Batman sure didn't get many of the good villains in his early days. Dangerous though they may have been, even planting bombs around Gotham City isn't a guarantee of a memorable tenure under the Dark Knight's radar.

As his name suggests, Anarky, aka Lonnie Machin, tries to make a name for himself as the voice of the people in Arkham Origins. Anti-government, anti-establishment and seemingly anti-everything else, he rallies followers from Gotham's poorest areas for protests, graffitiing and general non-conformist debauchery. You just know his bedroom's full of Nirvana posters.

But he doesn't stop there, no. Anarky is totally prepared to resort to terrorism in order to make himself heard. And that's when he gets Batman's attention.

Machin lures Batman to the Solomon Wayne courthouse, where, predictably, his ego takes quite a literal beatdown. He's then revealed to just be a teenager, which somehow makes us take him even less seriously. It's doubtful his lackeys would've stuck around if they knew their leader was nothing more than a pent-up kid in an unflattering jacket.
