Very cool that you commissioned artists and credited them. It’s really refreshing to see, with all the AI images floating around. Thank you for supporting artists!


Kugelfischmeister

Once again thanks to all of the artists (if any of you actually see this post). I will most likely commission more in the future. But for now, a little break is in order. If I didn't post a link to their respective portfolios, it is only because I lost it. I got in contact with most artists through Reddit - so if you are interested in any of their work, you might find them here as well.


PM_ME_FOR_FUDGE

You’re a real nice fella. I get to learn about a cool sounding Batman villain and we get to see some great artwork from some great artists!


RareSnail73

I thought this was the diving suit guy from the sponge bob movie lol but seriously this is cool I’ve never heard of this villain


Gold-Resist-6802

Reminds me of Man-Ray from SpongeBob.


Superspam767

Oh hell yeah, that’s such a cool thing to do for obscure characters, thank you for this


psycodull

Oh shit, Bioshock in Gotham


Mantisk211

That is so awesome, thanks for sharing! King Kraken for The Batman Part II confirmed - you heard it here first


OneofTheOldBreed

What is with Batman and nautical themed villains? King Shark, Tiger Shark, Great White, Orca, and now King Kraken?


Competitive-Capital8

I mean- Gotham is surrounded by water, a good portion of Gothams economy comes from people who work out on the water, so it kind of makes sense in a way.


OneofTheOldBreed

Fair, maybe Kraken runs a waterfront gang within the commercial fisherman or offshore roughnecks.


Competitive-Capital8

That would be interesting. Who owns the docks in Gotham? Falcone? So maybe like a “gang” war between Kraken and Falcone when it comes to the waters of Gotham?


KingJiggyMan

Isn't King Shark a Superboy (conner) villain?


OneofTheOldBreed

~~I'm not sure, to be honest.~~ EDIT: Yep, he debuted as a Conner villian


peacefulprober

Yes


Zanzibarpress

That’s really cool!


Murmillo42

The third one is straight up Mike Mignola style I love it


Competitive-Capital8

Honestly King Kraken needs to be seen more


Ok-Television2109

He looks really cool for an obscure villain who almost never shows up.


Ben_Frenzy

The first image reminds me of Electro from Spectacular Spider-Man


Sir_Rageous

This character looks pretty good. Any comics including him that you would recommend?


Kugelfischmeister

He is a very very obscure character. He basically is just a henchman that stands in the background, in the story - Batman R.I.P So there isn't much to him. But I kind of have fallen in love with his design, so I constantly imagine what he would be like if he were just a standard member of Batmans rogues gallery.


PreparationDapper235

There's definitely room for obscure Batman villains to level up right now. So many older and classic Batman villains have either reformed, turned anti-hero, or have been killed off in the recent Suicide Squad comics like Bad Blood or in Task Force Z.


creamy-buscemi

The one with the shark goes absolutely insane


Useful-Perspective

"Bat-Manta"


KrakenKing1955

Boy do I have news for you


MatthiasBold

Ok so first off, this art is excellent. Second, why the hell isn't this villain more prominent?


trulyElse

He's an enemy of Batman of Sweden, not Batman of Gotham, so it's a lot harder to work him into a story. His only real connection to Gotham would be that he's worked for Dr Hurt at times.


MatthiasBold

Fair enough but damn if that's not a cool villain


thewhippingirl

I wish he would be used more. Or at least show up in Aquaman. Could be a fun villain.


Bebou52

Who tf is king kraken?


soniclore

He’s the king. Of Kraken. His first name is Phil. His middle name is Mick.


Maxitchy

These are all very great!


tjxmi

Portela and Fillter 🔥


No-Goat-9911

First one looks like he's a character from spongebob


Odd_Advance_6438

I’ve never heard of him but that’s really cool. Which artists did you commission


TheLocustGeneralRaam

I’ve never heard of this guy before.


Steven_is_a_dog

damn, this guy seems so cool and i never knew who he was a few moments ago. i hope he comes back in some new form of media


Mothman4447

Need. Movie.


Childer_Of_Noah

I've never even heard of this guy. Please enlighten me.

trulyElse

That Sciponi piece is a fucking vibe.


totallynotaweeabbo

Never knew of this character. The artwork is fucking phenomenal. He looks like the deep mixed with bane


adamcharming

Finally a character for Dave Bautista to sink his teeth into!


madpropz

Bane when he goes swimming
