About Joker

The Joker is Batman’s archenemy in the DC comic series. Once a common criminal named Jack, he was pushed into a vat of chemicals by Batman, scarring him permanently with the bleached skin, green hair, red lipped visage of the Joker. The Joker is a gang leader, often accompanied by his on-and-off-again girlfriend Harley Quinn. He commits his crimes for amusements and jokes with razor-sharp playing cards and poison squirting lapel flowers. Originally played by Cesear Romano in the television series, the role Joker has also been portrayed by Jack Nicholson, Mark Hamill and Heath Ledger.

Dressing up as Joker

Tell me something, my friend. You ever dance with the devil by the pale moonlight? The Joker is always dressed to the nines in his iconic bright suits, green hair, and clown face with a permanent smile. Try a colorful red or yellow double-breasted zoot suit with a pair of two-toned shoes to match the Joker’s quirky yet sharp taste. Add a poison squirting flower to kill any ill-behaved henchmen. Get his toxic chemical scarred look with a quality latex mask that depicts his bleached skin, ruby red lips and wild green hair. For pure authenticity, apply some face paint in the Joker style and use some electric lizard hair color. Grab Harley Quinn and you are ready for a night out destroying the city of Gotham, unless that pesky do-gooder in tights, Batman, shows up.
