The Crow VS TDK Joker

[Freddy-Fan]

I’ve been thinking about the similarities between Brandon Lee and Heath Ledger’s accidental deaths (i.e., the fact that they occurred when both men were playing comic book characters wearing clown face paint), and I got to thinking: character-wise, who would win in a battle?

The Joker has experience against a dark/gothic avenger (i.e., Batman).

The Crow has experience against a crime lord with a fondness for bladed weapons (i.e., Top Dollar) and his gang of thugs. . .oh, and he has a mystical crow as well.

I like them both, but I am going to have to go with the Crow on this one.

I don't see how anyone could vote joker on this one.

it's been awhile since i watched The Crow, but didn't he die after they killed his crow (the actual crow)?

I think that was his character’s Achilles’ heal, in the film at least. I have not read the comic, but in the film, if I recall correctly, when the crow gets shot a bullet wound appears on Eric Draven's body indicating that he is not immortal after all.

that's what i thought. so basically what it comes down to is, could The Joker outsmart an actual crow? i'm going to have to say yes.

A Joker vs. God poll would still have Joker winning because he is what's hot right now.

In any event....

Supernatural > Insane.

The Crow takes this one.

It's as if you've read my thoughts on the matter verbatim. Bravo, good sir.

I agree. . .the Joker would win against the Crow, but he would not win against a major supernatural force like Pinhead.

Now, I kind of wish that I would have made this poll more about the characters in general (i.e., which do you think is the better "dark" comic character), rather than which characger do you think would win in a battle.

The Crow. The bird would just have to stay out of The Joker's sight. Haha...

I'm not voting here cause I can't recall that much about the crow, but I have to say this is a bit off base in my opinion.

Supernatural doesn't automatically win against normal means. We're on a Friday the 13th website, for example, a series with a time honored tradition (like most horror movies, actually) of using normal means to tackle a supernatural aggressor and often succeeding.

Supernatural ability may be an edge, but it isn't a win. The Joker is an extremely resourceful, clever, unpredictable and downright mean character, and someone using natural means with extreme skill CAN, in my opinion, defeat a lesser being who has some supernatural advantage. Besides, if the supernatural does exist in this universe, what's to stop Joker from taking advantage of that too?

I mean, let's see, who would win... a vampire, or Batman with a wooden stake? Welp, Batman ain't supernatural, but he'd till get that shit done without breaking a sweat.

If this is about acting, I like both films. Both acted their parts equally good.

"Here's an impression for you. CAW! CAW! BANG! ****, I'm dead!"

Just imagine Ledger's Joker giving that line. How awesome would that be? :P

Ha, ha. . .I never thought of that, that's hilarious! :D

Joker kicks major ass, but he's just a guy. The Crow is undead with regenerative capabilites... he'd kick Joker's ass. The best question would be Jason vs. the Crow, or Wolverine vs. the Crow. The question would be in one of those battles, who would be wounded quick enough before they could regenerate.

[The Dark Vampire]

I do think if Joker figured out his weakness The Joker would win but if not The Crow

However unlike most of The Crow's adversaries Joker wouldn't be intimated by him
