With the sandbox in place, we're just lacking an appropriate image so here's some possible suggestions?

1.3 or 1.4 works

1.1 and 1.2 are too dark and unclear (I've seen the film and I had to look it up). 1.4 is the best of those because Would Hurt a Child is slightly more heinous nowadays than Would Hit a Girl, but it's not super strong.

If 1.3 looks familiar to anyone else, see Sinister Switchblade

I like 1.4 personally

[up]to be fair 1.4 is very close to the image on Birds of Prey (2020)

Personally number 1.4, Joker’s lacks umph factor and first two are to unclear.

[up] Those kind of lack an extra umph in my opinion. Something to go hey this character is irredeemably evil and heinous. Something 1.4 does with it being a kid.

[up][up] I'd go with 1.4.

Joker threatening an old man/senator is typical criminal behavior. And Jonah Hex one is just poor quality.

With Burke I did try and see if I could get a shot of him burning Hex's family alive but the family are only shown in the background.

If we're going with Black Mask, just pothole it to Birds of Prey (2020).

I like 1.3 the most because the previous two are too dark. I guess 1.4 also works, though it's kinda hard to tell exactly what he's holding (at least to me).

1.4, and pull from the Nightmare Fuel page.

I'd say the Black Mask one is probably the clearest. Maybe the TDK Joker threatening Gambol or the older gentleman would work better instead of him threatening Rachel.

[up] The Joker needs a higher standard than just threatening adults with a knife. I mean, we have Jokers who use an electric table to torture a child, Jokers who shoots and kill people, and Jokers that have bodies littered on the floor.

If he was holding a knife to a child, or is actually killing innocents (killing criminals doesn't really help sell him as a monster).

Here's the best I could do of the hospital explosion scene and this is about as best we can get of TDK joker aside from the knife scenes imo.

[up] That makes it look like the Joker killed himself in the explosion, which is somewhat confusing.

[up][up]Do we have a shot of the Joker outside of the hospital to replace the first or second one. Because that would make that one much better.

[up][up][up] Maybe replace the middle image with him walking in front of the hospital mid explosion before the big one? The middle image gives me the vibe the hospital's empty.
