Here's a thought: Imagine if The Joker was actually mixed raced? Would the origin story change? If so, then how?

Here's my answer.

The story follows the depressing life of Jackie Napier, whose love for alcohol and gambling cost him dearly; a luxurious home, the affection of his beloved and the chance of living a better, happier life.
After getting fired from work by his incorrigible boss, Jackie is directed by a young university drop-out to the nearest underground casino for his most challenging game ever. However, a discovery of an unknown secret literally sends him over the edge, awakening his suppressed darker side; a persona that will shake the foundations of the entire city; forever.

A FAN FICTION Novella inspired by 'Batman - The Killing Joke' graphic novel by Alan Moore, drawn by Brian Bolland.
Based on 'Batman', directed by Tim Burton and 'The Dark Knight', directed by Christopher Nolan 
Also based on the 'Batman: Arkham City' videogame, developed by Rocksteady Studios, released by Warner Bro's Interactive Entertainment.

Insanity by JordanneThrussell
28 parts Complete
What if Joker had a daughter? One raised by Gotham... She was abandoned. She's angry. She want's revenge. She hates her father... But does this mean she works with the side of the Angels? Well, let's just say, there's a reason her name is Sanity. --Note-- This story is going to be re-written eventually, while this story will be up until the other version is finished (I won't be publishing it until then) this story will be deleted once that is done. There will be notice for that, so you know what is happening, but chances are you may need to re-read the book a second time following this. Especially, since I plan on actually having a sequel to this one complete eventually. --As a side note-- Only 5 characters are my own: Sanity, Ryu, Avalon, Jeremiah, Genevieve. All other characters belong to DC, I cannot stress that enough. In addition to this I have also used actual quotes from the Original Comics for the characters that have said them, as well as used some of the same origins/storylines to give the other characters (DC's) more of an identity e.g. 'Death in the Family' storyline// Where Joker kills Jason... Or 'A Killing Joke' storyline//Barbara getting put in a wheelchair and the Joker's Origin... Finally, the Joker's 'real' name//'Batman Mask of the Phantasm'. There are other parts as well but those are the main ones and a few of the examples. (I don't know if the 'Batman Mask of the Phantasm' is the actual title to the animated movie but it is close enough, I think.) Won 2nd place in the 2015 undiscovered contest.

The Joker has always been open about his feelings to the Bat, but Batman ignores the insane remarks, until he receives a letter and decides to try a new approach. And then things spiral out of control. Jason comes for a visit and the question on Bruce's mind is: Who's the real monster here?  ─── ο½₯ ο½‘οΎŸβ˜†: *.☽ .* :β˜†οΎŸ. ─── Batjokes.

Will You Be My Daddy? ~Joker Fanfiction~ by Gingy484
62 parts Complete
What would happen if the Joker turned a four year old girl into a loyal and merciless killer? Joker meets a little girl on the street and she asks if he will be her daddy. He quickly dreams up a scheme to cause chaos with the little ragamuffin. However, despite his attempts to make the girl the perfect murderer, she is too sweet and giggly to focus on anything he tells her and ends up sidetracking him and making him laugh. He finds that he is using the plot as an excuse to have the girl around. But what happens when his girl is threatened by other villains? Will he defend her? Or what if she fails in his evil plot? How will Batman react to Joker's plan? *****TW: Attempted sexual assault of a minor in chapter 1-does not get very far but description can be jarring, so stay safe******* This story is rated PG-13, at least by me, for cursing, violence, and other mature themes and ideas. Obviously no good Joker fanfiction is going to be rated G. Read at your own risk, and don't try to report this book if you don't take this warning seriously. Know yourself and your limits. For real, if it's not appropriate for you, just don't read it, don't send hate. By the way, according Wattpad guidelines, stories are considered mature if: scenes of sex, graphic violence, or self-harm are depicted or if the media contains nudity or other inappropriate content. So cursing does not necessarily a mature story make. I own the right to my character Madeline and the plot associated with her story. I do not own any of the characters that belong to the DC Comics universe. This fanfiction will use the Jared Leto Joker as the primary source of physical inspiration, but Heath Ledger's Joker is the ideological muse here, as well as quotes and themes from other Jokers, perhaps even Gotham's Jerome Valeska. -Started June 2017- -Completed November 2018-

This is my own personal version of how our lovable Dr. Harleen Quinzel fell in love with the psychopathic clown known as The Joker. This will be a dark story. I mean, it is about Joker and his story isn't a pretty one. There will be dark, mature themes in this book. It is not for the faint of heart. That being said, if you are not comfortable with this, then skip those parts. I will have them marked, and I will leave subtle hint, so you get the basic gist of what happened. I do not own any of these characters or the various original stories!! I just made my own remake of it. All rights go to the DC Universe and the creators of these awesome people. Thank you for trying out this story. I'm sorry if the parts that are from Joker's POV are terrible, but I tried to get as close to his twisted personality as possible. It isn't exactly easy to predict what the most unpredictable character ever made would say and do. I mostly went off of the movie scenes for his character. Please be nice to each other, and no rude comments. I may have a few spelling errors, so if you let me know, I will try to get to them. I will be here to answer questions on things if I haven't cleared them up enough. Again, thank you for trying out my story. Now, to the story!
