Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League might have killed whatever hoped you had from the Arkham universe, but that doesn’t stop gamers from talking about some of the best characters they’ve crossed paths with in the last many years.
One of them is Killer Croc, a victim of unfortunate circumstances who found his home in Gotham’s sewers. We first encounter him in Arkham Asylum, where makes an appearance as a side villain trying to make things tough for the protagonist.
Fans talk about Killer Crocs’ many appearances in the Arkham games
Despite some of the many beloved villains like Joker and Brainiac paving a path into Kill the Justice League, the game failed to truly make its home in players’ heart. This has been due to multiple issues, but fans still hope that there will be more interesting characters added in the future.
One of which is Killer Croc, a massive ‘bad guy‘ with alligator-esque features. Fans remember the many designs and shapes he took the form of across the three Arkham games. We first encounter him in Arkham Asylum, where he’s being escorted by the staff of the mental hospital.
Killer Croc’s shock collar plays an integral part throughout the entire game, and players have to cleverly use Batarangs to fight him. Even with his menacing look and ill intentions, Killer Croc has built quite a reputation over the years as one of the coolest villains in the series.
Could Suicide Squad ever do justice to Killer Croc’s appearance?
Given how comical and interesting personalities can get in the latest game, it won’t be a surprise to see the re-entry of Killer Croc. In fact, the response to the post has been generating so much anticipation for the character, that the devs might just consider adding him back to the Arkhamverse, hoping to make the overall experience better.
One of the comments by Jeremy Jonas states how Killer Croc has been best represented in the games:
Origins isn’t my favorite game of the series, but the Croc design is awesome. And was sorely underutilized. Gotta say, I really like Killer Croc in the Arkhamverse (and well… in general).
With Kill the Justice League, we can hope for the devs to utilize Killer Croc’s story better. Originally, Waylon Jones (Killer Croc’s real name) had an extremely rough childhood and was a victim of abuse. Considering his genetic defects and the usual mockery of the way he looked, Waylon grew into a murderous psychopath and even worked as an entertainer at a carnival for some time.
All of these little-too-big stories can be further utilized to give Killer Croc the gameplay he deserves. Do you think he would make for an exciting re-entry? Let us know in the comments below.
