10 Insanely Dark Joker Moments That'll Never Make It To Film
8. Killing Sarah Essen Gordon - No Man's Land
Whilst Batman is the one who is most famous for being tormented by The Joker, Jim Gordon has also been put through the wringer on many occasions. One such moment was during the 1999 No Mans Land arc. Gotham City was on its knees after being hit by an earthquake and its villains were running riot. After killing SWAT Lieutenant William Petit on Christmas Day, not to mention leaving Huntress in a bad way, The Joker went on to kidnap all of Gothams babies. When poor Sarah Essen Gordon, Jim Gordons second wife, happens upon The Jokers police station hideout, Mr. J shoots her in the head as she attempts to catch a baby that he dropped. It goes without saying, Jim Gordon was out for revenge, but Batman managed to talk him out of doing something hed regret. Either way, seeing Gordons wife shot in the head whilst saving a baby? Yeah, thats something thats likely to never make it to the big screen.
