Warcraft was originally supposed to be a Warhammer 40K game, but Blizzard ended up not getting the license, so they created their own universe instead.
The Killing Joke is the closest thing to a canonical origin story, but like jordan said, DC doesn’t make it clear if that is official.
Personally, I like the idea of him not having a known backstory. It makes the Joker be to Batman what Batman is to most villains. The reader gets to know who Batman is, but to almost everyone in the DC universe, he’s an unknown person with unknown reasons for doing what he does. The Joker is that same thing for Batman.
BTW, comiclist.info is the new site where Charles is posting the weekly list that he used to post on gocollect. This week’s post is here: https://comiclist.info/2026/03/16/comiclist-new-comic-book-releases.html. That’s a nice UI on leagueofcomicgeeks.com, though.
For me: - Absolute Batman #16 (second printing, I wasn’t able to grab this one when it first came out) - Moon Knight #2 - X-Men #27 (I’ll finish this Danger Room arc, then probably stop picking this one up for a while)

A DRM system that makes the game run slower.
My very limited understanding of it is that the game is divided up into pieces, and each piece is then encrypted into a large, unreadable piece. These pieces are then decrypted back into their normal, readable state while you’re playing the game, which is a fairly CPU-intensive process.
It’s also part of the reason why game updates are so big. The developer can’t just send a small update to you, they have to re-encrypt the entire piece and send that to you.
And it’s also why, about a year after a game stops getting updates, you suddenly have to download one huge update that is the size of the entire game, even though this “update” contains no actual changes. It’s because the developer has stopped paying the Denuvo license for that game, so they’re now just replacing the encrypted pieces with the normal, unencrypted pieces.
