Gotham TV Show: 10 Characters Who Must Appear

4. Clark Kent

This one, however, probably would feel a little shoehorned, but we just can't resist. It's a dream of comic book fans everywhere to see Batman and Superman finally meet on-screen in the upcoming Batman v Superman, but what about if they ever met as kids? It's not inconceivable to consider that Bruce could be travelling through Smallville at some point, or something might cause the Kents to take a trip to Gotham City for the weekend, craphole though it is. Yeah, we'll probably go with the first option actually. How Likely Is It? 3/10. We can't entirely write this one off, because the temptation will surely be massive to do some sort of tie-in ahead of Batman v Superman, but there's a good chance that without some strong restraint, it would come off as ham-fisted and heavily contrived. After all, under what circumstances would these two very different individuals come across each other as kids and, more to the point, stop for a chat? If the writers can do it in a way that's at once creative, entertaining and still believable, though, then we're all for it.
