** When trying to disarm Anarky's third bomb during his sidequest, Anarky and his followers complain about how Gotham's police force doesn't actually care about its citizens, and how the city would actually be better without them. Their attitude here is a little more uncomfortable to observe come 2020, where public opinion on the police after the death of George Floyd would eerily reflect what Anarky and his supporters believe, leading to many people protesting to defund or even outright abolish them in multiple parts of the U.S.

** Bird is this due to his horrible appearance, bland side mission (not helped by the fact that completing it unlocks the Special Combo Disarm and Destroy, yet occurs very late in the game, meaning that a very useful combat upgrade is unusable for most of the game, unlike in ''City'' and ''Knight'', where it can be purchased in the [=WayneTech=] menu fairly early on) and how easy he was to take down despite being Bane's right hand.
