![]() Joker maliciously cackles and spouts discontinuities and absurdities V soliloquizes and quotes Shakespeare, a Joker tied to an enormous and incomprehensible intellect and pitted against a foe so dark that the maniacal one of the pair is actually the hero. ![]() ![]() Of course, that’s not to suggest that This Vicious Cabaret is equivalent to the Joker's song or V to the Joker. This Vicious Cabaret of V for Vendetta’s second act and the humorous man-as-employee speech of his is even similar to the Joker’s song in Moore’s Killing Joke (released shortly after V's serialized beginning). Each of them sport an almost comical grin whilst sowing chaos, and each is flamboyant in dress (a purple suit here finding its counterpart in long hair and cape) and actions. Both came from backgrounds of chemicals and insanity the joker (depending on your origin story of choice), some kind of deviant who fell into a chemical vat, and V a man sorely abused and altered by hormonal testing at a concentration camp. ![]() In mannerism, the character he most resembles is the Joker. ![]()
