It is comprised of graphic tees, shorts, and shirts for the warmer seasons ahead. Some of the spotlighted items include three [collaborative tees](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ovo-x-marvel) that are adorned with visuals from Christopher Nolan's [Dark Knight trilogy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solander-batman). Each shirt is made to honor Joker played by Heath Ledger with designs that are inspired by his iconic visuals, including the 'Why So Serious' movie poster. Notably, the back of the tops are decorated with more art including a version of the Joker surrounded by daggers, a bat silhouette with 'HAHA" letters along with the phrase "ANARCHY BEGINS," and his face with a bat-shaped emblem.
