Heath Ledger's joker was the most Iconic joker we've had to date. None of the newbies can replace him as the greatest joker. Rest in peace my smiling friend.
Watch some clips of Cameron Monoghan as Jerome Valeska in the Gotham TV series. I wouldn't say he's better than Ledger or Hamill (That would be blasphemy) but he's easily as good as. He was the closest thing we've gotten to the original Joker in the comics. He brings to live action the same character Mark Hamill embodies when he gets behind the microphone. Ledger and Phoenix were both fantastic, but it's important to note that they were re-inventions of the character, where as Monoghan is as close to the original source material that we've ever seen in live action, just how Hamill is in the animations. As I said, he's not better than Ledger, but he's as good as.
The Joker is the perfect number 1 villain. I would put Ra’s Al Ghul number 2. He knows Batman’s identity, grandfather of Damien Wayne, centuries old, has avoid getting arrested and leader of the league of shadows.
That's the best part about Nolan's interpretation of Bane. Sure it was super grounded and maybe not as comic accurate as people would like but it reminded the mainstream audience that Bane is a master strategist and very intelligent, will always be thankful for Hardy's Bane
I don't see Bane as underated. In terms of hand to hand combat, most of the time he beats up Batman, the freaking Batman. He beats Batman in the movie. He's the one who broke his back both in the movies and comics not once man but twice. Check out Batman Rebirth on how Bane broke the Bat. Bane is the man haha he is never underated.
@@zero_flair Bane is one of two Villains who can match Batman in hand to hand. Deathstroke is the other one. I’d say Deathstoke could probably beat Bane as he is a super soldier meaning advanced healing. Deathstroke is one of those villains that can’t really he defeated. It would be cool if this Batman franchise finally gives us Batman vs Deathstroke since that was supposed to be Ben Afflecks the Batman so would be cool if Matt Reeves gave us some sort of payoff for that. Slade Wilson is one of the best Villains and while he isn’t exactly just a Batman villain he definitely deserves to be feature in a Batman film Slade is one of the toughest villains that Batman has ever faced, as he’s not only a physical match for Batman but also a mental match. Slade uses 100% of his brain due to the super soldier serum he has. Deathstroke is so awesome he should get his own movie or show within this Batman universe. Just look at Arrow and Titans they gave us some amazing versions of Slade Wilson.
The Riddler is very underrated mostly because of how writers creates his stories, hopefully things will change with Matt Reves Batman and if it diesn’t Riddler still remain a great villain
I know that on most lists if not all of them, the Joker is usually number 1. For me however, the Riddler is my favorite villain by far. His mastery of the mind and his double meanings in his riddles makes him very dangerous and formidable. I think his depiction in the 1992 Batman the Animated Series is the true essence of the character.
@@graypanther7357 I’d probably put him 3 after penguin & the joker obviously but scarecrow & Ra’s al ghul are on the same level as the riddler in my opinion so #3 is kinda interchangeable between the 3 of them
We all know who’s topping this list, but the real question is this: The Criminal, The Clown, or the Comedian? Which out of the Three is the best Joker? If I’m gonna have a Number 1 on this list, I’d rather it be multiple choice!
@@No_mans_flies what about mark hamill and Joaquim pheonix? ledger was great, but i liked the other 2 abit more, especially hamill. as for the character himself, he wouldnt even be in my top 10. very overrated and oversaturated. thats why it was so refreshing to watch the movie Joker. i'd rather a movie be made of someone else from the rogue gallery like two face or bane or deadshot, or deathstroke, or mr. freeze or ra's al ghul or a gangster flick staring rupert thorne or black mask, but i liked the alternate take in the role.
how is joker number 1 of all time? over bane, ra's al ghul, mr. freeze, riddler, deathstroke, two face, rupert thorne, lex luther, deadshot, darkseid, vandal savage, lobo, brainiac, sinestro, reverse flash, loki, magneto, doctor doom, green goblin, mysterio king pin, venom, carnage, dormammu, kaido, spandam, crocodile, enel, doflamingo, big mom, blackbeard, freeza, dr. gero, johan liebert? i dont think joker is better than any of those.
Of course. To put anyone else at #1 would just be... crazy. Hehehahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha *AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!*
Here are some underrated villains of Batman: 1. Anarky 2. Professor Pyg 3. Calendar Man 4. KGBeast 5. Lady Shiva 6. Deacon Blackfire 7. Electrocutioner 8. Ratcatcher 9. Great White Shark 10. Man-Bat
He wants to prove to Batman that he is already insane. Or from his perspective, he and Batman are the only two "sane" people in an insane world. The Batman never gives in, which leads to their never ending cat and mouse game.
I personally like the Joker and Batman relationship because it has shown us how a clown/king pin/criminal mastermind can outsmart the worlds greatest detective. Not only that, the worlds greatest detective considers his identity as Batman instead of Bruce Wayne (in some adaptations) because of what he does. What even makes me like the joker more than any other Batman villain is that he is able to outsmart ALL of the Justice League members. A great example is tricking Superman into killing his unborn child and wife due to a drug, destroying Metropolis in the process. This shows just how far the joker can go for a fun time and to surprise Batman at any given moment
One of my favourite Joker moments is when Batman offers to help rehabilitate him but Joker replies with "I'm sorry. But no. No. It's far too late for that." Such a powerful moment.
Mr.freeze is on of the most sympathetic villains ever, freeze doesn't want to hurt people in most idarations he wants to avoid that. Mr. Freeze just wants to save his wife and that's it. I want to see a storyline where he gets to revive her and they live together till death do they part
@@markusaurelius83 I regret saying that though it shouldn’t be in the main universe an alternate story I mean Nora being sick is like Uncle Ben not being alive
Watch Arkham Knight's "Heart of Ice" DLC expansion. Similar story, but he doesn't cure her. She is out of the cryochamber and asks him to let her live. So he and her sail away together, living happily until Nora's death. Very emotional ending. I loved it.

@@ProudPapa26 how did he whitewash them, jokers always been American. Bane is originally half American half Latino but he's from a middle Eastern country in rises and ra's I would assume from the story that he's from a similar region or as bane since he was suppose to be out in the pit too. So not sure I would class it as whitewashing tbh
@@azrael_pendragon Everyone ranks him number one when there are more interesting comic book/manga villains. Everyone be ranking this man number one out of all of those.
@@ChibiProwl they aren't big Batman villains Deadshot is just an assassin Court of Owls is gaining popularity but is a new thing Black Mask has barely been seen and Hush had an animated movie recently
I love the fact that Mr Freeze, Scarecrow, Mad Hatter and Calendar Man were first made as Joke villains but nowadays they’re one of his most dangerous, insane, tragic and scary villains. Dangerous and tragic for Mr Freeze Insane and scary for Mad Hatter, Calendar Man(Thanks to the Long Halloween two parter)and Scarecrow. Also Deathstroke is more of a Nightwing villain then a Batman villain.
Mr. Freeze, Mad Hatter, and Calendar Man were indeed first made as more or less joke villains, but Scarecrow was created as a serious and threatening villain right from the very beginning.
Mr freeze was a Joke and a Lame villain Back then in the 60s However he was rebooted in the 90s Thanks to the Animated Series That made him a tragic character as we know today
YES! Bane is number 2 on this list. He still is my favorite Batman Villain, Since he broke the Bat's back. To me there no better Batman villain, When it come's to Combat skills like, Bane! I want more BANE story's in the Future. PLZ a Live action Origin,Solo movie and even Animated movie. BANE IS MY MOST FAVORITE BATMAN VILLAIN.
Heath Ledger, Mark Hamill and Joaquin Phoenix are the best actors to ever portray the Joker. They all brought out the Jokers psychopathy and crazy laugh
Leto’s Joker > Joaquin’s Great Value version. Lol Great actor though and got the Academy for it. Just not a good interpretation of the comic character. Ledger, Hamill, Nicholson, Leto and Romero top 5.
@@freddieb2171 you just criticized phoenix for not portraying joker like the comics but then you add ledger to the list of great jokers? Ledgers joker's character on paper is like the comics, but his portrayal is radically different from anything seen before. Why does phoenix get a different treatment?
The Joker is one of my all time favorite villain since The Dark Knight because the way Heath Ledger performed and made me feel like I want to be an actor as well.
@@crobeastness but he is def the greatest. Just cuz he’s not everyone fav his impact on Batman and his family shows y he’s the greatest. Killing Jason Todd and paralyzing batgirl. Making his own joker war, turning him into his own nightmare (batman who laughs), poisoning kids and making sure kids see their parents die right in front of a powerless Batman. Killed talia ghul in the game. Turned tim drake into a joker. He’s done alot
Penguin is more complicated than that. There're a lot of more canonical versions then ones of Gotham's and Batman returns (even though they're fabulous too). He deserves better then 9th place!
I would like to see a Penguin tv show discussing about his origin story and it would be so cool if Matt Reeves directed it as a Spinoff to the Batman like the Peacemaker.
@@sebvials802 Not every people watched Gotham tv show. Its a good opportunity for having some Batman villains receiving their own Spinoffs. The Joker also had an origin story in Gotham tv show and they made for him a solo movie that appeared to be a financial success.
There’s a doctor strange in DC and Marvel, a death stroke in DC and a Deadpool in Marvel, a Cat woman in DC and a Black cat in Marvel, a Darkside in DC and a Thanos in Marvel, a Wonder Woman in Dc and a Captain Marvel in Marvel. No matter what they think of there will be an exact match in the other universe
Marvel doesn't have a version of Clayface. In fact what many people don't know that there are four different Clayfaces. One of them being female. The most dangerous one in comics was Basil Karlo. He was the first Clayface
It was a no brainer that Joker was going to be number one on this list, but I also really love Scarecrow as he's truly one of the most remorseless villains who always gets under people's skin
@@willjohnboy When we're talking about live action Joker Heath Ledger comes at number 1. If that dude was alive, he would have played the Joker in Multiple movies and tv shows within the DCEU and maybe he could have received his own solo movie. Heath Ledger is born to be the Joker like RDJ as Ironman and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine.
Definitely Joker is no. 1 but Penguin will always be my personal favorite. There's something about a classy, umbrella-wielding mob boss that makes me yell "That's awesome "
Joker 🃏 🤡- Green Goblin. Bane- Kingpin. The Riddler- Mysterio. Clayface- Sandman. The Penguin 🐧- The Owl 🦉. Scarecrow- Marvel also has a Scarecrow. Deathstroke- Deadpool. Deadshot- Bullseye 🎯. Two Face- Jigsaw. Killer Croc🐊- The Lizard 🦎 Ras' AlGhul- The Mandarin. Black Mask 😷- Red Skull 💀. Mr. Freeze🥶- Blizzard❄.
“Gotham” was an unfairly treated series except for those of us who enjoyed all those villain origin stories. As philosophers like the late Joseph Campbell wrote (no direct quotes here) every great story has both a hero and an anti-hero (adversary) and a great journey that transforms them both.
@@SpectralSound. with the insane marking, it will for sure be a major success at the box office, could even be top 5 highest grossing of all time. But if the movie is say as bad as something like Batman & robin, no one will want to see a second or third. And yes, the trailers are phenomenal, but we have all been let down by Extremely hype trailers before.
The big 5 core villains are Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler, & Two-Face. Next in line are Scarecrow, Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, Harley Quinn, Bane, Mad Hatter, Ra's al Ghul, Clayface, & Killer Croc. Additional top villains include Man-Bat, Talia al Ghul, Firefly, Black Mask, Deathstroke, Ventriloquist & Scarface, Deadshot, Talon, Hush, Punchline, and Mr. Zsasz.
I can’t believe that Hugo strange was only at number 20, I feel like he should’ve been in the top 10 since he is my favourite villain in Gotham because he helped create many villains like Mr freeze, Clayface and firefly
My top five favorites would be The Joker, Ra's Al Ghul, Scarecrow, The Riddler and Two Face, with The Penguin as an honorable mention. I feel like Hugo Strange should be ranked higher also.
Yes Heath Ledger and Mark hamill did a great job playing the joker my two favorite actors who play The Joker and you should also mention Cesar Romero from Batman 1966 and Jack Nicholson from Batman 1989
Joker obviously #1 but #2 should be Mr Freeze. His reason d’etre is tragic. The only problem is with his methods being to freeze things, how do you implement that into a film without it turning into the lampoon farce of Batman & Robin
@@crobeastness mostly the concept of a humanoid crocodile turned fighter turned cannibal is really cool in my eyes , although the character was done awfully in 2016 suicide squad movie in the comics and cartoons etc he has brilliant representation
@@the324slayer4 I think his representation in the cartoons and video games make him look like a baffoon. He is pretty cool in the comics I will admit. I love Jim lees drawing of him.
How come Gotham's version of Penguin and Riddler were actually really good. Also, we need another live action movie with Scarecrow as the main bad guy.
Two-face is my favorite. I like the Arkham game where he clearly has two different personalities while in The Dark Knight it didn't really work as well imo (still a great movie tho)
1: Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow (Scared Inmates) 2: Arthur Fleck/Joker (Killed Jason Todd) 3: Bane (Broke Batman’s Back) 4: Ra’s Al Ghul (Leads the League of Shadows) 5: Slade Wilson/Deathstroke (Went to Oliver Queen’s house) 6: Edward Nigma/Riddler (Blew Up and Flooded Gotham) 7: Waylon Jones/Killer Croc (Tried To Drown Batman) 8: Selina Kyle/Catwoman (Stole Stuff) 9: Harvey Dent/Two Face (Held Gun To Gordon Family) 10: Oswold Cobblepot/Penguin (Stole Children) 11: Dr. Hugo Strange (Became Batman) 12: Mr. Freeze ( 13: Harleen Quinzel (In Love With Joker) 14: Joe Chill (Murdered Bruce’s Parents) 15: Court of Owls (Took Over Gotham) 16: Clayface (Disquised Himself) 17: Mad Hatter (Obsessed With A Lady) 18: Poison Ivy (Poisoned Robin) 19: Deadshot (A Hit Man) 20: Victor Zsasz (Killed God Only Knows How Many) HM: Black Mask, Calander Man, Man Bat, Professor Pyg, Ventriloquist and Scarface, Hush
Honorable Mentions: *Man-Bat -Once a scientist named Dr. Kirk Langstrom, he injected himself with a serum from the secretions of bats to try to cure his own deafness. It works... but not in the way he had hoped. He becomes a human/bat hybrid monster known as Man-Bat. As far as I know, Man-Bat has yet to appear in live-action, though he does appear in Batman: The Animated Series, The Lego Batman Games, and Batman: Arkham Knight. *Killer Moth -I only know of him via his appearances in the Lego Batman video games. *Firefly -There are two versions of Firefly, but I'm going with the one more focused on fire. After a fire left Garfield Lynns with severe burns, he becomes the pyromaniac supervillain, Firefly. I know him from Batman: Arkham Origins and Arkham Knight. *The Ventrilloquest and Scarface -It has been debated who was controlling who? Arnold Wesker, or the dummy? They've appeared in various media and while Wesker was absent for the Arkham games, Scarface still makes appearances.
I think Hugo Strange is often undersold in terms of how dangerous he can be, both to the public in general and Batman specifically. The fact that he is a bit more covert in comparison to most of Batman's Rogue's Gallery makes him a threat that is often not recognized until it is far too late. B.D. Wong gave a stellar performance of Strange in "Gotham." Wouldn't Dr. Hugo Strange versus Dr. Stephen Strange make for an interesting DC/Marvel crossover?
@@crobeastness I think they mean as far as the dc/marvel/comicbook landscape is concerned. Also, I wouldn’t say Holmes has enough notable villains to declare it a rogues gallery
@@normansmith9009 ok, as my favourite character is batman, I will agree. But i do think joker is oversaturated. And Superman's and Flash's rogues gallery are underrated. It's not not just lex Luther and reverse flash, although those guys are also oversaturated. But I don't mind lex being oversaturated since he's seen as a regular, even good guy at times to public who is usually never thrown directly into jail.
Nolan shouldn’t have whitewashed Bane and cast Hardy to begin with. Bane’s Hispanic. Secondly, whatever that hilariously absurd voice Hardy chose to give him just shows how terrible Hardy is at voices and accents.
Batman has the best villains. They all challenge certain aspects that make up his character. That’s why they work so well. Just to name a few… Joker - Challenges his morals Bane - Challenges his strength Scarecrow- Challenges his mind Riddler- Challenges his iq Poison Ivy- Challenges his lust
Fun Fact: Victor Zasz (a Nr 11) is the villain whom Batman admitted of hating the most, even more than the Joker himself. And here is the reason why: Joker got his mind messed up by chemicals. Zasz was rich with loving family, like Bruce, and perfectly sane, but when he lost everything, he just decided to murder people as a new hobby for a sick and twisted pleasure. For Batman Zasz represents the worst kind of evil - pure, unadulterated and completely remorseless.
If I were to only include the villains that WatchMojo selected for this list my rankings are: 1. The Joker 2. Two Face 3. Scarecrow 4. Ra's al Ghul 5. Poison Ivy 6. The Riddler 7. Bane 8. Mr. Freeze 9. The Penguin 10. Clayface 11. The Court of Owls and the Talons 12. Killer Croc 13. Black Mask 14. Hugo Strange 15. The Mad Hatter 16. Deadshot 17. Deathstroke 18. Zsasz 19. Hush 20. Joe Chill
Its a great list, though it could've at least include an Honorable Mentions list involving some of Batman's other recurring foes such as Carmine Falcone, Solomon Grundy, the Ventriloquist & Scarface, Firefly and Professor Pyg.

Ain't she has girlfriend
Mad Hatter has to be one of the most underrated Batman villains. I remember the Hatter from the Arkham games was incredible
Indeed in knight and city mostly
Why
Yeah! He was one of my favorite villians from Batman TAS and he only got two episodes! TWO!
the arkham series absolutely perfected every batman villain (except bane in city and asylum)
Mad hatter is a fucking goat
Interesting that the top 3 were the main villains of each of the Christopher Nolan movies.
That’s why he used em! $$$ And whitewashed the hell out of them to boot. Lol
Cuz Watchmojo just always goes with the popular opinion
@@ProudPapa26 how did he whitewash them, jokers always been American. Bane is originally half American half Latino but he's from a middle Eastern country in rises and ra's I would assume from the story that he's from a similar region or as bane since he was suppose to be out in the pit too. So not sure I would class it as whitewashing tbh
@@carterboswell7611 I think they're using whitewash to mean bland, and not as a refence to the race of the characters.
@@rokeYouuer aww ok that makes more sense haha
That big twist at the end of Arkham City with Clayface was insane.
Absolutely number one is the joker
He is the top and best villain ever
how is joker number one? overrated and oversaturated
@@crobeastness overrated how?
@@azrael_pendragon Everyone ranks him number one when there are more interesting comic book/manga villains. Everyone be ranking this man number one out of all of those.
@@crobeastness i prefer reverse flash but for batman he is no.1
@@azrael_pendragon Well, for example, Frieza and Emperor Palpatine are better villains who have done more damage.
My favorite Batman villain is The Scarecrow. Female wise, it’s Poison Ivy. Some of these villains I’ve never seen or heard of.
Which villains have you never seen or heard of? Because they are all very popular Batman villains the only one I wasn't sure of was Joe Chill
@@Hyde16ful Deadshot, Black Mask, Hush, and The Court of Owls and the Talons.
@@ChibiProwl they aren't big Batman villains Deadshot is just an assassin Court of Owls is gaining popularity but is a new thing Black Mask has barely been seen and Hush had an animated movie recently
@@chelsealazer3710 Thanks. I’ll have to get more information on them.
@@ChibiProwl deadshot is very popular. will smith played him in the bad suicide squad movie.
I love the fact that Mr Freeze, Scarecrow, Mad Hatter and Calendar Man were first made as Joke villains but nowadays they’re one of his most dangerous, insane, tragic and scary villains.
Dangerous and tragic for Mr Freeze
Insane and scary for Mad Hatter, Calendar Man(Thanks to the Long Halloween two parter)and Scarecrow.
Also Deathstroke is more of a Nightwing villain then a Batman villain.
Mr. Freeze, Mad Hatter, and Calendar Man were indeed first made as more or less joke villains, but Scarecrow was created as a serious and threatening villain right from the very beginning.
@@topgig Huh never knew that, I guess I should read more DC comics.
Same with Polka-Dot Man. He was a complete Joke until James Gunn turned him into the tragic antihero we see in The Suicide Squad (2021 obv.)
Mr freeze was a Joke and a Lame villain Back then in the 60s However he was rebooted in the 90s Thanks to the Animated Series That made him a tragic character as we know today
Joker is the best, but my favorites are Two Face, Mr Freeze, Scarecrow, Ra's Al Ghul and Deathstroke
how is joker better than any of your favourites?
and replace scarecrow with bane and then you have my top 5
My top 5 would Joker, Ra's al Ghul, Deathstroke, Solomon Grundy, the Red Hoodl.
my favorites would be Two Face, Mr Freeze, Scarecrow, Riddle, and the Penguin.
@@federicomiyagi8366 great list bro, Riddler and Penguin are awesome and I'm glad they're getting the representation they deserve in The Batman
Hugo Strange, Calandar Man, Shiva, Mad Hatter and Deacon Blackfire can make an impression in a grounded and gritty Batman movie.
i really hope they go with Mad Hatter. Or at least a combination of a few that includes Mad Hatter.
YES! Bane is number 2 on this list. He still is my favorite Batman Villain, Since he broke the Bat's back.
To me there no better Batman villain, When it come's to Combat skills like, Bane! I want more BANE story's in the Future. PLZ a Live action Origin,Solo movie and even Animated movie.
BANE IS MY MOST FAVORITE BATMAN VILLAIN.
Yep. Bane will be forever remembered as the villain who broke the bat.
And he broke the butler ^^
@@devocrankseven1546 That too!
waaaaay better than joker and hes not even my number 1, but he is in my top 5 for sure.
@@crobeastness i agree he's better than joker.
#5 and #4 are probably the closest we'll ever get to these two sharing any kind of space together for a long time. Even unto this day
Glad to see Mr Freeze got a major upgrade from the last time you did this list.
The Dark Knight was the reason why I love Joker so much
it didnt make you love two face so much?
I love Jack Nicholson Joker also
Rip Heath Ledger, his Joker was way too good
Heath Ledger, Mark Hamill and Joaquin Phoenix are the best actors to ever portray the Joker. They all brought out the Jokers psychopathy and crazy laugh
John DiMaggio and Cameron Monaghan are really good too
Jack Nicholson also deserves some credit.
@@BraydenOverHeaven Cameron Monaghan was very cringe as joker
Leto’s Joker > Joaquin’s Great Value version. Lol Great actor though and got the Academy for it. Just not a good interpretation of the comic character. Ledger, Hamill, Nicholson, Leto and Romero top 5.
@@freddieb2171 you just criticized phoenix for not portraying joker like the comics but then you add ledger to the list of great jokers? Ledgers joker's character on paper is like the comics, but his portrayal is radically different from anything seen before. Why does phoenix get a different treatment?
Killer Croc and Deathstroke deserve their time in the spotlight more often ✊😔
Can you believe it's been *30 years* since Mark Hamill started voicing Mr J??
The Joker is one of my all time favorite villain since The Dark Knight because the way Heath Ledger performed and made me feel like I want to be an actor as well.
The Ventriloquist deserved a spot on here!
This list should be renamed The Joker and the top 19 greatest Batman villains.
which is unfortunate. joker is overrated and oversaturated. he's in my top 20 for sure but not number 1, not even top 10.
@@crobeastness but he is def the greatest. Just cuz he’s not everyone fav his impact on Batman and his family shows y he’s the greatest. Killing Jason Todd and paralyzing batgirl. Making his own joker war, turning him into his own nightmare (batman who laughs), poisoning kids and making sure kids see their parents die right in front of a powerless Batman. Killed talia ghul in the game. Turned tim drake into a joker. He’s done alot
for you, it's overrated, but the truth is, he's the best villain of all time. He has a great storyline, and even got his own movie.
@@Just-J2 the whole point of his character is that he has no storyline and no motive.
@@Just-J2 amen my fav character in fiction. Him and venom
The Joker MUST be number one.
Yes, he is unpredictable which makes him so delicious
It's literally impossible to predict the joker
@@swuavewrap8642 👍🏻yes, true
@@swuavewrap8642 no need to tell batgurrl that… 👩🦽
i disagree. hes at 12th place on my list
@@crobeastness Yea tbh for me hes like 6th
Penguin is more complicated than that. There're a lot of more canonical versions then ones of Gotham's and Batman returns (even though they're fabulous too). He deserves better then 9th place!
I would like to see a Penguin tv show discussing about his origin story and it would be so cool if Matt Reeves directed it as a Spinoff to the Batman like the Peacemaker.
@@mohamedfawzy5843 omg YESSS
A tv show discussing his orogin.
Its called gotham
@@sebvials802 Not every people watched Gotham tv show. Its a good opportunity for having some Batman villains receiving their own Spinoffs. The Joker also had an origin story in Gotham tv show and they made for him a solo movie that appeared to be a financial success.
@@mohamedfawzy5843you got your wish haha
There’s a doctor strange in DC and Marvel, a death stroke in DC and a Deadpool in Marvel, a Cat woman in DC and a Black cat in Marvel, a Darkside in DC and a Thanos in Marvel, a Wonder Woman in Dc and a Captain Marvel in Marvel. No matter what they think of there will be an exact match in the other universe
Out of the characters you have mentioned, only the cats and Deadpool/Deathstroke are exact matches. No one else is even close to being similar.
Marvel doesn't have a version of Clayface. In fact what many people don't know that there are four different Clayfaces. One of them being female. The most dangerous one in comics was Basil Karlo. He was the first Clayface
far as comparing Doctor Strange and Hugo Strange, i will quote Tiny Toon Adventures...
Buster and Babs: "no relation."
@@jamesstrain1631 They have Sandman his abilities is closer to Clayface, despite having sand superpowers.
@@titengods thanos is based off darkseid tho
It was a no brainer that Joker was going to be number one on this list, but I also really love Scarecrow as he's truly one of the most remorseless villains who always gets under people's skin
The Joker played by Heath Lager..
Hands down the all time greatest prostration of the Joker
Prostration? Lol
Mark hamill is the definitive joker.
@@willjohnboy When we're talking about live action Joker Heath Ledger comes at number 1. If that dude was alive, he would have played the Joker in Multiple movies and tv shows within the DCEU and maybe he could have received his own solo movie. Heath Ledger is born to be the Joker like RDJ as Ironman and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine.
@@mohamedfawzy5843 not disputing that
Honestly, I can’t pick between Mark Hamill, Heath Ledger and Cameron Monaghan
Excluding Harley & Catwoman was wise because they’ve grown more into antiheroes as time went on. Freeze oddly never really went down that route
It does further skew Batman's rogue gallery toward men.
Definitely Joker is no. 1 but Penguin will always be my personal favorite. There's something about a classy, umbrella-wielding mob boss that makes me yell "That's awesome "
Suggestion: Top 20 vigilante characters who are inspired by the Batman.
Joker 🃏 🤡- Green Goblin.
Bane- Kingpin.
The Riddler- Mysterio.
Clayface- Sandman.
The Penguin 🐧- The Owl 🦉.
Scarecrow- Marvel also has a Scarecrow.
Deathstroke- Deadpool.
Deadshot- Bullseye 🎯.
Two Face- Jigsaw.
Killer Croc🐊- The Lizard 🦎
Ras' AlGhul- The Mandarin.
Black Mask 😷- Red Skull 💀.
Mr. Freeze🥶- Blizzard❄.
“Gotham” was an unfairly treated series except for those of us who enjoyed all those villain origin stories. As philosophers like the late Joseph Campbell wrote (no direct quotes here) every great story has both a hero and an anti-hero (adversary) and a great journey that transforms them both.
Very underappreciated but it has its fans for sure I am one of the biggest ones of the series
Mad hatter such a great character
Hope he gets at least a co-villain role in this new trilogy.
we'll have to see how they write him.
they havent confirmed its a trilogy
@@crobeastness hm...they kinda did,indirectly.but yeah they also said it depends on this film succes.but im sure is gonna be 3 movies
@@SpectralSound. with the insane marking, it will for sure be a major success at the box office, could even be top 5 highest grossing of all time. But if the movie is say as bad as something like Batman & robin, no one will want to see a second or third. And yes, the trailers are phenomenal, but we have all been let down by Extremely hype trailers before.
Batman has the best catalog of villains hands down🦇
The big 5 core villains are Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler, & Two-Face. Next in line are Scarecrow, Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, Harley Quinn, Bane, Mad Hatter, Ra's al Ghul, Clayface, & Killer Croc. Additional top villains include Man-Bat, Talia al Ghul, Firefly, Black Mask, Deathstroke, Ventriloquist & Scarface, Deadshot, Talon, Hush, Punchline, and Mr. Zsasz.
I can’t believe that Hugo strange was only at number 20, I feel like he should’ve been in the top 10 since he is my favourite villain in Gotham because he helped create many villains like Mr freeze, Clayface and firefly
how did he help create firefly?
I feel like Arkham City *alone* should have put him higher.
And not only that he also knew Batman identity as well
I guess he's a big deal in the TV shows and video games, but I can't think of a single comic I've read where he showed up.
@@rokeYouuer recent comics ignore him. Hes great in the older stuff.
My top five favorites would be The Joker, Ra's Al Ghul, Scarecrow, The Riddler and Two Face, with The Penguin as an honorable mention. I feel like Hugo Strange should be ranked higher also.
The Joker and The Riddler is my favorite Batman villains all-time. This is great, keep up making the best list! 💚
Thanks! Will do!
Same
The Joker is easily the greatest villain of any comic brand. Definitely superior to everything else DC has to offer.
Ra's, Joker, and Bane were definitely the highlights of the Dark Knight trilogy and even stole the show from Batman IMO.
Batman villains are the best villains!!!
Definitely Oswald cobblepot slept on devito had me having nightmares as a kid over that role lol
lol
Let's face it, we're all hear to see who's in order from 20 to 2 since we all know who's number 1. 🃏
Yes the Joker is an Immortal being, he always comes back to make horrible troubles to Batman.
which is unfortunate. joker is overrated and oversaturated. he's in my top 20 for sure but not number 1, not even top 10.
Yes Heath Ledger and Mark hamill did a great job playing the joker my two favorite actors who play The Joker and you should also mention Cesar Romero from Batman 1966 and Jack Nicholson from Batman 1989

Joker obviously #1 but #2 should be Mr Freeze.
His reason d’etre is tragic.
The only problem is with his methods being to freeze things, how do you implement that into a film without it turning into the lampoon farce of Batman & Robin
It does present problems, but it didn't have to be that bad.
Mr freeze is a ok villain not really deserving of number 2 tho.
Killer croc and scarecrow are the ones I’ve always loved , hopefully there on this list
killer croc? why?
@@crobeastness mostly the concept of a humanoid crocodile turned fighter turned cannibal is really cool in my eyes , although the character was done awfully in 2016 suicide squad movie in the comics and cartoons etc he has brilliant representation
@@the324slayer4 I think his representation in the cartoons and video games make him look like a baffoon. He is pretty cool in the comics I will admit. I love Jim lees drawing of him.
I feel like Man-Bat should’ve been on the list.
Also, Cameron Monaghan's Joker as Jerome Valeska is underrated.
So true, he’s in the top 3 Jokers, the King is Heath Ledger, 2nd goes to Mark Hamill, 😊
Top 20 Greatest Spider-Man Villains!
Yesss 🕷
Of course #1 HAS to be our beloved, Joker~
He defined villains for generations!
which is unfortunate. joker is overrated and oversaturated. he's in my top 20 for sure but not number 1, not even top 10.
How come Gotham's version of Penguin and Riddler were actually really good.
Also, we need another live action movie with Scarecrow as the main bad guy.
They could do that for The BatMan 2
I like how all of the villains of the Joel Schumacher movies are in the top 10, but no clips were taken from those movies.
A little surprised about the order. Poison Ivy and Mr. Freeze above Two Face and Riddler was unexpected
Batman has Greatest villian catalog of all time.
Also peacemaker:
Yes Peacemaker kept swearing to Batman in his TV show🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Two-face is my favorite. I like the Arkham game where he clearly has two different personalities while in The Dark Knight it didn't really work as well imo (still a great movie tho)
1: Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow (Scared Inmates)
2: Arthur Fleck/Joker (Killed Jason Todd)
3: Bane (Broke Batman’s Back)
4: Ra’s Al Ghul (Leads the League of Shadows)
5: Slade Wilson/Deathstroke (Went to Oliver Queen’s house)
6: Edward Nigma/Riddler (Blew Up and Flooded Gotham)
7: Waylon Jones/Killer Croc (Tried To Drown Batman)
8: Selina Kyle/Catwoman (Stole Stuff)
9: Harvey Dent/Two Face (Held Gun To Gordon Family)
10: Oswold Cobblepot/Penguin (Stole Children)
11: Dr. Hugo Strange (Became Batman)
12: Mr. Freeze (
13: Harleen Quinzel (In Love With Joker)
14: Joe Chill (Murdered Bruce’s Parents)
15: Court of Owls (Took Over Gotham)
16: Clayface (Disquised Himself)
17: Mad Hatter (Obsessed With A Lady)
18: Poison Ivy (Poisoned Robin)
19: Deadshot (A Hit Man)
20: Victor Zsasz (Killed God Only Knows How Many)
HM: Black Mask, Calander Man, Man Bat, Professor Pyg, Ventriloquist and Scarface, Hush
Heath Ledger , forever will be remembered as the Joker , i mean THE JOKER
Agreed
Heath ledger sucks
@@Aaron17988 no he's not.
He's the best Joker.
Mark Hamill will forever be best over heath ledger in cartoons version out beats Batman movies
@@Graysepticeye anytime
also heath ledger joker wouldn't committed suicide like he did real life
Im so glad they covered gotham
Its very underatted
im just so glad watchmojo finally acknolwedging gotham. one of best batman shows period. They should do gotham villians list in future
The joker is one of the best villains of all fiction.
But he would be easily defeated in marvel universe
@@detyyggkkll8052 no
The Joker is always been my favorite Batman villain.
Honorable Mentions:
*Man-Bat
-Once a scientist named Dr. Kirk Langstrom, he injected himself with a serum from the secretions of bats to try to cure his own deafness. It works... but not in the way he had hoped. He becomes a human/bat hybrid monster known as Man-Bat. As far as I know, Man-Bat has yet to appear in live-action, though he does appear in Batman: The Animated Series, The Lego Batman Games, and Batman: Arkham Knight.
*Killer Moth
-I only know of him via his appearances in the Lego Batman video games.
*Firefly
-There are two versions of Firefly, but I'm going with the one more focused on fire. After a fire left Garfield Lynns with severe burns, he becomes the pyromaniac supervillain, Firefly. I know him from Batman: Arkham Origins and Arkham Knight.
*The Ventrilloquest and Scarface
-It has been debated who was controlling who? Arnold Wesker, or the dummy? They've appeared in various media and while Wesker was absent for the Arkham games, Scarface still makes appearances.
I was surprised that Man Bat or Ventriloquist didn't get a mention on the list.
I think Hugo Strange is often undersold in terms of how dangerous he can be, both to the public in general and Batman specifically. The fact that he is a bit more covert in comparison to most of Batman's Rogue's Gallery makes him a threat that is often not recognized until it is far too late. B.D. Wong gave a stellar performance of Strange in "Gotham."
Wouldn't Dr. Hugo Strange versus Dr. Stephen Strange make for an interesting DC/Marvel crossover?
I would put Riddler higher, and replace Joe Chill with Man bat or Ventriloquist, but overall I agree
Happy Poison Ivy made top 5 she is very underrated, and the Joker was no surprise at number 1, he’s just the perfect villain
The first time I ever Saw Batman get defeated was in Batman TAS in the hands of the ScareCrow. It was for me un-imaginable at the time. I was 10
Batman has the greatest villains out of everyone.
facts, they are otherworldly in their appearances, but deep down very relatable and sympathetic villains.
Agreed. His villains are very diverse and have (in general at least) an overall horror theme/feel to them
better than one piece villains? or sherlock holmes villains?
@@crobeastness I think they mean as far as the dc/marvel/comicbook landscape is concerned.
Also, I wouldn’t say Holmes has enough notable villains to declare it a rogues gallery
@@normansmith9009 ok, as my favourite character is batman, I will agree. But i do think joker is oversaturated. And Superman's and Flash's rogues gallery are underrated. It's not not just lex Luther and reverse flash, although those guys are also oversaturated. But I don't mind lex being oversaturated since he's seen as a regular, even good guy at times to public who is usually never thrown directly into jail.
Heath Ledger made the Joker iconic and was the perfect nemesis for Batman!RIP Heath thank you for giving us the best version of this top villian
Nolan said Tom Hardy as Bane deserves more recognition. He's right
Nolan shouldn’t have whitewashed Bane and cast Hardy to begin with. Bane’s Hispanic. Secondly, whatever that hilariously absurd voice Hardy chose to give him just shows how terrible Hardy is at voices and accents.
Batman has the best villains. They all challenge certain aspects that make up his character. That’s why they work so well. Just to name a few…
Joker - Challenges his morals
Bane - Challenges his strength
Scarecrow- Challenges his mind
Riddler- Challenges his iq
Poison Ivy- Challenges his lust
By far the best rogues gallery in all comics
I really love ScareCrow and Bane those are my favorite Villains
I feel like Hugo Strange is too far down…
Rip Professor Pyg, Firefly, Man-Bat, and Ventriloquist
The Joker #1 no shock and can't argue Two-Face always my favorite. Two-Face, Riddler and Freeze should been top 5 over Bane definitely
Fun Fact: Victor Zasz (a Nr 11) is the villain whom Batman admitted of hating the most, even more than the Joker himself.
And here is the reason why: Joker got his mind messed up by chemicals. Zasz was rich with loving family, like Bruce, and perfectly sane, but when he lost everything, he just decided to murder people as a new hobby for a sick and twisted pleasure.
For Batman Zasz represents the worst kind of evil - pure, unadulterated and completely remorseless.
