The DCU Batman’s rogues gallery has the potential to challenge the Caped Crusader in a multitude of ways that have never been properly adapted on the big screen. From metahuman threats like Clayface to highly intelligent minds like the Riddler, having variety in Batman’s villain roster only better demonstrates his competency as a crimefighter and why he’s an important part of James Gunn’s DCU. Dealing with threats like Poison Ivy, Doctor Phosphorus, Bane, Killer Croc, and others would make this new Batman accustomed to superpowered individuals, preparing him to eventually team up with Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash, and the rest of the Justice League. That raises the question of how iconic figures like Harley Quinn and the Joker will be handled, more specifically whether Margot Robbie from the DCEU and The Suicide Squad will return. Another noteworthy aspect of this iteration is that he will have a fully formed Bat-Family, presumably including members like Nightwing, Red Hood, and Batgirl, to name a few. They are set to appear in The Brave and the Bold, which will introduce Damian Wayne, Ra’s al Ghul, Talia, and the League of Assassins.
