10 Sickest "Jokes" The Joker Ever Pulled

2. Ate China - Emperor Joker

Sadly, the Joker isn't above a bit of racist humour every now and then. Well, he is evil.

After stealing the powers of Mister Mxyzptlk, the Joker finds himself the most powerful creature in the universe. What is Joker the God... sorry, Emperor Joker... to do? Naturally, the most pressing bit of business is to torment the Batman, capturing and then murdering the Dark Knight, day after day.

One of the most heinous acts Joker pulled was that of mass genocide, eating the entire population of China. Over 1 billion people. All in service of a crap pun and a racist joke.

It doesn't even make sense, when you think about it. Well, there's a reason most Joker origin stories have him as a failed standup comedian. With material like that, he should have been grateful for the acid dip.
