Villains: Hazmax & Toxzita (Neil & Rita Stark)
One of the world’s leading experts on chemical experimentation, Professor Neil Stark used to work for the Carlyle Corporation as one of the leading scientists who developed the serum that gives people superpowers. His next project was very ambitious, as he and his wife/lab assistant were trying to develop a serum that could immunize humanity to all diseases. During his experiments, he began to run short of funds, and decided to outsource money from local gangsters, and in return they would be the first to get the serum, as their leader was dying from a terminal illness. His research began to take longer than expected, and the gangsters decided to come to the lab and “motivate” him to work faster, by threatening to maim his wife. In the scuffle, Neil stole one of the goons’ guns, and attempted to protect his wife, but the gangsters retaliated by pouring a beaker full of his serum down his throat before it had been finished. Because of this, Neil experienced the worst pain of his life, as he was violently mutated by his own creation. His skin turned apple green, his hair began to give off a green mist, and his blood turned toxic and acidic, as demonstrated when he threw up on the ground during his transformation and melted a hole in the floor. In order to survive, he crawled inside one of his containment pods. The chemicals also negatively affected his mind, causing him to fall into hallucinations for a few days. While his wife was attempting to reverse engineer a cure, Neil would sit in his containment pod, stewing over what happened to him and how to get revenge. Once his wife had engineered a containment suit for him, he broke out of the lab and went on a killing spree, slaughtering anyone who was in the gang that ruined his life. After he was arrested, his wife injected herself with a perfected version of the serum and broke him out of his prison transport. The two thus become the newest criminal couple in Harking City, Hazmax & Toxzita.

I also redesigned Riddler to look like a Cyberpunk character.
Villains: Eternity (Ramsey Rossmo)
In an attempt to travel back in time to visit his dead wife, Dr. Ramsey Rossmo uses an experimental time machine to relive his happy years with her. Unfortunately, he winds up finding out that him traveling back in time is the reason why his wife died. While trying to adjust history to fix his mistake, his machine malfunctions and sends him back to the beginning of the universe, wherein he was frozen in stasis, just watching time pass him by. He couldn’t go forward to when he was born, nor back before he got caught in stasis. All he could do was watch time pass him by. He saw the birth of the first organism, the first fish to crawl onto dry land, the first homosapien walk on two legs, the first decipherable language spoken, the first war, the first civilization, and everything that led up to where everyone was in the future. During his time in stasis, he realized that there was no god, and he came to the conclusion that every religious war was completely pointless. He finally fell out of stasis when he caught up to his time period, that being 2179. After coming out of stasis, he claimed to be a time god, and that he was here to prove that all of our petty squabbling over religious beliefs were all for nothing. He then gained a massive amount of followers, and they proceeded to lay siege to all of Harking City’s religious institutes, burning down every church and religious gathering. After they massacred an entire hate church full of Neo-Nazis, his “Religion of Eternity” gained a massive cult following. They even beheaded the Archdeacon of the Christian Church, and hung all of the priests from the roof. They were eventually stopped by Bonfire, who was an Atheist, too.

Poison Ivy
The Gardener
Louie, The Lilac
Impostor Joker
Before he had his unfortunate encounter with The Joker, Winslow Heath was simple businessman who worked for pharmaceuticals company. He had a girlfriend named Beth who he was planning to propose to. One night while having a romantic picnic on a rooftop, The Joker showed up, riding a jet pack. He was being chased by Batman, who quickly caught up and tackled him to the ground. In order to distract Batman, he tossed a Joker Gas grenade at Winslow, who quickly started to succumb to the gas. Fortunately, it turns out that Winslow and Beth were stoners/drug users, and the drugs in their systems were able to stop the gas from killing them. Unfortunately, the gas put Winslow in a state of paralysis, and he was put in Gotham Hospital. He wasn't in a coma, though. He was fully aware of his surroundings, he could hear everything happening, but he could move or speak. 2 years later, they decided to run a brain scan on Winslow, and that's when they found out that he was conscious. Using advancements in medical science, they were able to restore him to full function. Admitting their negligence, the hospital gave Winslow a huge cash settlement. Using this money, he was able to set up his own pharmaceutical company, and soon became rich enough to rival Bruce Wayne and Simon Stagg. However, Winslow had a lot of time to think while stuck in his glass coffin, and he grew to greatly resent Batman, blaming him for bringing all of this misery to Gotham City. Seeking revenge against the Dark Knight, Winslow was able to get his hands on the recipe for Joker Toxin, and used hired a mad chemist named Dr. Kaligari to convert it into a non-lethal drug that they called "Joker Juice". It comes in a gaseous form contained in small, pill-shaped capsules. Crack it open, sniff it, and your hair turns green, your skin turns white, and you go crazy for about an hour. He then handed it out different citizens and orchestrated mad mob riots in different parts of Gotham. After a cop killed one of the Jokerz, more people started to buy the Joker Juice, and engaged in a coordinated attack on the GCPD. After several cops were killed in the riot, an impostor Batman rose up and told all of Gotham's citizens to defend their city by dressing up as Batman and killing any other the Jokerz they could find. Before long, the entire city engaged in a month-long war between the Jokerz and the Guardian Batz. In order to pull off his master plan, Winslow built an amusement park for citizens to have fun in to distract themselves from the carnage. However, this was a trap. He and Dr. Kaligari had developed a version of Joker Juice that made you destructive and violent, and had rigged to park's lampposts to spray the gas onto the crowds. Before long, the entire park turned into death arena with both Batz and Jokerz trying to kill each other all over the place. The Impostor Batman had led an army of Guardian Bats to lay siege to the park, and he strolled through the park, brutally slaughtering Jokerz left, right, and center. Batman chased the Impostor Batman into the Hall Of Mirrors, and was able to unmask him after a fight. It turns out that Winslow Heath was both the Impostor Joker, and the Impostor Batman. He'd orchestrated all of this to show Batman how his battles with the Joker constantly destroy Gotham, and the lives of everyone around them. Winslow then revealed the other reason he was doing this. After he was poisoned by the gas, Beth disappeared. It turns out that she'd taken the same drugs that night, and they also stopped the gas from killing, but also put her in the same "Glass Coffin" state. Batman didn't see her, and she was left there paralyzed for god knows how long. I wonder what it felt like when the crows ate her to death. Batman then tried to arrest Winslow, but he lost him in the crowd of Jokerz and Guardian Batz. No one has seen him since, but who knows where he is, or what he's planning.

Villains: Prankster (Jonathan Lincoln)
Jonathan was born into a wealthy family that owned a very successful toy company. Despite his parents loving children, they were rarely ever around to give their son any attention. Starved for attention, Jonathan started to pull large scale pranks at his school. He didn’t do stupid whoopee cushions, though. He instead took all of the books in the library and hung them from the ceiling, and put dissected frogs into the gelatin salad at the parent-teacher banquet. During his time as the school clown, Jonathan slowly began to grow mentally unstable, as he constantly tried to get bigger and better with his “performance art”. When the day came for the school’s science fair, Jonathan snuck into the school the night before and tampered with the student’s inventions. Everything went according to plan, until it came to the unlimited energy device created by the school’s prodigy student. He didn’t completely understand what he was tampering with, and he accidentally caused it to explode when it was being demonstrated, killing 20 people and setting fire to the auditorium. He was then sent to a mental institution and was promptly disowned by his parents. While in the institution, Jonathan fell into a catatonic state because he was so bored. During a blackout two years later, Jonathan broke out of the asylum thanks to the power outage, and the first thing he did was return home and burn his family’s house down while leaving his parents tied up in the basement. He then went to their toy factory and stole a massive amount of their toys, reverse-engineering them into deadly weapons. Having been inspired by seeing superheroes and supervillains in the outside world, he decided to become a member of this new wave of villains. Directly after the blackout crisis was solved, Prankster made himself known to the citizens of Harking City by embarking on a spree of comedic crime. He robbed a bank and replaced all of the money with Monopoly money, hurled a 50 ft gumball at a candy factory, and switched around all of the street signs. Having shown off his cunning nature, he was approached by Illusionist and asked to join his supervillain team W.A.R, which he gladly accepted.
