You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. — Harvey Dent

I'm finishing my Dark Knight trilogy of illustrations with this one.

We all know the Joker stole the show on that movie, but, to be honest, The Dark Knight plot moves around Harvey Dent's story arc. Christopher Nolan is a master storyteller by representing this character as a symbol of hope in Gotham City that went all the way down.

Both the character and the acting were a surprise by me, and though I went to see the movie with Heath Ledger's Joker in mind, it is now that I have seen the movie on DVD that Two Face's arc catches my eye.

So, I guess Nolan, as the Joker, had an ace in the hole: Harvey.

You can see the other two TDK illustrations here:



He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector... a Dark Knight. — Commisioner James Gordon

Hello! After finishing my 6 poster marathon about the Star Wars saga, I had no idea what movie should I illustrate now. Some people have told me that I must draw The Godfather, or Trainspotting, or some other great movies.

In the meantime, I've been sketching some ideas, but one of my favorite sketches was this Batman, based on the Christopher Nolan's movies. Some of the best superhero movies ever done, being The Dark Knight one of the best movies of all time.

I liked it so much that I decided to make it a poster to go along the one I did of the Joker. Both look great side by side!

I've already printed some posters and later I'll post some photographs of them, so you can see quality and color. They look great!

Some men just want to watch the world burn. — Alfred Pennyworth

Did you knew that the late Heath Ledger acted on The Dark Knight? Because honestly, I never saw him in the movie. As writer/director/fanboy Kevin Smith said, the actor completely disapeared behind the Joker character.

Every line of dialog, every gesture, everything from this character just left me breathless! Impressive!

And, although I considered not to include any comic-based film on my At the Movies series, I thought this one deserved a chance. So here's my latest artwork, based on one of the most cynical scenes of the Joker, applauding in jail at Gordon's promotion.

This is also a modest homage to one of Hollywood's finest actors in one of the most memorable performances of the decade.

In case you want a printed poster of this illustration, just let me know it and I'll even give you a desktop wallpaper for free!

In the meantime, make your comments and tell me your thoughts on this illustration.
