10 Times The Joker Was Genuinely Hilarious

7. He Ate China - Emperor Joker

The Joker
DC Comics

After the Joker obtained the reality-warping powers from the fifth-dimensional being, Mr. Mxyzptlk, he turns into a god called Emperor Joker. Using his boundless power, he reshapes the Earth into his image. (That's not an exaggeration. He turns the planet into a cube and makes each side bare his insidious scowl.) With his godlike abilities, he transforms Harley Quinn into a constellation, traps Batman in a permanent loop of torture, and turns Lex Luthor into his personal jester.

As horrifying as his actions are, some of the ways the Joker utilises his divine power is pretty funny. In Joker's new reality, Wonder Woman is a baker, Green Lantern is a shadow puppet expert, and The Flash is a morbidly obese speedster called The Flab.

So, what's the zaniest thing he does with omnipotent power? He eats China. ALL of it! As horrifying as the act is, it looks ridiculous watching the insane deity eating a country with chopsticks from a takeaway container. (Don't worry. By the end of the story, all of China got better.)
