Where there is a film, there is shed loads of merchandise. This is certainly true of the The Dark Knight and of course Heath Ledger's performance.

Yep, [Warner Bros](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-ghost-chilli-chicken-wings) and [DC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/batman-x-blvck-collection) didn't hold back on the [Heath Ledger merchandising](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/i-can-fix-him) which is a tad odd considering his death. Here are my top 10 Joker and Heath Ledger t-shirts.

Personally I think only a goth, emo or student could pull these off, but if I HAD to wear one, it would be the white faced image of Heath Ledger. It is a bit scary, but if I had to wear it, then at least I would not have to look at it.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
