I vaguely remember a quote from some comic writer - maybe Alex Ross in his art book - that he's immortal. Dunno how valid that is, though it kind of would fall in line with his vampiric look.
What I always liked about the Joker was the fact that he didn't have any obvious superpowers, or was even that good of a fighter. He has his dark comedy, his immense homicidal cruelty, his schemes, and his army of thugs; that's it. It was always very satisfying for me in the first Batman movie or TAS when Batman would finally fight through Joker's traps and henchmen and plant that one sweet punch that would send Joker flying, because you could always see that 'oh shit' realization on the Joker's face when he remembers he doesn't stand a chance in hell of going toe-to-toe with Bats. This is part of the reason that, for me, the big Joker fight in Arkham Asylum was kind of a letdown, and the big Joker fight in Arkham City was so satisfying: --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. ...

I think his biggest strength is his unpredictability and, in a weird way, his complete lack of powers. The old Batman/Superman animated series crossover (as well as his appearance in the first Legion of Doom-esque team-up in Justice League) showed this off well. In the crossover, he nearly kills both Superman and Lois because Superman didn't take him seriously and tried to deal with him like a normal criminal. So when the Joker throws down a bag full of marbles, Supe's not really expecting them to be grenades.

This is one thing that the Nolan film did best: Joker is powerful in TDK because he's the only person with absolutely nothing to lose. He's an incorruptible agent of chaos.

What makes The Joker a powerful villian? As Batman's primary arch-nemesis, Joker has the same reality-dodging plot armor gimmick. Instead of "time to plan", any time Joker is off panel he can reappear with some ridiculous troll attempt of out nowhere. That's how he is written, to contrast with Batman. --- Bite me like one of your French rolls. http://ultraimg.com/images/2016/11/11/xWp0.gif http://ultraimg.com/images/2016/11/11/xWpz.gif ...

He really shouldn't be. One of the things I liked most about Batman, The Animated Series was that it treated villains according to how much of a threat they'd logically be rather than respecting their status. The more famous adversaries had more appearances -- with the notable exception of The Riddler whom they rarely featured due to the difficulty of coming up with riddles -- but the threat the posed was based entirely around what type of threat they'd logically be. Penguin was a jobber and Batman could only beat Clayface by the skin of his teeth. Joker was a B+ threat on his best day and a flat C on his worst.
I like that approach a lot more than having a world full of demons, monsters, ninjas, mafioso, etc., and treating a clown like the greatest threat that Batman has ever had because, gasp!, he thinks on his feet instead of having a predictable pattern. It is just so forced when they try to make Joker the man to beat. ... Copied to Clipboard!

He has no super powers correct? Neither does his archnemesis. Patty_Fleur posted... And it's not like he has martial arts training like batman either? It depends on the writer; sometimes he is a capable hand-to-hand combatant. However, most of the time, his plans hinge on not fighting Batman directly. He likes taking hostages, setting bombs, giving Batman ultimatums, etc. The reason he is dangerous is because he is incredibly unpredictable and doesn't really ever have the same goal. Sometimes, he wants to murder a classroom full of boy scouts, other times, he just wants to make Batman crack a smile. ... Copied to Clipboard!

You know, I hated the second Christopher Nolan batman movie. I mean how did I'm not gonna go as far as to diminish Ledger's performance, which carried the movie and was rightfully acclaimed. But yes, in a flick that became such a success because of how real and grounded it felt compared to most superhero movies, the Joker's schemes in TDK were highly implausible. They also rob him of any credibility as far as his whole 'do I really look like a guy with a plan' schtick, because every little action and set-piece he creates would have required a mind-boggling amount of logistics and pre-planning. Which is actually fine by me, because I always saw the character (at least in TDK) as a one-dimensional liar who has zero conviction in anything he says, and would say and do anything just to keep the chaos going. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. ...
