Batman: Arkham Origins - Part 4

[AnneFan]

Via the Arkham twitter page - they just revealed Electrocutioner as a character they've brought to the series as an assassin, voiced by Steve Blum.

Truly expected, given the shock gloves Batman will acquire.

 

[The Caped Knight]

who is Electrocutioner?

 

[Two-Face=Badass]

Skipping out on Babs' character development in being Batgirl just to make her a casualty for the Bat/Gordon relationship would certainly be a new level in fridging.

 

[Nathan]

Nice, he was one of those obscure characters that made it into JLU.

 

[Two-Face=Badass]

Wow, even I didn't know the Electrocutioner. And I know everyone in the DCU.

 

[BrollySupersj]

I was hoping for Lady Shiva, but it's OK.

 

[Jick]

So, he's the new assassin?
Ok. At least it's someone new.

 

[AndrewGilkison]

They kept referencing The Killing Joke just now, and Troy Baker's Joker apparently has a very similar monologue in the game's script...

The Dark Knight was very Killing Joke inspired and it didn't have Barbra Gordon crippled (although Batman's love interest gets blown up real good).

 

[Nathan]

Looking forward to see his design. They made Cobberhead look pretty boss.

Women have it so good in Batman media. Poor Cass...

I'm guessing we unlock the shock gloves after defeating the Electrocutioner in a boss battle?

Huh, Magpie's in the mobile trailer.

 

[Nathan]

TERRY MCGINNIS!

 

[Nathan]

Huh, Magpie's in the mobile trailer.

If that's Magpie, then they were lazy. She moves exactly like Copperhead.

Would seem very likely. Batman has adapted stuff in the field in previous games, eg. modifying his sequencer and equipping his REC. I'd love to use these gloves on those electro stick wielding thugs from AA/AC- give them their own medicine!

 

[BrollySupersj]

Huh, Magpie's in the mobile trailer.

You sure that wasn't Copperhead?

 

[Two-Face=Badass]

If that's Magpie, then they were lazy. She moves exactly like Copperhead.

Well, it is a mobile game. I'm more interested in the possibility that that means she is in the actual game.

The use of the 'Thieving Magpie' as a piece of music lends credence to it, but that piece is also a pretty standard classical piece in media as well.

 

[AnneFan]

Electrocutioner's boss fight will also likely be similar to those electric stick guys. Jump behind and fight him that way. Rinse, repeat.

 

[Nathan]

I'm sure there will be more. Each boss fight is supposed to have several stages after all.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

Ahh... Terry McGinnis is in the game AND he actually looks like he does in the cartoon.

Between this and the new Bruce Timm-produced DC Nation shorts... it's a very cool time to be a Batman Beyond fan.

 

[Nathan]

I'm just so freaking happy.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

They need to do a B:TAS skin just like that.

Electrocutioner huh? Don't know too much about him, but I'm glad it's another new character for this series. Here's hoping the last assassin will also be new(if it's not Killer Croc).
