The Dark Knight Fake Revealed
Posted by: MichaelThe very cool Joker Dark Knight poster on our site was proven to be a very well made fan poster quite some time ago as was noted on our site. However two different readers have written in with great detail really exposing how the fantastic fake was made. Michael writes in to tell us:
The image you have posted for The Dark Knight Joker image/poster is not affiliated with the movie. It is a fan's very-well executed and successful doctored mock poster they themselves created. The image of the man is Conrad Veidt from the 1928 film "The Man who Laughs." His character in this movie was the major inspiration for The Joker later on, but since you have this image/poster ALL over your website thought you should know that it is not genuine. Thanks.
On top of that another reader wrote in with a copy of the original poster so you can see the comparison side by side. Although we all know its just a fan poster its now really clear how it was made. Compare the two posters below. Thanks to DM who sent in the poster for comparison! Even though we all know its a fake Batman poster I think we can all agree it was very creatively done! Kudos to DM and Michael for writing in.
