A few days ago, Warner Bros. opened a site to promote their Batman Begins sequel The Dark Knight. The site I Believe in Harvey Dent consists soley of an election poster advertising Harvey Dent (played by Aaron Eckhart) for District Attorney.

Soon after, another site was discovered — I Believe in Harvey Dent Too — which appears to have been hacked by The Joker (Heath Ledger) which features a defaced “I Believe in Harvey Dent” poster.

Visitors to The Joker’s site who entered their email address received a link with X and Y coordinates emailed to them that once plugged in would reveal one pixel from an image underneath. The more users input the coordinates, the more pixals of the image beneath the campaign poster were uncovered.

The full image was finally revealed today to be Ledger in full Joker face makeup. See image here after the jump.

It was a fun little game to play, though I can’t say I’m all that thrilled with the final image. I don’t see anything amazing about it, and it’s done nothing to make me think that Ledger will look great in this role (nevermind, that I can’t see how good he’ll be acting the part). While nowadays, people tend to play down the first Tim Burton Batman, there’s no denying that at the time, audiences loved it. And when Jack Nicholson first appeared in full Joker makeup, everyone was awed.

Is anyone awed by Ledger’s Joker?
