Really an overlooked, underrated villain.

codster9 Agreed. I found The Ventriloquist and Scarface interesting from the moment I first read about them. I'm hoping they either appear in a future film or a future Arkham game.

@erenahmed 8 жыл бұрын

+codster9 I've got a feeling this villain may be involved in the Gotham series. They've already included many of the villains in the last season so I don't see why not.
