Gotham: 10 Best Batman Villains Not Yet Used On The Show
The villains Gotham deserves and the ones that it needs right now.
There is an old adage that a hero is only as good as its villains. That's precisely why Batman and his Gotham City rogues' gallery have resonated so strongly for over 75 years. His vault of villains reads like a pantheon of twisted, humorous, horrifying and broken baddies.
And already Gotham, which is currently in its third season on FOX, has already made great use of this cache of villains. Almost every week another famous antagonist seems to pop up to harass Ben McKenzie's Jim Gordon and the rest of the GCPD, but they need more if they are to extend the show further.
But with such an aggressive use of the Batman canon over the past three years, one does occasionally wonder who else the show can introduce. And here's where they can go next...
10. Deadshot (Floyd Lawton)
Floyd Lawton isn't a character seen as synonymous with Batman, at least not as much as iconic villains like The Joker, The Penguin, Catwoman or Mr. Freeze. That said, he is still one of the Bat's more memorable foes, with his immediately iconic sleek suit and ultra-cool wrist-mounted guns.
He is also incredibly formidable, endowed with almost superhuman markmanship abilities, and he represents a wholly new type of villain for the show.
There is no doubt that he would keep the Gotham Police Department on their collective toes and act as the foundation for an excellent episode, as they stalk him, serial killer proceedural style across the city and through multiple targets.
