I absolutely hate how this joker was forgotten. As a kid I grew up with the batman animated series joker Mark Hamill's iconic laugh will forever be the number one best joker but this literation of The Joker is also there in my list he is the perfect blend of psycho evil and humor. His design was absolutely perfect and his voice just sent shivers down my spine every time he would speak. The monkey style Kung Fu he uses to fight Batman constantly had my eyes glue to the screen. I just hope that this design is at least referenced or brought back in the future! Edit: Whoa over 1000 likes?! I did not expect that thank you all so much for the love!
Ikr? Mark Hamill IS the Joker but Kevin Michael Richardson’s no slouch. You can tell he just pours himself into the character with every single line and every maniacal laugh. Plus I just love how this design plays into the insanity aspect. Before this, Joker usually presented himself as almost dapper yet still mad. This one looks so monstrous in comparison and I can’t get enough of this design. Plus on the subject of those kung Fu moves, Joker would usually rely on his tools and weapons in a fight. Here? He’s got the skills AND the gadgets! I do wish they kept the straight jacket look from the first episode. Would’ve made this Joker stand out even more.
This Joker's acrobatic fighting skills like he just came out of a circus is the best logic for such a character. He actually seems dangerous in a fight.
One of the reasons I love this Batman series is because they actually make the Villains who usually rely on Henchmen actually fight Batman hand-to-hand, and not to mention how they LEGITIMATELY can kick ass, Hell even PENGUIN can go toe-to-toe with Batman and he even once had the upper hand against him before.

The crazy thing is even though this isn't as disturbing as the killing joke, unlike the killing joke, Joker actually suceeds in his goal in this version. Even though in the killing joke he puts Comishinor Gordon through hell, he is still a normal man at the end of the graphic novel. Here after this bad experience Ethan get the Joker Pudddy on him, gets suspended, and becomes clayface. Even though Ethan got better later on, Ethans time as Clayface is an example of The Joker winning.
Still my favorite Joker. Consistently written. Charming yet terrifying. Vicious but patient. The embodiment of the standard I use to measure all versions of Joker. It's very surprising who lives up to that standard and who doesn't.

This is my favourite joker! Mark Hamill is the best joker but Kevin Michael Richardson’s is an alternative to a new level. Every time he laughs I love it!
Joker: Now why are you here? Because y'all done me wrong! Wigzy, you sent me to life in the loony bin. Detectives, you arrested me, shame on you. Bagley, how many times do I have to tell you, I HATE MACARONI AND CHEESE! LMFAO This incarnation of Joker is probably the most insane.
The design, the voice, the Kung Fu. The bizarre humor, the truly random crimes... The brief moments of reflection, the purely confrontational relationship with Batman, that neverless came off as dark and obsessive... This was and always will be my Joker, a genuine disturbed character. His relationship with the supporting characters is just the icing on the cake.
random crimes bit I really like ever since Dark Knight every version of Joker tries to have some "point" about the nature of man, about anarchy, about the cruel indifference of the universe, about the hypocrisy of the system, etc but this Joker? he just does shit because he finds it amusing, there's no higher motive, no warped lesson he's trying to impart, he just does stuff to have fun
This Animated series was the first Batman series I'd ever seen when I was younger. Honestly, this is my favorite Animated Joker variant ever! He creeped me out so, so badly when I was a kid, and I just find him so cool!! This is the best-animated version of him and you can't change my mind!
This is my favourite Joker, it kinda shows how this Joker is not that weak like in the other shows and one of his fighting skills looks like a Monkey Kung Fu like style cause he uses his feet as dexterously as his hands
I really like how every villain in this series have got a little more sinister and devil-ish look, making them more menacing... Especially Joker, now he actualy looks like a living clown doll and it's FREAKING AWSOME!!!
And the fact that they decided to use that specific one as a glimpse into this particular Jokers backstory(and how it shaped him, with whatever we learn about him from then on) says alot.
He's also known for voicing tough guys from some other shows for kids, especially for voicing Bulkhead from Transformers Prime and in Transformers robots in disguise too.
Kevin Micheal Richardson is like the Gary Chalk (Optimus Prime during the early 2000s just like this Mr. J funnily enough) of Joker VAs He may not be the first and most popular voice actor of an iconic character, but his interpretation carries a great new take on the voice while keeping the energy of what makes the original voice great, making them my favorite personally
I never knew that Kevin Michael Richardson,one of my all time Favorite Actors Voiced one of my Favorite Joker and I love this Version while being Unique amongst the Rest and is much better than whatever that Batwoman Abomination was.
This Joker is probably the most deranged I have seen it is as if he was summoned in the Berserker class in the holy grail war I hope there are some typemoon fans who get the reference
I loved this version of the Joker. He managed to balance menacing aspects of the character, but still make him a fun clown. His acrobatics and movements were like a wild animal, adding the unpredictability of the Joker. His design was new yet refreshing and leaned more into his psychotic nature. Lastly, his voice and laugh were on point. Kevin Michael Richardson did an amazing job and you can tell he had fun with this.
I think it's my favorite real bad guy Joker. I love lego joker in the games and lego joker in the movie, but they feel more like hardcore prankster than real bad guy. And I don't like the others because they doesn't make jokes much and more genocide for proving how bad the society is. But this Joker, he found the balance! He's funny, crazy, dangerous, care about the batman a little, isn't scared to kill but it's not his main goal and he's 100% a stoner. That's the real modern bad guy Joker!
To be honest I don't care if the Jokers voice is Mark Hamills or not, I just like the way the people design the Joker differently. I would be completely nervous if he was talking to me
He may not be Mark Hamill's Joker But damn I enjoy watching and listening to him and his madness I wish he'd make a comeback Even if it's in a comic I can tell Kevin Michael Richardson had alot of fun voicing this joker
You just gotta love Kevin Michael Richardson,He did an Outstanding Job voicing this underrated version of Joker and not to mention his Fighting Style got me some inspiration for one of my Sonic OCs. Man I really wish that The Batman 2004 continued.
Ok. I'm going to say it. You may agree or disagree with me, I don't give a steaming pile of Joker Fish. Screw current Joker; Screw portraying Joker as 10 steps ahead of everyone. Screw making it seem like anyone like Croc or Freeze would just go along with Joker. Screw having Joker do things to seem crazy like cutting his own face off and using it as a mask. Screw trying to add mystery to Joker and somehow making three of him exist at the same time! THIS Joker, THIS is actually intimidating!
"You really think I'd send a flunky to eliminate my favorite sparring partner? I reserve that pleasure for me alone!" That's definitely a core Joker trait right there.

I think I read somewhere that Mark Hamill loved this portrayal because it was so unique
Speaking of the monkey style kung-fu Joker does, it makes me wonder if he took lessons or was self-taught.
This Joker has the greatest lines of any Joker ever.

I wouldn't mind Kevin Michael Richardson returning as The Joker. 😊
Definitely!! I’ve wished he would reprise it one day.
Yes. But this time he should played by John Dimaggio.
Truly the most underrated version of the joker

I like to think Greg Weisman (who wrote this episode) looked at that line and said, “I could do something with that.” Hence the season 2 episode, “Strange Minds”.
That was a good one. RPM and Seconds were also up there
This is honestly one of my all time favorite incarnations of the Joker! this version of him is so much more badass and insane i love it!!!
Definitely mine too!!
Yeah, all Jokers could fight but this one actually was a threat in combat to batman himself.

That intro was the best way to avoid COPPA.

This was and always will be my Joker, a genuine disturbed character.

random crimes bit I really like
ever since Dark Knight every version of Joker tries to have some "point" about the nature of man, about anarchy, about the cruel indifference of the universe, about the hypocrisy of the system, etc

I adored his fighting style in this show
Im hearing small cues of Shredder from the 2012 TMNT. And i absolutely love it. God i wish i liked this show more when i was younger
They’re voiced by the same voice actor.
If Joker couldnt be Joker, he could be the bat, and if he couldnt be the bat, he could be the Shredder
This Animated series was the first Batman series I'd ever seen when I was younger. Honestly, this is my favorite Animated Joker variant ever! He creeped me out so, so badly when I was a kid, and I just find him so cool!! This is the best-animated version of him and you can't change my mind!
He's mine too.
And they say the joker can’t fight, well this one can
That's why this is the best version ever.
And with Shaolin Monkey Style Kung Fu no less
I think this is the only version of Joker that can fight Batman.
This is my favourite Joker, it kinda shows how this Joker is not that weak like in the other shows and one of his fighting skills looks like a Monkey Kung Fu like style cause he uses his feet as dexterously as his hands
7:10 the origin of the Joker will always be one of the greatest
All it takes is just one rotten day to transform a normal man into a MONSTER.

He wore shoes in one episode that would make him as tall as a building.

@@NicholasVetter-sy8io I love that episode. The Clayface arch of The Batman was the show at its peak.

He's no Mark Hamill, but MAN is he entertaining!
Kevin Michael Richardson voiced this Joker.
Is this the only time a black man has played The Joker? He did a fantastic job
I mean, Mark Hamill loved this portrayal. I'd say KMR is just as good.
If they ever make an animated Dark Knights movie, Kevin Micheal Richardson would be perfect for The Batman Who Laughs!
7:09 Now that's how you make a Killing Joke reference

@@CopeGaming129before the movie yes but not before the comic, The comic is from 1988

7:17 killing joke reference
He's kind of right
This is one of my favorite Jokers for a couple of reasons a fun reinvention, can actully put up a decent fight and he's actually funny sometimes
This Joker is probably the most deranged I have seen it is as if he was summoned in the Berserker class in the holy grail war
I hope there are some typemoon fans who get the reference
Mephistopheles wants his Caster class back
"I was feeling a bit screw loose, so I..., checked myself in."
That's the most interesting opening statement I've heard from the Joker.

The Joker is a looney...but...he's a happy looney.
Just as Mark Hamill will forever be the quintessential "Gaster Joker", Kevin Micheal Richardson's is the quintessential "Clown prince of crime"
That was the version of the Joker that made me fall in love with him. Literally. I was 4.
When I watch him become a vampire in the movie that was the only time I feared a joker
I grew up watching the 1990s Batman animated series just started watching this series a few years ago this joker is just as good as hamils

This too me is one of the scariest jokers his voice his look and his parkour and fighting skills make him terrifying too me at least as a kid
My man joker is acrobatic fighter, a marvel fight game with all of the villain in this comic would be per er fect
I agree with Joker, Bosses make terrific tormentors especially Chief Rojas
Love how Joker is like: you have batman at gun point in front of me!? I'm OFFENDED!!!
i like this show because batman is always getting his ass handed to him by the villains and yet he always outsmarts them in the end.
He the only joker who uses unique fighting style
I grew up with this joker. I remember all these scenes.
"You really think I'd send a flunky to eliminate my favorite sparring partner? I reserve that pleasure for me alone!"
That's definitely a core Joker trait right there.
I lov how scrungly this joker is, like a roach
“I won’t break your bones, detective. I’m going to snap your twig.”
This Joker was my absolute favourite, on the same level of the Hamill one.
But this had style, was more mad, more artistic! Love it!
Joker is Batman's Arch Nemesis from The Batman 2004
I know it's sacrilege but like his voice is absolutely my favourite. He sounds like he is having such a good time with every evil deed
3:03 I NEVER PLAY WITH A FULL DECK! HEHEHEHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!!!!
Okay, for the whole two seasons of this show, I watched. I though this was Keith David, but it was Kevin Micheal Richardson.
