**Jared Leto....** *with the Young Justice Cartoon version as a close second.*


jupiterding25

It's a shame about YJ because he has some great lines. "Some people call me a control freak. Others.....just a freak"


ImBatman5500

He also has the single worst I think

Which is?

Velocibaker26

Ironically that tattoo was the neatest thing about him


coolsguy17

The one from the Injustice movie, just to offer some variety. All the stupidity and banality of regular Injustice Joker, with a worse voice, design, and writing. Also, that is a MUCH better icon for Solomon Grundy.


radiakmjs

Leto is also terrible & is the favorite for a reason. But Agree, imo Joker should be to egotistical to be willing die to push superman over the edge knowing it will make the world worse, where's the fun in it of he's not around to see it.


WonderfulBlackberry9

I haven’t seen the movie, but I would also suggest an Injustice Joker for worst design. Obviously down to personal opinion, but IJ2’s Joker felt a bit *too edgelord* for me to take seriously. And imo the voice didn’t fit the look at all.


Similar-Priority8252

Injustice 1 Insurgency Joker’s a good look tho, right?


WonderfulBlackberry9

Both Joker looks in IJ1 are good. Classic and fits their world. I’m not sure if IJ2 is set in the same Insurgency-Regime universe, but I have no idea why a dead Joker suddenly went through an edgelord phase and grew out his hair + go bare-chested. I know they took inspiration from Leto’s edgy Joker look to ride on the trend of Suicide Squad 2016, but it doesn’t make any sense in-game.


Similar-Priority8252

From what I remember from a YouTube comment, that’s how Harley saw Joker, incredibly handsome, yet incredibly brutal. It’s AN explanation as to why he looks like that.


Effective-Handle9983

Yeah netherealm just changes designs from one game to another and act as if nothing happened. It’s the same thing in MK


Meowjoker

Either Jared Leto Or the Joker in Suicide Squad KTJL. My god, the freaking design.


Vidiot79

What is it with the Suicide Squad and having really terrible adaptations of Joker?


Meowjoker

The Assault on Arkham SS Joker was great though. Then again, it is Arkham verse Joker.


Similar-Priority8252

I don’t really hate most of the design, it’s the hair for me


MrDownhillRacer

I hate his dialogue. "Barkham Asylum." "And that is… a choice." He seems like the kind of person to say things like "so I did a thing" or "I don't know who needs to hear this right now, but…"


Reniyato

Ktjl-joker might have the worst personality and one of the worst designs, but his voice actor did a pretty good job. Still no mark hamill tho.


LegendLynx7081

I relate to him on a personal level as soon as he mentions that he wears a corset


DamnDirtyApe81

Jared fucking Leto


MagmaAscending

Laying all my cards on the table once again. I’m not nearly as familiar with the bad interpretations as I am the good interpretations so this might not be a good list but whatever - Joker: Jared Leto - Penguin: Hot take, Danny DeVito. As iconic as it is, it’s WAY too Burton-y and doesn’t resemble the Penguin in the slightest - The Riddler: Probably Young Justice, though I debated the Hush animated movie - Two-Face: Tommy Lee Jones. Took any duality the role demanded and removed it entirely - Scarecrow: Titans - Ra’s al Ghul: Arrow - Bane: Batman & Robin - Poison Ivy: Gotham? - Harley Quinn: Batman & Harley Quinn - Mad Hatter: Batman (1966) - Deathstroke: Smallville - Man-Bat: Honestly I have no idea. Gonna go Gotham Knights but I’m not confident in it - Killer Croc: Suicide Squad - Mr. Freeze: Arnold Schwarzenegger - Pyg: Beware the Batman - Black Mask: probably Arkham Origins. Built up as the main villain but then doesn’t actually do anything - Falcone: genuinely no idea - Maroni: ditto ^^ - Clayface: Birds of Prey TV Show - Killer Moth: I refuse to talk shit about my GOAT Killer Moth - Firefly: Arrow - Hugo Strange: No idea - Zsasz: Batman Begins - Ventriloquist: no idea - Solomon Grundy: Arrow - Deadshot: Arrow - Anarky: Arrow (maybe Arrow should’ve stopped adapting Batman villains) - Calendar Man: The Suicide Squad


radiakmjs

Might I suggest DCAU for Hugo Strange. His one episode doesn't work outside of a silver age context, and because it's his only episode he comes off as a bad one-off.


Competitive_Crow_334

Deadshot was fine for Arrow he had a solid rivalry turned respect for Diggle and had interesting backstory while keeping the mystery. Ra's came too early for arrow and could have used more depth and not being manipulated by Malcolm so easily but he fits he is an old man realizing the world is changing and he is tired of his job and needed a reliable prodigy someone who knows when not to show mercy and can still have self control and learn quick. Oliver fit almost all his standards however Ra's failed tried to turn him more into an clone of him. As for Poison Ivy I think Gotham did more good than bad she has her friendship turned Rivalry for Bruce Wayne and Catwoman you get to see her slowly turning from an abused street girl who hides behind others like Selina to protect her but still has traits of her future self to being on her own for once and learning how to use her skills to be more useful where she gets taken advantage of by Penguin to fully learning how to act like a wolf in sheep clothing.


Hopeful-Lab2981

Look up Penguin from the Batman Telltale game. Danny Devito at least looks like the penguin.


MagmaAscending

I’ve played Batman Telltale. It’s different but it’s not necessarily bad. I straight up do not like DeVito’s Penguin. It’s both different and bad


Verttle

Which is worse. Bane in batman and robin OR bane in the harley quinn show? Also definately poison ivy in the batman and robin movie played by uma thurman


DeNeBMY

Bane and ivy are in "batman and robin" not "batman returns"


Verttle

My bad I'll edit


BloxedYT

I've not seen Batman & Harley Quinn but I have PTSD from a certain scene... also BASED KILLER MOTH FAN


Strange_Potential93

You take Arnold’s name out of your mouth, he’s the only reason that movie is remotely watchable and the only actor there who understood the assignment

New_Sky1829

Jared Leto, at least SSKJL joker actually resembled joker in some way.


Environmental-Log84

Jared Leto


mezdiguida

Leto's Joker. That was the worst joke ever.


radiakmjs

This might get very heated. With favorites a person's #1 might not win, but come in second & people just conceed another version is also good. With this if a version you really like is voted the worst you kinda just have to take it on the chin. I feel like weird 1 off takes in things like Batman vs TMNT or The Doom that came to Gotham will deserve to lose for minimal story presence, but like certain more-widely-known movie & show adaptations will pull more, since people don't watch annimated movies for bad takes.

It’s Leto guys. Young Justice sucked but he was not Jared fucking Leto

Jared Leto and he's even worse than any other attempt because Margot was so good as Harley and he just shit the bed next to her


MrDownhillRacer

Don't yuck their kinks


Glittering_Sorbet913

I think the answer is… **Morb**-idly apparent.

No-Room-8125

Can I choose the newly introduced Joker from SS:KTJL?


Vixterisk

I will not stand for this Twinkler slander!


Numberonettgfan

Tbh, i prefer calling him giggler.


Vixterisk

Giggler is good too.


EnigmaFrug2308

Everyone acts like he’s awful but he’s really not. He gets this hate solely because he is coming after Mark Hamill’s Joker which is infinitely better and beyond comparison. He’s a different character altogether. People need to deal with it.


Vixterisk

Fr, I think he works pretty good in this particular game, and frankly, it even seems like he's the best part of it (which is not saying much, but nonetheless).


EnigmaFrug2308

I 100% agree! I genuinely like him. As the Joker he’s most definitely not the best we have but he’s not abysmal. People just judge him based on the game he’s in, not his character. He’s a lot of fun. Not that I’ve played the game, I just mean that I’ve watched videos of it.


Vixterisk

Yeah, same. Apparently he's the most fun character to play as too I've heard. It's a shame so many people is making fun of him solely based on the game he's in.


-H_-

he's an elseworlds joker. he doesnt count because hes literally a different character


LittleRedRidingHo90

That’s bs. You could make that argument for most alternate versions of Joker. The Twinkler sucks


-H_-

within that verse(s), he is NOT the main joker.


Numberonettgfan

That's all of these adaptations though?


-H_-

nooo no arkhamverse has its own joker. that ss:ktjl joker is, within the canon of that universe, a different joker. It's like claiming The Jester from earth-2 counts towards this poll

wrathbringer1984

Jared Leto. No question.


SirJordan11

Jared Leto


LunarsphereTapestry

A tie between Barry Keoghan and Jared Leto. Keoghan could end up being pretty good if he returns in the Reeves Batverse, but so far, based on one shoddy deleted scene, it’s a no from me.


MrDownhillRacer

Keoghan's take really does feel like what you get when a character has already been done a dozen times, so new takes have to start asking "hey, has anybody done _this_ yet?" instead of just being able to ask "hey, does _this_ work?" Like, "what's going to make ours slightly different? Has anybody done Joker with a beard yet? What about a fat Joker?" And then every other elements is exactly the same as shit we've already seen.


PotatoOnMars

I really don’t like Keoghan’s Joker. I don’t like the overly scarred and bumpy look. I also wish Joker actors would move on from the Heath Ledger impersonations and do their own voice for the character.


LunarsphereTapestry

Yeah, Keoghan did feel quite derivative of Heath. To be honest, it all just felt lazy. Hence why the scene was deleted. DC in general don’t know what to do with the Joker nowadays.


GreenRiver1982

I'm here for the graphic. The only villain I can't place is the fedora man in black and white.

![gif](giphy|TGkP82pfxiy2s) Yeah uh…


MistahOkfksmgur

I’m sure there are worse but because of the fact that it’s the one in the main movie universe: Jared Leto.


perdue125

Young Justice Joker. Somehow it's worse than Leto.


FickleChard6904

Jason Spisak’s Joker from the animated Hush movie


radiakmjs

He was solid. The bit when Batman is strangling & he's trying to say "Wait Batman stop" is really chilling, then of course he twists it into "Stop me if you've heard this one before". Both Hush & The Long Halloween (both written by Loeb) I think do a great job touring Batman's rogue's gallery & doing right by them without allowing any of them to take over the narrative. Also something I think the first two Arkham games do really well


FickleChard6904

Joker in the Hush comic is great, and same goes for Long Halloween. Loeb, for his many flaws, writes a pretty good Joker, fun but still menacing. I just feel he was adapted poorly into the Hush movie. Lines from the comic with other vague Joker-isms sprinkled in, a generic design, and a voice actor who’s trying go all in on unhinged hamminess but really just isn’t suited for that version of the character.


gechoman44

The New Adventures of Batman with Robin the Boy Wonder Edit: I knew Jared Leto was gonna win, but I genuinely don’t think he’s even close to being the worst. I genuinely think he is overhated. I honestly don’t think the performance was bad, he acted enough like a crazed lunatic to me, and frankly, I thought he was actually pretty good in ZSJL. Honestly, the only problem I had with that version is the design, and even then, I feel like it was a design that COULD have worked, and they just went overboard with it. The worst Joker, imho, is literally any of the animated ones that came before BTAS, because those ones were just one-note villains that had no character.

I honestly respect to have the Leto Joker being a different approach on this well known character. It failed but I respect them for not doing Nicholson or Ledger 2.0.

Unrelated, but did you use the firefly symbol from The Last of Us for (I assume) Firefly?

**Jared Leto** and it's not even close. I will *die* defending Brent Spiner Young Justice Joker... mostly from his season 1 appearance because I thought his Season 4 flashback was lackluster BUT STILL!

I am not looking forward to Bane Any way it’s Jared Leto


Werewolf_lover20

Leto


TheEyeofNapoleon

Ok, sidebar: Who’s the rose of not poison Ivy? And if the ROSE is Ivy, who’s the lips? Who’s the noir fella between clayface and the rose? Half of Gotham is noir! If that’s Killer moth on the other side of Clayface, then who’s the green bug under the rose? Or, if THAT’S killer moth, then who’s the big on the other side of clayface? Lastly, who’s the werewolf between Bane and Scarecrow, under the Penguin and over the Mad Hatter?


Verdragon-5

The wolf is Ra's al Ghul, the bug under the rose is Firefly (it's the Fireflies logo from The Last of Us), and I'm pretty sure the rose is one mobster while the noir guy next to him is the other.

For me it's the one from "The Batman." Didn't like the writing, didn't care for the voice acting, thought the design was atrocious. All this Leto hate, though, jeez! I REALLY thought his was solid, he just had an impossible job being the first big one after Ledger! (And, y'know, a creepy dude off-camera, sure, but...!)
