User blog comment:Numnum22/Disney characters similarities to other villains: Jafar/@comment-2175012-20180123135253/@comment-26971023-20180124135751

Well, most of these villains are evil sorcerers and some (Zarok, Rasputin, Zigzag and Kralahome) were once the royal advisor of the Royal Family. Also, just like the Joker, Jafar fights against a mortal vigilante and had a team up with Hades similar to the one between Joker and Lex Luthor, plus they do that maniacal laugh alot that annoys their serious counterparts. Some even had pets who aided them in their evil schemes.
