OOOOO they implemented the glove from Arkham Universe. Hated the nolan interpretation. Just some guy in a mask and a suit and we barely ever saw him live up to his villianous role.

the glove from Arkham Universe.

You mean the Freddy Kruger glove?

Interesting indeed!

Esquire magazine: "What could this mask that looks like a scarecrow mean? A brand new villain in Gotham City?"

They could have been relics from another patient Rush kept. The whole Bliss drug angle of the show did make me think it would lead to Scarecrow. Still could I suppose. Wish they had just committed to Scarecrow rather than maybe Rush being Scarecrow or Hugo Strange or Calendar Man or whoever they intended for him to be. Not being someone would feel a waste when there are so many DC characters they could utilize.

Yeah I saw that - wondering why they would backtrack after putting in such obvious clues

Or are they just trying to throw us off the trail? Also I’m not a fan of changing all the names around

You mean the Freddy Kruger glove?

Yup. Pretty damn cool

They went out with a bang all right, and IMO dethroned Netflix DD as the best comic book series ever.

I loved this show, but I'm not sure I would even categorize it as a comic book series. It's seems almost too grounded to qualify, plus maybe I'm forgetting something but I can't think of a single fantastical element typical of a comic book movie or series that took place.
