If you've always dreamed of being kidnapped by Batman's psychotic clown archenemy the Joker, Mark Hamill can make that happen for you.

The iconic Jedi master, who is also the celebrated voice of Joker in the animated Batman universe, left a voicemail message in-character on the comic book artist Jim Lee's phone.

The message is just creepy enough to convince would-be callers that their friend is actually kidnapped. And if your outgoing message isn't to make your friends think you're in grave danger, then what is it for?
