Gotham: 10 Things We Learned From The New Trailer

By Thomas Blakey /

8. Ladies And Gentlemen, Harvey Bullock!

Gordon and Bruce aside, Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue) receives the most screen time during the trailer as Gordon€™s new partner. This will be the first time Bullock is depicted in a live action sense (finally), introducing the character to Batman fans who don€™t read the comics. In those comics, Harvey Bullock is a constantly changing character. He originally starts off as a corrupt cop tasked with sabotaging Gordon€™s attempts to clean up the department. He was most prominent in Batman: The Animated Series, where he played a tough, reckless but clean cop who openly disagreed with Gordon€™s partnership with Batman. After this adaption, Bullock became more well known and made more frequent appearances in the comics, but without his villainous tendencies. Bullock comes across as a decent cop, hard as nails, but with a mean streak and a determination to deal with criminals at any cost. Gordon is new to Gotham and its ways, and Bullock is preparing him to take on its worst criminals. Bullock tells Gordon €œthe city isn€™t for nice guys€ and it seems that Bullock has his own, not always orthodox ways of dealing with criminals.
