| Twisted Teal | #008080 | Optional cooler alternative | |
| Chaos Black | #000000 | Outline or background |
Keep purple and green in the lead
Start with a broad purple shape and a smaller green detail: a jacket with green lapels in an illustration, or a purple poster with green lettering. Giving the two colors different areas makes the design easier to read.
Mattel’s licensed Suicide Squad Joker figure describes green hair and a purple suit.
Red needs less space
A red smile or small mark can be enough.
Magenta and teal are alternatives
They do not need to appear together, or at all:
- Magenta can replace some purple for a brighter graphic.
- Teal can replace the neon green for a quieter variation.
Leave room for the face
DC’s character profile describes chalk-white skin and green hair. For an illustration, a pale face against darker clothing keeps those features separate. White #FFFFFF is a useful extra canvas color outside the six-swatch set.
On a poster or interface, test the actual text and background together. Vivid green and purple do not automatically make readable small text.
Choose a version before choosing the shades
A comic-inspired poster and a film-costume study have different needs. For a specific Joker appearance, use an image from that version as the visual reference; lighting and fabric can change the apparent color.
