Batman Arkham Knight: 10 Characters Who Could Be The Arkham Knight

8. Richard Dragon

Or you could take it in a completely new direction, and Rocksteady could be drawing inspiration from the Christopher Nolan trilogy of films. In Batman Begins (and sort of in The Dark Knight Rises), our hero's main enemy is Ra's al Ghul, the very man who trained Bruce Wayne in the ways of kicking tail. Who could be a more formidable opponent? Well, Richard Dragon could be. In the comics it's Dragon who taught Batman all his kung-fu know how, along with some extended members of the Bat Family and Green Arrow. It'd be a pretty neat twist that the man who helped make these guys superheroic was suddenly turning on them, but would require a fair bit of set up in Arkham Knight, since he's yet to appear in the game series. Plus, if your name was already Richard Dragon, why would you adopt a name like Arkham Knight...?
