‘Nosferatu’ Joker
The Joker is also called the Laughing Man in “Batman: Nosferatu,” a disturbing comic which draws obvious and deliberate inspiration from early German impressionist cinema, including movies such as “Nosferatu” (obviously) and “The Cabinet of Dr Caligari.” In the comic, the Laughing Man is a terrifying skeletal cyborg, making this a notable departure from the character’s standard form.
