I love Leatherhead, I hope he's the one to show up. Maybe they could come up with some new characters too. Winters and the Generals were great additions and something I could actually see being in one of the previous iterations. I mean it just fit so well with the usual TMNT stuff. If Kevin Munroe can come up with more stuff like this, more power to him.
I really feel that Burton didn't understand the Joker. Otherwise he'd be some no name guy and he wouldn't have been a substitue for Joe Chill. Part of the beauty of the Joker is that he has no set origin story other than the vat of chemicals. Even the comics never gave him a true identity. Being homicidal is not just killing people en masse. That's not what Joker is about to me. It's that mix of the homicidal with the humor and the fact that he would sacrifice both to mess with Batman. And I just didn't get that impression at all from Nicholson's Joker. In fact there's only been two onscreen Jokers who've fit and that's Hamill's and Richardson's.
