Batman: 10 Awful Villains The Dark Knight Should Be Ashamed Of
5. The Jokerz
While an interesting take on the lasting legacy of Batman, Batman Beyond sometimes felt cold with how unfamiliar the world was. Gotham was barely recognisable, supporting characters were brand new bar a couple of familiar faces, and Batman wasnt even Bruce Wayne. As previously mentioned, the show did have some familiar faces in classic villains like Mr. Freeze, Ras Al Ghul and Bane. These ventures into Batmans past usually resulted in the series best episodes, but some felt like like a watered down re-hash.
The Jokerz are an intriguing concept. It goes without saying that the most notorious villain in Gothams legacy, The Joker, would influence young wannabe criminals long after his death. The only problem is that this gang did little else bar laugh, wear make-up and ride around on loud motorbikes. The groups most interesting aspect was brining new recruits to the remains of the Joker, but this does little to help the fact that their hero casts a very long and iconic shadow that is impossible to move out of.
