Line 73:
* [[Thou Shalt Not Kill]]: However rough he is on criminals, Batman would never intentionally kill one of them, {{spoiler|or let the Joker die while it was within his power to save him.}}
{{quote|'''Batman''': (to Ra's al Ghul) I will ''never'' kill. Not even [[Knight Templar|you]].}}
* [[Took a Level Inin Jerkass]]: Arkham City all the way. At times, even allies get shouted at or angrily dismissed. It's implied in-game that a large percentage of his increase of jerkishness was the result of being injected with Joker's blood, not to mention apprehension over it being sent to hospitals in Gotham. {{spoiler|The stress of his imminent death certainly doesn't help matters.}}
* [[Ungrateful Bastard]]: Sort of called out on this by Robin after the latter {{spoiler|saves his life from asphyxiation in "Harley Quinn's Revenge".}}
{{quote|'''Robin''': Ever heard of "thank you"? ... I guess not.}}
Line 106:
* [[Deal with the Devil]]: Joker's interview tapes with Hugo Strange reveal {{spoiler|that he is willing to work with the guy in exchange for making his last days of his life "more comfortable."}}
* {{spoiler|[[Death by Irony]]: Although he finds it [[Actually Pretty Funny|kinda funny]].}}
* {{spoiler|[[Distressed Dude in Distress]]}}: {{spoiler|The aforementioned run-in with the guard and his crew. He's only rescued [[Just in Time|at the very last second]] by an [[Dressing as the Enemy|incognito]] Harley Quinn}}.
* [[Electric Joy Buzzer]]: One of his take downs.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: Well, it's closer to "Even Insanity Has Standards", but shortly after he released the Arkham lunatics, he gives various (serious) messages to his inmates to put down the lunatics if they ever encounter them laced into his (otherwise) [[Trolling]] messages, and the exchange between Harley and Joker suggests that he only did so as a last resort to stop Batman and not as part of his original plans, which gives the heavy implication that even the Joker, someone who definitely isn't a shining example of sanity, was horrified with the nature of their insanity.
Line 312:
* [[Violently Protective Girlfriend]]
* [[Woman Scorned]]: She's back in "Harley's Revenge," and she's definitely not fooling around this time around.
* [[Zero-Percent0% Approval Rating]]: None of the Joker's Mooks are happy that she has taken over. {{spoiler|Once Joker dies, they say she has become [[Beyond the Impossible|even crazier than he was]].}}
 
==== Killer Croc/Waylon Jones ====
Line 903:
* [[Demoted to Extra]]: In the second game. Though considering he was basically a hostage for the entirety of the first game, he probably isn't complaining.
** He gets slightly more involvement in "Harley Quinn's Revenge", though. Just a few lines in a conversation with Batman, some other chatter on the radio and off, and a conversation at the end, but more than in the game proper.
* [[Distressed Dude in Distress]]: He gets kidnapped by Harley, then later the Joker to "referee" the [[Final Boss]] [[Boss Battle]] of the first game.
** [[Badass in Distress]]
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Despite [[Tom Kane]] returning for Sharp in ''Arkham City'', Gordon was voiced by [[David Kaye]].
Line 942:
 
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: The comic-book Vale is traditionally a redhead. This version of her is blond, somewhat like [[Batman (film)|Kim Basinger]].
* [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]]: In one of the side missions, Batman has to rescue her.
* [[Hot Scoop]]
* [[Intrepid Reporter]]
