I need some help here.  I have been rewatching Batman: The Animated Series and Baccano and I found myself having a hard time deciding something.  Which villian was more insane or crazier?  Joker or Ladd Russo?  Well, I decide to turn to you guys for help and I thought it stir up in an interesting converstation.

So, to help you think and judge, here's some clips of each villian:

Joker: (Not the best clips of his insaneness [Is that a word], but we all know him well enough)

Ladd Russo of Baccano

There are other scenes of Ladd, but... ah... I don't think I can show them, especially when he smashes a guy's face in with his fists because he doesn't know who the boxers he mentioned are.

So yeah, who do you think is crazier?

We live in quite an interesting age. You can tell someone's sexual orientation and level of education from just their interests.

Ladd Russo, just because, although clealy insane, the joker had some sort of logic and reasoning to him. Ladd...clearly has major issues.

God the Worms

Insanity level...I'd say equal, maybe Russo for being more of a loose cannon. The Joker is absolutely random in everything that he does, but he is also much more intelligent. He can get inside people's heads. At times he is a fighter, at times he is succumbed by the slightest bonk on the head. I think the Joker actually makes less sense, so it is really a toss up.

Also, Russo does have an attachment...of sorts with that fiance he promises to kill...but loves deeply. The Joker, more often than not, could care less about Harley...unless she tries to kill him...hahahaha!
