I liked the bad guy called Red Hood most when he fell into the chemicals and became The Joker. He called himself that because he thought he looked like the Joker from his card game and realised that he can invent lots of gadgets (like laughing gas and poison).

I really enjoyed reading this book and learning about The Joker. My favourite part of the book was when The Joker met Harley Quinn.

I liked the bit where it said the Joker was originally the Red Hood - I didn't know that. The Joker was my favourite character. I would, it was funny.
