The Dark Knight approaches
July 28, 2007
Check out the Dark Knight teaser trailer at whysoserious.com.
On loading the page, you can view the trailer or look at a “police report” from a recent publicity stunt during the San Diego Comic-Con. Click Here for “police report“.
On that police report page there are several links to other things; galleries, clues used during the game and another “police report” talking about the “death” of the Joker.
I haven’t been following this much, but from the little that I’ve picked up, it looks like this version of the Joker will be much more dark and a bit more realistic than previous versions. Note that I have not read The Dark Knight graphic novels that these are allegedly based on. Supposedly, this version of the Joker was not thrown/fell/dropped into a vat of chemicals but instead has a huge scar that looks like he’s “smiling” (see pic above if somehow you missed it). I’m assuming the scar and the event that led to it took a huge emotional toll on an individual that was already screwed-up, thus creating “the Joker” that we know, for the most part. The makeup is just part of his new persona.
