Short answer

The Joker character page on DC's official site is at dc.com/characters/the-joker. DC uses dc.com as its main domain. Older dccomics.com character links forward to dc.com.

Check the address bar before you copy anything. The domain must read dc.com. A page on dccomics.com still resolves, but it redirects.

What changed

  • DC moved its main web hub to dc.com in 2024. Comics, characters, and news now sit on that domain.
  • Character entries live under /characters/. The Joker slug is the-joker.
  • dccomics.com URLs forward to the matching dc.com page.

Facts listed on the page

First appearance: Batman #1, cover date Spring 1940. Creators credited: Bob Kane, Bill Finger, and Jerry Robinson. The entry lists the Joker as a Batman adversary based in Gotham City.

How to confirm the current URL

  1. Type dc.com into the address bar.
  2. Open the Characters section.
  3. Search for Joker.
  4. Copy the address from the browser. It will start with dc.com.

Third-party pages

Fan wikis, retailer listings, and news posts also carry Joker pages. Those are not DC. The domain differs. A page on fandom.com or a store is not the publisher's page.

What is not known

DC edits site structure without notice. Slugs change. If dc.com/characters/the-joker fails, treat the first result on dc.com search as the current page.
