Rocksteady made a great choice with Arkham knight being Jason Todd. Only problem is I wish he would’ve been established or even mentioned in the Arkham series. But overall the Arkham knight is an amazing villain

[@Samuel152]

There were two small instances where Jason was teased in previous Arkham games. In Asylum, Joker mentions that Batman could use a new sidekick. In City if you play Robin in Joker's Fun House, Joker would occasionally say, "Didn't I kill you already?" But both of them can be overlooked before retrospect.

[@siobibble9078]

If it was going to be Jason it should have just been red hood

[@gothamwarrior]

@@Samuel152I think that’s just a reference to Batman lore. Especially since in Arkham Asylum they didn’t know that the Arkham Knight was going to be a thing.

Aside from Jason Todd, I also theorized that it was Prometheus at that time, especially since Arkham Knight claimed himself to be the opposite of Batman. Prometheus appearance also has been teased multiple times in BAA & BAC. Turn out Prometheus was about to be in BAK im Season of Infamy DLC, but completely got cut because of time constraints.

[@terminustaylor6027]

I think Jason was a good idea, what ruined it was shoving that fact that it was him in our faces

[@vigil7924]

Arkham knight could've worked as Jason. His character would have been a lot better if they changed two things. First, establish his identity early on, and allow the game to fully explore Jason and Bruce's conflict and dynamic. This also gives a lot more meaning to the hallucinations with Jason and makes it make more sense for why they happen. Second, make Deathstroke the general of the milita instead of AK, and have Jason be sort of a solo anti hero who is trying to stop scarecrow but also wants revenge on Batman and wants him to kill scarecrow. Now if it couldn't be Jason, I think Talia would have been unexpected and could work in the context of the story, other than that I like the idea of it just being a new character with unique motivations and origins.

[@Strangeminds38]

I really love this idea, Jason partnering up with Scarecrow and the villains felt wrong and out of place.

[@patrickkolstee5692]

YES! Put Batman in a few situations where he couldn’t get out without help, and have AK swoop in and save him, but then have other conflicts in the story where you have to battle AK because he’s getting in your way or attacking you directly… that makes his loyalty very confusing and makes Batman further question “who IS this guy?!?!” But then makes sense to learn that AK/Jason wants you to “do what is necessary” and is frustrated with your one rule -thereby frustrated with you directly.

[@enyekem]

Could’ve been like under the red hoods movie with them basically establishing red hood as Jason from the start

[@YSleepish]

Make hush one of the main villains too, batman was revealed to be Bruce Wayne and wow it's almost like someone has made their face look exactly like him.

[@jacobclark6002]

I really thought the big twist would be that the Arkham Knight armor was just beefy as shit with mechanical upgrades and it would be Talia under there. She has previous inclusion and weight in the main story of Arkham City, she has his identity, the resources, the fighting skill, and her family is known for coming back to life even crazier than before they died (not to mention there was a lazarus pit RIGHT THERE).

[@alisonkluckman9189]

K wait, that Thomas Wayne idea is actually really good but also insane.

[@gooficat]

But it makes ras al ghul and the Lazarus a major plot point all over again which isn't really a good idea

[@BlindCoyoteGod]

I had an idea back when the game was coming out that it was an AI/Robot. Which would’ve essentially made the Arkham Knight Proto-Failsafe.

[@HAIL_TO_THE_KING5]

Didnt they essentially do that with Bruce in Gotham knights

[@DanielValentin0508]

I don't think it could have been anyone but Jason. His design is too similar already to red hood, and his voice is so whiny you can tell he's a kid

[@Kero-zc5tc]

Plus it goes really well with joker, he is fighting the joker even if he doesn’t know it. I sometimes wonder what he felt when he saw batman laughing like joker who beat him and branded him

[@mightybusker5338]

Here’s a deep cut. What about Lionel Bolton lock up?

[@user-oh6vv2qb3x]

Damien Wayne would’ve worked better with the story since his mother was in the game before and there wasn’t much about Jason in the games

[@Sully..]

Damian wanting revenge for his mother would’ve made much more sense because he was raised by ecoterrorists who are also ninjas with tons of resources which explains the ninja enemy types and the massive army and the willingness to destroy Gotham and partner up with scarecrow Jason being a terrorist militia leader is super out of character then he just immediately abandons it in pursuit of killing criminals which he was never shown to care about he’s literally partnered up with one of Batman’s greatest foes and somehow called a truce between more major villains and coordinate a plan to attack the city on the same night which seems more like a Damian and league of assassins thing to do so imo Jason wasn’t the only option for the Arkham knight

[@FreddyKruegerTheDreamDemon]

Some of you are forgetting Damian would've been about 8, not exactly possible for him to be the Arkham Knight.

[@TemptationsofaRaggedAngel]

I really thought Eli Strange was going to be the Arkham Knight, using the remnants of TYGER and possible a modified version of one of his father’s batsuits to see vengeance against Batman for the death of his father during Arkham City.

[@anthonyhubbard8]

Ooh that’s an interesting choice. It would also explain why he would know so much about Batman

[@mattt115]

I think Jason would been cool if it wasn’t to telling or if bats would find clues and seconds guess himself .... but I think I would had wanted knight to be his own thing

[@Climinator-op6kh]

Chip Shreck from Batman Returns. Think about it he could easily have suited the Arkham-verse as his father could've been murdered by Catwoman in that universe and he blames not only her but Batman for inspiring these costumed freaks in Gotham. Plus he's wealthy enough to afford the technology and also would've been the sort to spend time working out a lot probably.

[@daredevil5072]

Anarchy bro really disappeared for many years and was even mentioned on his disappearance at the police department by cash just need a motive for being an Arkham Knight and boom good story ( unless he got eaten by killer croc or murdered by the court of owls)

[@jeffreyflowers5203]

I remember thinking Damian could work as a story but honestly the idea of some new character maybe a former guard who blames Batman for the worst night of his life but then comes all the resources

[@darth_thane129]

In my head I always wanted someone related to Quincy Sharp (like a son/brother/ admirer/ even a chosen heir much like Amadeus Arkham chose Quincy Sharp to continue the Arkham legacy) to be the Arkham Knight! And I will explain why. First Rocskteady teased the character like someone we didn’t know for sure and the angle of a Sharp family member or acquaintance would’ve been nice. Second, in Arkham Knight Quincy Sharp basically gives up on life off screen. I think if it was a bit more explored I would’ve given the feeling that we truly don’t know who this guy was but he was worthy enough to pick up what remained of the Arkham legacy and avenge the events of Arkham Asylum and Arkham City. The motive would’ve been to remove Batman to have no other obstacles to revive the Arkham legacy again and to continue with the projects they did in the past (Titan/Protocol 10/ Opening of other Arkham sites all over the world, so on). I don’t know maybe it doesn’t sound convincing but I think it would’ve been cool

[@Cenikid]

Would have been cool, but a different design philosophy would be in order. More leaning into that shit quincy was talking about in his schizo rants around asylum

[@darth_thane129]

@@Cenikid true. Though the rants could be easily ignored because yeah he ranted a lot of the different patients, Joker, Ivy and others.

@@darth_thane129 oh i mean schizo kind of jokingly, but what was cool about quincy was the sophistication of his delusion, making it feel like there was a possibility of some unknowable truth behind his self proclaimed prophetic duty.

[@darth_thane129]

@@Cenikid yeah, that’s why I love the Arkham franchise. Specially speaking of Asylum, because you can overlook so many things but when take the time to read and listen everything you can tell something very sinister was going on for years on Arkham and we get to experience it while roaming in the island. I personally couldn’t explain it but I got to visit a mental facility once and it gave a really eerie vibe and playing this game gave a bit of an “explanation” as to why these places tend to have a eerie atmosphere

@@darth_thane129 in asylum, the actual place is a character. It fights you through locked doors and access keys, deteriorating walls and evil plants. If trauma was able to live in a place, itd be there, and you can feel it

[@edo.creative]

The wardon and mayor would have been the perfect choice. Quincy sharp is an original character whos life gets destroyed by batman to an insane degree. Like the guy loses everything at the end of city. If he controlled a robot Arkham knight or collaborated with someone who dressed up as the knight that would have been a great option imo, Arkham also fits him so well considering his history. It would have also connected the trilogy together and Rocksteady would have been right about him being an original character.

I’m pretty sure Rocksteady said that it was a character from previous games, so this made the most sense and would have been interesting.

Someone once brought the idea to me that the Joker hallucinations with Jason was Bruce’s subconscious saying “Cmon you know who it is” but Bruce was in denial because he genuinely thought Jason was dead Ever since that I’ve gaslit myself into a new found respect for the reveal

[@Sully..]

I’ve heard this idea too but it was slightly different it was that the contrived flashbacks were Bruce’s subconscious saying you know who the knight is but once the knights identity is revealed Batman believes it to be Jason come to find out it’s someone completely different and Jason was a red herring and is actually dead and Batman fooled himself into believing jason was alive and after him but red hood would later be shown as being in the city watching Batman and the events of the game play out I thought it was a cool idea at the least

[@minedoe]

I would have loved if the arkham knight was a new character. Idea of someone who knows so much about Batman’s personal life but with a completely unknown identity is super cool to me. Also his suit was so cool and i would have loved to see him become a reoccurring batman villain.

[@bddb9239]

A disillusioned Dick Grayson, having seen Bruce destroy so many lives on his crusade. Barbara was paralyzed, Jason dead, and Tim was being groomed to have fanatical loyalty. And now Bruce was finally killing some of his rogues? Could definitely have been Dick with only a little bit of tweaking.

[@bddb9239]

You guys are missing the point, a disillusioned Dick might see things that way. You know, how Jason twisted events to fit his hate. Also remember, most people in the arkham games only have Batmans word that he didn't kill the joker, and not everyone believes that.

He could later be in arkham city as a political prisoner that was sent there by strange as strange knew he would be a problem. He would also be involved with the league of assasins as he wanted batman to become the demons head.

[@scotia7326]

Tim Drake. Had the ability to beat Batman by being trained by him. Had mostly been inside the Panessa studios throughout the game. Never interacts with the Knight, barely mentions anything outside of the Jokers. Felt shunned by Batman, always being in his shadow, wanted to improve Gotham by killing Batman and taking his place. He had motive, opportunity and Rocksteady could have really shook up the narrative by having the current Robin be the Knight instead of a former Robin.

[@anthonyhubbard8]

Honestly a great plot twist. The only thing would be that it is kinda character assassination. Maybe it could work if it was due to Dr. Strange’s and Mad Hatter’s brainwashing that occurred sometime during the events of Arkham City since we know Tim was there that night. And having the suit be a part of Tyger gear and based off of Strange’s batsuits designs could have worked. (As a side note, it would also have been cool for the hallucinations to make Batman see and think it was Todd at first due to his guilt. Sort of as a red herring)

[@scotia7326]

@@anthonyhubbard8 yeah exactly! Think about it, all the hallucinations when Batman is in the movie studios remain the same, joker constantly mentions Todd but before the unmasking, Batman says to Alfred that he’s figured it out and says “Jason.” But the Knight says “Wrong Robin.” And we see it’s Tim.

The AK 1000% should’ve been Jason Todd and I’m happy they went with him especially when you understand that the way The Joker pretends to be shocked by Jason’s reveal shows that Bruce definitely thought it was Jason but didn’t WANT to believe it was him (compare this to Joker thinking Barbara is dead bc Batman thought Barbara died and Joker is only an extension of Bruce in this game)

Damian Wayne aged up through cloning or the Lazarus put. Then I'd have red hood show up at the end to help out

I could totally see that Thomas Wayne idea tho. Like imagine, they set it up to be Damian getting revenge for his mother, so Bruce starts to believe it’s Damian, and during a fight, Bruce cuts the Arkham Knight, and he tests the blood, and it shows that AK is related to Bruce, but he can’t figure out who it is, because the DNA has been tampered with. So Bruce goes to AK and tries to snap him out of it, talking to him like he’s Damian, only for AK to take off his helmet and reveal that it’s actually a resurrected Thomas Wayne that’s being controlled by Damian and Ra’s al Ghul.

It would’ve been cool if Slade turned into the Arkham knight..since he lost against Batman as Deathstroke, he would’ve created the persona

[@hahahahaehhehehehehe]

Alfred. It should have been Alfread. It should always be Alfred. All Hail Almighty Arkham Knight Alfred!
