‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ combines the title character’s murder trial with a poorly concocted musical. There are videos and writings in which psychologists and psychiatrists attempt to analyze and diagnose comic book characters’ mental wellness. It’s not surprising many of these heroes and villains have some form of disorder or psychosis that is often more complex than just being a psychopath or narcissist.
