Batman: Three Jokers Issues 1-3 Comic Dub
Logan Toney for The Joker (The Comedian)
The Joker is a complicated but complex character. In this story, there are Three Jokers. The Clown, The Criminal, and The Comedian.
We are looking at the Comedian. The possible man who became the Joker all those years ago in the Ace Chemicals factory. The man who had one bad day and drove him to lunacy. As Batman puts it in this story: "There's something underneath that smile. A sadistic streak stronger than the others".
For his voice, Anthoney Ingruber and John Dimaggio's styles really struck out to me. I'm not looking for an impression. Your own unique voice for the character is what I'm looking for. A voice that is unique but fits the character.
(Cold with a hint of sadness) "I'm having dinner with... Myself... Heh..."
(Intimidating/Satisfied) "And then there was one. Take me in Batsy! I want to get off this crazy ride!"
(Monologue/Intimidating/Satisfied with a hint of anger) "Ha. I healed your greatest wound. So I can be your greatest pain. ME!!! I'll cut you. I'll hurt you. I'll keep twisting that knife until the day we both die together! (Maniacal laugh)
