* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: He manipulates the clowns to shoot each other after their part in the opening bank robbery in this order:
##Dopey and Happy are on the roof, breaking into the alarm box. Dopey hijacks the silent alarm. Once he does so, Happy shoots him in the back at point-blank range with a suppressed pistol.
##Happy grabs Dopey's bag and runs down to the vault, which he drills into. Once he opens the vault, Grumpy shoots him with a pistol.
##Grumpy loads the money, then he and Bozo (actually the Joker) move the money in duffel bags to a spot by the door. Grumpy then draws his pistol on "Bozo", expecting Bozo has been ordered to shoot him. But Bozo says [[WhamLine he kills the bus driver]]. Before Grumpy can contemplate, a school bus bursts through the doors and runs over him.
##The bus driver helps Bozo / The Joker load the money into the bus. Once done, the Joker shoots him with his automatic pistol.
**Even the mob bank manager is horrified at the Joker's MO, leading to this exchange:

* CombatSadomasochist: He obviously enjoys hurting and killing others, but also deeply enjoys watching Batman's JackBauerInterrogationTechnique even while [[spoiler: Batman is beating him half to death]]. In fact, he's always deeply disappointed [[spoiler: each time Batman ''won't'' kill him]].
* ConsummateLiar: The Joker is an expert at this. How good is he? He's so good that one "incorrect" claim of his made many members of ''the audience'' believe that bad writing was responsible, even when he was clearly lying. [[spoiler:Specifically, he tells Dent he acts randomly, without a plan, yet he repeatedly demonstrates the use of plans (the bank robbery and the clowns shooting each other; he and his men impersonating the honor guard in an attempt to assassinate the mayor; his actions during the car chase on Wacker Drive), and a gift for improvising. In fact, ''it was one of those plans that got him into Dent's hospital room in the first place''. Many people thought that he was telling the truth, and the ''writers'' had screwed up.]]
* TheCorrupter: His gift isn't simply in causing chaos, pain and grief. It's bringing out the capacity for causing chaos, pain and grief ''in others''; ensuring his actions have an immense ripple effect, and that even if you kill him, he's won in principle.
--> '''Joker''': It wasn't hard. You see madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push! [''laughs hysterically'']

* CrazyPrepared: Selina is GenreSavvy enough to know that Stryver and the other guys are going to kill her after she hands over the fingerprint slide at the bar. So she creates a very clever escape plan after acquiring Bruce's prints: she seduces a Congressman who was leeching over her at the Harvey Dent Day party (which isn't too hard for her). A few nights later, she gets him drunk, and takes him to the bar with her, and sits him down at the counter. Then she meets with Stryver at another table, and stalls long enough that one of Stryver's associates puts a pistol to her head. She then pulls a cell phone out of her purse and tells Stryver to hit the send button. Then when Stryver draws his pistol GangstaStyle and prepares to shoot Selina, she just slyly reveals that her "date" is the Congressman, and she's just tricked Stryver into using the man's cell phone. On cue, tires screech to a stop outside, and Selina takes advantage of the others being distracted by the noise to attack. She grabs Stryver's pistol and kills two henchmen with just seconds to act before the SWAT team smashes through the front doors with a battering ram, at which point she screams to act like a distressed captive. Then while the SWAT team and patrol officers are chasing the other thugs and Stryver out the back door, she saunters out the front door and past Blake, then uses the confusion to escape.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Selina's dark black clothing and brunette hair are a very good match
