History

When The Joker gathered together all of Carl Grissom's ganglords together for a meeting after Grissom's murder, Vinnie Ricorso appeared as one of those ganglords. The Joker considered Ricorso someone who wanted to think for himself, and would question Joker's decisions. He was right. Always the first to become suspicous, Ricorso demanded why he hadn't heard from Grissom, causing Carmine Rotelli to question Joker as well. After Joker killed Rotelli witha powerful joy buzzer, and as The Joker's personal army, led by Bob the Goon marched in, Ricorso accused The Joker of being insane and wanted to leave. Later, Ricorso sought to challenge Joker's plan, going to Gotham City Hall to file an affidavit stating Grissom had instead given Ricorso all his businesses, exiting City Hall surrounded by overmuscled bodyguards and a lawyer. In anwser to reporters' questions, Ricorso stated that Grissom had asked him, as a personal favor, to take over his operations until Grissom returned. Ricorso's lawyer confirmed this, telling the press Grissom's signature was perfectly legitimate. The Joker and his mimes suddenly pushed their way to Ricorso. Joker explained that he had watched Grissom's dead hand sign the statement with his own blood with a certain quill pen. Joker yanked out a ridiculously large quill pen that must have been four feet long, then ripped off his hat, showing a horrified Ricorso the green hair underneath. Joker presented himself as Vinnie's "Uncle Bingo", then hurled the steel-tipped pen directly at Ricorso. Ricorso then fell, holding at the unlikely weapon that had sliced through his throat. Ricorso's lawyer and his men fled with the screaming crowd as The Joker's mimes opened fire with machine guns taken out of their satchels.
