*** FridgeBrilliance connected to this: by the logic above, Croc has been drawn to Crane believing he has Batman's scent. As soon as he realizes it's not Batman, he throws him away in disappointment (perhaps not logical, but Croc's been obsessed with getting Batman . Crane promptly scurries away thanking every single deity for his momentary good fortune.

* I was playing the [[spoiler:Titan Joker]] fight and realized that the health meter we see isn't for [[spoiler:Titan Joker]] it's for ''the area of the floor he lands on.'' Since [[spoiler:Titan Joker]] is basically invincible, the only thing related to him that can be given a meter ''is'' the floor. The meter only goes down after he falls onto, and yanks himself out, damaging it until it can't take the third impact.

*** Batman doesn't ''have'' to look for Crane.

No sign of Crane. Granted, depending on the ending, [[spoiler:Crane might just be okay]]. Which begs the question of whether or not Croc dragged him back to his lair to play checkers and have tea until Batman found the first spore, since Croc doesn't try to kill him until about then.

Batman might not deliberately kill people, but if criminals due to attempting to flood the home of a vicious monster with toxic chemicals, he's not going to get choked up about it. Besides, what was Batman going to do, dive into the water after Crane and Croc? If the player ''does'' dive/fall into the water at any point, Batman promptly becomes Croc's next meal.
