** Intentionally done with Harvey Dent, who appears several times as the honest and incorruptible reformer DA and an ally of the Batman, long before his tragic, [[StatusQuoIsGod never truly undone]] transformation into the monstrous gangster Two-Face.

*CompleteMonster: In the film, [[DirtyCop Commissioner Gillian Loeb]] is the ultimate representation of Gotham's [[WretchedHive corruption]]. Under Loeb's purview, crime runs rampant and crooked cops populate the streets, flooding the city with drugs while the police engage in routine [[PoliceBrutality brutality]] against even children to quell protests. When Batman begins disrupting Loeb's criminal enterprises, the latter corners the hero in a derelict building and firebombs it with no care for the homeless people inside who burn alive; citizens note this kind of [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill overkill]] is par for the course for Loeb's administration. In his attempts to silence Gordon's investigations into his corrupt ways, Loeb has the man viciously beaten; threatens his pregnant wife; and works with Carmine Falcone to kidnap Gordon's wife and newborn baby to use as hostages and, eventually, kill them all to silence them.

** A good portion of Jim Gordon's inner monologue is about how unenthusiastic he is about raising his soon-to-be born son in a crime-ridden city like Gotham. In ''ComicBook/BatmanTheBlackMirror'', his fears prove to be justified, but for all the wrong reasons: James Gordon Jr. goes on to become one of the most [[TheSociopath sadistic]] {{Serial Killer}}s Gotham has ever seen.
