For a smart Caped Crusader you have to go to Fox’s Batman: TAS. The best of the the cartoon Batmen. Followed by either the WB’s continuation or for nostalgia go to the Filmation version from the late ‘60’s that had the voices of Adam West & Burt Ward. Yes I’m a geek, we’ve discussed this before.

Was that the one where he was voiced by Hoss Delgato from Billy and Mandy? All that show ever did was make me really miss Hoss Delgato from Billy and Mandy.....

No, the B:TAS version was voiced by Kevin Conroy, who I always thought did a phenomenal job as both Bats and Bruce. You can check out the scene from Mask of the Phantasam where Bruce is at his parents graves regretting his vow to avenge because he has fallen in love.

wcw43921 Posted December 20, 2021 Report Share Posted December 20, 2021 Well, the Burton/Keaton version of Batman was the only one to take down The Joker permanently. It may not have been intentional, but I doubt he'll lose any sleep over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted December 20, 2021 Report Share Posted December 20, 2021 The Joker is a normal man with an amazing brain and lunacy. I could take down Joker. It doesn't take a special power level to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wcw43921 Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Well, The Joker is supposed to have some substantial fighting skills. In his first appearance he went hand-to-hand with Batman and managed to push him off a bridge into a river. As Batman swam up onto shore he remarked that he finally met someone who could give him a good fight. His appearances in the Diniverse Animated Series have always culminated in some really good fight scenes, especially when he breaks out the razor-edged Joker cards that he throws like shurikens. Now I'm not doubting your fighting skills, but I am saying it would take a trained and experienced fighter to take on The Joker hand-to-hand--especially since I doubt he would fight at all fairly.

Ninja-Bear Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 @wcw43921, I think the Joker’s fighting style is akin to Drunken Kung Fu in that it is very unpredictable. That is what makes it deadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 If we just talk power level, Ben Affleck's Batman has the most oomph. But I would choose Michael Keaton's Batman. Joker being crazy and unpredictable, I believe a crazy unpredictable Batman would be his most effective match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher R Taylor Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 Yeah there's nothing about Joker's personality, background, or skills that make him remotely capable in a fight, its just one of those "because otherwise Batman would wad him up into a ball and throw him in the dumpster" things. Like how fat, out of shape Doc Ock can take a full on punch from Spider-man and keep going instead of dribbling teeth as he slumped to the ground.

Tjack Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 The Joker is one of those guys too crazy to stay down. See the movie Raging Bull, “You never got me down Ray—You never got me down!” He doesn’t seem to feel his own pain (or anybody else’s) and just keeps going no matter what kind of damage he takes. Most people when they have a broken bone are done with the fight. The Joker seems to soak up a broken nose along with cracked ribs every fight. wcw43921 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to work as an EMT and there’s truth to the trope about the mentally challenged being hella strong. Maybe it’s just that they push themselves further than the rest of us do. But it is real and they will bust you up if you’re not really careful. Ninja-Bear and Pattern Ghost 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would not surprise me to learn that The Joker has trained himself in a number of fighting techniques, because of how experienced Batman is as a fighter. Of course, he's nowhere in Batman's league as a fighter, so he makes up for it by cheating. "CHEATING?! It's 'changing the conditions of the test!' Aren't you a Star Trek fan, Batsy?" Generally, people who have underestimated The Joker have come to regret it--especially after the poison works its way through their body and the smile starts to spread across their face.
