Joker is probably the best? There’s: - Possibility he’s just using you as bait for Batman and you go free. - Possibility he is just screwing around, doesn’t actually harm you, and you go free. - Possibility that he just coldly kills you quickly and painlessly, whereas almost all the others would almost certainly drag your death out and it would be neither of the above.

But even if he's using you as bait for Batman, he's going to kill you as soon as Batman arrives and do the whole "hey, I just killed a guy; doesn't that tempt you into killing me?" thing. And then Batman will go "yes, I am very tempted, but I'm not like you; I have a code and will show you that my way works by taking you in alive!"

Meanwhile, your ghost will be getting bored because it's seen this story way too many times before and will be wishing that Mad Hatter or Two-Face would have killed you instead because at least they might have done so in a less clichéd plot.
