Which Batman Villain Are You?

3.3K Shares

Batman villains are some of the most perplexing and unique villains of any comic book series. Many would consider Batman to have the greatest set of villains to have to face. The overarching darkness throughout Batman comics makes the story special in its own way. Sure there are many dark comic books out there, but none provides the creativity and deep conflicts that are seen in Batman.

The villains of Batman have different backstories and personalities which shape their overall character. The first villain was the Joker who appeared in Batman #1 in the spring of 1940. We barely understood the Joker until much later in the comic book series.

Many of the atrocities we see in Batman stories are related to each villain's backstory. Two-Face is an example. He is a character who was horrifically scarred from an explosion. For this reason Two-Face is deeply divided in more ways than one.

In this quiz you can find out which of the wondrous Batman villains you are by answering a series of questions. Which of the crazed Batman villain's do you expect to be? The results may shock you.

Question 2

What do you care about the most?

Most villains have an ultimate goal. Villains in the Batman comics can be part of crime for personal gain or for money.

As Alfred once stated, some men don't want anything, “Some men just want to watch the world burn.”

Question 3

Batman has you locked up in Arkham Asylum. How do you escape?

Arkham Asylum houses the most criminally insane patients in Gotham City. Gotham City is extremely corrupt and has dangerous criminals.

Time is running out. What do you do?

Question 5

What is your weakness?

No villain is perfect. Without weaknesses every villain would not be easily defeated. The one aspect, common within all villains of comic books, is that they must be defeated.

If the superhero is powerful enough he will not need to use the villain’s weakness in order to defeat him. Which of these weaknesses is yours?

The villains in Batman stories will commit the most despicable acts. How evil are you?

Question 8

Do you use a serum to boost your strength?

Is your strength dependent on a strength boosting serum? Or are you a villain who is not concerned with strength. You may even be a character who is inhumanly strong by nature.
