Yes, there is another new Joker picture out there, because when one gets released, it's inevitable that more will follow. The latest image from The Dark Knight comes courtesy of Wizard magazine, and has been thrown up by Coming Soon. We've seen Heath Ledger's Joker in the back seat of a car, and with his signature green vest, so now we've got the vest and classic purple coat. Unfortunately, he's looking even more aged in this picture, kind of like all of his face makeup began to wrinkle and crack after a long day of work. (Or like he's sporting a night facial mask -- those things always crinkle at the nose.) Still, he looks darn cool in the outfit, and they've done a great job of making him look like the maniacal Joker, but also within the somber darkness of Christopher Nolan's Gotham. You can click on the image to see it in its full glory.Hopefully now that a bunch of Joker pics have been released, showing everything from feet to faces, and we've seen Batman, Rachel Dawes, and Lucius Fox, we'll finally get to see what Nolan has made of the other guys. It's time we see Aaron Eckhart's Harvey Dent, Anthony Michael Hall's Mike Engel, and Eric Roberts' Salvatore Maroni...not to mention Michael Jai White's Gamble. Luckily, we're closing in on the 6-month push, so we should see lots more goodies soon.

to explain why his make looks cracked and wrinkled, Heath Ledger said in an interview that he puts the make up on, and from there he doesn't touch it after that, doesn't clean it up, doesn't shower, doesn't change his clothes, he just slips further into insanity, which i think sounds pefect!

I understand the 'grittier' visual look they are going for and were successful with on the last Batman by making the Scarecrow so uncartoonish. I get that but everytime I see these pictures of the 'new look' Joker, you know, I'm not feeling it. Joker has no resemblance to any Joker I can think of and looks just nasty to me. I know I won't be running to see this movie but you know, it'll all come out in the end.

The reason why his face looks cracked and wrinkled is because he never takes off his makeup.
