Convergencealso introduces Victorian - style   villains   who Batman is most frequently   associated with , despite their deficiency of presence inBatman : Gotham by Gaslight . They are being controlled by Mr. Atom , who comes from Earth - S , the world of Shazam and the Marvel Family . While it does n’t take long to remove them as a threat , a few of their outfits are rather noteworthy .

Clayface , Poison Ivy , Harley Quinn , Joker , Penguin , Two - Face , Mr. Freeze , the Riddler , Man - Bat , and Scarecrow are all let in in this nefarious short letter - up . Poison Ivy get a revamped hairdo with a gorgeous courtship . Clayface mostly remains the same , but he make a tattered top and hat go the epoch . Harley maintains her Graeco-Roman coloration scheme , though this jester getup offer a new cut from her usual one . rather of being a full bodysuit , it boast baseball glove andleaves Harley ’s upper weaponry bare , though she still has a jester cap and pound . Joker ’s appearance is one of the crowing modification . He gets a new coat that is darker in color than his usual suit . His hair is also forgetful , though his pallid face remains the same . The Penguin remains in   his signature tux , though he has a span of grown - out sideburns . Two - Face is mostly the same as well , asunder from   the patchwork half - suit he wears .

Additionally , Mr. Freeze undergo a handsome change , wearing what looks like a plunger ’s courting . The Riddler appears the same with only modest   geological period adaption to his dress . Man - Bat , similar to Clayface , rest the same as well . Scarecrow add together a mantle to his ensemble , and   has a timeless spirit , think his   themed and matching garb . Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn are definite stick - outs among this chemical group , as well as Mr. Freeze . This is n’t Joker ’s wildest rig , but it is certainly more subdued ,   despite it   making him no less placeable . These are greatcostumesfor Gotham ’s rogues , as they are easily identifiable while representing the Victorian epoch . On top of their new suits , their weapon   also reflect the time catamenia . Batman’srogues picture gallery is implausibly adaptable , induce it a shame these alternate adaptation have n’t had more appearances .
