The Joker & Venom

Bio: As the portals opened up around the multiverse, the heroes of their worlds were not the only ones to notice. Gotham City and New York City, while known for their large size and succesful residents, were also known as havens for crime when their heroes weren't watching. Needless to say, the portals opening up did not go unnoticed. As the insane clown known as The Joker and the symbiotic madman known as Venom walked into these portals, hoping on finding a new way to cause problems for their respective archenemies of Batman and Spider-Man, they met each other face to face, and instinctively knew that the other would make a perfect candidate for a team. And good thing for them too, because they were not the only two fighters teaming up. Now, they were about to cause havoc and chaos in the world of Death Battle

Intro: Joker walks in, whistling and swinging a cane around, before tossing it aside and cracking his knuckles. "Ready to have some fun, buddy?" the camera then pans next to him, showing Venom with a grin on his face. "I'm always ready to have fun" Venom answers

THE JOKER...

Playstyle

Much as you'd expect from the clown prince of crime himself, Joker's moveset involves using his many gags and toys to trap the opponent and take control of them his way. His moves are almost all projectile attacks that are a lot harder to predict than they look. Unfortunately, Joker's not really much for a fist fight, so getting up close and personal is a good way to ruin his fun

Moveset...

-Joy Buzzer: Joker extends his hand to his opponent and says “Put her There”. If the opponent touches Joker, he will grab their hand and electrocute them with the joy buzzer on his hand, stunning them temporarily. A counter move, but one that can only stop melee attacks, not projecctiles

-Bang!: Joker pulls out a gun and fires at the opponent. The attack can be blocked, but depending on the button pressed, Joker can actually pull a fake-out and have the gun shoot a “BANG!” Flag before firing an actual bullet. A great surprise attack and a good way to make your opponent flinch

-Wind Up Teeth: Joker will toss some wind-up teeth onto the ground which are actually land mines that explode after a few seconds or after the opponent runs over them, knocking them into the air. Good way to set-up combos as well as giving some battlefield control

-Card Trick: Joker flings a razor-sharp Playing Card towards the opponent. It’s a fast moving projectile that deals chip damage when blocked, so it's a reliable projectile attack, if a little on the basic side

-Squirting Flower: Joker squeezes the flower on his coat that sprays acid towards the opponent. It has pretty decent range and can create a small stream for a few seconds as long as the button is held down

SUPER MOVE: Dying of Laughter

-Joker will throw a pie at the opponent, blinding them while he smacks them around with a crowbar. Once the opponent is able to remove the pie from their face, Joker slashes their face repeatedly with a knife before pulling out a gun and firing at their head point blank

VENOM...

Playstyle

Unlike Joker, Venom LOVES a fistfight. He's got plenty of endurance and almost all of his moves involve him walloping the enemy while he's in their face. Unfortunately, his speed is lacking, so trying to get close enough to enemies so that he CAN beat them down is easier said than done

Moveset...

-Venomous Web: Venom fires black webbing out of his hands towards the sky and will then swing towards his opponent. While it's mostly an approaching move, Venom will hurt the opponent if they're in front by kicking them

-Venomous Wrap: Venom fires black webbing out towards the opponent, wrapping them up. The attack does minor damage, but if the opponent does not block in time, or get rid of the projectile, they will be wrapped up, effectively becoming stunned, and must button mash or wriggle their way out. A great controlling attack

-Venomous Claws: Venom will perform three slow, but powerful, swinging strikes at the opponent. A great combo attack since it can effectively juggle the opponent if timed right, though the attack can be jumped over.

-Venomous Bite: Venom will create a large maw upward that will bite the opponent. If they are hit, they can then be slammed to the ground, basically letting Venom get a few free hits in on them. This is a great anti-air move, but it does need timing to be properly executed

-Venomous Bile: Venom will throw out a blob of black goo that will land on the ground in a puddle. If the opponent steps in the puddle, they will be tangled up as if they were hit with Venom Wrap. Works as a great trap and can help with the territorial control Joker can provide

SUPER MOVE: Symbiotic Strike

-Venom fires off a Venomous Wrap attack, only faster than normal, that wraps the opponent up until their eyes upward and their feet are all that's exposed. He will then jump into the air and perform a double-fisted hammer punch on the opponent and then begin a brutally long combo of strikes before attaching more webbing to the opponent and then sending them over his head and slamming them into the ground face-first.

TEAM ATTACK: Venomous Humor

-Venom begins the attack by wrapping up the opponent as Joker comes in swinging with a crowbar. Joker will keep smacking them with the weapon and then will shock them with his joy buzzer before Venom turns his hands into a large hammer and knocks the opponent sky-high. The two villains then will let out an evil laugh as the opponent lands face first onto a pile of explosives, which then detonate immediately as the two continue laughing

Rival Cutscene...

(Venom and Joker walk through a hangar with boxes all around the place. Joker is swinging around a cane like Alex from A Clockwork Orange and begins smashing some of the boxes as he does so)

Joker: Oh, so much destruction and so little time. How I wish I could keep having fun in this world

(Venom looks to the contents of some of the boxes, mainly weapons both modern and ancient)

Venom: Seems we've hit quite the cache here, haven't we?

Joker: Oh, certainly. Plenty of fun toys to play with and fun to be had.

(As Joker continue to smash more and more of the boxes, Venom stops moving and looks towards the rafters, a shadowy figure zooming past the camera)

Venom: Right. Although, we might want to get all of this stuff out now

Joker: Oh relax, would you? It'll spoil all the fun.

Venom: Fun...sure

(Venom keeps his eye towards the upper part of the hangar. Chains then come flying out of the side, which Venom reacts to quickly by grabbing them and pulling them towards him. A shadowy figure is pulled forward, who Venom slams into the ground. Before he can get another hit, however, said figure kicks him away. The figure is in a black and silver body suit like that of Venoms, but with glowing green eyes, no mouth, and a red cape attached to it. Venom stands back up as Joker turns to see the new face)

Joker: Well, looks like someone's come to crash the party!

Venom: This is why I told you we needed to get this stuff out of here

Spawn: Quite an interesting suit you have there. But it's nothing compared to mine.

(Venom and Spawn begin engaging in a fist fight before a shadow covers Joker)

Joker: Oh, perfect timing

(The clown jumps back in time to avoid being attacked by a different figure, this one in a dark colored suit with a black hood. His lower face was visible and his cape wrapped almost entirely around him as he stood up)

Batman: I should have known you would be here, Joker

Joker: Well, good to see you too, Bats, ol' buddy of mine. What say we let bygones be bygones, eh?

(Joker then reaches his hand towards Batman's, a Joy Buzzer on it, which Batman responds to by merely kicking Joker back towards Venom, who himself was knocked on the floor before the two stand up. Joker wipes off his mouth with the back of his hand)

Batman: Next time, you need to be quicker

Joker: Oh Batsy, I can promise you that there won't be a next time

(The two get into positions to fight the opponents they were facing as Batman and Spawn stand on opposite ends of the two villains before the screen fades away)

Ending Cutscene...

Thanks to their ruthless fighting and sheer creativity, Joker and Venom were more than capable of defeating everyone else in the world of Death Battle, killing anyone that couldn't get away. But with no one else to fight, Joker used this opportunity to get himself a new toy. By exploiting the symbiote's weakness to sound, he tore it away from the man formerly known as Eddie Brock and surrounded himself in the suit. With newfound powers added to his already surprising strength and skills, Joker became a fearsome being that no man could fight. His Joker venom was far more effective, infecting his enemies with a symbiote of their own that remained completely loyal to him. With this new power, and a purple suit to match, the one known as "Joker" was no more. He was now simply known as "Chaos".
