DC Comics tease... The Joker's Daughter?

DC have started a new feature on their blog called "What's new in the New 52?", the second edition went up today and they teased something rather interesting. The Joker's Daughter.

The only text DC posted reads, "Something evil lurks under Gotham City and it wears the Joker's face"

The original Joker's Daughter was Duela Dent, the daughter of Harvey Dent, A.K.A Two-Face. She, however, took on the name of the "Joker's Daughter". Her origin then got a bit more confusing, she was then the Daughter of the Earth-3 version of the Joker, the Jester, a hero on that world. She's worked with the Teen Titans a few times and was pretty much a good guy, I think.


So, what do you think of this? And what's the Joker going to do without his face? I mean it's pretty important...

I'm pretty sure this will  be in the main Batman book, by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo, who have pretty much taken  charge of Joker in New 52, and have done a lot to do with what the city's really like, including how it was built and what's underneath it.

Here's DC's article: http://www.dccomics.com/blog/2013/04/18/whats-new-in-the-new-52-%E2%80%93-jokers-daughter
