Sorry Mouth, but the Joker had a defined origin story - Detective Comics #168 "The Man Behind the Red Hood" (February 1951). this was considered canon for many years, until comics started to suck. he dove into the vat of chemicals, disfiguring himself and went mental upon seeing what happened to him.
Nolan isn't even close to the roots of the character.
Well I'm seeing this tonight so I'll be posting my thoughts. I'm attempting the best I can to strip my misgivings away and watch it with an open mind. I expect a mediocre movie. I pray that it doesn't end up being worse than that, and I hope it will at least be "pretty good." We shall see.
