Jackson Napier

## The Joker

**Jackson** "**Jack**" **Napier**, also known as the "**Joker**", is both a fictional character and antagonist of the *MDC's* *Captain Batman* series created by Joe Simon and Bob Kane. He was a dangerous madman, and Batman's archenemy.

The Clown Prince of Crime was a notoriously warped psychopath, mass murderer, terrorist, and anarchist who inspires chaos. He is unpredictable, manic, bloodthirsty, and capable of twisting even the sanest minds to his warped plans.

He was a dangerous madman who dresses like a clown with white skin, green hair, and red lips with a tendency to wear purple clothing, concealing the true force of chaos and violent crimes underneath his colorful appearance.

Appearing seemingly out of nowhere, his true origins were never discovered. With an aptitude to escape imprisonment and even cheat death on numerous occasions, Joker's battles with the Dark Knight waged on for over one decade.

In all his battles with Batman, Joker was a force of fear and chaos against Batman's fight for safety and order. His weapons include Joker toxin, pistols, nuclear warheads, various joke props and gags, and a sick enjoyment of pain and fear.

"*Take a hint, old boy, we may have had our differences, but you and me, we're made for each other.*"

—Joker, his views on his relationship with Batman.
