Joker Week - Part 2

Joker week continues, in memorial of the late co-creator Jerry Robinson.
Thomas Fummo
"Totally inspired by the Burton/Nicholson Joker with this one, I see his origin being a kind of mix between The Killing Joke and Batman: Stand-up comedian gets embroiled with the mob and ends up disfigured after falling in a vat of chemicals. I figured his skin may be bleached and his lips blood red, but any hair would be as good as gone. With the green gone, I removed all other colour and went with a pagliaccio/pulcinella black and white costume."

Let us know what you think, and stay tuned for more Joker art in memorial of Jerry Robinson tomorrow!

  2. This is a great design - definitely a unique take, almost worthy of being it's own character.

  4. It was well-deserved. This was a fantastic reinvention of a classic character.
