Description I’ve wanted to draw a card game with Batman villains since my favorite Batman: The Animated Series episode is Almost Got ‘Em. In the episode the Joker runs a card game with his fellow rouges and they compare stories on how each of them almost killed the Batman.

I did my own version of it where all my favorite Batman villains are at the same table. And before you ask, yes there are card games that 12 people can play at the same time so don’t give me any shit about putting too many players at the table.

From left to right: Penguin, Mad Hatter, Two-Face, Catwoman, Clayface, The Joker, Killer Croc, The Riddler, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Mister Freeze and Scarecrow.

Batman, Penguin, Mad Hatter, Two-Face, Catwoman, Clayface, The Joker, Killer Croc, The Riddler, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Mister Freeze and Scarecrow are copyright DC Comics.

MJMJR In reply to Rabbit-England [2012-11-26 23:53:21 +0000 UTC]

hehe awesome

Baby Doll always freaked me out

Mad Love was awesome, I got the comic book adaption of it as well

I always like when they show villains acting normal or doing everyday things when they aren't causing mayhem

Making me feel sad or compassion is a big part in an episode for me baby doll did that

MJMJR In reply to Rabbit-England [2012-11-27 02:01:30 +0000 UTC]

Yeah she was definitely a tragic figure but she still scared me.

I loved Mr Freeze in that series because they made him such a tragic character. The end of his origin episode always breaks my heart.

I failed you. I wish there were another way for me to say it. I cannot. I can only beg your forgiveness, and pray you hear me somehow, someplace... someplace where a warm hand waits for mine.

I know. I loved the episode Showdown that showed Jonah Hex going up against Ra's Al Ghul's son. I loved the ending, "Please detective, let me take my boy home."

Mad as a Hatter also left an impression on me I guess I can relate to some of the villans with the loneliness factor.

And yes I thought the monolouge Mister Freeze gave was..In short beautiful

MJMJR In reply to Rabbit-England [2012-11-27 09:11:34 +0000 UTC]

I know. I was just talking about his episode the other day with my girfriend. I always felt bad for him at the end when he says, "Will you, won't you, will you, won't you... won't you come to the dance?" You just see how far gone the poor guy is from all the rejection and lonlieness he went through.

That show made me a huge fan of Freeze and it made me an even bigger fan of Riddler and Two Face. He's still my all time favorite Bat villian.

The worse part is that He even says that he should just move on but he wont.

Yeah because he's insane, he can't help himself.

I just got the complete The Real Ghostbusters animated series on DVD and it was so much better than I remembered

Thank you I love that episode as well. I just remember hating that guy in charge of the slave camp and how he was constantly eating like a slob.

I think Batman TAS is probably one of the best animated series ever created

I have a feeling that those cards the Mad Hatter is holding aren't normal playing cards.

MJMJR In reply to MissBliss8527 [2012-04-28 08:07:22 +0000 UTC]

They're all normal playing cards. It's the people who are holding them that are abnormal.

Oh, okay. But it would make it so much more fun if they were mind control cards.

It's totally worth it. The 1990s Batman animated series is probably one of the best written cartoons I've ever seen.

It's up to the viewer to decide. It could be Batman or another villain.

herostalker In reply to MJMJR [2012-03-14 18:58:34 +0000 UTC]

i think batman would be a little unwelcome at this gathering
but it could be bane, black mask, calendar man, deadshot, firefly, professor Hugo Strange, prometheus, Ra's al Ghul, red hood, Simon hurt, or the ventriloquist. just gusses from the given visual of their left hand

MJMJR In reply to herostalker [2012-03-15 00:17:20 +0000 UTC]

That's why I left it up to the viewer to decide who it is.

The episode of the original Batman: The Animated Series that I took inspiration from was titled Almost Got 'Em. In that episode the villains have a card game and Batman attends it in disguise as one of them and plays cards. So even though he's unwelcome he could still be a possability as a player. Just one that is in disguise.

Thanks, I thought it suited the scene Freeze isn't drinking anything, that drink is Scarcrow's. He needs a straw because of his mask.
