never play with a full deck” punchline and set up. They really did a fantastic design and style for this joker. Really love how they add he’s a physical threat in such an unorthodox fighting style. Only thing missing is dancing between strikes
I genuinely do put Kevin Michael Richardson in the same league as Mark Hamill in terms of VA'd Joker performances. It's Joker through and through, but with a spin on it that's completely his own.
This show was my introduction to Batman and thus this was my first Joker. So you can imagine my shock when I learned later how “unique” this Joker was compared to literally all of the other ones.
IM REWATCHING UR VIDS FOR THIS LOVABLE CHAOTIC GOOFBALL! Also this show’s underrated asf. Ur also right about the references. I think average viewers tend to overlook this show due to it’s uniqueness, when it actually pays a lot of homage to many great works of art before it. Dialogue, writing, cast crew, and everything about it makes it one of my fav cartoons ever (just wish they added two face and scarecrow. Can’t have Batman without those two imo)
2:18 gotta say, your reaction fit kinda well, i kinda thought that was joker saying it for a moment cause that is something he would have said edit 1 - the "wooooooo" caught me off guard, that was PERFECT in time with joker
The notoriety of this joker truly bodes to some pretty manic levels of troubles that even batman can't escape the feeling but to be a bro for life even tho he's ready to kick the living shit out of him. But you can't blame, every fist he throws is simply a bro fist for every confrontation. Love the way you sync your enthralling sense of humour love. I can't believe its now 10k subs and believe me you have me motivated to really keep seeing and loving everything you do all the way. Where there is a heart in me, I'm no fool for letting it pump in every present moment it meets you my tiger💖💖💖🥰imaginative choreograph had me there and nag never are you annoying when your narration just tickles every fibre of smile hun💓 Gotta truly have it at RUclips for really boasting there superiority over such copyright claims even for a little harmless fun these days.
Glad I'm not being annoying XD I calmed it down in the second part. I can't believe the 10K subs either, are those all your alt accounts? XD Tell me about it. RUclips isn't what is used to be. Internet isn't what it used to be. Life isn't what it used to be. I'm going through an existencial crisis D:
This is definitely my favorite joker and seeing videos of him makes me so happy, and what makes me super happy is your positive comments about Kevin because he is the voice of my childhood and I grew up mainly with his joker ❤
This joker is that variation of a character that goes way out of the original formula, but still works. This joker on paper would sound like it’s doomed to fail, but holds up despite going against what is established.
I have a lot of fond memories of this series It isn't perfect mind you, as I feel some villains were underused, and one of the later seasons was clearly meant to set off spin offs for other DC cartoons in this style But it was still a great cartoon for its unique interpretations and designs of various batman characters and Villains Even had some original creations here and there The art style is a big highlight for me too, that and the original opening theme
New adaptations of the Joker can learn quite a bit from this version. Instead of trying ridiculously hard to be a scary murder clown trope, or whatever Phoenix and Leto were doing, maybe making him a genuinely funny and wacky clown but his ways of showing it get innocent people hurt or killed would be a nice change of pace.
When I first saw 5:15 I thought you edited the audio for the flute, then I binge watched the whole show and was laughing when I realized that was the actual audio from the show :D
I'm on the fucking floor dude..thank you for this I also don't think your annoying if anything I like your commentary because for some reason without it I feel alone but not speaking for everyone of course :)
-I don't need you in my card collection! >:D *I NEVER PLAY WITH A **_FULL DECK! >:(_* I will always adore this series' joker for his ability to change his voice's pitch, right down to having two _completely_ different laughs back to back. He's so good.
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 SO MUUUUCH I really, really, really enjoy your channel for bringing awareness to his utter greatness. I've been rewatching this animated series originally because I love its second opening (the instrumental spy-inspired one), but that freakin' Joker is one serious highlight for me.
@@twaggytheatricks4960 Oh yes, I haven't even mentioned the opening! The bat squeaks, sublte piano and just that "the Batmaaaaan" at the end.... that always gave me chills when I was little :D
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 Ah, yes! Now, I _think_ that one is the first opening (At least there were two separate ones on TV when I followed it), and what I really like about that one is pretty much everything you just described. It's so... _eerie._ In all the best ways.
I love this joker so much. His mannerisms, his movements, his laugh. But what I think is most interesting to me is his combat. Normally, The Joker isn’t a physical threat, more of a mental opponent for Batman, but this Jester can throw out some good hits, he’s an absolute menace, a brand new take, but still very worthy of the Joker name. He will always be tied with Hamil for my favourite animated Joker, maybe even a bit better.
everything about this ver of joker is just immaculate 👌, his facial expression’s, his hand gestures, his outfit designs (in and out if arkum) his body language, its just peak character design, and his voice actor ties it all together in the prettiest fucking bow. kagillion/10, im giving his character designer the sloppiest head
@@rainbowcharms4026 Yesyes, like it exists in its own bubble. If Joker was the only one who looked weird, it wouldn't work, but everybody is, and thus your brain accepts is XD
This is one of Favorite Joker Variants they made, The Design alone with the Hair that it resembles the Buffon Hat from the Joker Card and the Acrobatic and The whole Gadgets of his own which really makes this Joker a Very Unique one that people don't see how this Joker takes a whole new level with that Terrifying Face of his on this show even the VA Richardson did an Amazing Job at it and also The Music on this Show has an absolute banger Guitar notes just like Spectacular Spider-Man series and i love it.
Is it bad that I find this joker cute? And I don't mean attractive, I mean, like puppy or kitten cute, especially with those oversized sleeves of his. That just makes him look 10x more adorable
Im super late but thanks so much! I cant watch the show, and I've heard really positive things about this version of the joker, and wanted to see it for myself! I appreciate the minimal edits, and I also like your commentary!
This is my favourite Joker in concept and design. He reminds me to the crepeer a lot. He's kind of an acrobatic superhuman who I can see realistically pose a thread to batman. He's the opposite of Mark Hamill imo, completely derivative from the source material. But he's still great
Thank you so much for this video!! I've always been curious about this show and never been able to watch it, it's so nice to have it with your wonderful commentary :) It's easy to see how much work and research this took and how passionate you are, I'm almost happy I get to watch this directly with your editing! Also, this show seems so good... The animation, the voicing, the ideas! Keep it up and thanks 💚💜 Edit I'll admit I don't ALWAYS get the jokes though, Joker's voice is not the easiest for a non native speaker :/ Edit 2 I never realized how Joker with a beret was a THING XD thank you for the references!
Glad you don't mind the commentary XD I would rather post the clips without any, but you know, RUclips XD I'll keep it up, I'm planning on covering the whole show and the movie too - if RUclips will let me xd Yeah, not to mention a lot of his verbal quirks are references to other media, mostly American media, that no one else understands XD But if you'll ever be too confused, tell me and I'll try my best to transcript it!
This series didn’t air on TV when I was younger so I sadly missed out on this Joker version but I was planning on watching the series soon enough though
I love your videos! I'm curious about how all the animated Jokers would look like in real life and this one would definitely look wild.
You just gave me a motivation to draw this Joker in a realistic way
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 That's great! I'd love to see it.
@@anakerendoofenshmertz9985 You would? I mean, I guess I would too, that would be something to see XD Alright, I'll start working on it!

Really??
One of my favorites is Arkham origins Joker 😂
Ok Charboose or should I say Batsy.... we know you love Joker
It may be an reference to those circus monkey that play the music box for coins.
Same, these are the version i grew up with. Childhood ❤
4:29 This Joker doesn't have shy in his vocabulary and I'm here for it.
Joker is generally a very open person XD I like to believe he's like Salvador Dali - he's public about it so people don't dig into his personal life
Heath Ledger's Joker actually did something like this before scenes as a way to get in character.
This is actually my favorite Joker
Such a fresh and interesting take on the character while still being The Joker. Something I don't think we'll see in a while
He's probably the loudest and most energetic out of all of them. He really feels like he's having fun with this.

I agree on Richardson, he is incredible ❤️ And yea, shows how flexible of a character Joker is! I think DC doesn't want to admit it, but this Joker influenced a lot of future variants
I used to call this joker "The acrobat"
"The Laughing Bat" was basically what happens when your boyfriend starts wearing your shirts in public
I hope yt won't shadowban this video XD But you're right

Good point! Joker never really looks like a clown per say, rather a... fruity punk goth? :D
I guess it’s the voice ?
I used to watch this show and my mom found this Joker too scary as it was made for kids. So, the answer is concerned parenting.
His design looks way better than the 90s redesign of the Batman series
His design is way better
I feel the same way. Sure he’s more punch-happy than the usual portrayals but he still has the core elements that make the CHR who he is
"A man walked into a bar, and said...OW!!!"

One of the reasons why I love this version of Batman, he can crack jokes that makes Joker laugh so genuinely
whats not to love about this joker? he's a riot in this show
Every character is :D But he brings a certain chaotic energy into it, his episodes are always a blast to watch

Tell me about it. RUclips isn't what is used to be. Internet isn't what it used to be. Life isn't what it used to be. I'm going through an existencial crisis D:
7:02 Joker (The Batman 2004): I HATE MACARONI AND CHEESE!
I wish we had more Joker's like this. Someone whose on par with the Batman in every way, even physically.
This is definitely my favorite joker and seeing videos of him makes me so happy, and what makes me super happy is your positive comments about Kevin because he is the voice of my childhood and I grew up mainly with his joker ❤
This joker is that variation of a character that goes way out of the original formula, but still works. This joker on paper would sound like it’s doomed to fail, but holds up despite going against what is established.
This was fantastic to watch 🥰 yay for bars and Joker
Glad you liked this clipshow haha 😃
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 I'm glad you made this wonderful clip show 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
@@thumbwrestler12 I'm glad you've watched it XD
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 yay for being glad but really happy I got to watch XP
@@thumbwrestler12 Hope you'll watch the future episodes too XD
"I was feeling a bit screw loose so I, checked myself in."
Love that opening line. Because it so perfectly describes the Jokers character.
3:34
Well it was either Joker's buggy or Harley Quinn or both (give buggy two seats and problem solved) .
I have a lot of fond memories of this series
It isn't perfect mind you, as I feel some villains were underused, and one of the later seasons was clearly meant to set off spin offs for other DC cartoons in this style
But it was still a great cartoon for its unique interpretations and designs of various batman characters and Villains
Even had some original creations here and there
The art style is a big highlight for me too, that and the original opening theme
2:20 that clip made me holler its 3 am oh god
2:13-2:21 This is art, Mr White!
But seriously tho, putting this two exactly together is genius. Props man!
if we ever get another big Batman Animated show, I want this man to be The Joker. Kevin Michael Richardson is basically perfect for the role.
It's always been my personal head canon that this Joker is just Principal Lewis from American Dad! whenever he goes full Nutso.
The delivery on "I never play with a full deck." I love KMR
This was the joker that actually scared me and the smiles on the victims are just horrifying
Thank you. Thank you so much. I love him so so much I’ve been looking for compilations I’m crying thank you so much
And this is only 4 episodes so far! Well, 3, I'll see if something can be done about.... THAT episode
‘That episode’ hmMmmmMm
@@ablackdovedraws The episode whos name must not be spoken
Ok also is it just me or is joker with wet hair in the first episode the most adorable thing Omg
@@ablackdovedraws His hair physics in this cartoon are always adorable XD
New adaptations of the Joker can learn quite a bit from this version. Instead of trying ridiculously hard to be a scary murder clown trope, or whatever Phoenix and Leto were doing, maybe making him a genuinely funny and wacky clown but his ways of showing it get innocent people hurt or killed would be a nice change of pace.
This is honestly, still my favorite incarnation of the joker.
10:05 Is that me of does there a little cracking sound? While he turns his head with "breaking bones" line.
Yea there is a little crack when Joker turns his head.
When I first saw 5:15 I thought you edited the audio for the flute, then I binge watched the whole show and was laughing when I realized that was the actual audio from the show :D
I'm on the fucking floor dude..thank you for this I also don't think your annoying if anything I like your commentary because for some reason without it I feel alone but not speaking for everyone of course :)
Haha, a lot of people tell me that, that they feel like they're having a discussion with someone :D I appreciate that!
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 But seriously I'm looking forward to seeing part two :)
@@cbomber4879 Part 2 is halfway done! I want to get it out as quickly as possible:D
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 YES YES YES
@@cbomber4879 OwO
Hope yt won't cause any more problems with the second one
I like this video so much! The most underrated Joker 😍
Simple truth 👌Glad you liked the vid!
7:19 Just Batman sitting like Spider-Man, which is kinda cool since Unlimited and PS1 Spidey and this Batman are voiced by Rino Romano.
omg thank you thank you!!
the batman 2004 series are soooo underrated
Truly, I'm glad that nowadays the series is getting the recognition it deserves
-I don't need you in my card collection! >:D *I NEVER PLAY WITH A **_FULL DECK! >:(_*
I will always adore this series' joker for his ability to change his voice's pitch, right down to having two _completely_ different laughs back to back. He's so good.
HE'S SO GOOD! He's known for being the Joker with the deep voice, but honestly, look at how much his pitch changes!
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 SO MUUUUCH
I really, really, really enjoy your channel for bringing awareness to his utter greatness. I've been rewatching this animated series originally because I love its second opening (the instrumental spy-inspired one), but that freakin' Joker is one serious highlight for me.
@@twaggytheatricks4960 Oh yes, I haven't even mentioned the opening! The bat squeaks, sublte piano and just that "the Batmaaaaan" at the end.... that always gave me chills when I was little :D
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 Ah, yes! Now, I _think_ that one is the first opening (At least there were two separate ones on TV when I followed it), and what I really like about that one is pretty much everything you just described.
It's so... _eerie._ In all the best ways.
@@twaggytheatricks4960 Yesyes, each season had its own opening
I love this joker so much. His mannerisms, his movements, his laugh. But what I think is most interesting to me is his combat. Normally, The Joker isn’t a physical threat, more of a mental opponent for Batman, but this Jester can throw out some good hits, he’s an absolute menace, a brand new take, but still very worthy of the Joker name. He will always be tied with Hamil for my favourite animated Joker, maybe even a bit better.
13:02 Joker: uh oh 😰
Batman: Say cheese (PUNCH!!)
6:25 was expecting " welcome to mad House Batman" 😅
"I don't need you on my card collection. I never play with a full deck!"
this gotta be one of my favourite joker phrases ever
Batman never hardly laughs but his laugh scared Harley in the BTAS episode, " Mad Love". It even echoed since it was so loud!
The Joker Gas thing used to freak me out a bit when I was younger.
Yeah, this show was suprisingly graphic about it! The victims I mean
everything about this ver of joker is just immaculate 👌, his facial expression’s, his hand gestures, his outfit designs (in and out if arkum) his body language, its just peak character design, and his voice actor ties it all together in the prettiest fucking bow. kagillion/10, im giving his character designer the sloppiest head
One of the coolest jokers to ever, I love his design💜 tho I guess they end up changing it
I love the show's designs in general - even when they miss, I appreciate the uniqueness
Same it feels nice and glossy if that makes sense lol
@@rainbowcharms4026 Yesyes, like it exists in its own bubble. If Joker was the only one who looked weird, it wouldn't work, but everybody is, and thus your brain accepts is XD
This is one of Favorite Joker Variants they made, The Design alone with the Hair that it resembles the Buffon Hat from the Joker Card and the Acrobatic and The whole Gadgets of his own which really makes this Joker a Very Unique one that people don't see how this Joker takes a whole new level with that Terrifying Face of his on this show even the VA Richardson did an Amazing Job at it and also The Music on this Show has an absolute banger Guitar notes just like Spectacular Spider-Man series and i love it.
Is it bad that I find this joker cute? And I don't mean attractive, I mean, like puppy or kitten cute, especially with those oversized sleeves of his. That just makes him look 10x more adorable
Love how beastial this joker is he move more unhinged and fights like a beast
Im super late but thanks so much! I cant watch the show, and I've heard really positive things about this version of the joker, and wanted to see it for myself! I appreciate the minimal edits, and I also like your commentary!
This is my favourite Joker in concept and design. He reminds me to the crepeer a lot. He's kind of an acrobatic superhuman who I can see realistically pose a thread to batman.
He's the opposite of Mark Hamill imo, completely derivative from the source material. But he's still great
Love his character design sm and personally
So do I
I love this! Thank you ❤️
Ahah, you're welcome!
I nick-named this joker “palm tree hair joker” or just “palm tree hair”
Thank you so much for this video!! I've always been curious about this show and never been able to watch it, it's so nice to have it with your wonderful commentary :)
It's easy to see how much work and research this took and how passionate you are, I'm almost happy I get to watch this directly with your editing!
Also, this show seems so good... The animation, the voicing, the ideas! Keep it up and thanks 💚💜
Edit I'll admit I don't ALWAYS get the jokes though, Joker's voice is not the easiest for a non native speaker :/
Edit 2 I never realized how Joker with a beret was a THING XD thank you for the references!
Glad you don't mind the commentary XD I would rather post the clips without any, but you know, RUclips XD
I'll keep it up, I'm planning on covering the whole show and the movie too - if RUclips will let me xd
Yeah, not to mention a lot of his verbal quirks are references to other media, mostly American media, that no one else understands XD But if you'll ever be too confused, tell me and I'll try my best to transcript it!
6:22-6:30 6:46-6:51 His signature music makes me love Joker even more. Why can't I find an instrumental version anywhere??
New video yayyyy! Thank you✨💖
No problemo! I hope RUclips will be kind to me when it comes to the rest of this series... it hasn't been so far XD
8:15 best Joker entrance ever! 😆👍
This series didn’t air on TV when I was younger so I sadly missed out on this Joker version but I was planning on watching the series soon enough though
Haha, hope this video was a good motivation to watch it then!
@@zalybrainlessgenius503 The vid really is my wake up call
This show is so underrated
