10 Most Brutal Murders The Joker Has Ever Committed
7. Blowing Up An Entire School
During Batman: Cacophony, Joker showed once again that he isn't afraid to stoop to killing children just to send a message.
As Maxie Zeus tries to start a new empire, thanks to a new drug he has created using the Joker Venom, the Clown Prince of Crime is forced to send him a clear message.
While Zeus is giving an interview, claiming he has turned a new leaf and become a legitimate member of society, he is called away urgently by his staff. Joker had taken the Parthenon School and taken Zeus' nephew and classmates hostage.
After a lengthy conversation, Zeus offers to go into partnership with Joker on his new enterprise. Of course, being the narcissist he is, the clown is having none of it and declares the start of a gang war.
Zeus laughs off the threat, stating he would crush the Joker and his army like bugs. However, the Joker is in no mood to play games and replies "And I'll crush you like a room full of unibrowed school kids".
Naturally, Zeus is confused by the oddly specific statement. That is, 'til he turns around just in time to watch the entire school explode with his nephew still inside.
