I don't know why John would not allow this message through, so I'm
thinking Blogger is acting up. It won't accept posts at all from my

"You keep using a model cel image of Batman to illustrate your points;
an image meant to be the most clinical possible. From a show where
cartoony isn't necessarily suitable (tho if you look at the storyboards
for the show, or the comics based on it, there's a much more cartoony
sensibility; but in those cases the cartooniness doesn't undercut the
tone the show creates). On the other hand, you're using pencils of the
older examples, which give more of an impression of looseness than cels
or screenshots would.
The Joker has fairly organic features; see here for the storyboards and
the images in the cartoons (put the cursor over the images to see the
storyboard images):

Here's a shot with some more organic goings on, tho they are on the
surface:

Here's an image with a bit of imperfect perspective, relating back a bit
to your Milt Gross posts:
