The most common interpretation of the character is that he is disguised as the criminal Red Hood and pursued by Batman. His resulting disfigurement led him to adopt the name "Joker", from the playing card figure he came to resemble.
Detective Comics #168 (1951) introduced the Joker's first origin story as Red Hood: a criminal who, during his final heist, vanishes after leaping into a vat of chemicals to escape Batman.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice may be the first time fans have seen the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel go head-to-head on the big screen, but it's certainly not the only time they've watched Bruce Wayne's parents die.
In comic books the Joker's father looms semi-large in the super-villain's loose backstory, but in Joker—the new origin story in theaters Friday—it's his mother who takes center stage. Penny Fleck (played by Frances Conroy) is a meek, sickly woman who relies on her son, Arthur (Joaquin Phoenix), to take care of her.
While many moments in “Joker” can be attributed to Fleck's descent into madness, none is quite as stinging as the is-he-or-isn't-he aspect of his relationship with Bruce Wayne's father, Thomas. Fleck's mother, Penny, once worked for Thomas Wayne.
The Joker possesses no superhuman abilities, instead using his expertise in chemical engineering to develop poisonous or lethal concoctions and thematic weaponry, including razor-tipped playing cards, deadly joy buzzers, and acid-spraying lapel flowers.
The Joker is a supervillain created by Bill Finger, Bob Kane, and Jerry Robinson who first appeared in the debut issue of the comic book Batman (April 25, 1940), published by DC Comics. In his comic book appearances, the Joker is portrayed as a criminal mastermind.
The two most often told are: 1) Bruce's parents hired him away from the British royal family and 2) Alfred's father, Jarvis Pennyworth, requested on his deathbed that Alfred continue in his stead serving the Waynes. 4. Family: Alfred has a daughter, Julia Remarque. Her mother is war heroine Mademoiselle Marie.
"Fight Club," Batman-style
Rocksteady, however didn't really lie. In "Arkham Knight," the Joker is actually dead. The evil clown you encounter is in fact a hallucination, a consequence carrying over from the conclusion of "Arkham City," where Joker infected Batman with a toxic sample of his own blood.At the end of Joker, one of the people in a clown mask, inspired by Fleck, murders Bruce's parents as they're leaving a show—echoing the real Batman origin story. The film is set up perfectly to have a sequel that introduces Batman—Pattinson's or otherwise.
In his comic book appearances, the Joker is portrayed as a criminal mastermind. Introduced as a psychopath with a warped, sadistic sense of humor; the character became a goofy prankster in the late 1950s in response to regulation by the Comics Code Authority, before returning to his darker roots during the early 1970s.
He is the unnamed killer featured during the opening credits and a flashback later on, both of which show him killing the Waynes. Near the end of the 2019 film Joker, Thomas, Martha and Bruce Wayne are confronted by a rioter (portrayed by an unknown extra) in an alley wearing a clown mask who is presumably Joe Chill.
