Batman: No Man's Land: Batman: Harley Quinn (Story #22)
Continuing on in No Man's Land with the other character find of 1999: Harley Quinn! Yup, we this is how DCAU Harley Quinn was turned into the long running we love today.
This comic opens on everyone's favorite love interest to Harley: Poison Ivy! The plant villainess is leaving food for the citizens of Gotham, when she comes across the remains of rockets. And somehow Harley Quinn is in the rocket.
When Ivy brings the world's greatest clown girl in for medical treatment, Harley decides to tell us what she has been doing. Harley (back when she was Harleen) interned at Arkham Asylum. While working she fell in love with the Joker when she was supposed to treat him. When Harley was caught letting the Joker free, she was forcibly committed into Arkham.
That is where she stayed until the earthquake hit Gotham. When Harley went out in the world, she discovered evidence that Joker was still out there, and she decided to go full supervillain to be by his side. And the moment of her trying on costumes before she picks the classic costume, is just perfect little moment. One of many that Paul Dini and Yvel Guichet give the audience in this issue.
Harley catches up to the Joker as he is threatening Penguin for supplies. And Harley's gymnastic skills come in handy, allowing for Penguin's henchman to be killed. Joker recognizing her past identity and figuring that she might be useful, allows Harley to stay.
We cut to Harley doing some grunt work (finding a lair for Joker's crew, fighting opposing gangs, and eventually fighting Batman allowing Joker to escape) to gain Joker's favor. Eventually, Harley gets to spend a night with the Joker that she can't remember (Ivy assumes Harley was drugged).
When Harley wakes up, she cannot find the Joker but does get a message...to meet him on the amusement park's rocket ride. Cut to Harley getting launched off because Joker hates that he feels some romantic feeling for Harley, because it makes him boring. Harley manages to steer the rocket into Ivy's territory, and we cut back to where our story started.
Ivy feels some pity towards Harley, and gives her potion that will increase Harley's reaction, strength, and immunity to poisons. Ivy then recommends that Harley go attack Batman and Joker... out of spite that both feel towards the duo.
Cut to Harley (with great humor) making a makeshift Bat-Signal for Batman. Bats tried to talk Harley away from the Joker, but she tells Batman that Joker has a plan to kill the aid workers of Gotham in one big explosive trap.
The comic then cuts to one of the best Joker moments: Joker trying to make conversation with his henchmen about the women in their lives. Once one of them actually starts conversing with Joker about the lady he loves, Joker just kills the man... because Joker always has to be the center of attention.
Harley and Batman sneak into the lair. Batman deals with henchman while Harley confronts the Joker. The Clown Prince of Crime tries to use Joker Venom to kill Harley, but thanks to Ivy's formula, she lives. Cut to Harley beating up the Joker.
Batman tries to intervene (he thinks that Joker plans to kill all the medical worker, but doesn't know that was a Harley lie), but Harley whacks Batman over the head with her trademark giant mallet.
Joker tries to escape Harley's wrath, but she catches up to him. But then we see the (early) Harley Quinn character flaw of her going back to the Joker, with him only doing the smallest gesture of kindness. Granted, even Joker seems annoyed by this sequence of events.
Batman wakes up from his head injury and finds that the duo set the hideout to explode. This explosion tells the wider Gotham that the Joker is back... and he is done giving out jellybeans. The comic ends with Batman complaining to Alfred that he has to now deal with two crazy clowns!
Yeah, this comic is amazing! Paul Dini can write the best Joker stories out there, and he writes one here. Just so many little moments that show Joker's vanity. And the art by Yvel Guichet captures the humor from his sick mind.
But this is the intro to Harley Quinn, and it really works. It established the line of her being a foe for both Joker and Batman. Plus, it is nice to have Ivy involved in her life straight from the beginning. And Harley is fun, making you want to see more. Just a classic comic, and I think the best of No Man's Land.
10/10

I love that Poison Ivy is an environmentalist and Selina Kyle canonically supports in women and sex worker’s rights and cat welfare with both money and personal action, but what about the other rogues? Victor Fries donating to hospitals and medical research into terminal illnesses and using his suit technology to make aids for disabled and ill people. Waylon Jones and Oswald Cobblepot protecting children with deformities/disfigurements/etc. from bullies and abusers and visiting them in hospital. Waylon specifically looking out for Gotham’s impoverished Black communities like the one he grew up in (he IS African-American! It’s overshadowed by the crocodile mutation, but still part of his character!), the homeless (this one is canon!), inmates and abused mental patients (he only bit Aaron Cash’s hand off because Cash kept mistreating him). Harley Quinn supporting domestic abuse victims. Kirk Langstrom advocating for deaf people, because in hindsight he shouldn’t have felt like he needed to be hearing so badly that he experimented on himself. Harvey Dent and Two-Face going to war for abused children and people with DID in total agreement.
Rogues with empathy. Does the empathy inspire them to reform? Does it drive them to darker, bloodier depths of vengeful rage than ever? Both are good. I want to see more of the Gotham rogues with empathy!

Wither Heart (Part 1)
read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/5b8yjDC by Nevis_the_skeleton Batman had faced many enemies, not always necessarily reachable, such as the great mafia families of Gotham. Cutting off a head did not mean killing the Hydra. He had also dealt with psychopathic killers, such as Zsasz or Professor Pyg. Lost souls, blinded by rage, like Killer Croc or Poison Ivy. Or even great troublemakers, such as the Joker or the Mad Hatter. Not necessarily evil, but still dangerous for others and themselves. But this was unprecedented, new, and in the worst way. He could only watch helplessly as his friend Harvey was taken into the van that would take him to Arkham. And Batman knew he was not at the end of his troubles, soon encountering others souls, lost and enraged by the world, like Riddler or Scarecrow.

Comics this week ?
Action Comics #1059 - I knew it! I knew it was the Empire of Shadows! God I’m actually excited for Batman to show up in Action, I can’t believe it. Then again this is a very different kind of Batman, and it’s an evil Batman who is being used in service to (hopefully) make Superman look good. What a refreshing concept as opposed to the all too often reverse. Otho being the one Stone targets makes sense, like “Norah” points out, she’s a killer and the youngest daughter of the family. They have some things in common. God I love all the crazy tech that Steel has built over the run. It’s been great to have him be so involved and I’m going to be really disappointed if he gets dropped again with the “Superstars” next year. Shame Sandoval can’t finish this arc but I do enjoy Barrows. Nice little bit of Metropolis history with the street name, PKJ didn’t get to do as much of that as I was hoping for, but anything that plays up Metropolis as a “city of immigrants” suits me. Looks like Constantine and Etrigan will be showing up to help Superman delve into the Dark Multiverse to find Otho. Probably will learn the backstory of this Batman next issue, maybe even learn what happened to that Earth’s Superman too. Can’t wait! The Kenan story came to a satisfying conclusion as well, Yang did a good job within the limited pages he had. Justified why Kenan joined the Superfamily and why he isn’t interacting much with the JLC anymore. Last line paired with that panel shot was a gut punch. Yang set Kenan up for some great drama if anyone bothers to follow up on it which they probably won’t. Maybe I’ll get lucky and Yang will be the fourth writer for the Superstars next year after Aaron, Williamson, and Waid.
Steelworks #6 - Thought it was a solid freshman showing from Dorn. Ending was a bit rushed but there were some nice character moments across this whole mini, even if it’s definitely not an essential read for the line. Walker made for an entertaining bad guy by being so unrepentantly evil, it's nice to have a few of those guys around amidst all the sympathetic bad guys these days. When are we going to actually see JHI and Lana tie the knot? Maybe in Action? Would like to see that actually occur, it's been good for both characters imo.
Detective Comics #1078 - I have not read the Knightfall trilogy so I’ve never been a huge Azrael guy, but damn I actually am becoming a fan. Seeing gleefully charge a werewolf head on does a lot to endear him to me.
The Flash #3 - Love what Deodato is doing with the panels, really helps to sell the disorientation that Wally and Max are going through. Cool revamp of the Folded Man, my Flash knowledge has a bunch of holes in it so I don’t know what his deal has historically been. Good use of him here that makes me want to learn more. Bit nervous about the implication that Speed Force users are screwing up reality every time they use their powers, it reminds me too much of that Venditti plot point from New 52 GL about the Emotional Spectrum “running out”. Obviously they’re not going to stop making Flash stories so either they have to “fix” that if it’s actually the issue, or it’s a misdirect.
City Boy #6 - Good ending. Pak’s got a nuanced character in Kim, he’s so human and fallible that he could easily have ended up a villain as a hero. Seeing him rise above that at the end is inspiring in the way superhero fiction aims to be but usually falls short of. I don’t know if he’ll avoid falling into Limbo, he’s not a natural fit for any team, but I’d like to see both City Boy and Pak get more play at DC.
The Penguin #4 - After this week’s issue of Tec I wasn’t sure how King’s heist story would stack up against V’s - good thing that was a feint! Penguin’s taking a lot of risks here, that whole stunt could easily have ended with him being dead, but at least King showed that Cobblepot was actually nervous and unsure of how things would play out. This could easily be a Penguingod book but it avoids that pitfall.

Episode Reviews - Gotham: Season 2 (1 of 4)
Episode 1: Damned If You Do…
Plot (as adapted from Wikipedia):
Picking up where the last season left off, Bruce and Alfred discover a hidden staircase behind the fireplace of Thomas Wayne’s study. Upon descending the stairs, they discover a locked door with a password pad. Alfred tries to tell Bruce that there must be "millions of possibilities" for the combination, implying that they may never get any further.
One month later, Jim Gordon has been demoted to a uniform cop for the GCPD assigned to traffic duty; Bullock has retired from the force and is working in a bar; Cobblepot is now the boss of organized crime of Gotham City; and Barbara is incarcerated in Arkham Asylum. During a shift, Gordon arrests a man calling himself "Zaardon the Soul Reaper" when he wreaks havoc. Commissioner Loeb fires Gordon for shoving his partner officer for showing up late to work.
In Arkham, Jerome Valeska approaches Barbara, telling her that Richard Sionis can give her anything she wants; initially uninterested, Barbara changes her tune in order to gain access to a phone, which she uses to try and harass Gordon and Dr Leslia Thompkins. Zaardon is transferred to Arkham and a blue gas is emitted from his mouth, knocking everyone in the room unconscious. A woman and her cohorts appear at Arkham, killing the asylum guards and abducting Barbara, Jerome, Sionis, Aaron Helzinger, Robert Greenwood and Arnold Dobkins. The woman, Tabitha, brings them to her brother Theo Galavan. Galavan plans on using them as a group to wreak havoc in Gotham in a yet-unknown plan. Sionis refuses the offer and tries to leave with Barbara, but Tabitha kills him.
Gordon goes to Cobblepot, asking him for help in returning to the GCPD and firing Loeb. Cobblepot agrees in exchange for Gordon collecting a debt from Odgen Barker, who had a $70,000 debt with Falcone but thinks he forfeited it since Falcone retired. Gordon refuses and leaves. Upon reconsidering after a visit to Wayne Manor, Gordon visits Barker. Barker refuses and threatens Gordon with a gun, which prompts Gordon to attack his bodyguards. Gordon takes the money and leaves but is pursued by the bodyguards. He escapes to the parking lot where he is confronted by Barker. Gordon shoots Barker and gives the money to Cobblepot. That night, Cobblepot and Victor Zsasz sneak into Loeb's home and blackmail him. Loeb quits the GCPD and names Sarah Essen the new Commissioner, who in turn reinstates Gordon. Gordon tells Lee about what he did for Cobblepot later.
Bruce decides to create a homemade fertilizer bomb to open the door, initially to Alfred's shock, but he soon decides to aid Bruce to try and keep him safe. The two blow up the door to reveal a study room and a computer. Bruce finds a note where his father tells him that he suspected there was corruption in Wayne Enterprises and how he became paranoid. He also tells him not to search further as the truth found in the computer will change his life, unless Bruce feels a true calling that requires him to forsake happiness for truth.
Review:
It’s taken me a while to sit down and get these episodes reviewed after watching them again, not least among those reasons being the over-repetition of plot points from season 1 in this opening episode. Jim Gordon losing his job and having to go to distasteful lengths to get it back was already done in season 1, so why is it being re-hashed here? Surely the writers could have found another way to remove Loeb without making Jim go through the same cycle he’s been through at least before already. Even as we get some new stuff with the introduction of the Galavan siblings and the Bruce side of things continues to progress, we’re getting repetition to the point of stagnation with Jim Gordon. It makes it seem like the show was suddenly hesitant about doing serialised story-telling and were displaying the lack-lustre memory of episodic television.
Given this, and even factoring in progression for Penguin and, to a lesser degree, Nygma, I think this is far from the best opening to season 2 that we could have had, and as such it’s a long way from any kind of a top score. Indeed, I would give this just 6 out of 10 because I’m just that fed up with the show’s scattershot consistency in this instance.
Episode 2: Knock, Knock
Plot (as adapted from Wikipedia):
Having kidnapped Mayor James and locked him with a metal box from the neck up, Galavan makes him call his secretary and tell her that he ran away with a woman. Meanwhile, on the rooftops of the editorial Gotham Gazette building, Jerome and many other group members kill a number of people and drop them from the rooftop so their corpses can form the word of their group: "Maniax!".
At the GCPD, Commissioner Essen gives orders to arrest the Maniax with Gordon leading the investigation. In Wayne Manor, Bruce decides to turn on the computer so he can know his father's secret. When the computer seems to work, Alfred smashes the computer, claiming that the contents of the computer likely led to his father’s death and he wants Bruce to avoid the same fate. Angered, Bruce fires him.
Tensions begin to arise between Jerome and Robert Greenwood about the leadership of The Maniax. Gordon tries to get Bullock back into the GCPD but his fiancée Scottie is against his wishes as she fears for his life. The Maniax hijack a bus filled with cheerleaders, planning to burn it down. The police arrives and when Jerome escapes, Dobkins turns on the fire but Gordon manages to drive the bus away from the fire. He then arrests Dobkins and upon questioning him about who hired them, Tabitha kills Dobkins with a sniper rifle at distance. Bruce finds Alfred at the train station, telling him he regrets what happened and re-hires him, agreeing to follow Alfred’s instructions in training on the condition that Alfred fix the computer. Alfred then asks Lucius Fox to fix the computer.
At the GCPD, Gordon receives a call from Barbara, who turns out to be in the building. Gordon follows her to an alley but is attacked by Helzinger and is then taunted by Barbara about something happening back at the GCPD. Meanwhile, the Maniax arrive dressed as cops and massacre nearly everyone in the police building. Lee survives by hiding in her lab while Nygma saves Kringle from a gunshot. Jerome begins taunting Essen while tied up, killing Greenwood for stealing his lines.
Gordon returns to the GCPD and discovers the massacre. He then finds Essen bleeding and stays with her when she dies. Bruce visits Gordon at the GCPD, wanting to make sure he's okay. Bullock decides to return to the GCPD despite his fiancée's warning. The episode ends when Gordon and Bullock watch a videotape showing Jerome moments before fleeing the building, stating "they have not seen anything yet".
Review:
Here, we get a much stronger instalment as we let everyone progress down their various narrative paths without any pointless backward steps like we had before. It’s almost perfect, but there are still flaws. First, Bruce firing Alfred; has anyone explained to Bruce that as a child, while he may be able to sack Alfred from being his butler, he has no such authority to do so in regards to Alfred’s legal guardianship. This kind of action works when Bruce is an adult, but as a child, he cannot be left without someone to act as his day-to-day carer, so the whole thing falls flat in the end. Frankly, it’s shocking the writers failed to consider this, and begs questions regarding their own parental fitness if they honestly thought this was an acceptable plot point.
Second, the Maniax group lacks enough in the way of recognisable villains to really getting excited about, which doubtless accounts for why they quickly lose members. Considering the first half of this season is called “Rise of the Villains”, I’m not seeing much of a real rise so far, but hopefully later episodes will compensate for this. Overall, I give this episode 8 out of 10.
Episode 3: The Last Laugh
Plot (as adapted from Wikipedia):
With the GCPD recovering from the massacre and death of Commissioner Sarah Essen, Gordon and Bullock start questioning people on the street for info on Jerome. They decide to go to Jerome's father, Paul Cicero, to see if he knows where his son is. Jerome and Tabitha have already captured Paul in his own apartment, and when Jerome asks for his future, Paul states that he'll be a curse upon Gotham and that his legacy will be death and madness. Jerome kills his dad, and when Gordon and Bullock get there, the same sleeping gas used in the season’s first episode knocks out Bullock and Gordon is kicked in the face by Tabitha, allowing her and Jerome to escape.
Elsewhere, Theo Galavan reveals the next stage of his plan as Barbara makes out with Tabitha. Theo states that his family built Gotham and that he will get revenge on those who stole the credit for doing so. Bruce and Alfred attend the Gotham Children's Hospital Gala and run into Leslie. Having no idea Leslie is in a relationship with Jim, Alfred flirts with her. Bruce later encounters Selina, who claims she is "working”. As part of Theo's plan, Jerome and Barbara disguise themselves and take over the show. Leslie recognizes Barbara when her mask slips off and tries to call Jim, but is kidnapped by one of Theo's henchmen.
When assistant Deputy Mayor Kane is called to the stage, Jerome throws a knife to his chest and reveals himself and Barbara, holding everyone hostage. Theo comes and tries playing hero, demanding that Jerome and Barbara stop, until Barbara pretends to knock him out with a mallet. As Bruce and Selina are about to leave, Bruce tells Selina he misses her, and goes back to save Alfred.
While Jerome is terrifying the hostages, Barbara ties Leslie to a spinning wheel, taunting her about how she and Jim will get back together in a year, and will tell their grandchildren that a "man-eating harpy" almost tore them apart. Leslie kicks Barbara in the crotch, and in retaliation, Barbara tries to stab Leslie, but Jerome stops her.
Jerome threatens to kill Alfred unless Bruce gets on the stage. Unwilling to let his only family die, Bruce gets on the stage, and Jerome holds a knife to his neck until Jim and Alfred start shooting the henchmen. Jerome tries to kill Bruce but Theo regains consciousness and stabs Jerome in the neck, killing him and making Theo look like a hero in front of the camera. Barbara escapes through a trap door on the stage.
Bullock confronts Penguin about the rumours circulating that Jim did a favour for him, but Penguin denies it. Bullock tells the self-proclaimed "King of Gotham" that he still sees Penguin as the umbrella boy he and Jim first met, and threatens to beat him if he goes after Jim again, and he still wants revenge for Fish's death. Alfred tries to flirt with Leslie again only for him to realize that she is with Jim, much to Alfred's disappointment. Alfred then gets annoyed at Bruce, thinking he knew, which Bruce denies.
Back at their hideout, Barbara kisses Theo on the cheek, while Tabitha watches with jealousy. Although Jerome is dead, people are still amazed at his sadistic and clever nature, and it gets to the point where people start committing homicidal acts of their own, proving Cicero's prediction true. The last shot shows Jerome's smiling corpse with the echoing of his laugh in the background.
Review:
As the show hasn’t established any kind of metahuman ability for Jerome and doesn’t give any tech explanation for the final scene of the episode, this is another episode that has to be marked down for writer stupidity. Just because someone is made and has a certain laugh is not going to randomly make a bunch of people who saw them on TV go out and start being just as mad. For all that Jerome is supposed to be a kind of proto-Joker equivalent, this part of the episode just smacks of trying too hard to get that across without working out all the details properly. As such, despite this being an otherwise good episode, I’m marking this one down as 7 out of 10.
Episode 4: Strike Force
Plot (as adapted from Wikipedia):
Nathaniel Barnes, the new captain of the GCPD, arrives with the goal of cleaning up the police department and the city's corruption. With the help of Gordon, whom he makes his new second-in-command, Barnes recruits several aspiring police trainees from the Police Academy in order to form an alpha team strike force to help set his goal into motion.
With Mayor Aubrey James still missing from the public and Deputy Mayor Harrison Kane dead, Councillor Janice Caulfield and teamster boss Randall Hobbs begin to run for office as a new mayor election begins. Theo Galavan kidnaps Cobblepot's mother and blackmails Cobblepot into murdering both of the candidates so that Theo can run for office unchallenged. After Cobblepot kills Janice Caulfield, Randall Hobbs escapes death at the hands of Victor Zsasz with the help of the GCPD strike force.
When Selina Kyle begins looking for Bruce at his prep school, she is warned by Alfred to stay away from Bruce after what she did to Reggie. Shortly afterwards, Bruce meets with Theo to thank him for saving his life. During the meeting, Bruce has an encounter with Theo's niece, Silver St. Cloud, and is informed by Galavan that Cloud will be attending his school. After agreeing to go on a date with Edward Nygma, Kristen Kringle and Nygma bond in a romantic encounter. Gordon attempts to confront Cobblepot about the killings but Cobblepot reminds him of the killing he has done while working for him and drives him away.
As Cobblepot begins to have Butch Gilzean search for the location of his mother, Captain Nathaniel Barnes informs the strike force that Cobblepot will be their next target.
Review:
This episode brings in Michael Chiklis, who I knew of prior to this show mainly as Ben Grimm from Fox’ initial efforts at making Fantastic Four movies. He’s a welcome addition to the cast at this point, as this episode marks a sudden shift in the show’s quality and consistency. Not only do events progress at good pace and with a suitable level of action and drama, but there is also a decided lack of pointless repetition, poor plot points or trying to over-sell any characters. We also get the introduction of Silver St Cloud, one of Bruce’s more notable romantic interests from the comics lore as I understand it. Overall, I’m inclined to impart a score of 9 out of 10 this time.
Episode 5: Scarification
Plot (as adapted from Wikipedia):
Cobblepot and Butch bring a chest to Galavan in his penthouse, revealing a kidnapped Sid Bunderslaw, where Tabitha removes one of his eyes. Cobblepot also attempts to convince Galavan to release his mother, but Galavan refuses, preferring to retain leverage over Cobblepot to keep using him as a tool.
Meanwhile, the GCPD Strike Force, led by Captain Barnes and Gordon, busts one of Cobblepot's money laundering houses, where they're nearly killed by a man with a rocket-propelled grenade. Galavan arrives at the GCPD, where he offers help in cleaning the GCPD's corruption in exchange for support in his candidacy. Gordon gently refuses, claiming the police and politics don't match. Tabitha visits Cobblepot to discuss their next move, which requires hiring arsonists.
Butch contacts Selina, who puts him in contact with a group of arsonists, the Pike Brothers: Joe, Cale and Evan, who are still loyal to Fish Mooney. They visit them, hiring them to work for Galavan and Cobblepot. Selina also discovers they abuse of their supposed sister, Bridgit, a friend from her childhood. Evan goes to a market to buy equipment but the place is raided by the GCPD as he shop-lifts explosives he can’t afford. He tries to escape, climbing a chainlink fence but Gordon stops him. When he tries to reach for his gun, he is gunned down by Gordon, and is also blown up as Gordon’s gunfire ignites the explosives hidden in Evan’s pants. Nygma invites Gordon and Lee for a double date with him and Kringle, although Gordon is hesitant.
After Evan's death, the Pike brothers force Bridgit to take Evan's position, threatening to turn her out of their home. They make Bridgit infiltrate a Wayne Enterprises building where, using Bunderslaw's eye, opens a vault containing an ancient knife. Cobblepot later contacts the owner of an antique shop, Edwige, to tell him the truth about the knife. She reveals that in the 19th century, five families ruled the high council of Gotham: Elliot, Kane, Crown, Dumas and the Waynes. During a party, Caleb Dumas allegedly abused Celestine Wayne. Part of his arm was then cut for punishment by Celestine's brother, Jonathan with the same knife the Pikes have just stolen. The Dumas were then exiled to a religious sect, their properties claimed by the Waynes, erasing them from history and forcing the Dumas family to change their surname to Galavan. Cobblepot then formulates a facade with Butch to fake allegiance with Galavan for thinking Cobblepot is conspiring with him, and to make it work, Cobblepot cuts off Butch's hand.
Gordon and Bullock ambush Bridgit on a would-be robbery, where her brothers abandon her. While she tries to back off, officer Luke Garrett tries to restrain her, but she accidentally burns him down. She escapes with Selina but Officer Garrett later dies from the fire. Galavan again visits the GCPD, where Gordon decides to support on his candidacy. In his penthouse, Galavan is visited by Father Creel, who hands him the knife, claiming his warriors are on the way, and Bruce Wayne will die.
Review:
A decent episode, but once again one that falls short of the greatness it could achieve because it’s not quite delivering on the villain’s front. More specifically, we come to a point in the series where we get to introduce Firefly, only it isn’t the male original from the source material. Instead, we find ourselves starting out with a random new female character starting the mantle. Now normally, creating a new character is something I have no problem with and even encourage, and if the show was doing this for a second Firefly down the line after the original, Garfield Lynns, had been and gone from the show, I’d be cool with it. In that scenario, it could be a simple matter of a mantle hand-down or theft between the original and the new-comer. Instead, the show completely skips over the original, and that’s something I can’t abide. If you have to do that, at least give the new character an identity all her own and save Firefly for when you’ve got someone lined up who can play the Garfield Lynns version.
On the plus side, the developing story around the Galavans does nicely develop in that it starts to bring in the idea of the Order of St Dumas, tying into mid-90’s Batman lore when the comics introduced the original version of Azrael just ahead of the Knightfall arc. I can’t remember how this played out for the remainder of the season, and since the show is pre-Batman, I’m guessing we never get anything more than a nod or two back to the source material, but it’s a nice touch in an episode where the show is messing up another villain. On balance, I give this episode 7 out of 10.
Episode 6: By Fire
Plot (as adapted from Wikipedia):
As part of their plan to get his mother back, Butch tells Theo Galavan that Cobblepot cut off his hand for thinking he betrayed him and offers to work for Galavan. Galavan initially declines, stating that his associates "have both hands". Tabitha agrees to let him join them but Barbara is sceptical, citing when Butch kidnapped her. Finally, Galavan lets Butch be part of his operation. Galavan also threatens to kill a congressman if he doesn't support him in the elections, which ends when the congressman agrees to his terms and his life is spared.
Meanwhile, the strike force, led by Gordon, catch a thug and accuse him of being the arsonist who killed Officer Garrett in the previous episode. Bridgit is having a rough time after having killed the police officer. She lives with Selina, but continues to feel guilty. Selina proposes to get money so she can leave Gotham City, and both of them steal money from a human trafficking slave-ring. During their escape, they're caught on camera, and Gordon recognizes Selina. On their way to the bus station, Bridgit is kidnapped by the Pike brothers. Selina plans on rescuing her but is found by Gordon. Selina gives the information to Gordon, but Gordon states he will take care of the situation.
Bridgit is brought back to the Pike home, where her brothers taunt her fear of fire by threatening her with firecrackers. Tired of their abuse, Bridgit kills them with a flamethrower. While looking for the whereabouts of Cobblepot's mother, Butch is discovered by Galavan and learns that he knows of his and Penguin's ruse. Galavan figures out that Oswald has a mental hold on Butch and tells Tabitha to try to beat it out of him. Selina reunites with Bridgit but realizes she's changed in her attitude and plans on taking down abusive people. Bridgit returns to the slave-ring, where she burns the captors and frees the women.
With a tip from Selina, Gordon, Barnes and the GCPD arrive at the slave-ring. Gordon tries to calm Bridgit, but she fights back. However, she accidentally catches fire while trying to defend herself. In an attempt to co-opt Bruce, Galavan proposes to help clean up the corruption in Wayne Enterprises. Butch appears to escape from the Galavans and tells Cobblepot his mother's whereabouts. Selina appears at Leslie and Gordon's apartment and is heartbroken when Gordon tells her Bridgit won't survive her injuries.
Nygma reveals to Kringle during a visit that he accidentally killed her ex-boyfriend, Dougherty. When she tries to leave and tell someone, he holds her and tries to keep her from screaming, but he unknowingly strangles her, and she dies in his arms, leaving him shouting and crying in grief.
In an underground facility of a division of Wayne Enterprises, Bridgit, still alive, is brought to Indian Hill labs where scientists appear to be experimenting on human beings.
Review:
With this episode, we get what initially appears to be the end of the mis-steps around Firefly, and yet even as the episode ends with indications that she’ll live, it saves us from complete disappointment by shedding the first sliver of light on Indian Hill since it was mentioned in the first season. I’m also not wild about Nygma murdering Kringle, given that despite a penchant for death traps, the Riddler’s never struck me as a truly homicidal kind of character in the Batman lore I’ve read. Personally, I’d rather have seen Nygma try to mentally manipulate Kringle into becoming partner in crime to his emerging Riddler persona, as that would be a little more in keeping with the Riddler as I think of the character. As it is, I give this episode a score of 8 out of 10 and hope for better things in the next round of episodes.
