The next villain the Dark Knight has to contend with has been revealed and it is none other than Uma herself: Poison Ivy. And she’s brought with her a plant of Audrey 2 proportions. Lucky for her the asylum has a big enough greenhouse. To be honest I was never that crazy about the character but as a fan of hot green ladies with red hair I can’t help but approve.

Something I can’t help wondering about Arkham is the caliber of the orderlies and guards that they employ. First of all, you have to be pretty emotionally put together to work in a place with so many dangerous psychos. I’m not talking your run of the mill One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest patients here. Although one of those mother fuckers has a really familiar grin. Secondly, what happens when there’s a problem and Batman’s not around? I don’t know about you (whoever you are) but to me, getting stomped by Croc ain’t worth a security guards wages.

In any event, as the (eventual) release of this game approaches I find myself more and more excited about the prospect of slapping super-villains around. This game is looking like the game us Batman fans have been hoping for for a long time. Check out the trailer and try not to look at your calendar. You can check her, er, the trailer out here.
