COMICS: Redesigned Joker For DC REBIRTH Looks An Awful Lot Like SUICIDE SQUAD's Jared Leto

Quite a few characters are being overhauled for DC's Rebirth event, and it appears as if The Joker will be among them as he's been given a new look sure to remind you of a certain tattooed someone.

Comic book artist Rafael Albuquerque has taken to his Instagram account (via Comic Book Resources) to reveal his retailer exclusive variant cover for June's Batman #1, and it seems to have spoiled the new look The Joker will have following the events of Rebirth #1. While he may not have the tattoos or grill, the resemblance to Jared Leto's version of The Clown Prince of Crime is pretty clear to see here. 

That's evident from not only his dress sense, but the hair, make-up, and smaller grin (which no longer appears to be distorted in such an unrealistic fashion). Whether or not this is the character's new look moving forward remains to be seen for now, but what do you think if it is? As always, be sure to let us know your thoughts in the usual place and stay tuned to CBM for updates over the coming weeks.

Only thing I don't like about that design is the hair, everything else is absolutely on point.

As good as Rafael Albuquerque is, I'm more excited to see what the new Joker would look like when Greg Capullo gets his hands on him.

I don't like this...they made The Joker into a hipster.
