* MadeOfIron: It looks like one of The Creeper's abilities is this, as he survives a fight with Joker's goons, Harley, and Joker (even taking a concussion-inducing hit to the head). Yet, when Batman returns him to his Jack Ryder personality, he seems to be completely fine.

* {{Irony}}: Harley considers the Creeper an AbhorrentAdmirer, despite that he has attraction to her and is willing to shower her with the attention the Joker so withholds. Meanwhile, she's loyal to the narcissistic Joker, who only shows her "affection" when he suspects someone else will steal his girl away. On top of that, he's apparently willing to believe her this time that this isn't the case, and it's implied he only immediately shoved her away so she doesn't get caught in the explosion he's about to cause.

** The Creeper isn't actually evil, just crazy -- however, when he visited a thrift store for his costume he actually ''paid'' for the goods just like a normal customer (using Jack Ryder's credit card) instead of just running off with them.

* StylisticSuck: The dramatization of the Joker's origin leaves a lot to be desired. The Batman costume used resembles a low-budget version of the original 1939-40 Batman outfit, complete with long ears.

* MorallySuperiorCopy: Ryder is doing a [[{{Dramatization}} reenactment]] of the Joker's origin when the Clown Prince decides to crash it with Smylex gas to present his own version of events, with Ryder taking his role. Result; a bizarre-looking lunatic, but as Ryder was a decent, compassionate man before his transformation, he became a CloudCuckoolander IdiotHero as opposed to Joker's deranged sociopathy. From a production standpoint, the crew decided to introduce Creeper the DCAU, had trouble designing him as he kept looking like the Joker, and decided to just run with it
