not feeling the visuals so far, he better put on one hell of a performance!!!
This should fit right at home with the big city, counter culture, anarchy revolt , or crazies taking over, adding fuel to middle america fear and paranoia that allows whites to trick themselves into believing they are the victims..
Between this crazies bullshit and the fucken zombie apocalypse, racist (in their minds)have an irion clad alibi to stack up on weapons for defense
, with out mentioning their true fear, us Blacks....

I approve...
Looks like that Grant and Jim Lee Joker version doesn't it?
i think he is going for more punk rock anarchist than sticking to source material
Man.... What? I just came here to see the joker, a comic book character.This should fit right at home with the big city, counter culture, anarchy revolt , or crazies taking over, adding fuel to middle america fear and paranoia that allows whites to trick themselves into believing they are the victims..

Exactly, to me he is a little to cartoonist, a guy with no money no powers no gadgets or guns and only power is being crazy.. I don't even know what the fuck he wants.. But thats another argument..
Getting back to the original point, are we are to expect the government to spring him out of jail to work for Suicide Squad or some how he escape to fight against them...
In my head I am trying to figure out what is so special about the Joker that the regular cops, who have actual guns can't handle.. And please don't say an endless supply of flunky minions, because to me that act is so tired and overplayed...

This will possibly be the worst Joker in history...
I don't care for the look right now but it's far too early to say something like that.
‘Suicide Squad’: Jared Leto’s Joker Officially Revealed
Batman fans let their imaginations run wild about the version of The Joker that Jared Leto and director David Ayer would create for Suicide Squad, but it’s safe to assume even the most original ideas and outlandish concepts have been outdone, now that the first official image of the Clown Prince of Crime has been revealed.
Green-haired, pale-skinned, heavily tattooed and boasting a grin that is sure to inspire nightmares, fans finally have a full look at Leto’s Joker – and while the film’s gritty spin on DC Comics’ villains may not be for every comic fan, we can assume this take on Batman’s arch-nemesis will be one for the history books.
Clearly, no amount of nods to the original comic book villain or even candid photos caught on set could have prepared the world for such a radical take on The Joker. Fans may have seen numerous reports of Leto’s villain casting aside makeup or an eccentric three-piece suit in favor of bleached skin and scars from his life in the criminal underworld, but seeing them in the flesh is something else entirely.
As ever, subtlety isn’t what The Joker is known for; the tattoos of manic laughter, toothy grins, a jester capped skull, a ‘J’ beneath his eye, playing cards and “Damaged” across his forehead (and what looks to possibly be a “SMILE” across his ribs) encapsulate the fragmented and extreme personality every incarnation of the villain requires.
Some may immediately dismiss the tattoos for being too ‘on the nose,’ but the die-hard comic fans will take it as a sign that as much as Ayer – known for grounded, hard-hitting street-level crime stories – may adapt these comic villains to a new style and universe, the source material is quite literally tattooed all over them.
Leot’s pose for the photo is also no coincidence; gripping his scalp in a fit of laughter may be a go-to pose for this sort of reveal, but given Leto and Ayer’s previous homage to Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons’ “The Killing Joke,” we’d say this recreation (of the true ‘birth’ of The Joker) is every bit the nod to one of the darkest, cruellest Joker tales ever told.
While Zack Snyder may be leaning heavily upon Frank Miller’s “The Dark Knight Returns” for Batman V Superman‘s new Dark Knight, it’s unclear if Ayer has similarly found a particular comic version of The Joker to act as his own muse. It’s easy to view “The Killing Joke,” “Death in the Family,” and some other particularly violent arcs as a single take on the villain, and there have been several rumors hinting that this Batman and Joker will have a far darker history than live-action films have usually tackled.
Beyond the visuals, this character concept is a good indication of just what style is pursuing for Suicide Squad. We have yet to see official looks at Will Smith’s Deadshot, Jai Courtney’s Boomerang, or Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn – the latter of which may presumably follow a similar visual style to her long-time paramour.
Now that we know just how determined and imposing Ben Affleck’s Batman will be, the pressure was on to come up with a take on his single greatest villain that would actually stand a chance against him. Now that we’ve seen just how insane Leto’s Joker may be (and with some muscle to back up the madness), it’s clear he’s got what it takes to test Batman’s patience. And judging by his metal teeth, we’d say he’s found Batman’s limits already.
Naturally, this design won’t be for everyone – particularly those who prefer - prefer – the more comedic, clean-cut version portrayed by Jack Nicholson in Batman (1989). But just as that version was a call back to the vintage version first played by Cesar Romero on the Adam West TV series, it seems Ayer is looking to adapt the more cruel, brutal, and truly psychopathic version of far more adult versions.
The message first sent loud and clear by Warner Bros. tapping David Ayer – the director of End of Watch, Street Kings, and Sabotage – should no longer surprise anyone. Suicide Squad‘s top priority looks to be establishing a set of villains that actually could exist in the darker corners of our world – albeit with their signature personalities re-imagined. The results will prove divisive – but who wants more of the same?
What do you think of this take on the Joker? Is it more than you had hoped for, a version sure to be memorable, or too much of a departure for your tastes? Could your opinion change if Leto’s Joker is, say, downright hilarious?

hopefully they wont kill him off either in this or in the solo Batman film(since its being rumored that Affleck will appear as Bruce Wayne in a after credits scene for the SS movie)
It's very doubtful that WB would make the mistake again. At some point there will probably be a Legion Of Doom Vs Justice League film. They may wan't to use him in there.
violent, chaotic, and unpredictable
people just like to say something will fail, so if it does, they can come back and say "i told you so".
I can't find the damn look. But this is definitely Jim Lee inspired. I can't even remember the damn run. But it was a Grant Morrion, Jim Lee team up where it was Batman and Young Dick Grayson as Robin. They painted a room yellow and was drinking lemonade to face down Green Lantern.
And dick did a knife hand strike to GL's throat and almost killed him.
find that. i want to read it.
All-Star Batman & Robin
Yeah that's hipster punk rock joker.
Therrre we go. That's the 1. He kind of portrayed Joker as semi-normal but creepy. Tattooed. Hair slick.
Good job finding. I couldn't remember the All Star part for nothin.
