Dark Horizons:

A source for Batman on Film says that preliminary designs show him having "gray skin with lots of scarring" to encapsulate a general scarier look Nolan has planned. They add that the outfit will be "raggedy," like something he just threw together without stopping to make sure everything matched.

a-z hopes that means it's more like this design:

Something tells me you've never read a comic book. I've read comics a plenty that were very very "dark" in the context you're using it here.

He's got that Bride of Chucky look about him. I wanna see another image as that is at an unusual angle.

The Dark Knight.

I'm hoping the makeup isn't finished.

Oh well. I trust Nolan.

Yeah, an astonishingly great idea. Just make him look like two-times Two Face's bad side... (n)
The Joker is not scary cause he looks scary. Gothamites fear him cause he randomly just fucking kills everyone without rhyme or reason.

Is he going to fight Batman with that giant Rubix Cube?

God, why scars??? why do they have to have a reason for everything? thats what's cool about the joker, he has no clear origin. On looking back at Batman Begins (i enjoyed it at the time) it seems now far to po-faced and gone too far completely the other way. i hate the way everythings explained in it, and miss the romantic view that Button came with. Going out of yor way too make something quite stupid in theory slick and realistic ends up becoming boring as hell.

Once a Depiction veers toward Realism, each new detail releases a torrent of questions that exposes the absurdity at the heart of the genre. The more realistic superheroes become, the less believable they are. It's a delicate balance, but this much I know: Superheroes are real when they're drawn in ink...

Creator of the Fake Joker Pic Speaks Up
Source: Superhero Hype! April 23, 2007 --->http://www.superherohype.com/news.php?id=5558

No doubt everywhere you've turned online today you've seen speculation about a supposed picture of Heath Ledger as the Joker in Chris Nolan's The Dark Knight. Many thought it was an early test shot, but actually it was just a photoshopped pic by a fan with a little too much time on his hands. Don't believe us? Click here for his explanation. And the wait for the first official photo continues...

The Dark Knight opens in theaters on July 18, 2008.
