The Joker King
As far back as he can remember, Douglas Tan was obsessed with The Joker. He decorated his room in every piece of Joker merchandise he could get his hands on, and tried to research as much about the Clown Prince of Crime that he could. Unfortunately, his parents saw his fascination as an “Unhealthy Obsession”, and they tried their best to distance their son from anything Joker related. They got rid of his merchandise, deleted all of his hard drives containing information, and even sent him to multiple therapists. Doug was a lot like his father though, as when he sent his mind on something, he’d never let it go. He later joined a Jokerz gang, as he saw it as a prime opportunity to spread chaos in The Joker’s name. However, all the Jokerz did was petty vandalism, loitering, and they sometimes even fought other Jokerz. After being sent to prison for the umpteenth time, Doug had an epiphany, and thought he finally knew what The Joker’s message truly was. No matter what you do, nothing matters. Everything ends eventually, no matter how far your legacy reaches past your death. Wanting to spread this wisdom with his fellow Jokerz, he began proselytizing to these people, and became their messiah in a way. After finally getting out of prison, Doug and his friend Pally Otchee went around recruiting Jokerz from other cities, planning on having all of them converge on Gotham. Once he had them all meet up in the Gotham Cemetery, he secretly sprayed them all with hypnotic drugs using hidden misters in the trees. He then convinced all of them to wear bomb vests and to suicide bomb themselves all over Gotham in order to destroy it in the name of The Joker. During the ensuing chaos, Doug headed to the hospital to kill the family that abandoned him, since his father was in a coma after Doug elbowed him in the face. He was stopped by Batman Beyond, but Doug managed to incapacitate him by constantly knocking him on the head in order to keep him delirious. His then took Batman to a construction site, and planned to hang him from the top. Batman managed to escape from the noose, and he along with a couple other heroes tried to stop Doug, who had completely lost it, and had gone full Joker crazy. His sister then ran on the scene, and Doug took her hostage. An explosion caused Doug to loose his footing, and he wound up toppling over the side of the building. His foot got tangled in a rope he was standing on, and his head ended up getting banged on the side of the building, killing him instantly. At least he died with a smile on his face, like a true Joker.
Justice League: Injustice - Cast (Part 2)
Using this information, Lex sends different members of the legion to fight their respective heroes, with an added bonus that'll allow them to incapacitate the hero. Wonder Woman is infected with a hallucinogenic serum that makes her see everyone as Cheetah. Batman is trapped in an endless maze filled with memorials to all of his past failures. Superman is exposed to red kryptonite, causing him to go insane. Flash is attached to a bomb that'll explode if he stops running or slows to under 100 mph. Martian Manhunter is infected with nanites that burn on contact with air. Aquaman is rendered hydrophobic by Scarecrow's fear toxin.

This is a song I found that I think fits Charlie Morningstar from Hazbin Hotel perfectly. Give it a listen!
Red Hood / The Jokester (Earth 3)
Welcome to Earth 3, one of the craziest and darkest Earths in the multiverse. This is a world where those destined to be paragons of Justice & Honor instead devolved into symbols of Terror & Doom. But likewise, those destined to be symbols of Terror & Doom instead chose to be paragons of Justice & Honor. One such example is Gotham City's heroes. Their original hero was the Red Hood, a swashbuckling vigilante who brought much-needed justice and freedom to a city crushed under the oppressive fist of Owlman. Armed with a grapple hook/sword cane, razor-sharp playing cards, & his upbeat and jovial attitude, he patrolled the streets of Gotham, fighting evil wherever he saw it. No one ever knew who he truly was, but they never cared. All that mattered to the good citizens of Gotham was that he was there to help and protect them. Unfortunately, his career ended after Owlman figured out who he was. Wanting to rid himself of this perpetual thorn in his side and make a statement to all of Gotham, Owlman tracked Red Hood down to his home, murdered his pregnant wife, and then dragged him to the Ace Chemical plant. He then tied Red Hood up and beat him savagely while live-streaming the entire thing for all of Gotham to see. He then unmasked Red Hood before throwing him over the railing into one of the chemical vats. All of Gotham mourned the death of their guardian, feeling as though their hope died with him. Fortunately, their hopes wouldn't die for long. About a month later, a new hero appeared in Gotham going by the monicker of The Jokester. No one knew for certain who he was, but he vaguely reminded them of the Red Hood, though they certainly had their differences. Red Hood is a mysterious swashbuckling rogue out of a romance novel, whereas The Jokester is a manic trickster with a slightly twisted sense of humor. Red Hood also hid his face behind a mask while Jokester struts around with his face for all to see. The Jokester also wields more gadgets, all with his signature comedy theme; including his primary sidearm, his firework-shooting jester staff. He also seemed to have a specific vendetta against Owlman, openly targeting him and his supervillainous protege, Talon. If Red Hood was an annoyance to Owlman & Talon, then The Jokester was his arch-nemesis. After a few years of the two being caught in a never-ending game of Cat-and-Mouse with each other, Jokester went from a one-man act to a player on a global scale when he was offered a seat in the Legion of Justice, led by the superhero billionaire Alexander Luthor.

ANARKY (Beware The Batman)
This is my own redraw of Anarky from the "Beware The Batman" cartoon. While I know everyone has their own opinions on the show (or don't know it exists), I will admit that it has always been one of my favorite Batman shows. One of the most polarizing things about the show is its inclusion of obscure Batman villains like Professor Pyg & Magpie and using them as placeholders for the primary Batman villains. And though I certainly am one to be critical of vast departures in comic-to-screen adaptations, I am willing to forgive certain decisions if they make sense or at least have good reasoning. Case in point: The show's depiction of Anarky.
I will admit that this is kind of a terrible Anarky. He's not a politically conscious teenage anti-hero/anti-villain who masquerades as an adult to further his political rebellion and has an on/off relationship with the Bat Family. Instead, he's basically the show's answer to The Joker. And while I normally wouldn't be so forgiving of such a change to a character that I like and respect, I am willing to accept it if what they make is at least good. And while this isn't a good Anarky, IT IS A GREAT VILLAIN. One thing I like so much about this Anarky is that they basically made him the "Anti-Batman". He dresses in a nearly accurate costume to Batman's, save for it having a hood, an "A" as its symbol, and being entirely white. He even has similar gadgets, though made to kill people as opposed to Batman's non-lethal gadgets. He's also a master combatant who can hold his own against Batman (He was basically the proto Nemesis). I also like how they use him as a Joker placeholder while still making him his own character. Instead of being a maniacal mass-murdering cartoon villain dressed in a purple tuxedo, he's a much more reserved and calculated mastermind who often manipulates others into unknowingly doing his bidding; like when he tricked Batman and Lady Shiva into nearly unleashing an epidemic or when he teamed up with Harvey Dent to take down Batman, which led to the latter getting scarred and becoming Two-Face. He's also not clown-themed in any way, instead going for more of a Chess theme with him as the "White King" and Batman as the "Black King". I also really like his portrayal by Wallace Langham. Instead of being a very off-the-wall over-the-top hammy performance, he's soft-spoken and mellow, but with hints of malice behind his voice. He kind of sounds like Neil Patrick Harris if he had Schizophrenia. Anarky barely ever loses his cool and hardly ever raises his voice, which adds to his menace.
That's all I have to say really. What are your opinions of "Beware The Batman" or this version of Anarky?
