Line 11:
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Yeah, okay, you all know what's coming. [[Memetic Mutation|HIS PARENTS ARE DEEAAAAAAAD]]!
** But worse, {{spoiler|his parents' murderer was never brought to justice}}.
* [[Rich Idiot With No Day Job]]
* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: With each passing season.
* [[Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys?]]
Line 21:
* [[The Medic]]
* [[Parental Substitute]]
* [[Secret Keeper]]
* [[Servile Snarker]]
 
Line 42:
 
=== Commissioner Jim Gordon ===
* [[The Commissioner Gordon]]: Obviously.
* [[Demoted to Extra]]: [[Word of God]] says that they would've liked to do more with this character but [[Executive Meddling|the network]] had them give him the shaft because they wanted more focus on Barbara.
* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: [http://www.toonzone.net/forums/showpost.php?p=1902711&postcount=58 According to] [[Word of God|Jeff Matsuda]], Gordon was the young officer seen in the flashback in "Traction."
Line 78:
 
=== Clark Kent/Superman ===
* [[The Cape (trope)]]
* [[Clark Kenting]]: Well, [[Trope Namer|duh]].
* [[Flying Brick]]
Line 128:
* [[Ax Crazy]]
* [[Does Not Like Shoes]]
* [[Electric Joy Buzzer]] {{spoiler|Accidentally kills himself with one. [[Not Quite Dead|Well, almost.]] }}
* [[For the Evulz]]
* [[The Hyena]]
Line 153:
* [[Pungeon Master]]
* [[Rich Idiot With No Day Job]]: Well, unless you call a life of crime a job.
* [[Smarter Than You Look]]: He's not as gullible as Catwoman thinks.
 
=== Catwoman ===
Line 172:
* [[Batman Gambit]]: He has set {{spoiler|fake}} bombs all over the city that can only be deactivated by solving various puzzles. {{spoiler|This is actually a diversion so that he can break into the City Hall database undisturbed and steal important information. He almost got away with it too.}}
* [[The Chessmaster]]
* [[Criminal Mind Games]]
* [[Cut Lex Luthor a Check]]: Deconstructed, much like his [[Batman: The Animated Series]] counterpart.
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: He's voiced by [[A Nightmare on Elm Street|Robert Englund]].
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: He looks an awful lot like [[Marilyn Manson]], [[Ink Suit Actor|which makes sense]] [[Justified Trope|because]] [[What Could Have Been|Manson was originally contracted to voice him.]]
* [[Riddle Me This]]: As usual.
* [[Smug Snake]]: He's a great schemer and could have become a [[Magnificent Bastard]], but in each episode he appears in, he ends up [[Villainous Breakdown|throwing a psychotic fit]] when his plans backfire.
Line 185:
* [[She's All Grown Up]]: In her last appearance in ''The Batman Strikes'', her body is drawn in a more adult way, showing that's she finally growing into the full-fledged seductress she's known as in other continuities.
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: Again, made more apparent in ''[[The Batman]] Strikes''.
* [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity]]: Pam wasn't all right in the head as a normal human, but she ''really'' lost it when she became Poison Ivy.
 
=== Hugo Strange ===
Line 200:
 
=== Killer Croc ===
* [[Beast Man]]: Possibly Croc's most beastlike incarnation to date. Thankfully, the writers didn't claim that he had a "skin condition" this time.
* [[Genius Bruiser]]: Especially when compared with his [[Dumb Muscle]] portrayal in ''[[Batman: The Animated Series]]''.
* [[Multiple Choice Past]]: We don't know whether he's a military genetic experiment gone awry, he deals with the wrong kind of voodoo magic in the swamps, or if he's simply a circus freak.
** If the tie-in comic, ''The Batman Strikes'' counts as [[All in The Manual]], then according to issue 25, he was both a military genetic experiment subject before escaping, then was part of a circus freakshow before escaping that and ultimately coming to Gotham, though it's still unknown if he was born like that as in the comics or if being part an experiment is the reason for his appearance.
Line 225:
* [[Destined Bystander]]: {{spoiler|Ethan Bennett was a cop and a friend of Bruce's who appeared throughout Season One before becoming Clayface.}}
* [[Dishing Out Dirt]]
* [[Driven to Villainy]]: He got better.
* [[Enemy Mine]]: He tries to help Batman take down the Joker when he resurfaces, but Batman won't let him out of concern for his mental health. When the second Clayface appears, Batman and Robin willingly let him help them take the new guy down.
* [[Fallen Hero]]
Line 274:
* [[Didn't See That Coming]]: How a lot of his plans fall apart.
* [[Evilly Affable]]
* [[Evil Plan]]: As a villain, he plots a few.
* [[Hannibal Lecture]]: Tries it on Robin and Batgirl.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]
Line 287:
* [[Diabolical Mastermind]]
* [[Fantastic Racism]]: Similar to other recent incarnations of Luthor, this version has a hatred of aliens.
* [[Kneel Before Zod]]: Forces a mind-controlled Superman to bow to him.
