Reinvent that Campy villain

[Spycrab Killer]

No, he's so awesome in that picture!!!

NO, NO, NO!

Make him like that guy in Eraserhead.

[the4thpip]

How about turning Kite-Man into a transgendered pedophile serial killer to make him more edgy?

Good grief.

[Apathy Lad]

Genius full proof plan!

Eraser: His parents used pencils to abuse him, and after killing them he turned to crime!

Kite-Man: His parents used kites to abuse him, and after killing them he turned to crime!

Mr. Miniature: His parents used actions figures to abuse him, and after killing them he turned to crime! Also a pedophile.

I call it the Johns method.

[the4thpip]

But how do you explain Eraser's ability to smell out Batman's secret ID?

[Rafa-Rivas-2099]

NO, NO, NO!

Make him like that guy in Eraserhead.

Not a bad idea. I don't know his race under that helemet, so, if he's white, he could have a casual Kramer kind of look, if black he could have a Nefertiti hair top. I coul see him making a great Pulp Fiction (the Wolf) type of cameo, cleaning some mess for the Penguin of Rupert Thorne.

Thought of a better idea for Cavalier:

He's a David Niven type of thief. He has the same hair style, same beard style, same body, still a formidable swordsman and he's still a thief. Its the costume that is holding him. Have him wearing tight black thief clothes, no cape, this type of mask (what's it called, again?):

or maybe a domino (he shouldn't be too attached to a costume), and some moderated Musketeer nod. He's English (or French?) and lives and looks like some gigolo on his free time. He prefers to live off of some rich lady's money than spending his stolen wealth. He also seduces to steal (he's rarely emotionally attached). He's quite lyrical in his way of talking, but he sounds charming and stylish instead of like some Elizabethan loon. Why is he in the way of Batman? Haeve you seen Snatch, the Pink Panther, the Maltese Falcon, Ocean's Eleven, etc.? He often steals iteams of interest to the mob, the police and Batman for his own selfish reason. He is only loyal to himself and his word, so he might help Batman as much as he can hurt him with his sword. He's no murderer (can't do the time).

And again Killer Moth:

He's an Anti-Batman. A silent badas (he rarely speaks). He has wrath's m.o., only colder, without emotion, a mercenary with a Batman type of arsenal (only he isn't afraid of guns or killing). The Mob calls him to even things up or for special tasks. Same helmet but metallic, his costume is mostly shades of gray and black. His cape is black and similar to Batman's only no bat-tips and it's split in two like a moth's wings.

Now, I'd love to see the classic, Moth-cavalier team-up like that. They have very different personalities, one is chatty and laid back while the other is too professional, yet since they are both efficient, they respect each other and kinda become buds. Moth would take Cavalier's humor the same way Batman takes Robin's or Catwoman's. Cavalier doesn't kill, but I think he woulnt really care if Moth has to shoot some one, he'd rather say "Aw! Did you really had to do that?" or "well, easy comes easy goes". It would be abit like the Trickster and the Pied Piper were uffed together.

The Puzzler is only associated with the Riddler because of the 60s Batman show, but actually, he is not a costumed villain and his m.o. is protection racket. I'd drop the racket thing to make him the go-to guy to trap metahumans.

The Penguin should be like the Kingpin in terms of power; however, he shouln't lose his legendary short temper and loud, histrionic personality. You can appreciate the change in BTAS. When he looked like DeVito, he stole scenes by being bigger than life and using every situation as a rollercoaster against Batman (blind, unconscious, car trouble, exposed by Strange), when he got the golden age look, he became a coward in order to avoid exposing himself. Although his early episodes sucked, in The Batman, he was also a scene stealer, but the biggest succes was Burgess Meredith, whose popularity made the Penguin appear even more than the Joker in the 60s series.

Not bad with the traps for Puzzler.

That must be sarcasm.

Or he could be used as a lame super villain similar to Condiment King.

My god is this whole forum against philosophic comments? "There are no bad characters, just bad writers." "There are no dumb opinions, just people with different receptions."

There is no Dana, only Zuul.

[FirestormTheNuclearMan]

There are bad characters.

Calender Man You can take switch costumes but he's still a dud, and Deadshot could easily kill him.

Well Deadshot could probably kill Batman as well. That doesn't make Batman a bad character.

[FirestormTheNuclearMan]

I am talking about how much of a embarassment Calender Man is. He joined a super villain group created by the Killer Moth. Deadshot could kill Batman but it wouldn't be easily whie it would be if he decided to kill Calender Man.

Orca She's a poorman's Killer Croc, only one that you laugh at.

[FirestormTheNuclearMan]

Calendar Man - That's the one that I would totally reinvent. I'd give him a Jewfro, drop the costume (just average clothes) and make him exactly like the Scorpio Killer from Dirty Harry. Perfect for a graphic novel. He doesn't speak. We get to see a lot of scenes in which his we don't really see his face and he's setting himself to shoot someone. No dialog or thoughts, just the lyrics of he music he's hearing with his big headphones. Probably Zeppelin. Either that or just go with Calendar Girl.

Was Calender Girl invented only for a Batman cartoon?
