Suicide Squad Reviews: 10 Things We Learned About The Joker

10. He Doesn't Get An Origin

Despite the fact that all of the Suicide Squad get so much time in the opening sequences building their introductions, and also despite his immediately striking look (including the well-publicised quirks) the Joker gets no origin.

That is as it should be, given the Joker's mythology and how successfully mystery worked for Heath Ledger's iteration of the character. But it might strike some fans as slightly odd that he has so many tattoos - which were so consciously expressed as part of his "journey" that aren't explained. Still, it's not really his film, and an origin story would have had fans up in arms.
