Batman: Arkham 2017 - 10 Perfect Ways To Continue The Franchise

4. Give Another Hero A Shot

Can Arkham exist without Batman? Well, yes. The Dark Knight's supporting cast have already illustrated time and time again why they're more complex and captivating than Batman himself, so for that reason alone they're more than deserving of a triple-A release of their own. Nightwing certainly comes to mind as being a hero who could carry his own title, but other DC 'street level' heroes like Huntress, Batwoman and Green Arrow would all be fantastic choices as well. All these characters have shown a presence in the Arkhamverse through direct appearances and countless Easter Eggs. So, for those weary of Batman's smothering presence as DC's favourite son, a change of protagonist may just be the thing the series needs.
Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
