Default "Character looks" thought

Now so far I love all the looks everyone has. Everyone looks really good and all, but a thought had just crossed my mind. We see Harley's new look and all and at first I thought, "Well we know what Joker looks like, but what about some of the other people?" and then it hit me. We actually haven't seen Joker and how he looks save for that teaser trailer, but guess what? Harley was wearing her nurse outfit in that trailer and the thugs running around the city looked identical to the thugs in the first game.

That means Joker's appearance could _vastly_ be different from the one we see in the teaser trailer and thus I'm counting Joker as "unknown" for now. Wonder what differences he may have. He could be wearing an entirely different (but still appropriately Joker themed) outfit and his physical appearance could be different as well. His eyes could be less dark in the finish product among other things. Just something that hit me.

Thoughts?

The tattoo of Joker looks just like his concept art. I think Joker will still have that black eye liner which is awesome. if you notice every one of the characters has a new look.

The teaser trailer seemed reuse the character models from the first game, probably due to lack of actual final character models. But Joker's face was remodeled a bit and I bet that is what his mug will look like in the final game. His outfit? Doubt it. His suit from the last game was destroyed, meaning that even if he dons a purple suit again it'll probably have a different look. I wouldn't be surprised if he had different duds.

Still, it's odd he had that many identical suits.

You got me there.

Still wouldn't be surprised if he was in a new one though.

I think for the purposes of keeping things fresh they'll at least update his outfit a bit. I also expect to see the same old Zsasz, but in typical clothing rather than his asylum outfit.

Who knows at this point what the joker might look like haha.
What if they have a version of joker with a purple Kevlar vest or have a smiley faced Brass knuckle.

Something joker-like (Ok i admit the purple Kevlar vest idea is tacky...) would be hidden switchblades here and there.

I dunno , I'm pretty dry on ideas when it comes to joker...

For Joker I'd love to see them tackle the old Marshall Rogers trenchcoat.

This had actually crossed my mind as well. I think he will look pretty identical since he was really the only thing updated in the teaser. However, I would not be surprised if we see some slight changes though. The game is still a year away and we could still end up seeing many minimal changes with alot of the character models.
One thing I still can't figure out is why Batman looks nothing like the art they keep releasing... Don;t get me wrong, I LOVED the design of Batman in the first game but it's always nice to have some changes in a sequel.
Actually one thing I noticed was if you look at his ears in the first scans from the game informer mag... In the one picture of him gliding, the ears are the only picture that look to match the art designs and wallpapers. Now I can't tell if it just the angle or what, but they look very different to me... Anyone else notice this?
