This weekend at Comic-Con, a huge “Joker Army Recruitment” (aka scavenger hunt) was held in an effort to promote the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight. The hunt went down after there was a new website www.whysoserious.com telling people to meet in a particular spot to join the Joker army.

Fans showed up with faces painted to look like the joker, searching for clues on the street and phone numbers written in the sky making them enter a series of passwords into the website to unlock movie stills, The Joker’s laugh and finally a teaser trailer for the movie. For those that were not in attendance the good news it that there’s a wrap up that can be seen online.
