    History

    Corrupt businessman Curtis Base had decided to turn to a full life of crime and replace whom he believed to be one of the best and most recognizable villains -- The Joker. Believing the original Joker dead - after the events described in "A Death in the Family"- he began a crime wave with a series of gag-based murders.

    Unfortunately for Base, the original Joker was merely injured and traumatized, not dead. Base and the original Joker ended up battling for the exclusive right to be called the Joker. The fight between the two ended as Batman intervened and Base attempted to replicate the accident that created the Joker by leaping into a vat with corrosive chemicals.

    Unfortunately for him, the acids in the mixture were far more concentrated than those that originally bleached the Joker's skin and turned his hair green - and simply dissolved him altogether. Unsurprisingly, nothing has been heard from him since.

    Powers and Abilities

    Paraphernalia - various weapons meant to appear funny, including a pack of specially-trained shaggy dogs and a wagonload of old chestnuts. Apparently he also used a variation of the Joker's smiling venom.
