-->'''Wicker:''' Riddler's really got it in for you, you know. Seriously, I've never seen a guy so obsessed. He'll get you sooner or later, Bat. Either that, or you'll drive him mad. It used to be funny, you know, you'd haul Eddie in and he'd sit in his cell lecturing anyone who'd listen about how stupid you were. And the, one day, it just wasn't funny anymore. It was pathetic. He stopped taking care of himself, got that crazy look in his eyes. I swear, man, he's broken. ''You'' broke him. And now you threw me in here for feeling sorry for him. Screw you!

[[folder:Luthor]]
!!ComicBook/LexLuthor
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KeithSilverstein (''Arkham Knight''), Creator/CoreyBurton (''Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League'')
-->'''Voiced By (It):''' ???
A corrupt businessman who's at odds with Bruce Wayne.

* AndShowItToYou: [[spoiler: How he meets his end, courtesy of The Flash.]]
* TheCameo: His only appearance in ''Knight'' is as a voicemail to Bruce about buying Wayne Enterprises' Applied Sciences Division.
* ComicBookFantasyCasting: His design seems to take a few cues from Elon Musk, particularly his stocky frame and downturned mouth.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: It's clear during his cameo that he's trying to needle Bruce into selling Wayne Enterprises' Applied Science Division in a very predatory fashion and dialogue with the Militia revealed he helped to fund them as he has plans on Gotham. His voice sounds just as sinister and threatening as you would expect from Lex.
* FantasticRacism: Shares the prejudices against metahumans and aliens that other recent Luthors have. Militia members can be heard discussing how he's made it a policy position while running for President.
* VillainOfAnotherStory: Seeing how Franchise/{{Superman}} is canon to this continuity, Lex is presumably still the Man of Steel's arch-nemesis as always.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler: Earth-1's Lex is killed by the Flash, leaving Earth-2's Lex to provide aid to the Suicide Squad for the rest of their mission.]]

!!Warden Ranken
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/wardenranken.jpg]]
->'''Voiced by (En)''': Creator/DeeBradleyBaker
->'''Voiced By (It):''' ???
The corrupt warden of Iron Heights Penitentiary. He appears in ''Arkham Knight,'' in the Season of Infamy DLC mission "Beneath the Surface".
----
* CanonForeigner: Much like Sharp and Joseph, he's created for the games.
* ColdBloodedTorture: His experiments on Killer Croc amount to this; he went so far as to ''slice Croc's arm off with a buzzsaw'' just to see if it would grow back.
* EvilutionaryBiologist: The point of his brutal experiments on Croc was to find a way to weaponize [[BodyHorror Croc's condition]] to create {{Super Soldier}}s.
* HateSink: An abusive and monstrously unrepentant warden who tortures and experiments on his prisoners, making Killer Croc look more sympathetic by comparison.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: He conducted brutal experiments on Croc with the intent to weaponize his condition. The resulting [[AdaptiveAbility adaptation]] to the trauma soon turned Croc into something far too powerful for Ranken to contain.
* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: Batman finds his experiments on Croc and the other Iron Heights inmates so heinous that, after defeating Croc, he outright tells Ranken that ''he's'' the only monster there.
* WardensAreEvil: Batman considers him worse than any of the inmates.

[[folder:Amanda Waller]]
!!ComicBook/AmandaWaller
->'''Voiced By (En):''' Creator/CCHPounder (''Assault on Arkham''), Creator/DebraWilson (''Kill the Justice League'')
->'''Voiced By (It):''' Alessandra Felletti

* AdaptationalAttractiveness: In the stinger of ''Origins'' and her role in ''Blackgate'' she's noticeably much slimmer then we normally see of her, more akin to her ''ComicBook/{{New 52}}'' look. ''Assault on Arkham'' returns her to her usual look, apparently having bulked up since those eight years, and flipped right back in ''Kill the Justice League'' where she reverts back to her slimmer appearance.
* AdaptationalVillainy: Hands down the most spiteful, vicious, and unsympathetic version of this character to date, at least if you don't count her DCEU version.
* AxCrazy: Downplayed, but this version of her is very ruthless and violent.
* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler:Batman even calls her on it at the end of the film. Waller knew the convicts would go rogue once in Arkham, and was counting on that as a diversion for a lone assassin to go after The Riddler. She knew if she sent the whole team with the objective of killing The Riddler, it would arouse their suspicions as to why. However, despite "breaking a lot of eggs to make an omelette", Batman points out the flaw in her plans by calling her "a messy cook", as Riddler got away.]]
* BlackBossLady: She's in charge of the Suicide Squad.
* TheCameo: She appears only once in the ''Origins'', and once in ''Origins Blackgate'', each with a few lines. She finally steps into the spotlight in the ''[[WesternAnimation/BatmanAssaultOnArkham Assault on Arkham]]'' animated movie.
* FormerlyFat: While in her classic overweight appearance in ''Assault on Arkham'', DLC for ''Underworld'' takes place afterward and reused Waller's ''Origins'' design, hence Waller lost that weight.
* FormerlyFit: During ''Origins'', she has a slender, New 52-esque appearance. By ''Assault'', she's gained a substantial amount of weight and looks more like her classic comics design.
* HateSink: We clearly aren't supposed to like her in this continuity.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: She's a very advertised part of ''Assault on Arkham'', taking away from the surprise of her prior cameos.
* TheManBehindTheMan: Implied to have set up the [[VideoGame/BatmanArkhamOriginsBlackgate Blackgate uprising a few months after Christmas]] as a testing ground to find who to employ to her ComicBook/SuicideSquad.
* TheSociopath: Perfectly willing to sacrifice lives to get what she wants.
* TheStinger: Her appearance in ''Origins''.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: The ending of ''WesternAnimation/BatmanAssaultOnArkham'' implies that Deadshot killed her, but we never see for sure. DLC for ''[[VideoGame/BatmanArkhamUnderworld Underworld]]'' takes place afterward and states Batman stopped Deadshot before he could fire.

[[folder:Flag]]
!!Rick Flag
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/flag4.png]]
-->'''Voiced by (En):''' Creator/AdamBaldwin
-->'''Voiced By (It):''' ???
Waller's right-hand man.

* AdaptationalJobChange: During his appearance in ''Blackgate'', his rank is Captain rather than Colonel.
* AdaptationalWimp: Sort of. During his appearance in ''Blackgate'', we don't see his combat skills in action, spending most of the game at the office.
* DemotedToExtra: He only appears as a minor character in ''Blackgate''.
* EveryoneHasStandards: He expresses disdain at Deadshot, and isn't happy when Waller decided to recruit him and Bronze Tiger into the Suicide Squad.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Like Deathstroke and Bronze Tiger, he doesn't appear in ''Assault on Arkham'' despite it featuring the Squad.

-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KeithSilverstein

* TokenGoodCop: In ''Origins'', James Gordon is the only honest cop among the GCPD during Bruce's early years as Batman, even if he initially opposed Batman for being a vigilante. That said, he still had the flaw of being a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter, naively believing that the majority of the police force had the same sense of right and wrong as he does and thinks that their badges prove they work within the law. One of his most egregious examples is when he puts blind faith in Branden solely because he's a cop, despite the fact that Branden has proven time and again that he's a Dirty Cop who hates his sense of justice. Barbara correctly points out that he "put[s] way too much faith in the system".

* DeadlineNews: Very nearly averted in the second game. Joker phones her with an anonymous tip about Batman to lure her to the city then blows her copter out of the sky. She survives only to be targeted by snipers which Batman manages to stop.

* RedIsHeroic: Zigzagged. The overall design of The Suit of Sorrows includes red highlights, [[spoiler:but while he himself bears heroic aspirations, Azrael is being manipulated by a corrupt organization that wants to remove Batman and take over Gotham.]] [[spoiler:Played straight if Azrael rebels against The Order, but averted entirely if Azrael chooses to carry out their mission.]]

* WardensAreEvil:
** Subverted. He's a bit of a weed who's complicit in Gotham's corruption and doesn't run Blackgate very well, but he's a peach compared to Sharp or Ranken. That said, he did pressure a psychologist to redact an insanity diagnosis, [[PayEvilUntoEvil with the express intention of ensuring a death penalty for the (admittedly homicidal and unrepentant) inmate in question]].
** Completely averted in his 2nd appearance in ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamOriginsBlackgate'', when he refuses the opportunity to escape the prison to save his own skin because he wants to help protect his staff. Even Batman gives him a respectful response when he's still determined to stay and help even after being tortured by the Joker.

* AdaptationalJerkass: The original Ferris Boyle from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' was a scumbag for sure, but he was essentially opportunistic and was [[VillainHasAPoint correct that Victor's work wasn't authorized]] and things didn't get out of hand until Victor pulled a gun on him. The Ferris here also has a sadistic streak, as when [[spoiler:he taunts a helpless Victor that he'll kill Nora before he kills him, [[ForcedToWatch just so he can see her slip away]], all the while bashing him over the head with a piece of Victor's suit repeatedly. Furthermore, Victor didn't pull a gun on him; he had his men hold Victor still while he goes about PistolWhipping him. He also personally traps Batman in a Ice Blast and intends to leave him to die to wipe away any remaining witnesses.]]

* GutturalGrowler: [[spoiler:When he makes a threatening phone call to Roman Sionis in what sounds like his Holiday Killer persona.]]

* DidntThinkThisThrough: His decision to work for Riddler in an era where thhe GCPD is more honest and less forgiving towards a DirtyCop (not to mention Batman shows no mercy to them) shows that said decision was poorly thought out. Plus, him choosing to work for Riddler (the ButtMonkey of the rogues gallery) instead of one of the somewhat more respected names (Penguin, Two-Face, etc.) also shows that he's not particularly smart.

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Despite witnessing the corruption of the police force first-hand in ''Arkham Origins'', he still naively believed that the majority of the police officers had the same sense of right and wrong as he does and the fact that they have a badge means they work within the law. One of his most egregious examples is when he puts blind faith in Branden solely because he's a cop, despite the fact that Branden has proven time and again that he's Dirty Cop who hates his sense of justice. Barbara correctly points out that he "put[s] way too much faith in the system".

* DiesDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:In ''ComicBook/BatmanDarkVictory'', Loeb was killed by Sofia Falcone hanging him during her killing spree as [[SamusIsAGirl the Hangman]]. Here, the Joker, posing as Black Mask, puts him in a gas chamber while freeing the Calendar Man and threw the switch, exposing Loeb to poison gas.]]

->'''Voiced By (En):''' Creator/JonPolito

* VocalEvolution: Jon Polito's voice for Loeb in the game is higher pitched and less gruff than it was in the AnimatedAdaptation of ''Comicbook/BatmanYearOne''.

* VideogameCaringPotential: Provided you didn't actually shoot any of the "zombies", he's still freaking out due to the Fear Gas, but it's telling that he's on the track to recovery.
** In fact, he does recover over the course of the game, until he's well enough to be left sitting in an unused office in the main room of the GCPD, while the cell he was in gets used to house Deacon Blackfire's disciples.

* BadassBaritone: His deep voice helps add to his mystery.

* CanonForeigner: Only shows up in the Arkhamverse.

* DemotedToExtra:
** In the second game. Though considering he was a hostage in the first game, he probably isn't complaining.
** He gets slightly more involvement in "Harley Quinn's Revenge", though. Just a few lines in a conversation with Batman, some other chatter on the radio and off, and a conversation at the end, but more than in the game proper.
** Gets much larger roles in ''Origins'' and ''Knight'', which makes sense as both games showcase Batman and Gordon working together, side by side.
