About #2, We see in Arkham Shadow that Ratcatcher was born 4/20/1988 when Barbra brings up his records (BAV's full game video 4:04:38), so it physically can NOT be in the 90s as Otis would only be a child and not a fully grown man with greying hair

Haven't seen anyone else say this, so I'll put it here. Amadeus Arkham's story of killing the man who killed his family is kind of a parallel to the story of Batman and Joker in these games especially. Amadeus met "Mad Dog" Hawkins when trying to cure him of his murderous tendencies. These attempts caused Hawkins to develop an obsession with the one who kept trying to "fix" him. Similarly, Joker began his obsession with Batman when the Dark Knight refused to kill him, repeatedly sending him to Blackgate and later the Asylum to get psychological help instead. "Mad Dog" eventually escaped the Asylum and murdered Amadeus' family. Joker repeatedly escaped with little to no difficulty and, among the many crimes he committed over the years, crippled Barbara Gordon and "killed" Jason Todd, who were members of the Bat-Family. Amadeus murdered Hawkins in revenge for the deaths of his family. We'll never know for sure whether or not Batman would have saved Joker that day in Arkham City. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but the two stories sound similar to me.

When Batman lists the diagnosis of Riddler, he does it to prove a point to Selina that Edward is this obsessive person. He often figures out that Bruce is Batman, yet dismisses all evidence because he doesn't want to believe a playboy billionaire is able to beat him. Batman trying to stroke Edwards ego may work initially but he would start to question it and see it for a trap. The reason why he is so dangerous is his inability to let it go. He must defeat Batman and he has to do it his way, not just win but humiliate Batman along the way.

In the cancelled Damien Wayne game wasn’t one of the villains black masks daughter? As she was shown with dr elements! Black Mask and Young might’ve had a kid. It probably explains why black mask was so eager to leave Arkham city! (As you can see where he breaks out of Arkham City in game)!

I always eat Arkham Batman content up bc this universe is so rich with lore and it’s takes on characters (not always). Riddler becoming “good” if he got told by Batman he is better than him I don’t think that would last long bc he would feel that it wasn’t genuine.

If you ask me, Batman admitting Riddler is better than him wouldn't work because either: 1. Riddler would convince himself that Batman doesn't mean it (which he might be right but either way he won't believe it until he gets a definitive win by making Batman fail a hostage puzzle or something) 2. He'll just move his obsession with being the smartest to someone else, potentially someone less capable, causing more harm than if he stayed obsessed with Batman and perpetuating the cycle

Theory 1 - Nah, characters come and go all the time in the Arkham series. The lack of any references to Leslie are likely because the devs didn't think about her since they had yet to introduce her. I mean, she could be dead, but until there's a body, it's just developer oversight. Theory 2 - Do you not remember the big plot point for Quincy Sharp in Asylum and City? He was mind controlled by Hugo Strange into thinking he's possessed by Amadeus Arkham, who died in the 1800s. That plaque is too high up for the criminals of Arkham City to reached, so it was vandalized by someone else - you know, unless one of those criminals played baseball or football and lobbed grenade at the plaque, since that is not burn damage. It'd take more than fire to do that to a metal plaque. Anyway, it should be obvious that the plaque was likely made when Quincy still thought he was Amadeus, and thus that year is probably some point in the 1800s, not the 90s. It's a matter of Quincy still being under mind control, not the Arkhamverse being in the 90s. Theory 3 - This one actually makes a lot of sense. Theory 4 - So, we're just forgetting the fact she has multiple files and other artifacts in her office? Also, we already know that Dr. Young was evil - she tortured Bane for fuck's sake. Theory 5 - No. Just... no. Those are just easter eggs, nothing more. Also, why would Jason Todd put that target on himself, knowing full well a lot of the heroes of the DC Universe would laugh at such a threat? Really, a bomb threat is meant to stop Constatine from doing some? Superman is just going to ignore Gotham because Jason said he'd blow it up? C'mon. And, yes, Alfred does state it was a public message, but that just meant it was sent around the city. That doesn't mean he sent it across the fucking world. Theory 6 - First, it wasn't Black Mask who hired the assassins, it was Joker pretending to be Black Mask who hired the assassins. Second, why would Joker hire Electrocutioner? Why the fuck do you think? Cause it's funny! It's the Joker, he doesn't have to explain any of his actions apart from thinking it'd be funny. Theory 7 - Black Spider isn't a member of the League of Assassins, and Cheshire is a freelance assassin. Also, why would Joker reject them? He's the Joker, he doesn't need a reason. Probably decided it wouldn't be funny enough or something. Theory 8 - Hush couldn't have been the one to do Hammer and Sickle's surgery, at least not in Origins. In Arkham City, the story for the twins states that they were still conjoined when Joker sent Harley to retrieve them. They hadn't had their surgery yet. So, it's impossible for these twins to be the same ones, as this conversation happened several years before Joker sent Harley to get the still conjoined twins. Theory 9 - Makes sense. Creeper does have a slight healing factor, so the quick healing of Jack's injuries, and lack of any new ones, do help this theory. Plus, Jack doesn't always know about his other half - some stories do have the Creeper as a dual personality situation. Theory 10 - So, we just forgetting how Riddler debuted in the Arkhamverse? In Arkham Origins, this man was trying to cause mass panic and outrage by doxing influential people. At best he'd be a vigilante who takes things too far. Plus, he's stubborn. He won't believe he's won until Batman is dead. How do we know? He refuses to believe Batman is Bruce Wayne just because he wasn't the one who figured it out.

About the Riddler. I feel like even if Batman were to say something like, "Okay Riddler, you win, you're more intelligent than I am." It simply wouldnt satisfy the Riddler. Nigma wants to prove he's better by outsmarting or blatently killing the Batman, so Batman simply saying Riddler is better wouldnt be enough for him to feel superior. Even then, Batman can't let Riddler win because it would innevitably end with the deaths of innocent people or Batman's death. Thats just what I think though, maybe he would could be a better person.

It's supposed to be an Easter Egg to BTAS because the series is set in an alternate timeline where everyone dresses like they're in the 40s but they also have modern technology. My guess is the date on the plaque is because the Arkham games carry on BTAS. It only makes sense to set the timeline in a nebulous era set somewhere between the 1940s and the 1990s or whatever.

In regards to the Deathstroke one, I swear to god I remember reading at the time of Knight’s release that WB & Rocksteady didn’t really communicate during development - and that’s why Knight got delayed. They tried to shoe-horn in a few of their villains from Origins, hence the Zsasz mission being cut and Firefly/Deathstroke being shoved in

Hey GP, great video. I was the one who mentioned the Electricutioner not being an original assassin choice and there's a few more reasons why I don't think he was: 1. His 'boss fight' isn't a real fight. He gets KO'd in one move, unlike every other assassin. Even Anarky who was a teenager put up a better fight than him and that just doesn't make sense for an assassin. 2. Leading up to his unaliving scene, when Joker is getting irritated, he doesn't care and plays his video game. No assassin who truly wanted the money would do that, they'd be planning like everybody else did to take down Batman. 3 Unless I am mistaken, this was Electricutioner's only appearance in any sort of Batman media. Every other assassin has appeared in something before Origins.

1:09 Its possible that like the comics Lesile just left Gotham to handle other medical stuff im different regions or she dropped contact with Bruce after Jason died. 2:14 Arkham Origins takes place in 2013 due to a calender left on the background so its likely a retcon or just the guy who made the plack was stupid or something. 6:13 Young was his therapist in Arkham and she was considering using him for her Titan project in her notes. The mask seems to be made of wood meaning it was Roman's original mask that he made out of his father's coffin. Maybe she kept it there to make him feel at home as she states he's a little more easy due to him likely not being insane. 6:13 its likely Ra's Didn't send Cain after Batman because he was still figuring out who Batman was so he didn't know how personal he had to make the fight be. 6:13 This one depends if you wanti take the arkham city comic as canon as he actually did remove them there but its possible you can chose this one to be canon. 6:13 In Arkham Shadow Ryder does am endorsement for a tonic from the man who made The Creeper syrum in the comics so its possible that Jack has to drink a liquid to turn into The Creeper. Jack does have D.I.D so he does forget when he is The Creeper. 17:36 He would leave Batman alone but Ed would still want Gotham as he belives that he so smart he should do what he wants without question. So while Bruce would be fine Ed would still rob banks and hack into systems. Remember Riddler met Batman because he wanted to start a mass riot in Gotham because he could and it's implied that his actions may have influenced The Rat King in Arkham Shadow.

I think them shoehorning Slade into AK wouldn't be because of promoting JL as it was two years away, and Slade played such a minor role in that film that it wouldn't do much for promoting the movie. Even more so with how minor he was in Ak. If they did shoehorn him into the game I think it would be more so to tie of loose ends, so I'm pretty sure at the time AK was going to be the final Arkham game or thing set in that universe. So it was a last minute choice to try and tie up a loose end.

The only confirmed year we have is 1988 which is when Otis Flannegan was born therefore it needs to be at least twenty years after this year when Arkham Shadow takes place. I've also looked into this a bit more and cross-references the Batman Easter egg calendars in SSKTJL (look I don't care if you flame me) with years and the only one that would be possible is Suicide Squad being set in 2024 Based off of this I believe that the timeline goes: Arkham Origins: Initiation (2007) Arkham Origins Prequel Comics (2009) Arkham Origins (Dec 24th-25th 2009) Arkham Origins Cold Cold Heart (Dec 31st 2009) Arkham Origins Blackgate (Mar/Apr 2010) Arkham Shadow (July 4th - 11th 2010) Arkham Knight: Batgirl Begins (2010) Arkham Origins: Multiplayer (2012) Arkham Knight: Genesis (2015 - 2016) Arkham Knight: A Matter of Family (Feb 14th 2016) Arkham Asylum: The Road To Arkham (June 2017) Arkham Asylum (June 2017) Arkham City Prequel Comics (Late 2018/Early 2019) Arkham City (Jan 2019) Arkham City: Harley Quinn's Revenge (2019) Arkham City: Endgame (2019) Arkham VR (2019) Arkham Knight Prequel Comics (2019) Arkham Knight: Harley Quinn Story Pack (2019) Arkham Knight (Oct 31st 2019) Arkham Knight: Catwoman's Revenge (2019) Arkham Knight: GCPD Lockdown (2019) Arkham Knight: A Flip of A Coin (2019) Arkham Knight: Red Hood Story Pack (2019) Suicide Squad Kills Arkham Asylum (2024) Suicide Squad Kills The Justice League (2024)

Good stuff! I was going to be picky about the "Rejected Assassins" segment, and couldn't wait to let out a screeching _ ACTUALLY_ but I was foiled by my own researches... I thought that Black Spider, when this game was being made, had never been part of the League of Assassins, so he couldn't have been rejected because of that. But turns out that Eric Needham (that many probably know from *Batman: Assault on Arkham* ) had been linked to the League of Shadows for the first time in the character's career (and several people took on that mantle) in 20212, in *Young Justice* season 1... In my mind Young Justice aired a bit after *Arkham Origins* , but since unlike Asylum & City, I didn't buy Origins right when it came out and waited a year or so for various reasons, I guess my internal timeline is messed up because of that. Well done. When it comes to Executionner, to be fair he isn't the only assassin shown attacking the goons that Black Mask/Joker sent alongside the invitation False Facer to "test" the skills of the mercenaries. While some like Copperhead, Killer Croc, Deadshot and Firefly seem to be taking out people not related to Black Mask in their segments, others like Bane, Shiva, Electrocutionner and possibly Deathstroke take out guys either wearing black masks or clearly working for Roman Sionis (the dude who gave the contract to Slade didn't wear a mask, but he was obviously a member of the False Face Society) So, Lester Buchinsky tazing that false facer in his highlight doesn't mean much; when it comes to the why, why was he chosen since he seems to suck, my guess is that he *is* usually better, but like Joker pointed out, "when I hire you to kill the Batman, you KILL THE BATMAN", you don't just flap your gums instead of preparing for combat. For all we know he's usually a good fighter, and from his shock gloves he seems to be a decent tinkerer, and he has some contacts with the underworld (like the Penguin) Sure he isn't as impressive as some of the other names on that list, but like Garfield Lynns/Firefly he's a local guy who wouldn't be hard to find, and unlike a lot of other candidates, he isn't too close thematically to anyone else in the assassin group, yay variety! (I realize that it's the in-world explanation, not Joker's rational, but the dude had a lot on his plate and he might have hired some convenient guys on the big shots had been secured) Anyway, time to unpause the video and check the rest out!

I would say Leslie dies before knight but is probably alive in the other games, Her help in Shadow was a very specific situation in the other games I don't see what she could offer. In Asylum she is not in the Asylum She is likely not in Arkham City Knight is the only one that you can see her sticking around to help but if she is alive she is likely quite old and infirm at that point as she is in the animated series she could have evacuated. But based on her character I would say she would insist on sticking around so I agree she likely has passed on by then.

I view Sionis’ mask being in Dr Youngs office as a trophy from her career. She possibly did a lot of positive treatment on him and maybe even cured him of some things. Or was a way to try and re cognate his brain by separating the entity from him. Similar to how to treat the Ventriloquist you would take Scar Face away from Arnold.

The timeline theory always made sense to me because in arkham origins there's an air duct cleaning schedule posted on a whiteboard in the gcpd with dates listed from like 1974 to 1976 also it would help explain some of the more anachronistic style choices such as old boxy televisions and cars existing alongside smartphones and the advanced technology could be from waynetech or lexcorp or some such

I think if Batman were to tell riddler that he won or that he is superior the riddler wouldn’t believe him. Riddler is super suspicious about things like this like when Batman’s identity was revealed. I think the only way riddler could see himself superior is by killing him. And even then he may not believe he killed him. He would probably have to do DNA tests and conductive research before ever believing that he was superior.

Here's a half-baked theory: SQKTJL Takes place in a different universe. The only ones garunteed to be from the original Arkhamverse would be Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, and Deathstroke. I'm not gonna lie, I'm looking too deep into this one. Maybe I'll share my findings in the future?

The Birds of Prey are also in Gotham during Knight and we’re confirmed to be aiding to protect civilians who couldn’t get out. Plus we know villains like Zsasz are in Gotham and Bruce saw him on the camera when Jason took Barbara. So that’s likely what’s going on with the other heroes. They’re dealing with Zsasz, Prometheus, and the other villains Bruce couldn’t get to.

In Arkham Knight there was a theory going around on the internet that everything Joker says/speaks to Batman, is actually Batman's own mind voice/thought, of what Batman feels Joker would say/do IMO I don’t necessarily find this as a theory it’s more as a unpopular opinion idk it could be me 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ok so obviously real world facts don't really line up with fiction but two things we know about the arkham verse timeline in relation to ours is 1: it has to be after 1977 because joker mentions elvis being dead in arkham knight 2: a phonecall in arkham shadow for maze of the minotaur has dlc, the first game with dlc was total annihilation in 1997, but dlc didn't really become popular until the iconic horse armour from skyrim in 2006, which i think would push arkham knight to actually take place in the year it came out Again not any tangible in world evidence but interesting to note

That door in Lacey Towers isn't Dr. Young's apartment. At least, I doubt that's what WB Montreal intended. It just doesn't make sense for a doctor to place their profession on their residence. I would assume it's Young's small private pratice, as that's fairly common to see a building with both residential units and business offices. Does that feed into Young/Black Mask partnership... idk 🤷‍♂️

Leslie Tompkins is a doctor. She was friends with Bruce Wayne‘s father Thomas Wayne who Was a Surgeon / Doctor and she was very close to the Waynes and Bruce when he was growing up. And after his parents murder so later on when he becomes Batman if he gets severely injured and it’s beyond Alfred Pennyworth medical skills and Bruce / Batman can’t go to a hospital he goes to her for medical treatment and she knows he’s Batman
