The way Onomatopoeia is portrayed here is interesting. He watches Batman beatdown his men like it’s nothing and all he does is tilted his head, and seemingly changing positions to get a better look at the fights. Once he finally fights Batman, he starts avoiding Batman’s attacks with ease and uses the environment to benefit in the fight (something that Batman did to his men). Onomatopoeia studied the Batman, so he could fight the Batman.

[@SaeParsan]

And in such a short period of time

[@AdamSwyvern101]

Something more interesting is the fact Onomatopoeia must say the words before he does any action like throwing a punch or kicking but afterwords Batman finds out his weakness as and hits him in the throat and punches him giving me the idea that Onomatopoeia has some sort of mental illness that causes him to say what he’s gonna do like an action

[@GreaserMan]

It's a little bit more complicated than that. The allure of Onomatopoeia in the comic is you have no idea if he's just mimicking the sounds or if he's actually somehow recreating the exact audio. It gives him this slight supernatural edge to him that makes him a lot creepier.

I do quite like seeing him in this show and his gimmick of speaking only in verbal onomatopoeia's is really entertaining especially when fighting Batman, plus I really like his design too with the black trenchcoat and hat. I do hope more DC projects use the character maybe in a hypothetical Green Arrow movie or animated show since I also like the idea of him being a serial killer that hunts down non powered vigilantes around the world.

I don't like the coat and hat. Make him look like he's stealing Rorschach's style while keeping his own mask and color scheme. Even the Question who, canonically, based his look on Rorschach's, didn't get that close. He also tried to fight like him, but decided, and I quote, "Rorschach sucks..."

[@bananawithaknife]

@@Bluesit32 If we're talking about the characters in a meta sense. Rorschach was actually the one based on the Question. To be more accurate, Rorschach was a reply to the first version of the Question of the time (as in the way he's written, I'm not talking about multiverse stuff here) and the themes & philosophies of the stories he was in. So if they're using the same style to do explore the same ideas, I'm ok with that.

[@MisterEvvvSymphoenix]

A pretty cool portrayal of Onomatopoeia. What would would have been _really_ fascinating is if Onomatopoeia had such high focus and pain tolerance that he can (mockingly) make sounds for Batman's blows, even when he's being beaten up. It would show that Batman's punches aren't really shaking him up much, like how Green Goblin just smiled and laughed, looking Spiderman dead in the eye as he got punched. When he has Batman figured out, he starts calling sound effects *_before_* Batman can make a move, or before he has even punched the guy, as if it's inevitable that he'll land the blow. Then when Batman starts adapting, Onomatopoeia starts getting the sound effects wrong, and out of timing, since he can't predict Batman anymore. His sounds are cut short as Batman's strikes come too fast. Then, when he's finally punched in the throat, he wheezes out a delayed sound effect: "p-pow ..." as if it's really an obsessive compulsive disorder, that he _has_ to make these sound effects even when it's not appropriate. Then, next time he shows up (IF he shows up again), he starts calling out false sounds occasionally to throw off Batman. When Batman gains the upper hand and Onomatopoeia is punch-drunk, Batman simply says 'bang'. Out of sorts and on edge, Onomatopoeia flinches back, trips and is down for the count.

[@Shinigami13133]

so, from what I've seen of this show so far the only thing I really hate is how dirty they did Harvey Bullock

[@user-kd7im7hs2j]

I am happy that Onomatopoeia gets the recognition he deserves. Some people believe that his "thing" of saying sounds wouldn't work outside of comics, but honestly, I like it.

[@TheBumblebeeChannel24]

Haven’t seen the show yet but that fight inside the house reminds me of the Rocketeer

[@xaythearsonist2003]

If you get pieced up by a guy who literally makes the fighting sounds just leave and call it quits.

[@edneddy2]

I think I like this version of Batman: he's not the apex being with all the gadgets and mixed martial arts that others have portrayed him. He's still a man who wants to do right for the city and even he has his limits.

[@kidroyale5936]

Onomatopoeia always frustrates me because he’s such a cool looking villain, especially in the comics, and I love the fact that he’s a vicious serial killer who focuses on street level superheroes. But then you make him say the action word as the actual action is literally happening and it just becomes silly and redundant. Like his whole existence is just to be a neat visual when reading comics, and while that is a fun lil on-the-nose idea, I feel like that’s such a waste for such a badass looking character. That’s something I would expect for crazy quilt or condiment king, not dc’s answer to bullseye ya kno? 💀 (tho ig dead shot would actually be dc’s bullseye), but I mean more so in the viscous aspect

He could work in a spider verse type animated movie tbh

[@kidroyale5936]

@@billyboleson2830 I agree

[@questworldiangreenknight7455]

Here’s what I’d do to make him scary, instead of him having a normal voice saying these things, his helmet should have a weird vocal effect that mimics the sound with more echo. It would make him sound much more intimidating instead of hilarious. (I’ve put a lot of thought into how I’d adapt him, I like writing DC script ideas 😂)

Lady Penguin works, just wish the name wasn't OswaldA. Otherwise, completely fine & pretty badass. Iceberg Lounge being a casino boat is killer.

[@justwannabehappy6735]

I prefer the new look of Harley. It fits the original. Plus, I was tired of the porn clown theme. As a matter of fact, I'm tired of every woman appearing in a comic book looking like a pornstar. If I wanted to bust a nut, I'd be visiting pornhub for free with actual pornstars.

In normal comics Jim Corrigan is a good guy detective cop who got killed and was revived by "The Voice" as an omnipotent The Spectre , he is co-created by Jerry Siegel who also created Superman. Also The Spectre is the major influence on Dr. Manhattan powers.

[@yammt3148]

I like that he can box with Batman.

[@mowgli2071]

They're getting hard up for villain gimmicks now. "We got a guy in a mask but we got no idea what to call him." "What's he doing?" "The usual bad guy fight scene with stock Foley noises" "What if you just have the guy say the name of those noises and that's his gimmick?" "Well, I don't have anything better"

[@CHESS-MAN2491]

He's been around for a good second, but I get what your saying It doesn't make it any less cool tho

[@precascer8221]

Among the versions Onomatopoeia had (specially that sick live action one), I've never seen him like, shooting by saying *bang* but without a gun. If he makes the sound of "ratatata" for instance, he could shoot without a gun. It's a concept I've only seen in Inuyashiki so far, and this kind of idea would suit him greatly here. Off the curve of what Onomatopoeia is? Sorta. But still.

Seeing him in action, I can't help but feel that Kevin Smith was right when he said Onomatopoeia only works in a comic book format.

[@mayotango1317]

He work so well here.

[@judgem0rt1s23]

@@mayotango1317 No he doesn't. In the comics, they had him saying sound effects out loud in place of them putting the actual sound effects next to the action, which is quaint as well as threatening, and only makes sense in that format. When you animate him, he's just a weird dude making sound effects for no reason, unlike the comics. Whether or not he is a legitimate threat is irrelevant because his little speech quirk is a detriment when you give him an actual voice. But, whatever, I don't expect people these days to understand subtle themes. After all, why watch Batman the Animated series for the genius writing when they could just jingle shiny keys in front of our eyes? "OH WOW, IT'S ONOMATOPOEIA!! THEY ANIMATED HIM FOR ONCE SO I'M JUST GOING TO DEFEND HIM WITH MY LIFE!" Also, off topic, the swearing adds nothing to this show. When the phrase "You can go to hell" in Justice League Animated has more impact than a group of random characters dropping F-Bombs for no reason, then you definitely have a show that's doomed to fail.

[@JoshNBAMovies]

[@humorme6132]

personally I enjoyed it, I understand the desire for strong impact, but before calling it quits on him in media other than comics, can't we just see his future in this show? I'm kind of suspecting he's going to be a breakout villain with a much bigger role in future seasons, this episode seemed like a teaser for him, to me at least. I'd like if we gave it a shot beyond this one episode. Just keeping an open mind y'know?

1:42 Classic school of (Jackie) Chan: everything in your environment is a weapon if you're creative enough.

[@paulpatrong5113]

They made a more serious noire type criminal mystery show for batman and had Onomatopoeia portray a generic mob boss who just does sound effects instead of the comics where he was a serial killer who used his voice to mimic sounds and psychologically mess with his opponents. This is like re-writing a master thief into Swiper from Dora. Upset my whole day.

[@sarafontanini7051]

still closer to the spirit of the character than the version seen in Superman & Lois
