Batman (Christian Bale) The Dark Knight (2008)

In The Dark Knight, Bat-Bale redesigns the Batsuit to make it possible, in a franchise first, to be able to rotate his neck in a manner that turns Robocop green with envy.
Lighter, more manoeuverable, and the only compromise is that now Bats is more prone to close-range knife attack – which he proves by going and getting stabbed.

The Joker (Heath Ledger) The Dark Knight (2008)

With an ambiguous origin leaving us none the wiser about the enigmatic madman, we only know one thing for sure: he’s got a wicked tailor.
Fantastic custom-made threads, including a particularly trendy waistcoat, his colour co-ordination leaves most other rogues in the dust - and makes Bats’ basic black suit look very boring.
