Joker Goons are goons that work for The Joker and his underlings in the Joker hero arc.
Lego Batman[]
In LEGO Batman: The Videogame, they appear as the main enemies in chapter 3 with the Joker Henchman. Like any other goon they wear grey pants and black beanies, but have purple shirts. Their weapon is a Pistol, of course, in style of a Tommy. In the DS Version, they are more detailed and look similar to the henchmen seen in the console version, except they still wear their beanies and have a different torso.
Lego Batman 2[]
In LEGO Batman 2: DC Superheroes, the thugs for Joker come in three different variants:
- Normal Joker Goons, which can be found common as a lackey for Joker and jobber for the heroes. They're not unlockable and can be only accessed through extra toggle in some missions.
- Mime Goons are the new Henchmen in this game working for the Joker. They're similar to the Joker goons disguised as mimes in the 1989 Batman movie, but they seem to be the sequel version of the Clown Goon from the first game.
- Clown Goons are normal Joker Goons but wear a red Afro wig on their head instead of a black beanie. All are allied and work with others like Riddler Goons and Two-Face Goons.
Lego Batman 3[]
The goons in LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham are similar to the ones in the second game in fact even mostly reused. The only difference is the mime thugs pants are now black and all carry guns. There is also a Space Joker Goon introduced that appears in mission 4 and 5. They’re quite slow unlike the others, but this is because they were designed for space-themed uses.
Variants[]
- Joker Henchman
- Joker Bodyguard
- Fear Goons
- Clown Goon
- Mime Goon
- Space Joker Goon
Trivia[]
- A running gag in the game seems to be that they get regularly abused by the Joker and his lieutenants:
- In the opening cutscene, the Joker throws his goon out of his helicopter, laughs at him and makes him hit the building with the climbing ladder.
- The Mad Hatter pushes one into a vat of chemicals before his boss battle.
- Harley Quinn knocks a bunch of goons off the roof of the Gotham Cathedral with her acrobatics before knocking them down with her butt like bowling pins in the cutscene before her first boss battle in the last level.
- On the DS version, Joker uses one of the goons to test his Joker gas on him, virtually killing him.
