Robin

Jim Gordon has devoted his entire life to serving and protecting the people of Gotham City. Starting as a simple beat cop, he worked his way up to detective, and finally to Commissioner of the Gotham City Police Department. After a long and celebrated career of cooperation with the city’s top Super Hero, Jim is finally ready to retire and go on a South African jungle safari but he feels confident in leaving the job in his daughter’s capable hands. Bat-Fact: Has had the same mustache since childhood.

Hawkgirl’s awesome ability to fly comes from Nth metal, a mystical and otherworldly material that defies gravity and lets this Justice League heroine soar on her bird-like wings. She’s ferocious in battle, swooping in to defeat villains and then carrying them off to prison. As a member of the Justice League, she fearlessly patrols the sky in search of trouble, though she does have to watch out for flocks of passing geese. Bat-Fact: Hawkgirl is the reincarnation of an ancient Egyptian princess. Or maybe she’s an alien space-cop. I can’t keep track of all of these origins.

Selina Kyle uses her stealth, whip and acrobatic cat-burglar skills to commit purr-fect crimes as the super-villainess Catwoman™, robbing Gotham City’s museums and high-rises of their rarest and most valuable treasures. Cross her path and it’ll mean bad luck for you – unless you’re Batman, whose heroic heart this felonious feline would love to steal. Bat-Fact: Not really much of a dog person.

Kite Man calls himself the master of kites. He wears a picture of a kite on his costume, uses kites for all of his super-villain tools and weapons, and even flies with the help of a giant kite when committing minor robberies and being a general nuisance. Although he’s surprisingly nimble in the air, it’s usually pretty easy to defeat him by just poking a hole in his kite. Bat-Fact: Once beat Batman. Batman doesn’t like to talk about it.

A cryogenic experiment gone wrong permanently lowered Dr. Victor Fries’s body temperature, turning him into the sub-zero super-villain Mr. Freeze. Forced to wear a special suit to survive, the cold-hearted and nearly emotionless crook uses his scientific skills and freeze gun to bring a chill to Gotham City wherever he goes. Good thing Batman is always there to bring the heat! Bat-Fact: Originally called himself “Mr. Zero,” but thought it didn’t sound cool enough.

Night-stalking crime-fighting vigilante. A heavy metal rapping machine. Super Hero. Master Builder. Batman is all of those and so much more. Equipped with a utility belt packed with Batarangs, grappling-guns and other inventions, and backed up by a Batcave full of cutting-edge vehicles and batsuits, Batman has sworn to forever defend the citizens of Gotham City against crooks and super-villains. Batman ALWAYS works alone. He’s also got a really sweet music career going, thanks for asking. Bat-Fact: Batman thinks his roommate, Bruce Wayne, is a super-cool guy.

Well-meaning zoologist Dr. Kirk Langstrom was trying to cure deafness when he gave himself an injection of bat DNA. Instead, the experimental serum transformed him into a creature that was half-bat and half-minifigure, giving him wings and extra strength, but the mind and instincts of a wild animal. When on the loose, he can still be a real pest to Batman and the citizens of Gotham City. Bat-Fact: Batman has some concerns about brand-name confusion.

Mirthful, mischievous and just a little bit malevolent, Harley Quinn is The Joker’s number one sidekick/hench-person/fan. She’s endlessly loyal to her beloved Puddin’, making her the only one in all of Gotham City that he can fully count on to help with his sinisterly silly schemes. And if Harley can cause enough of a distraction for Batman that The Joker can get away? That’s all the better! Bat-Fact: Named MVP of her one-woman roller derby team.

Strong, tough and stubborn, the Mutant Leader’s biggest “power” may be his general thick-headedness and inability to never back down from a fight. As the undisputed leader of the street gang known as the Mutants, he’s used to using shouting to get his way, and if that fails, then he’s happy to use his fists instead. The claims that he comes from a retro-futuristic alternate timeline are probably just rumors. Bat-Fact: Not sure if he’s actually a mutant, or just dresses weird.

Although she’s new to being a Super Hero, Batgirl is every bit Batman’s equal as a crime-fighter. They may disagree about the rules and methods, but Barbara Gordon’s experience as a police officer and her desire to protect Gotham City make her the perfect partner when things get tough and villains are on the rise. She might even have a few things to teach the Dark Knight about busting bad guys! Bat-Fact: Has been known to take out the villains before Batman can even park the Batmobile.

Billionaire businessman Oliver Queen has seen his fortunes rise and fall, but he has always been devoted to helping those who can’t help themselves. An expert marksman, he joins the Justice League on their missions and also protects the citizens of Star City using his famous bow and quiver full of trick arrows equipped with special crime-fighting gimmicks like punching gloves, nets, sticky glue, and much more. As a fellow super-rich Super Hero vigilante without actual super powers, he has a mostly-friendly rivalry with Batman. Mostly. Bat-Fact: Heh, I just got it. He’s dressed up like Robin Hood. That’s clever.
