Batman’s rogues gallery: a group as human and grounded as Batman himself, with most having no super powers. Their shared humanity emphasizes how they serve as dark mirrors to Bruce, while providing challenges to Batman on a tactical and psychological level rather than just big loud fight scenes.

Scott Snyder, who probably loved the Titan Joker boss fight in Arkham Asylum: okay but what if instead of being grounded and human, they were actually huge scary body-horror monsters? Wouldn’t that be fucked-up and cool?

small concept doodle for doctor death… hes still Batman's first enemy ever in my au, but I like to think he actually does die when fighting Batman, more of his own fault with recklessness, but Batman never really forgot it and it forced him to be SO much more careful because he never shook that off.

Anyway I like to think he does end up coming back, I always imagine a plot where someone decides to revive a SHIT ton of gothams villains, and this fella is the first one since bruce is FUCKED UP when fighitng him

Another great example of Bruce character consistency from Day 1 is his reaction to getting shot at point blank range, which is to: apply a band-aid, make a dramatic phone call from a phone booth, realize he probably needs more medical attention than a bandaid, and then flirtatiously telling his doctor “I do funny things sometimes” when asked how he managed to shoot himself in the shoulder.

#bruce wayne #dr. death #karl hellfern #any dr. death stans on tumblr dot com??#i used to follow a batman blog by that name but i think they deleted #which is too bad because they were how i found the schumacher batman movie novelizations #anyway i love this sequence because i think it's supposed to be a joke???#like bruce says 'this'll keep until i get to a phone booth'#implying that when he gets to a phone booth he'll be calling for medical aid #but instead he calls a newspaper to get them to print a dramatic challenge to his first supervillain #and then leaves the phone booth and goes 'ow damn that's right. i got shot in the shoulder'#idk i can't always tell because the standards of the medium were obviously quite different back then #but there's a lot of moments in early batman comics that feel very purposely wryly funny

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES: Strange or Death?

We're all familiar with the dear old doctor, Hugo Strange, he's been through the rumour mill more than most and with good reason- Alon Aboutboul cast as "mad scientist"...

Jump back a month or so- Gary Oldman tells us one of the villains is an "old, old" foe of the Batman. While this could be Strange, it could also point to the lesser known Dr Karl Hellfern, A.K.A, Dr Death.

In his first appearance in Detective Comics #29, Doctor Death develops a lethal chemical agent from pollen extract and enacts a plan to use the poison to extort money from wealthy Gotham City citizens. He is assisted by a large East Indian manservant, Jabah-

Or Bane?

-In an attempt to evade capture by Batman, Doctor Death ignites chemicals in his laboratory, presumably killing Jabah and himself in the resulting explosion. Doctor Death next appears the following month in Detective Comics #30. With a new accomplice, a Cossack named Mikhail, Doctor Death is this time successful in claiming a victim in his extortion scheme, but discovers that the poisoned man lost his fortune in the Depression. Batman intervenes in the plot and upon apprehending the doctor, discovers that Doctor Death's face is horribly disfigured from the lab explosion, resulting in a brown, skeletal appearance.

A new realm of possibilities opens... Which will it be? (if either)
