20 Mind-Blowing Facts About The Joker

8. He Cut His Own Face Off...And Wore It After

Not convinced that The Joker is the most insane comic book villain of all-time? Well, in the pages of 2011's Detective Comics #1, it was revealed that he cut off his own face after escaping from captivity. Why? Who knows, but the next time the Clown Prince of Crime appeared, it was with his decaying skin reattached to his head with the use of a belt and fishing hooks. It was a disturbing image, and one which has led to a lot of creative cosplay! During this story, he even made Batman believe that he had cut the faces off each of his closest allies, a pretty horrifying visual. The Joker regained his old face after stumbling upon a mysterious chemical which healed him and gave the villain enhanced strength.
