    I agree, but there seemed to be too much of a reliance on the most recently incarnation of the Clown Prince. Yes, Ledger's version of the Joker was amazing, but there is a lot that can be done with the character.

    Delicious compilation as always. There is an B&A since H. Ledger Joker´s performance.
    Never before a joker performance inspired so many amazing characters.

    Great collection, but you omitted my favorite, Brian Bolland's artwork from The Killing Joke when a very humanized Joker disguised as The Red Hood falls into a vat of chemicals and 'becomes' The Joker: http://dailypop.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/com…
    That, to me, is essential Joker.

    A great addition Zag!

    Thanks, I was shocked to not see it included. This is what immediately comes to mind when I think of Joker (followed closely by Jack and Heath, of course). If you haven't read The Killing Joke, you're missing a BIG piece of the Batman puzzle.

    There was an old concept of joker that they make people happy and laugh but after batman joke concept is being changed now jokers are concerned to be bad and scary.

    Creativity is what these artwork explaining, looks so horrifying and looks innovative by their skills. Coolest part is this makes me irresistible to give comment on it.
