CHARACTER QUOTES – JAMES GORDON
In Batman Arkham Knight the character of James Gordon takes more of a parental role. Whilst in Arkham Asylum he is always the target for kidnapping, and in Arkham City he seems to play an even lesser role, having been forced to remain in the background due to Hugo Strange and his TYGER team.
However, in Arkham Knight Gordon takes a lot of the chaos within the city into his own hands, especially when he realises that his daughter, Barbara (Oracle) did not initially escape the city. As expected. When Scarecrow took charge with his latest fear toxin.
In fact, the reason why she had decided to stay back was because she was working secretly for the Dark Knight himself, over at the Clock Tower. Something that the detective had no idea about. Things take an even more dramatic twist when she is also kidnapped by the Arkham Knight. Who was currently working for the ‘Fear Master’.
When James finds out about the kidnapping he is also alerted about who she was working for. He then becomes furious with the ‘Bat’ and decides to search and rescue her himself. Without the vigilantes help.
Unfortunately, he does not get very far until he is found and kidnapped himself. Thus, his attempts to get his daughter back proved to be a failure. The ‘Knight’ is then required to help.
