Joker an Aspie?

Post Reply New Topic

Do you think the Joker from Dark Knight is an Aspie? Maybe he was a bit sociopath too, but maybe his obsession was killing and chaos, and he also talked funny too.

That which doesn't kill you makes you stranger.

I think the Joker is just a psychopath, so utterly, incurably insane that he does things for the sake of doing them rather than for any real concrete reason.

He's not a planner, after all

i wouldn't of thought he was an aspie either. quoting the commentater guy in the insane clown posse band "he's a deranged psycho serial killer clown". and so on . that pretty mutch sums the joker up in my eyes

According to Wikipedia the Joker is actualy a type of super sanity, he is suposed to be so sane that he is able to put on the show. He finds that the thing he love most of all is having fun and gets the most fun out of playing with Batman, suposidly in the other media he is in he has a chance to kill batman but chooses not to so he can have fun. He considerd that actualy going to jail was a place where he could get a rest as he could break out whenever he wanted. This super sanity supposidly can kind of give the Joker a kind of psychic abilities and kind of wants to test Batman to fulfil his boredom.

This is something that writer Grant Morrison introduced to the character in the Arkham Asylum one-shot he wrote a few years back - and thankfully no other writer has picked up on it, instead simply treating the Joker as a grinning, manipulative lunatic with a fetish for beating people to death with crowbars

But how does he keep breaking out of prison, you look at all the cartoons and things there is more to the Joker then meets the eye, he is actualy realy inteligent. I thin it is good stratagy, a kind of psychological warfare, having a status that people do not take serously while at the same time creating something of an icon, just like Batman.

Joke is hypersane
