I always wondered what the Joker would be like in contemplative moments...maybe swimming in ideas for his latest scheme. I feel the character is always more complex and multi-layered than how he can often be portrayed. I also feel there can be more than one 'look' for this super bad-ass character...I wanted to sketch a 'portrait' of the man you would believe to beat Batman.

an excellent piece, this is a much better joker than that heath ledger nonsense.
did you draw this when you were 12? if so it's dope...
Hey thanks ash...altho, I didn't mind the Heath Ledger version either!
heh, gotta love the courage of an anonymous comment!
Thanks!
Hey Joel,
I really like this piece, especially because you didnt make the Joker laugh or give him his crazy smile. The way you drew him makes him look kind of dangerous in a way he isnt being too often portraied. I like that.
To be honest, Ilove the Heath Ledger (which actually was a Lee Bermejo "Joker - look").From what Ive seen so far it was the best fitting look.
However great piece.

Yea I wanna try a couple more studies with Joker this way..it's interesting to try and convey different behavior and or attitudes

I'm looking at it and all I can hear is "And welcome, to Gourmet Cooking with Vincent Price. Tonight.....".
