Itâs a trap! This is no ordinary bat-signal call; rather a heinous trick by Raâs al Ghul and the League of Assassins to do in the Dark Knight once and for all! Can Batman survive and more importantly save his captive ward?!
---
This build actually as a somewhat long backstory to it. I thought of the main concept; that being a League of Assassins battle atop the GCPD; last year initially as a Brickworld build. (Some of you may remember that WIP build, which showed the larger scale I was going to use). That idea came and went; as did my iffy-ness about being able to attend Brickworld at all (I now do very much intend to go by the way, and I have my idea locked down too).
Anyways flash forward to today, where I snagged that awesome new TMNT Shredder lair set from Toys R Us. While I donât know anything about TMNT, I love the look of that set and especially the darker redesign of Shredder and I just had to build something for him. So I dug up this concept, and started building. However as I came closer to completion, I decided Iâd rather just go with the League of Assassins rather than a crossover build of Batman vs. Shredder (Which if your interested, it basically would have been the exact same build anyways, just with Shredder!). You may also notice my use of Foot Soldiers for League ninjas on account of my lack of enough actual ninja masksâdespite that setback I did also find a great use for Shredderâs parts when Iâm not using the character. Iâm also interested to see what people think of my rather artsy window designsâI do think its a bit jarring at first glance, but the more you look at it, the more it looks right.
Blah, blah, blah. Enjoy the build and that unnecessary description.
Thought it was time for me to make some more figs.
From L to R:
Zemo: I decided to try him again since my last one wasnât great. Idk if I should have still used the collar piece here.
Bucky Barnes: Gave him a casual look since I already did his main look. I remembered that I prefer this head for him.
John Walker: I donât use the spider man parts again cause they just didnât work well.
Sam Wilson: Like Bucky I made him in his casual outfit.
Lemar Hoskins: Really wish I had a swat vest that wasnât GCPD.
I am working on the Building instructions of my last MOCs and am trying to make It more professionnal for a project with @elevenbricks11 (Stay tuned for that! đ). I change my software. I will use Stud.io so I try different things as the Render FUNCTION!

Due to copy paste being a bitch , this issue isn't bold or underlined .
'-' Alfred
"-" Bruce
-------
'Master Bruce .'
Alfred places his hand on my left shoulder .
"What is it Alfred ?"
I turn around letting his hand slip back to his side .
'There has been a murder .
Precisely two murders. It's Scarecrow ,sir.'
I sigh.
"Is the bat suit ready ?"
He nods his head in disapproval.
I still haven't convinced him what I'm doing is the right thing to do.
'Yes but ... are you sure you wish to take on a criminal mastermind like "The Crow" ,sir ? '
I laugh .
"All he is , is a cannibal , a monster , and most importantly a drug addict."
'Except this addict isn't a normal one .'
I don't have time for this .
"I've made my mind up Alfred , someone needs to put a stop to these criminals an.."
'But does it have to be you ,sir ?And look how that played out for the previous "hero" of this city. '
"Gordon made the mistake of digging too deep."
'And isn't that what you plan on doing ?'
Every second we spend arguing could be a second spent stopping the Scarecrow .
But sadly he does have a point.
If Gordon , this cities best detective and chief of the GCPD couldn't stop these monsters , then who am I to think I could pull it off ?
"Alfred ...is the suit ready or not ?"
'Yes master Bruce .But know this .Once you go on this path , there is no coming back '
"I'm aware of that .But I have to do this .Not for my parents , or avenging them , but rather for myself .I need peace Alfred .Sadly I can only find it in war ."
'A war you may loose .'
"Yes Alfred. I might win .I might loose . But at the end of the story , I will be able to say I tried . "
He opens his mouth as if he was about to say something , but then closes it .
He hands me Scarecrows police file and his presumed hideout .
'Before you leave sir .'
I look into his eyes .
I can see something in them .
Is it grief ?
Fear?
Or ...
Pain?
'You say you are doing this for yourself , yet still ...how true do you think that is ? Do you think they would have wanted you to go on this path ? To become an angel of "justice" ? Do not let the Wayne family line go to waste .If this is what you wish to do , then do it right .Make them proud .'
I sense a certain fury in his voice , but I say nothing .
I simply put my suit on and get inside the Batmobile.
As I start the engine I swear I could have heard a drop of water fall to the ground .
My brain tells me it indeed was a drop of water .
My heart tells me something else.

BTW , if you've missed the prologue , just go to my stream and you will find a photo of batman and Joker mirroring each other , that's the prologue .

Hope you guys like it
L-R
Jim Gordon
Old custom that I had lying around. Recently retraced the lines to make them more clean. For those who have followed me this is the same figure I used for my GCPD stories back in 2014
Nightwing
Again like Gordon, an old figure that I recently retraced to make it look better
Joker
Based of BTAS. this is an updated version of the one I posted back in June/May this year. I just re did the orange blazer to look neater.
Riddler
Again a old figure that I recently retraced. its a little based of BTAS but not that much.
Red Hood
the only recent figure. Gave him double molded legs and a knife. I later maybe want to switch out the face since the current decal looks a bit weird.
With trees uprooting as he neared them and boulders flying from his path, Batman begged Robin to "finish the job I couldn't do. I can't ever work with you again." Miraculously, Batman devised a solution and challenged the Zebra-Man, pulling towards him instead of away. The Zebra-Batman decked his opposite number, repelled the gang towards Robin and the GCPD, and put on the control belt himself, purging the energy from his body.
Date: November 16th, 1989
Time: 10:41 PM
Location: GCPD
Recommendations: Read Joker as Mark Hamill, Batman as Kevin Conroy, and Gordon as Gary Oldman.
*Batman brings in the Joker after stopping him from sabotaging rival gang shipments at the Gotham Train yard. The joker is searched, stripped down, put in a jumpsuit and placed in a small interrogation room. Batman and Commissioner Gordon observe from outside.*
Gordon: "What was he destroying?"
Batman: "He was trying to plant explosives onto a shipment addressed to Roman Sionis."
Gordon: "Black Mask? Why would he be sabotaging his shipments? I thought those two had an agreement to stay away from each other."
Batman: "I don't know just yet. After your men are done here, I am dropping Joker off at Arkham, and the I am heading back to the train yard to see what was in those crates that Joker wanted to destroy so bad. Then I'm going to find Sionis to see if he knows any reasons the Joker would be targeting him. What he tells me will decide if I bring him in or not.
Gordon:" Do you think Sionis is up to something?"
Batman: "I'll find out. If Joker is after his shipments, then it can't be good."
*Officers Frank Harper, Johnathan Keys, and Oliver Milton enter the room while Commissioner Gordon and Batman watch from the viewing area.*
Joker: Milton! Harper! How have you guys been?"
Harper: "Shut it Clown!"
Joker: "Oooo, snippy are we? Fine then, I guess I won't be friendly.........hey, kiddo, I don't recognize you. What's your name boy? How long have you been on the force?"
Keys: "It's Jonathan, and only about two we....
Harper: "Shut it Keys, don't tell him anything. We're asking the questions here clown, not you. Got it?"
Joker: Yes sir! Ooo boy, I like it when your pissed Harper. It's easier to manipulate you that way.
Harper: "Why you son of a bitch"
*Harper raises his fist and takes step forward*
Gordon over intercom: "That's enough Harper! Stand down and do your job."
Harper: *angrily* "Yes sir"
Joker: " Aww, did someone get in trouble? he he."
Harper: " *sigh* ....So Joker, what were you doing at the train yard?"
Joker: "Bite me! I have a lot of plans for tonight, and not enough time. I will never make my deadline if I am stuck here taking to you idiots."
Harper: "What plans"?
Joker: "My plans......plans that don't involve being in the damn GCPD, so if you don't mind, i'll be leaving now."
Harper and Milton: *laughing*
Harper: You got 5 pairs of eyes on you, one of them being The Batman, your handcuffed, and your locked in this room. Just how do you plan on getting out?"
Joker: "Not sure yet, give me 5 minutes."
Harper: "God, we don't have time for this shit. Gordon, he is not gonna talk. You know him. I have interrogated this piece of shit over 30 times while working here, and not once has he ever given me anything close to a lead on what he is doing. How is this time supposed to be any different? We are wasting our time.
Joker: "30 times eh? I'm flattered you kept track. It's a shame it will only be 30. You were starting to grow on me."
Harper: "What's that supposed to mean. Are you threatening me?"
Joker: "Oh I threaten a lot of people, you're no different from the others."
Harper: "Yea, well do these "others" have you locked in a room handcuffed stripped of your weapons?"
Joker: "No, they're dead. Um, excuse me, Johnathan was it? Yes, um could you spare the time?
Keys: "Uh, it's 11:07"
Joker: "Damn, off by 2 minutes. Well, I'd hate to be a burden gentleman, but I best be heading out."
Harper: "He he he, you ain't going nowhere."
Joker: He he ha he...am I now?
*The lights go out in the entire building. Batman is heading for the door as soon as they do. There is the sound of a chair hitting the ground, breaking glass, screams, a gunshot, shuffling, more screams, kicking, and then silence. Gordon tries to see what is happening inside the room, but it's to dark. The lights come back on. The room is in despair. All three officers are dead. Blood is everywhere. the door is wide open. Batman rushes in, see that the Joker is gone, and rushes back out.*
Batman: Oracle, The Joker is free. He couldn't have gone far! He has to still be in the building. I need you to scan the entire facility. Find him!
Oracle over headset: "Jesus Christ he's free? How? Is Dad okay?"
Batman: he's fine, and I don't know. I need you to scan now Oracle!"
Oracle over headset: "Alright Bruce, running the scan now. Keep my Dad safe Bruce."
Batman: "I will."
*Commissioner Gordon stands in shock. He pears into the decimated room and at the dead officers. Blood is everywhere, and smeared quickly onto the window in blood is the single phrase *HA*"
Gordon to himself: "How did he do it? He killed all 3 men, un-cuffed himself, and wrote on the window in less than 30 seconds. How?....just how?"
*Gordon comes to his senses and reaches for his radio.*
Gordon: "We have a 10-98, I repeat, a 10-98! The Joker is loose in the GCPD and he is armed! All units report! I repeat, 10-98! The son of a bitch is loose!"
So, what do you think? I don't do thing like this often, so please give me your opinion. I know it's long, but please read it. Also, thanks to Adam for editing the picture for me :)
Besides the story, I actually really love this build I made for this.
This is my representation of an armored truck for My Arkham Asylum project!
The interior is fully detailed and my stretcher can fit inside

So, as you all may know, I've been working on a full-blown reboot of my DC ZealotVerse, which'll just be titled Justice League from now on. Here's what I have so far. I'll put in a synopsis and a quote.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Justice League Vol. 1 - Origins:
The metahumans of planet Earth unite to stop a worldwide invasion from a mysterious alien race.
"My name is Tyrell, conqueror of worlds. I have come for an outsider who poses as your race - Kal-El."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Justice League Vol. 2 - The Batman:
Batman, Bluebird, and the GCPD race against time to save Gotham City from the Riddler.
"I get that you just died and came back, but no way am I carrying you back to the cave."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Justice League Vol. 3 - Superman:
Superman discovers an ancient Kryptonian ship on Earth, and discovers a threat from his own race.
"My name is General Ul, and we come in peace."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Justice League Vol. 4 - Extinction:
???
"My name is Barry Allen, and we are all that's left."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't want to give away Vol. 4's synopsis just yet, but hopefully some of you could guess in the comments!
So I tried my best to recreate the GCPD Mecha Batsuit from the comics, and I have to say I'm very pleased with the outcome.

GCPD:
GCPD is not dead, I'm am currently writing the next chapter, It's going to be a very long chapter by the looks of it. So yeah, next chapter will hopefullu be up by saturday.
Other stuff:

"Breaking News with GCN Live!"
"Good afternoon, Gotham! I'm Vicki Vale with Breaking stories as they come! And just reported; attack on Avion Tower! The terrorist militia group responsible for the deadly attacks on the Dave Mckeen Art Auction and Diamond Shopping mall have moved up to bigger targets, specifically the still- under construction Avion Tower! The terrorist group, named "Company B" according to investigative reports, stormed the tower roughly 2 hours ago. Construction workers were on hand working on the tower at the time, and their status currently remains unknown as police are unable to get close in fear of retaliation, as Company B has proven to be more than a match for GCPD's SWAT. The pattern to the attacks of Company B has baffled investigators, as there was nothing to gain from the locations outside of body count, not to mention the organization's motives are still unknown at the time. More as it happens!"
EV: "Oh mon deiu....savages....."
LT: "Company B?...oh shit..."
EV: "What is it, ChĂŠrie?"
LT: "Company B was the name of J's squad when he was in the army..."
EV: "Cousin was a soldier? Hmph, more he hides...."
LT: "He was only there, shortly. After his squad went Vietnam on a village of citizens--"
EV: "Cousin did WHAT?!"
LT: "He didn't do anything. In fact, after his squad flattened that village and the people in it, he killed every man responsible then went dark."
EV: "And yet these monsters are named after the group he was assigned to--"
LT: "Because the squad leader is....was alive, leading that militia. It's him they're after."
EV: "B-but....cousin doesn't leave much of his victims together. How is the leader even in one piece?"
LT: "He's not in one piece anymore, and even then when we met him a couple nights ago, an arm, eye and everything below the waist was all robotic. He's a cyborg."
EV: "None of this makes sense, Cherie..."
LT: "Doesn't matter anymore, scumbag's dead. I made sure of it. But his army's still going..."
EV: "What are you going to do?...."
LT: "Since J's still down....guess it's all me."
EV: "You fighting that army of monsters alone!? Ce que la folie, Cherie! You shouldn't!"
LT: "Doctor, I took on a giant nazi robot dog on the moon all by myself. I can handle morons in body armor. Besides, no-one else can take care of this......"
I built this Gotham Police Department for Blocks Magazine to showcase these custom minifigs from United Bricks. While as usual I wanted to build something much smaller, the scope of the building I was trying to capture necessitated a much bigger build. This is the largest interior space I've built, half again as big as my steampunk laboratory. This one also required some specific details, like the Selectric typewriters.

Real Name: Edward Nashton
Current Alias: The Riddler
First Appearance: Detective comics #140
Abilities: He is extremely intelligent and is very cunning. He is not well versed in hand to hand combat, but he uses gimmick weapons and is an expert in engineering and technology. His deductive abilityâs are rapid and are now used for his current occupation as a private detective, even known to collaborate with The Batman and other investigative crime fighters.
Attire: He wears a black Hat and vest, with a green suit and pants, along with a purple tie and gloves.
Arkham File: Patient Edward Nashton Aka The Riddler, was a college graduate, Who landed at the GCPD Crime division. He gained information about the GCPDâs corrupt doings overtime and started a campaign to attack the GCPD and blackmail them. The Batman got wind of this and pursued Nashton, but Nashton allowed Batman to temporarily stop him because of his interest in the masked vigilante. He later released the information regardless because, he no longer wanted to attacked the GCPD, but instead outsmart the Batman. He reappeared once more, but this time under his Riddler persona. He wanted to test Batman and set bombs all over Gotham in order to see if Batman intellect was on his level and wore a mask to see if Batman could deduce his true identity. Batman solves every puzzle, but also found hidden clues in each answer that lead him to an abandoned building near Dixon docks that he had been previously owned. Nashton tried to make his escape, but found that the building was surrounded by the GCPD. Nashton was arrested and was sent to Arkham Asylum. In sessions with Nashton we discovered that he stole for fun as a kid and loved to always be right by outsmarting people by cheating. This came with a price though, he was lonely throughout high school and college and was always mocked by his father, who saw him as a wimp. He eventually escaped during a riot and began a campaign to become the smartest and most powerful man in the underworld. He started this by humiliating and selling out Arthur Brown Aka Cluemaster, to make it known that there is only man who outsmarts Batman with clues left at the scene of the crime. He also killed Jessica Duchampâs Father which caused her to become the Puzzler. Some time after this, he started a crime war with the Joker over who Could kill Batman first. This caused a major spike in crime as all criminals started choosing sides and civilians got caught in the crossfire. Ironically Batman choose to work with the riddler and used Chuck Brown Aka Kite-man as a mole in Riddlers gang. The two stopped the war and all parties dispersed. After this Nashton also discovered one of the League of Assassins Lazarus Pits and started a campaign to outsmart The Batman, even claiming that he knew Batmanâs identity at one point. He was later beaten and humiliated by many criminals and eventually started kidnapping Professors and extremely smart individuals to try and beat them at puzzles. He usually failed, but he would still kill them or their family members. He finally tried to outsmart Batman by luring commissioner James Gordon into a virtual reality simulator connected to the brain. Batman went in and rescued the commissioner, and pulled the plug on the machine. They traced the source to Riddler where he was found in a comatose state for not disconnecting his brain before the program was shutdown. Nashton was in a coma for six months, until recently when he awoke with his insanity and obsession of Batman gone. His intellect was still in tact and he became a private investigator. He has been criticized and attacked by his victims and other angry individuals because of his previous crimes when he was insane. A prime example was a case in which a multitude of people who were wronged by Nashton Like Arthur Brown and Jessica Duchamp wanted to ruin his newly built life. They framed him for murder and tried to kill him, but The Batman had been watching Nashton and new of his innocence. The GCPD and Batman saved Nashton before he was killed and was cleared of all charges. Nashton still works as a private investigator to this day and is now legally sane.

"We fall so that we can learn to pick ourselves up."
At least that's what my dad told me. My dad. God I miss him. He may not have been the best but he taught me everything that I know.
My eyes burned. I tried to hold in the tears but I couldn't. Tears streamed down my cheeks. I wiped them away. I promised my dad that I would be strong.
Everything that I have loved is gone. My mom was lost to drugs, my dad to crime. Then the one person who I loved more than both my mother and father, went missing. Dick Grayson. The tears returned. What happens if you fall to many times? What happens if you aren't strong enough to pick yourself up again?
I heard the click of a door.
Steph?
I wiped my tears again. I didn't want Kara to see me like this.
Yeah?
It took all of my might not to stutter.
I've got something to show you.
One second.
I hopped onto my motorcycle and took off with Kara riding behind me. She told me the directions. I sped down the streets making sharp turns, weaving in and out of passing cars. When we reached the GCPD I saw a figure clad in green and black.
Who are you!
The figure didn't reply.
I am gonna ask nicely one more time before this gets violent, who are you?
Still no reply. The figure reached behind its back and pulled out two katanas and ran towards me.
Kara look out!
I pushed Kara out of the way and we both just barely dodged the attack.
I saw that Kara was holding her arm, she was in pain. I looked closer, she was bleeding. This bitch cut Kara. I didn't think it was possible! Now I was more determined to beat the living crap out of this guy.
You want a fight? Come get one!
Kara unleashed a barrage of searing hot beams from her eyes. The figure barely dodged them. He threw some shurikens at me. I deflected most of them with my escrimas but two of them hit my shoulder. They penetrated my suit. Kara clutched her arm even harder. I felt a small explosion in my right shoulder. Once the smoke cleared the figure was gone. I pulled what was left of the shurikens out of my arm and slowly walked towards Kara.
It's okay champ, I'll get ya back home.
I pulled her body onto my motorcycle and rode home.
We fall so that we can learn to pick ourselves up,that is why I do what I do. That is why every night i wear this suit. That is why I'm Nightwing.

Special thanks to DuckBricks for letting me use Nightwing and Dick Grayson. I made the story a little bit longer than it was. I deleted the older one. hope you enjoyed!

When a beast like Man-Bat is terrorizing the sky's of Gotham, it's up to Batman and the GCPD--with their trusty Blimp--to take him down.

Title: Mayor of Gotham
Name: Jack Napier
Gender: Male
Backstory: Jack was a highly intelligent young man that grew up on the outskirts of Gotham City in his parent's home. Unfortunately, they were never around much, which lead to him feeling lonely at times. During this time, he'd perform various comedic skits to keep himself entertained. Upon his parents wanting to move away, he decided to stay in Gotham, starting a career as a stand-up comedian. Due to having a poor sense of humor and/or Gotham not being very accepting of his form of comedy due to being a cesspool for crime, he would have to abandon all hopes of making it as a stand-up comedian. He would pick up odd jobs here and there, one of which was being a clown for a kids birthday party. He knew that while Batman was taking criminals off the streets, he was also creating new ones. Jack decided to help Gotham in a way that Batman never could, by becoming a politician. With the recent death of Mayor Grange, there was a vacancy in the mayors office. Using his wits, he would rise up through the ranks, amassing a big following of supporters. Taking the opportunity, he would run for mayor, and win, as no one wanted to be mayor of Gotham. Especially when the last mayor was killed in his own office. Jack wasn't afraid, and went about cleaning up the streets of Gotham, as best as he could. The first thing he would do in office was to open up a library in the low-income neighbourhood of Backport. One of his biggest supporters, is Doctor Harleen Quinzel, a psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum, which led to a relationship forming between the two of them. Harleen would later become a criminal profiler, working with the GCPD. It's only a matter of time, before he comes face to face with the Dark Knight for the first time.
Riddle us this: what cerebral criminal with an affinity for purple and green loves challenging the Dark Knight with cleverly calculated crimes and puzzling plots?
One of the Dark Knight's most infamous villains, Edward Nygma enjoys flaunting his intellectual superiority by conducting crimes and leaving clues for Batman to piece together. While this habit constantly leads to the aptly named Riddler failing in his criminal endeavors, his puzzle-problem actually stems not only from his own narcissism and ego, but also from a deep-seeded psychological compulsion. Because of this, the Riddler often finds himself a resident of Arkham Asylum following his inevitable capture.
Possessing a genius-level intellect, the Riddler creates elaborate, sometimes Rube Goldberg-esque traps, and is even willing to use innocent civilians as bait. Although not physically imposing, the Riddler's brilliance, neurosis and lack of empathy make him an incredibly dangerous foe. He cares very littleâif at allâabout the lives of those he uses in his plots and instead only sees them as disposable pawns in his continuing intellectual battle against Batman.
Edward Nygma is the Riddler, a master strategist who incorporates riddles into his crimes in Gotham City, making him an enemy of its protector Batman.

The origin story recounts Edward Nigma's fascination with puzzles from a young age. After a teacher announces that a contest will be held over who can solve a puzzle the fastest, Nigma sets his sights on winning this, craving the glory and satisfaction that will come with the victory. He breaks into the school at night to practice the puzzle until he is able to solve it in under a minute. Due to this he wins the contest and is given a book of riddles as a prize. His cheating rewarded, Edward embraced the mastery of puzzles of all kinds, eventually becoming a carnival employee who excelled at cheating his customers out of their money with his bizarre puzzles and mind games. He soon finds himself longing for greater challenges and thrills and dons the disguise of the "Riddler" to challenge Batman, believing him to be a worthy adversary. In his first encounter with the Dynamic Duo, Riddler first tried to confound the crime-fighters with his infamous double-entry Riddle Clues and then tried to kill them both in a booby-trapped glass maze on a pier, sealing the door so they couldn't leave the structure before it exploded, only for Batman and Robin to escape and the Riddler "vanishing" after getting knocked into the sea by the explosion, leaving only his trademark "?" floating in the water.
Post Crisis on Infinite Earths
Origin
Before the Mask
Ed Nygma, Wayne Enterprises employee
Before the first appearance "the Batman", Edward Nygma was the trusted strategist of Philip Kane, Bruce Wayne's uncle and the CEO of Wayne Enterprises during Wayne's absence, despite Nygma having what was described as a "questionable past".
When Bruce Wayne returned to Gotham and threatened to uproot all the shady plans Nygma had for Wayne Enterprises, Nygma sent the Red Hood Gang after the prodigal son, only for the assassination attempt to fail. His position at Wayne Enterprises now compromised, Nygma departed to begin his endgame for Gotham, giving his boss Philip Kane his resignation in the form of trapping him in his office with a magnet.
"Zero Year"
Having strategically calculated his plans for Gotham, Nygma, donning the alias "the Riddler", cut the power throughout the entire city, telling the people that they would need to get smart or die. As the lights darkened in Gotham, Riddler kicked off what would later be called "Zero Year". Working with a vengeful scientist named Karl Helfern, Riddler sat back as Helfern collected all the materials needed to bring the city to its knees. While Helfern's motives were to hurt Wayne Enterprises, Riddler's motives were to make the city of Gotham smarter - to eradicate those that dumbed down the human race.
Riddler's beginning
As Batman was distracted with Dr. Helfern, Riddler used the time to further the survival challenge he initiated in Gotham by blowing up the retaining walls around Gotham. The approaching hurricane that the city had been preparing for was now unchallenged, and the streets immediately flooded with several feet of water. Using a special chemical developed by Dr. Pamela Isley, Riddler hastened the growth of plants throughout the city - now a dark, savage jungle under Riddler's thumb.
Working with Lieutenant Gordon and Lucius Fox, Batman discovered the Riddler's location after multiple difficult tasks to find his broadcasting spot, tracking him to the Gotham Museum. Finally coming face-to-face, Riddler challenged Batman one last time by demanding he answer twelve riddles. Batman went along with it for a bit, afraid that the villain would detonate weather balloons throughout the city if he did not play along, but ultimately punched Riddler in the face before the mastermind had a chance to ask all his questions. Turning the power back on, Riddler's reign was ended. Nygma, deemed too dangerous for the usual Blackgate Penitentiary, was put in a straight jacket and detained at Arkham Asylum.
The War of Jokes and Riddles
Riddler vs. Joker
After having been imprisoned for about a year following the Zero Year, the Riddler had become a tool for the GCPD whenever they found themselves stumped during an investigation until the day he finally escaped, threatening every guard on his way out of his cell by simply reciting the names of all of their loved ones. Hearing about a seemingly inconsistent string of murders committed by the Joker, the Riddler visited the clown, telling him he deduced that the Joker had lost his ability to laugh and suggested teaming up to take down Batman would be just what he needed. However, the Joker didn't find this offer funny and shot Nygma in the stomach, beginning the event that would later be called, "the War of Jokes and Riddles".
Recruiting every supervillain in Gotham they could, Joker and Riddler both amassed small armies to fight one another, leaving Batman and the rest of the city caught in the middle. For weeks the two sides fought, with Batman unable to contain the casualties caused by both armies; the Bat was forced to ally himself with one side in order to first defeat the other. Batman chose to work with the Riddler, despite Nygma having murdered Kite-Man's young son in a power play, in order to track down the Joker and finally end the war.
In the final confrontation with the clown, after Batman had inevitably betrayed him, Riddler surrendered and revealed that every move of the war - even Kite-Man's involvement - was orchestrated by him as a means to solve the ultimate riddle - how to make the Joker laugh again. Batman, furious over all the civilian casualties, attempted to stab the Riddler with a kitchen knife, only for Nygma to be saved by the Joker himself, an act that was so surprising that Joker regained his ability to laugh. The two criminals were both arrested and taken to Arkham Asylum.
Other Early Crimes
Sometime not long after the War, Joker and Riddler returned to the streets and put their past transgressions behind them. They, along with the Penguin and Catwoman, were contacted by the Designer - a new criminal in Gotham who volunteered to make their wildest schemes a reality. The Riddler agreed to the deal and asked the Designer for unlimited access to deathtraps to use against the Gotham City police. However, the Joker caused the whole deal to fall apart and seemingly killed the Designer, and the villains burned down his base to leave no trace.
At some point, Edward fathered a daughter known as Enigma. Later, perceiving her as less intelligent than himself, he attempted to kill her, though he was unsuccessful.
Nygma would later be returned to Arkham.
New 52
Death of the Family
The Strategist
With the Joker's return to Gotham, sporting his own cut-off face as a mask after a yearlong absence, the clown prince took over Arkham and began to spruce it up in anticipation of Batman's arrival. Nygma, still in his cell, asked Joker to let him out using the keycard of a dead guard. Considering Riddler to be a useful ally, Joker decided to challenge the Riddler in order to make sure he was at the top of his game for when Batman arrived. Tossing a toxic gas capsule into his cell, Joker told Riddler that, in order to survive, the mastermind had to figure out a way to get himself out of the cell. Without a problem, Riddler succeeded in his escape, using only one of the multiple ways he had thought of in advance, and joined Joker in his plan, being given the title of "strategist" in Joker's royal interpretation of Batman's rogues gallery.
After the Joker's defeat, Riddler was taken back to his cell in Arkham.
Forever Evil
When the Crime Syndicate arrived on Earth, the team of super-criminals liberated Riddler, as well as all the other villains around the country, after seemingly killing the Justice League. Nygma, taking advantage of his freedom, immediately invaded the Wayne Enterprises building in order to kill a security guard who had denied him a pack of cards five years ago. Alone in Wayne Tower, having defeated all the advanced security systems of the building, Riddler opened up a pack of cards and played solitaire, waiting for Batman to eventually return.
Endgame
During Joker's endgame, Riddler remained in his cell in Arkham Manor while the rest of the city was infected by Joker's mind control toxin.
When the city was saved and Batman was seemingly killed, the inmates were shipped off, and Wayne Manor was restored to Bruce Wayne, who was trying to restart his life after receiving amnesia during the Joker attack. However, Riddler, Clayface, and Mister Freeze secretly remained behind and ambushed Wayne as he attempted to move back in, hellbent on ruining his life the same way he ruined theirs by funding Batman. The villains were eventually foiled by the new Batman, and Riddler was brought back to the newly renovated Arkham Asylum.
Mockingbird
Using the alias Mockingbird, the Riddler gathered a group of six villains and trapped them aboard a sinking container.
Fighting the Flash
Another formidable opponent - the Flash
Sometime during his stay in Arkham Asylum, Nygma became interested in how to stop the Flash, considering him a new and formidable opponent. After a breakout, Nygma gained possession of the Flash villain Heat Wave after he had been left for dead in Gotham during the the Crime Syndicate's invasion. Next, the mastermind donated an army of "protection" drones to Central City through a collection of shell companies and waited until the police force fell right into his trap by activating them throughout the city. Finally, maneuvering public opinion against the Flash, Riddler secretly convinced the police force to allow the Rogues to arrest its city's hero, under the pretense that he was a threat.
When the Flash was finally captured, the Riddler revealed himself and took control of the drones that had been sent to patrol the city, threatening to use them to kill anybody if the Flash activated his powers. After the Flash was saved by Pied Piper from police custody, Nygma announced that, if the Flash did not reveal his secret identity to the world, he would destroy Central City by using Heat Wave, his hostage, as a human-nuke. Working together with the Rogues, who felt betrayed by the Riddler, the Flash defeated Nygma and the drones and handed him over to the Central City police to be taken back to Gotham.
Rebirth
I Am Bane
Riddler assisted Bane in unlocking a high tech door in Arkham, allowing him access to confront Batman.
Defiance, The Society
Riddler placed Deathstroke on trial for appearing to have reformed, and using Hector Hammond's abilities, he convinces the Secret Society of Super-Villains that Deathstroke is indeed evil by showcasing a simulation of the assassin killing them all right before Deathstroke himself is kidnapped.
Doomsday Clock
During the Doomsday Clock, the Riddler held an underground meeting with several supervillains to talk about the Superman Theory, but the meeting was crashed by the Comedian, who shoots Riddler in the leg.
Death Metal
After Batman accidentally unleashed an ancient evil from the Dark Multiverse, one of the cross-dimensional Dark Knights called the Batman Who Laughs came to Gotham and offered some of its villains metal Joker cards that could give them powers to bend reality. Riddler, serving time in Arkham Asylum, was personally handed a card by the Batman. Riddler used his new power to create a labyrinth around the city, acting as its first line of defense against heroes who wanted to reclaim it. His compulsion to tell riddles was again his downfall though when he was defeated by the newly formed Gotham Resistance.
Infinite Frontier
The Hill
A former mob hitman known as "Mr. Fun" went on a killing spree across The Hill, a lower-class neighbourhood in Gotham. The Riddler deduced the "Hill Ripper's" true identity, but rather than report it to the police he instead decided to plant riddles at the crime scene which would lead to an elaborate scavenger hunt ending at the killer's house. However, the GCPD could not solve the Riddles and, as they were no longer cooperating with Batman, the Dark Knight never found out about them. The Batgirls stumbled across his trail of clues, but rather than play his game they just trailed his henchman Killer Moth back to the Hill Ripper's hideout. He revealed the killer's true identity and escaped, but before he left he told Stephanie Brown that her father the Cluemaster was alive.
Skills and abilities
The Riddler is a criminal genius capable of extraordinary lateral thinking in decoding and formulating puzzles of all kinds. As a private detective during the time he was reformed, he demonstrated investigative skills that rival those of the Dark Knight. However, Batman's observations note that "[Nigma] exhibits personality disorders consistent with a fanatic narcissist, egocentrism, and megalomania crossed with severe obsessive compulsion".
Like most of Batman's enemies (and Batman himself), the Riddler has no superhuman abilities but is a highly cunning criminal strategist. He is not especially talented in fisticuffs (although his endurance has grown from having to engage in it over the years), but sometimes employs weaponry that exploits his gimmick, such as exploding jigsaw pieces, question-mark-shaped pistols, and his infamous question-mark staff, known to house a wide variety of technological devices and weapons. He is shown to be skilled with engineering and technology, having confronted Batman and Robin with unique and elaborate deathtraps. He is also well known for being Batman's most intelligent adversary, and with a flexible theme to his crimes compared to similar criminals: all the Riddler requires is to be able to describe his threatened crime with a riddle or puzzle. Riddler once tried to commit crimes without leaving any clues using self hypnosis; however, he learned too late that while he was asleep his unconscious mind left riddling clues, causing Batman and Robin to capture him. Riddler has a grudging respect for Batman in that he is the only adversary that has a intellectual genius equal to the Riddler; in the episode of Batman the animated series titled "What is Reality"? Riddler came close to defeating Batman once and for all; when Batman was forced to engage in a mind battle of the intellect versus the Riddler after Riddler "captured" Jim Gordon's mind in a virtual reality computer, Batman not only saved Gordon but also gave Riddler a riddle of his own: How could Riddler spread his consciousness 32 times more than Batman and still keep the mental concentration to keep his virtual ward "Riddlerville" together? The answer was that the Riddler couldn't keep his "Virtual World together" and instead suffered an emotional breakdown with his mind trapped in the virtual computer world until his next appearance.
However, the threat that Riddler actually poses is somewhat inconsistent across his various stories. His most formidable depictions emphasize his intelligence and cunning, portraying him as one of few rogues capable of seriously taxing Batman's mental prowess, while also willing to take the precaution of obtaining firearms to deal with the superhero. Some recent depictions, however, have placed a derogatory focus on his flamboyant gimmickry and relative lack of major victories (even despite this applying to most of Batman's enemies), portraying him as petty, overconfident, relatively harmless, and held in low esteem.
The latter approach has proved polarizing, with some fans finding it wasteful in light of the character's classic status and history of compelling stories, while others argue that most of his popularity has come from media other than his comic storylines and enjoy the notion of knowing that his "real" threat level is overrated. In recent years the Riddler has been consistently depicted as a serious threat, with notable successes.

Finally he struck a deal with Roman Sionis Aka Black Mask to do a favor for him in exchange for his services involving stock manipulation.

After finding out what the Red Hood Gangâs plan was, all I had to do was wait. I placed some machines in their frequently visited places, to try and find out what time the heist would be. Preparations were easy, and so I monitored them while relaxing the rest of the day, well as best as I could, with Dick around It was easy to lay around, since he kept pushing me to do so. In the mean time I checked up any leads on Dick, but still I found nothing, Deahstroke has been doing his best to hide him.
Back in the cave Iâm sitting around in my chair when Alfred comes over.
âBruce, Iâve been meaning to talk to you about somethingâ he says reassuringly, and I turn my chair to him, simple gestures like that, and making eye contact when someoneâs talking to you can help a lot, though I forgot to do that with Dick, every now and again.
âDonât think of Master Richard running away as a failure, this is justâŚsimply a lesson, for the futureâ I raise one eyebrow, this doesnât really seem like a lesson, one of the worst things I have ever seen was him being beaten by Two Face, I tried to make sure it never happened againâŚbut that didnât work.
âIâm sure weâll find Master Grayson again, and bring him back home, but when he does come back, donât act towards him like he was a failure, instead act like a parent, sure he did something he shouldnât have, but you had smashed his dreams by taking away the Robin name, and I think, he just needs a little comfortâ I put my hand on my forehead as I let it rest there for a moment, I know Alfredâs rightâŚbut it gets a little hard to admit stuff like that, I know I should have acted better to Dick, but I didnât and now all this crap has happened.
âIâll take that into considerationâ I stand up and walk over to my suit, the heist should be pretty soon, so now I need to get ready for it.
After I get suited up, I walk down to the trophies, each one is from a different accomplishment, one that I worked hard to get, then thereâs this oneâŚa failure, a life I couldnât save.
âWoah, come on man, Itâs a set up, they gave me a flashy costume, m-my wife, they threatened her, c-come on, come on Iâm not bad let me talk face to face with youâ he pulls off the red hood, but it gets stuck by his nose, he tugs, while trying to get away from me, I get closer, still keeping a menacing look, canât let my guard down, he could be lying to get pity out of me, after all, criminals are a cowardly and superstitious lot. Then suddenly, he hits the railing, and his feet begin to scramble.
âWoa, woah, help meeeeeeâŚ.â As a support railing breaks he falls in, I feel like life is going in slow motion for a minute, I reach my hand out to catch him. I grab his hand, but I feel his gloved hand slip away, and thereâs nothing I can do.
SLPASH
I look down into the acid, his body doesnât come up, but instead, the red dome helmet, and some playing cards, but the one that stood out, was a joker card.
âYouâre looking at that thing againâ Alfred says, which wakes me up from my trance like state.
âItâs such a bad memory, my second year as Batman, and that happened, itâs amazing how some things just never leave your mind, and his is no exception. It haunts my mind, knowing that a man that may have been innocent fell inâ As I remember the situation Iâm amazed that I was able to put the costume back together, I got the helmet from the acid, and the GCPD were able to recover the clothes, based off a residue left on the clothes from the chemicals, and I then was given them by Gordon, though I donât know what happened to that man, whatever happened to his body.
âYou know, AlfredâŚIf that man ever came backâŚgod I donât know how Iâd reactâ he looks concerned, he doesnât want me to have this on my mind, so he walks over, trying to reassure me.
âBruce, look at all the good youâve done, sure you may have messed up in some places, but for every good thing youâve done, there are a lot better thingsâ I look at him, heâs right, but I canât bring myself to say that.
âLike what?â
âFor Two Face, thereâs Harvey Dent, all the times you helped him out over the years, you two were best friends, for Richard running away, thereâs the time when you decide to look after him, because you know what itâs like, to see your family die before your eyes, and biggest of all, for that one man you couldnât save, thereâs the tons that you have in the past three yearsâ I smile, I guess I just needed a refresher, I look at the time and notice that itâs just about time to go.
I begin to head over to the Batmobile, as I put my helmet on.
âYou know, Alfred, I think I just needed a refresherâ I pick up my pace and hop in, I rev up the engines and zoom out of the cave, and onto the road, Iâm filled with determination, now itâs time to go hunting for the Red Hood Gang.
__________________________________________________
Well after a break, I'm finally back to writing Batman and Robin, and to get you guys hooked again I've added a bit of emotion to this issue, and a bit of backstory, anyways I hope you enjoyed it, and leave a comment if you did, thanks and have a good day.
I built this Gotham Police Department for Blocks Magazine to showcase these custom minifigs from United Bricks. While as usual I wanted to build something much smaller, the scope of the building I was trying to capture necessitated a much bigger build. This is the largest interior space I've built, half again as big as my steampunk laboratory. This one also required some specific details, like the Selectric typewriters.

2:00 pm
Black Mask presses the up button on the elevator and tries to find the number of his office
Black Mask: âGod dammit, how many floors are there in this place.â
He presses 54 on the elevator keypad and the door closes. He hums the entertainer for a couple minutes when the elevator door opens, revealing his office. Wood flooring with white walls, and a black ceiling including a bar, multiple couches, a spot under the floor to store dead people, and a large desk with a massive window watching over Gotham city.
Black Mask: âI love this place.â
He jumps onto his chair and relaxes, undisturbed, peaceful. BEEP. His phone buzzed loudly startling him. He picks it up.
Black Mask: âWHAT DO YOU WANT JESSICA.â
Jessica was Black Maskâs secretary.
Jessica: âSir, some faceâs want to see you downstairs.â
Black Mask sighed, this was code for meeting with the False Facers.
Black Mask: âTell them to wait 2 hours, because IâM TRYING TO RELAX!â
Jessica: âItâs urgent.â
Black Mask: âIs it worth my time.â
Jessica: âSome GCPD news.â
Black Mask: âI'll be down in a second.â
Black Mask sighs and walked over to the wall, pressed a button. The door slid away revealing a secret elevator. He pressed the down button, and the door closed. The elevator came to a halt and the door opened, revealing a giant table with the False Facers around it.
Black Mask: âTake off those masks, this isnât a ****ng tribe is it now.â
The False Facers removed their masks and set them on the table.
Black Mask: â I heard something about the GCPD, spill.â
He jumps into his chair as one of the members stood up.
Facer 1: âWe overheard Gordon talking about breaking into here to steal our files.â
Black Mask: âThatâs it. I mean Gordon has been on our tails for years, this is nothing new.â
Facer 1: âHe said that someone left a footprint on your file in the GCPD evidence room.â
Black Mask: âWho was it?â
Facer 1: âFacer 9â
Black Mask: âWas it on purpose?â
Facer 1: âMost likely not, heâs been with us for a while.â
Black Mask: âIs he here?â
Facer 1: âHeâs where you would think he would be.â
Black Mask slouched more comfortably in his chair.
Black Mask: âExcellent, does he know about Gordon?â
Facer 1: âYes, Facer 246 reported it to him.â
Black Mask: âGood, and how is Facer 246 behaving?â
Facer 1: âVery respectful, he has reported everything without any hesitation, very loyal.â
Black Mask: âVery good, just make sure he keeps reporting because if the GCPD finds out, this whole mole operation would be crumbled.â
Facer 1 sat down in chair as Black Mask sat up.
Black Mask: âOk, anything else you guys want to tell me?â
The room was dead silent.
Black Mask: âWell thanks, I just wasted a solid 5 minutes coming down to get information that you guys couldâve sent me through a ****ING TEXT. THINK PEOPLE.
He got up and headed for the elevator door. It opened and he walked in, pressed the up button, and the doors closed.
Black Mask: âI swear to God the next time Iâm going to see Gordon, Iâm going to blow his brains out.â
Elevator stopped at his office, and Black Mask walked in and jumped in his chair and glazed outside his window. He sees the GCPD building all the way out there in the distance.
Black Mask: âWhich is going to be very soonâŚâ
He relaxes in his chair and sighs in relief, waiting for whatâs coming nextâŚ.
A shorter chapter I know, but definitely needed for the story. I'm leaving for my schools spring break band and choir trip tomorrow, so no anything for about 2 weeks, so yeah...

Batman and the GCPD were working with Nashton and they sent Brown and others back to BlackGate and Arkham Asylum.
(Some spoilers ahead)
I havenât seen people made any version of Watchmen characters from the TV show and decided Iâd give a shot at it because I havenât done figbarfs in quite a long while (though I havenât included everyone but I still have the main characters included). Definitely will recommend the show, Iâm giving it a 10/10, as a pseudo remix-sequel with weirdness, great performances, action sequences, cinematography and connections/lore to the original comic.
From L to R:
Chief Judd Crawford: Really simple Indy hat, a Lexcorp henchman head, a blue business suit. I lack police figs.
Looking Glass/Wade Tillman: Unkar Thug head reversed. It was hard to find a good head honestly, I could have used something transparent but I didnât enjoy the effect as much. Indy torso and black pants, pretty simple. Maybe some GCPD legs would have improved it better.
Angela Abar/Sister Night: Black hood, Storm face, Bruce Bannerâs Ragnarok torso. Biker legs and anti blast Kama. If I used the new version of the hoods, maybe I could give SN a black mask, but Iâm pleased with the results anyways.
Agent Laurie Blake/Comediene: Long orange hair, agent torso, black legs, gun. Simple.
Lord of a Manor/Ozymandias/Adrian Veidt; Dark yellow Bruce Wayne hair, some old guyâs head (forgot where was that from). The suit was hard for me to choose so I picked Tina Goldstein. Or perhaps coincidentally and geniously, heâs wearing that outfit while riding a horse. (Also, the locket with fig could be a pocket watch? Itâs good to imagine things.)
Well, maybe thatâs the first batch of the cast for now, I might keep on making more on the rest of I can find some parts.
Miranda- Am I following this right? Zodiac is Batman. Batman is Bruce Wayne. Batman just sucker punched Ratcatcher. Ratcatcher was trying to save us from Charaxes. Charaxes is Ted Carson. Ted Carson, who has died at least twice already.
Gar- You put it like that and it sounds dumb
Drury- Heâs Bruce Wayne? Youâre Bruce Wayne?
Charaxes- Yes. He is.
Drury- Well damn. This changes everything! Bats? Bruce? Iâm sorry that I tried to kidnap you. And Iâm sorry for actually kidnapping you. And Iâm sorry I then tried to kill you.
Batman- Quiet.
Charaxes- At last, someone who has got a brain.
Batman- Charaxes, perhaps we can come to an arrangement.
Charaxes- Hm, perhaps not that smart after all.
Batman- I know you think youâre invincible but youâre not. You can be beaten. You can destroyed
Gar- Maybe if you hadnât knocked out Ratcatcher, Charaxes wouldâve already been destroyed. Iâm missing Brooklyn 99 for this!
Batman- Iâm sorry this isnât *convenient* for you Lynns. Otis Flannegan murdered 15 GCPD officers to gain access to the sewer systems. He went on to stab Karl Kyle, maim Arthur Brown, cripple Onomatopoeia and was complicit in the sexual abuse of Joseph Rigger.
Gar- And?
Batman- Oh. I forgot I was talking to a psychopathic pyromaniac.
Charaxes- *cough* *cough*
Gar- Oh fuck, youâre still here? Go away.
Charaxes- You presume you can command me? A God?
Gar- Worth a shot
Charaxes- My metamorphosis is nearing its final stages. Once I am whole my children will consume Gothamâs population. I will rule over the survivors. If there are any tha-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh
*Charaxes screams as his body melts away, leaving nothing but bones*
Otis- There. All done.
Miranda- How?
Otis- Bug Repellent Rat Spray. Mix of acid, and acid. Patent Pending.
Miranda- Thatâs not a thing.
Otis- Only because the patent is still pending. Thanks for the call Drury, Iâm always glad to accept work
Drury- To be honest, I wouldâve probably just called Beast but you still have my copy of âThe Truman Showâ
We don't have time to wait on Arnie to get into the cyborg's comms. We gotta take their sorry asses down now. Luckily police scanners are a thing and wouldn't you know it? Over an hour after we ran out of the museum those douchebags in blue were still there, picking a fight with another type of douchebags in blue. Y'see, The militia twats are now holding down fort, the fort being the museum, with hostages. We head to museum and look into the clusterfuck from a sky window they didn't bust, and see the GCPD SWAT trading lead. "well, they got hostages, let's shoot the fuckers and see what happens!" I think I'm just gonna let Linda kill them. Would be doing the GCPD a big favor, probably. The gameplan Linda and I had was that I'd be up here with my refurbished Sasha, cleaning house and holding off the vermin while she goes for the hostages, who are apparently wrangled up in the basement according to scanner chatter. Jumping in's gonna be tough, and not just because it's as smack-dab in the middle of a fucking firefight. Our landing spot it occupied by some shitty sculpture that looks like it's gonna sexually assault me on my way to Saturn. Seriously, it's amazing the shit that passes as art these days. Nonetheless I give Linda a nod, she opens up the window, and we jump in on a hurricane of subsonic lead and testosterone...
When a beast like Man-Bat is terrorizing the sky's of Gotham, it's up to Batman and the GCPD--with their trusty Blimp--to take him down.
After getting the Black Mask head and Jim Gordon head, I have officially started writing out the first chapter, I'm hoping for a December 2nd release date to give myself enough time to take pictures and write the story. School has been pretty rough on me so I might not even to be able to make the Dec 2nd release date, but I will update you guys in the future

X-MEN '92 (2016) # 2
The machinations of the Fenris Twins! FEAR: The terror of Alpha Red! RELISH: The X-Men of the â90s, back in action!
Alias: King of Cats
Real Name: Karl Kyle
Gender: Male
Allegiance: Villain
Backstory: Childhood was tough for the three Kyle children, as their mother, Maria, left them early on, and their father, Brian, was a drunk. Karl was the middle child, and as such, he looked up to his older sister, Selina. She stood up for him and their little sister Maggie against their father more than enough times. It eventually got to the point where they would leave and never look back. Maggie would get adopted by a nice family, while Karl and Selina had to fend for themselves. Selina would eventually find Mama Fortuna, and learn how to become a thief. Karl somehow managed to get by, doing small jobs here and there for local gangs. Many years pass, before the first appearance of Catwoman. Karl instantly knew this was his sister, as she had an affinity for cats, and decided to follow in her footsteps, as the King of Cats. Unfortunately, he doesn't pose as much of a threat, especially when compared to his sister. But he definitely gets an A+ for effort. Hopefully one day he can step out of his sister's shadow.
Alias: Cluemaster (II)
Real Name: Stephanie Brown
Gender: Female
Allegiance: Villain
Backstory: Like father, like daughter, they say, and in this case, is quite true. Stephanie Brown would be taught the cruelties of the world from an early age, with her father being constantly taken away from her. All the money he earned through his crimes as Cluemaster would go to her schooling. Looking up to her dad, she would eventually become the second Cluemaster, when her father's locked up at Arkham for the umpteenth time. She would face off against the Batman once, where she'd easily lose. Since being broken out a year later, she's been a constant thorn in Redbird's (Tim Drake) side, no matter how many times they fight.
Alias: Dragonfly
Real Name: Sonia Alcana
Gender: Female
Allegiance: Villain
Backstory: Former GCPD officer, whose hatred for Rupert Thorne got in the way of her doing her job effectively. Her family had owned a shop in Gotham City, but when they refused to pay Rupert protection money, he had the shop burned down. They could never prove it was him, which is the main reason she joined the GCPD in the first place. In cases regarding Thorne, her judgement would become clouded, and she would forego protocol to go after him. This constantly happening lead to her being fired from the GCPD. She would turn to her old roomates in Kathy Duquesne and Roxanne Ballantine for help. With Kathy's wealth, her own martial arts ability, and Roxanne's gadgets along with technical know-how, these three became a force to be reckoned with. Of course, this was all but brief, as the Batman would take the three of them down along with Thorne. She, along with her friends, hold Batman responsible for allowing Thorne to live. The idea for her Dragonfly identity came from a charm she had as a little girl, that burned in the shop fire.
Alias: Silken Spider
Real Name: Kathy Duquesne
Gender: Female
Allegiance: Villain
Backstory: Daughter of mobster, Carlton Duquesne, she always had bodyguards, incase his enemies came for him. She blamed him for the death of her mother, as she died in the crossfire of a hit that was placed on him by Rupert Thorne. In college, she would meet Roxanne Ballantine, and Sonia Alcana, her two roommates that would later become her best friends. Each of them had a score to settle with Rupert Thorne, which would later lead to them teaming up, with Sonia asking Kathy and Roxanne for help.
Alias: Tiger Moth
Real Name: Roxanne "Rocky" Ballantine
Gender: Female
Allegiance: Villain
Backstory: Roxanne was gifted with remarkable genius. Always the top of her class, it would be an easy road to getting a science scholarship for Gotham State University. Once there, she roomed with Kathy Duquesne, and Sonia Alcana. She got a job at Wayne Enterprises, and would find love with a man named Kevin. Unfortunately, all good things come to an end, as through a partnership between Rupert Thorne, and Penguin, Kevin was framed for smuggling. This was just weeks before they were supposed to get married. She had no trouble joining in on the act of revenge with her former roommates. Unfortunately, the Batman foiled their plans, which resulted in them getting put behind bars, her job at Wayne Enterprises by proxy, gone.

Original picture by me
For several years, the streets of Gotham have been protected by the vigilante known as Batman. Night after night, the billionaire Bruce Wayne secretly wears the suit to defend the innocents against superpowered criminals trying to take over the city. But it seems that for once Bruce can have a good nightâs rest; in the span of just a few months, he has managed to put almost his entire rogues gallery inside the Arkham Asylum with only a couple of his most prominent enemies still running loose. Now that crime has declined to an astronomically low number for the first time in decades, Bruce decides to hang up the cowl for a while to focus on his personal life and finances while Commissioner Gordon and the rest of the GCPD take over most of his work.
Meanwhile, after an experiment involving injecting modified toxins extracted from plants into test subjects in the hopes of improving one's immune system goes haywire, one of the participants, the young botanist Pamela Isley ends up hospitalized in a critical condition. The doctors canât seem to figure out why her body is reacting so heavily because of the toxins, and more importantly how they could cure her before she will pass away. The more time passes, the more Pamelaâs skin starts to become green. After a few days the man responsible for the experiment, Dr. Jason Woodrue, decides to visit her in the hospital mainly to document the results of his toxins. As he takes pictures and notes down some interesting observations, he doesnât notice a bunch of sharp vines rising through the floor behind him. With one small hand movement, Pamela impales Jason with the vines leaving him to bleed out in the room. Confused about her new powers, she sneaks out of the hospital to seek shelter at her friendâs Harleen Quinzel and Selina Kyleâs place.
At the same time, following a failed escape attempt with explosives by one of the Arkham Asylum inmates, a large section of the prison got damaged. Even though none of the inmates or the guards got critically injured, the asylum is no longer fit to house some of the most dangerous criminals of the city until it gets repaired. Despite Batman being off-duty, Gordon still leaves him a message at the Bat-Signal asking him to guard the convoys the convicts are in while they get relocated to another nearby jail. After giving it some thought and discussing it with his butler Alfred, Bruce agrees to wear the suit for a short while again before continuing his break.
While the convoy drives through the city late at night, Batman follows it by running across the rooftops of buildings. As the group of transports stops at a red traffic light, he suddenly notices that the streets are starting to crack. Before he can glide down to check what is going on, gigantic plants erupt from beneath the street that heavily damage every single one of the transports. As Batman jumps off the building, the inmates detained in the convoy start to stumble out of the wreckage in an attempt to escape. Shortly after landing and making sure a couple of the criminals wonât make it away he notices Aaron Cash, a respected GCPD security guard holding crime lord Black Mask at gunpoint. As he tries to run towards him to try to figure out what is going on, he notices the cause of the destruction; some of the only villains he didn't manage to capture, Harley Quinn and Catwoman, are accompanied by someone he has never seen before who seems to control the plants. Before he can reach Aaron, another vine erupts from the ground below him knocking him out.
As he regains consciousness, a lot of the inmates have already managed to escape. Aaron helps him get back up on his feet as he notices a playing card laying on the street. He picks it up and sees it's a joker card with some writing on it.
ââJoker sends his regards.ââ
-The Gotham Sirens
Finally, the puzzle pieces fit together; the entire attack on the convoy was nothing more than a distraction to get Joker, the most dangerous villain Batman knows, out of prison along with causing more chaos around the city by releasing the rest as well. No matter what will happen, it will take Batman a lot of work to clean up this mess.

After seeing The Batman twice in the cinema a few weeks back, i can pretty confidently say that it is one of the best comic book movies in years. So following that, i got inspired to make a Batman figbarf very loosely inspired by the movie. Enjoy!
Case No: 4240026
Date: 15/12/13
Reporting Officer: Officer Dan Foley
Prepared By: Officer Dan Foley
Incident: Arrest of suspected arms dealer and attempted escape.
Detail of event: Arrest of Irish arms dealer that lead to a footchase and two officers down. Perpetrator taken down by SWAT leader. Well-trained and tough perp, too.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------
(Foley) He went off down the road!
Roger that.
*Skrrrrk* All units, this is SWAT Captain Wallace. We are in pursuit of an armed hostile, heading down 5th Street towards 1st Avenue.
Hey Foley, you might wanna hang back. He is armed, remember.
I'm not backing out now, Harry.
There! Down that alley! He just jumped the fence!
Copy that. Let's go.
Ready? Up and over-
*BRRRRRT*
FOLEY!
Drop the gun! I mean it! Drop the bloody MP5, 'else I'll drop this bitch right now!
*clatter*
Good.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------
Wallace dropped the gun. He knew that the perp meant business, and wouldn't hesitate to kill this woman. All Wallace needed to do was get the perp to point the gun away form the woman, and he'd be able to stop him.
And then the perp gave him his chance.
His Glock came up; coming around from the woman's face, coming in to bear with Wallce's head.
Time froze for Wallace. He could see the movement of the pistol, and could feel his heart thumping. this was go time.
Dropping his hand to his cross-chest holster, he gripped the handle of his .45, tugging it out and bringing it round. at the same time, his legs moved into the classic Weaver Stance; both hands around the grip, one leg behind the other.
And as the foresight blurred and the Irishman's shoulder came into focus, his thumb clicked down on the safety catch, and he pulled this trigger.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------
*BLAM*
Arrrrgh! You motherf-
Shut the fuck up.
Foley, you alright?
Yeah, I think. Just a flesh wound. Went right through, but godDAMN does it hurt.
That's good.
*Skrrrk* All units, this is Captain Wallace. I have the perp secure on 4th Street, with a shoulder wound. I also have an injured officer, with a leg wound.
HQ, we got him. Guess the next round's on you, huh Jim?
---------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------
Woooooh! I hate to leave a story unfinished, but I often find I do. Not this time!
Chalk one up for the SWAT team. Oh, and Foley's gonna be off work for a while, recuperating in the hospital. Ah well.
I still am not able to photo good. and it makes me very discouraged.
Bump for better pic.
I've been on the police force for my whole life it seems. Gotham is one of, if not the most, corrupt cities in the U.S. A melting pot of all the bad things anyone can think of, that's the perfect explanation for this city.
With all that said, I strive the hardest out of any GCPD officer to right the wrongs this city has committed. My battle has not been easy, or as successful as I would like.
There is, however, one man that I know works harder than me. He's the reason I shine this old light up into the sky. Many people believe he is just as corrupt as the rest of Gotham's thugs, but I know different. This city would be far worse if he wouldn't have become what he is today. Sometimes when I turn this light on he doesn't show up right behind me, but I know he's out there doing something more important than something I have to talk to him about.
My city needs work, but I'm glad knowing that there are people out there working just as hard if not harder than me to fix it...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Short story. Whatever.
Hey look! I already found a use for this bat signal.
