Jim Carey’s gloriously scenery-chewing star-gurn as The Riddler in the OTT Batman Forever really took the biscuit. Jim Carrey’s Riddler alongside Two-Face, played by Tommy Lee Jones. Rather than get bogged down in origin story, The Dark Knight’s Joker lets his costume tell the tale: the scars on his face, the chipped, ghoulish make-up, wild unkempt, greasy, green hair and slept-in purple suit was seriously impressive. The late Heath Ledger won a posthumous Oscar for giving us a grungier take on the Clown Prince Of Crime, and was inspired by British rockers like Sid Vicious and Pete Doherty to nail down his appearance.

Paired with an olive trench coat and Dick Tracy-style brown hat, he’s surely the snappiest-dressed moral-cleanser, with kick-ass abilities that mean you’d never make a ‘resting yeast face’ joke at him.

His taste in tailoring was certainly better than his poker face. Zack Snyder’s movie version of Alan Moore’s graphic novel gifted us Jackie Earle Haley’s Rorschach who covers his head with a flour bag, with a constantly shifting black-and-white pattern on it which connotes his changing emotions like cards in a Rorschach test (surely the kind of creative imagination that would help him win both The Great British Bake-Off and The Great British Sewing Bee).
