With action figures of Heath Ledger's Joker flying off retail shelves and winding up on eBay, all things Batman are incredibly hot at the moment. Why not add some fuel to the fire by creating a rather impressive 1/4th scale bust of the Joker? Hot Toys has done just that and the result is rather impressive, sporting some killer detail.

The Dark Knight to Remain Unchanged

Since Heath Ledger's death of an accidental overdose in January, critics and fans have speculated that the studio and filmmakers might alter the film or change marketing strategies from focusing on Ledger's role as the infamous Joker. Despite his tragic death, marketing has gone on as originally planned and the Joker will be portrayed as intended.

"I think he'd be very pleased to see we're just moving ahead as is," Nolan said. "If you try to honor somebody, you honor them by respecting their work and putting it out there for as many people to see. He was immensely proud of the work he did on the film. I feel a great burden to present that in an undistorted form."

Priming for The Dark Knight

If you're anything like me, you can't wait for The Dark Knight to hit theaters this summer. Starring the late Heath Ledger as the Joker, the sequel to 2005's Batman Begins will retell Batman's first encounter with his most recognized villain, as well as one of his most tragic. Like its predecessor, The Dark Knight will likely draw much of its material from Batman's comic roots while putting a slight twist on the canon. Batman Begins relied heavily on characters and situations created by Frank Miller in the classic Batman: Year One, which was written in 1987 as a more modern take on the Bat's comic origins - just like Begins reboots the film version of the Caped Crusader by tossing Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher's movies out the window. So if you want to get a head start on The Dark Knight and get some hints as to where the story may be heading, it would make sense to scour Batman's print history where the film's writers likely got their material. But where to start?
