Funko Pop The Joker | DC Comics figures

The Joker (The Dark Knight)

A new generation Joker

Funko has therefore represented the Joker here with the character’s characteristic outfit but in a more modern version and with less vivid colors in line with the darker style of Christopher Nolan’s films. He wears purple pants with tone-on-tone stripes and his characteristic green jacket and a slightly brighter purple jacket with matching gloves. In one hand, he holds the card of the Joker, the character he is inspired by. At the head level, we find his very white complexion with this wide and red smile stretched by his scars. His eyes are circled with black and we find his green and half-long hair styled backwards.

A mysterious villain

The Joker is one of the most popular and famous super-villains in the DC Comics universe, especially in Batman. He is also the villain of the first film of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy. In this version, the Joker is a very enigmatic character. We know almost nothing about his past, neither his name, nor what drives him to crime, nor what caused his famous scars extending his mouth in a disturbing grin. His goal seems to be to cause chaos, attacking the underworld and killing people in what seems to be a random manner. The only thing we know is that he is obsessed with Batman and very hostile towards him, so much so that he has stated that he will kill one person every day until he reveals his true identity.
