Just found out something while checking out The Question's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Question) Wikipedia entry:

Real name Charles Victor Szasz
"Vic" Sage

...Szasz? ...a name suspiciously close to the one of Batman's psycho serial killer enemy, Mr Zsasz?

...Am I the only one who noticed the similarity?

I spotted that when I was using Google to work out how to spell Zsasz.

I doubt there's a connection though

Just a coincidence. As I recall from Zsasz's origin, he came from a priveliged background, raised by loving parents, whereas Vic was an orphan. Charles Victor Szasz was the name they gave him at the orphanage, which he decided to change into Vic Sage for his "TV name". His parents weren't Mr & Mrs Szasz, he truly is a man without any true identity other than the Question.

I think Victor Szasz was a real-life famous psychiatrist. Not too sure though.
