Superman: 10 DC Games Rocksteady Should Make Instead

2. The Question

The Question is the best comic book character you've probably never heard of, and that alone should be enough reason for Rocksteady to make him the focus of a new Arkhamverse entry.

A vigilante who could easily make DC millions on the big-screen, Vic Sage was created by renowned creator Steve Ditko in the 1960s. Times would change, and while the character faded into obscurity in the proceeding decades, come the end of the eighties, writer Dennis O'Neil and artist Denys Cowan would reinvent the hero for a whole new generation.

Reimagined as a crusading journalist with a clear drive to learn, Sage became a true icon of DC's street-level heroes, buoyed by encounters with Green Arrow, Batman and of course, Lady Shiva.

Make Sage the star of a L.A. Noire/Arkham style title, complete with all the philosophy of the O'Neil/Cowan comic, and you have a surefire success waiting in the wings.
