The Joker is perhaps the most famed comic book villain of all time. Count his appearances in paper, cartoons and a number of DC Comic remakes over the years and one thing about the crazed man is always the same – his chilling laugh. Off the back of 2019 film Joker, starring Joaquin Phoenix, Warner Bros. Studios has paid tribute to the character for the 80th anniversary in a new documentary.
