What If?!?!?! SVU Professors were Batman Villains




Lets get a quick Disclaimer out of the way. I thought of this A) Because I am a huge Comic book nerd my knowledge is not infallible, but it's better than some, and I do get in huge comic nerd fights, I actually got into one at SVU over the Captain America Death when a fellow comic book nerd said that the Red Skull Shot Captain America and then I simply said no... Sharon Carter Shot Captain America and she insisted that the gun was in the Red Skull's hand and I replied I was unaware the Red Skull was blonde and had a comic book girl rack. Anyway, I only argue when I know someone is wrong. So my comic book seriousness is now established. B) I was watching a trailer for the new Batman Game Arkham City, and thought, you know who would make an awesome Riddler, Scott would make an Awesome Riddler So Anne and I thought we would make a short Blog and concentrate only on Batman Villains because they are the most sadistic, colorful, intriguing and overall fun Villains out there. Well, that's our opinion I know there are others out there that are impressive like Magneto, Dr. Doom, Black Manta, the above mentioned Red Skull, Lex, and deathstroke are all impressive and good villains but Batman has a really fun cast to compare with the SVU Professors. It is also important that we state we are basing the comparison on the comic book's that we read and not the movies, so if you don't understand why we picked a certain villain for a professor read the comics to find out. So On we Go.


1) Since we already mentioned this. Anne and Agree that The Riddler would be best portrayed by Scott Dransfield. (by the way I stole these pictures from Facebook,and the school website, if any professor would rather not have their picture up on this silly blog, I will take it down for you.)


So Why did we pick the Riddler for Dransfield. Well, Dransfield is into poetry, so ultimately could write good Riddles for the Bat. He has a great laugh, not Joker sadistic laugh, but a fantastic laugh. He has a crazy sense of humor that lends itself to the Riddler's sense of Humor. The Riddler needs a lanky Character or a Charismatic Character to pull off His Body Language. So therefore we feel like Dransfield would make a good Riddler. Plus, Who better to Drive The Batman Mad and do so in such a Complicated manor that it feels like you are reading a Sherlock Holmes Mystery. Riddle laden and Full of laughs. I Think Dransfield is perfect for the Riddler.

2) Robert Stoddard is next on our list. So with his intelligence his witty charm and his stoic character Anne and I picked Ra's Al Ghul as his Batman Villain character. I think the beard could be pulled off by Stoddard. Also the relentlessness of Ra's is important to get across and if someone can be intense at the school, but a calm intense that sends the seriousness of the situation in a scary and calm way Stoddard can pull that off. He has such a politeness and calmness about him that if he were evil it would translate into terror.






3)
Karen Hufford would make a really good Harley Quinn. Why? Because she has an obsessive personality (Tom Cruise?) and that lends itself to the Quinn character. This blind obsession would lead to her following the Joker without question. Her insights into people's work also coincides with the Quinn character's past as a Psychologist. If you put her funny quirky charm and obsessions up against Harley's there is no other choice.





4) One of the best Batman Villians out there that is continuously ignored by Hollywood but could be easily done is The Black Mask. He is Brutal, unrelenting. He is Evil and Uber Violent, He is the perfect Gotham City Villain because he is tough and run's his mob with and Iron Fist of precision. He is one of the most dangerous and most respected Villain by the Batman himself. When Batman knows Black Mask is involved he is a little more careful to check the base's to make sure he doesn't get in trouble. This is the Villain he leaves Robin at home for because Black Mask doesn't aim for the Armor of the Chest, He goes for the eyes. The Black Mask is by Far the Most Sadistic (well second to Mr. J) Villain that Batman Faces. So who could be so Evil, Who could just loose it and Start a Gang that Murders just for the sake of the Body Count. I think Jeremiah John could pull that off. He has the Gusto. He has the Voice that could lead a man to pick up a gun and do what he wants with it. Dr. John could take down the Batman. He could make Billions off of Drug Money and Arm's Sales.









5)Well I wanted to Leave this Villain out but when we talk about Batman you can't really. Plus, when Anne and I got to talking about professors we wanted to include in this list we thought of a few who had to be here just because their personality abounds and must be mentioned. So with personality like The Joker's we could think of No other professor on Campus to compare than that of Dr. Jones. Not only is Jan Erik Funny to the core, but he has that contagious laugh (contagious laugh did you see what i did there) but, he is a genius and if you are a genius you should be an evil genius.
The Joker is Batman's Greatest Villain More Sadistic than even the Black Mask. Not the strongest, but the hardest for sure. His list of pain in the Batman Universe goes on. Barbara Gordon Paralyzed, Jason Todd Murdered, The Turn of Arkham Asylum from Prison to the inmates to Batman's personal nightmare, No one has fought the Bat more and had more chances to Kill the Batman Than the Joker, but he can't Kill the Batman why? Because messing with him is SO MUCH FUN!! Doesn't that just Sound like Jones, he just wants to have fun like Cyndi Lauper and the girls in 1984. Plus the body type lends himself I would love to see Jones in a Purple Suit with Tails. Plus the Joker/Riddler team ups would be off the CHAIN!!!!!





6) This next one may cause a wee bit of a stir to the three people who read my blog. However, I really think if you ignore the Cartoons on WB and the Movies I could not find a better fit for the character. In the Comics The Penguin is a Crime Lord the Bird with the Word on the Night Scene. He runs night clubs, Gangs, and even some of the reputable villains in the Batman Universe report to him. Nothing goes on in the town without him knowing and if something does go down, whoever pulled it is not only in trouble with Batman, he better watch the back door for the penguin as well. Penguin is the Lord of Crime in Gotham, and as much as Batman wants to pretend like he has things under control, the real man or bird with his pulse on the system is the Penguin. With a high intelligence level and a savvy for opportunity, and a great sense of humor Randall Cluff is the perfect Penguin.

















7) My Favorite Batman Villain of All time is a quirky little guy who has the ability to control peoples mind with his little devices, He is also a little crazy and bases himself off a classic literature character. The Mad Hatter is one of the Batman's greatest pain in the sides. He can be down and not even a player at one moment and challenging Black Mask the next. He is quiet. He is brilliant. He is time oriented. He takes his punches when it is time to do so. This is the one Batman never see's coming. He takes little steps for a larger picture. So what professor can pull something like that of. Steven Baldridge is our choice.











The Bow tie Helped, Bow ties are cool.


8) Mr. Freeze is my least favorite Batman Villain, however when discussing how we going to go about whom to include we couldn't skip this professor. We decided that this professor also must be included in our first attempt. there are lots of villains in the batman world and lots of opportunities to put them side by side professors, but we don't want to include a huge amount so we had to go with a limit of ten. So this Professor fits Mr. Freeze perfectly. He isn't truly evil, he isn't mad like The Joker or Violent like the Black Mask. He only does crime because he needs to further his research to help save his wife from her frozen state. Again if you look at the adaptations in hollywood arnold didn't play a good freeze, but does that movie even count in the batman world. NO. No it doesn't. Batman doesn't need extra armor on his nipples people. anyway, The perfect SVU Mr. Freeze is Dr. Macdonnell. Just because Dr. Macdonnell could never be pure evil. HAHAHAHA..... like Jones or John or any other could, but I think Macdonnell would look awesome in the suit with the helmet and everything. the robotic voice would sound awesome with a Massachusetts accent.









9)The next on the way was the best villain in the Arkham Asylum video game, Scarecrow appears in Blackest Night with one of the most memorable moments. He is the one who brings fear into the hearts of everyone in Gotham. He has been underused until recently. He is one of the best laid out villains in Batman's vast history and as unpredictable as his villains come. Considering that the reason behind the choice is not only the occupation, but the overall ability to pull the character off, Michael Gibbons is perfect for this character.


I think his personality lends itself to this. He likes to have fun with people. He is kind of a prankster and is a kid at heart, which lends itself to having fun with peoples emotions. He is the school's counselor so he could really use that to his advantage. If I know anyone I know Gibbons could pull off the Scarecrow, because he could scare people out of their pants if he wanted too. Then he would LAUGH AND LAUGH AND LAUGH AND LAUGH and you lay on the ground with tears in your eyes and pee in your pants. We love you neighbor!!!


10)next on the list is the sickest villain on the Batman roster. Victor Zsasz we wanted to include him because he would make a great villain for the Darker Batman films. If Batman ever releases a rated R film I will be upset if Zsasz isn't included. He basically is a millionaire boy toy who gets bored and looses his mind and decides to murder children, woman, and men, innocent or not. When he kills someone he carves a place on his skin for there life. He is saving a place on his body for Batman, Robin and Catwoman. We picked the one person who could be vengeful enough to do this. plus, the fact that they resemble one another helps a lot. Coach Harmon.



















Ok enough is enough. I might do another one because there was a lot of laughs at whom could portray who. We kept goofing off at Who we would put as Clay Face. We also joked around with Killer Croc. We also left some really good professors out. Like Fuentes, Rodriguez, Arogyasami, Knudson, Mosser, Armstrong, Hugh, Card, Crawford, Whitehurst, Knight, Konstantinova and Many more. lots of popular villains left out like Catwoman, Red Hood, Bane, Poison Ivy, Hush,Soloman Grundy, Batmite, Firefly, Two Face, Deadshot, Hugo Strange, Killer moth, Humpty Dumpty, Manbat, Scarface and others. Lots of Others and rare ones like the Great White Shark, Calander Man, Jane Doe, Headhunter, Flamingo Anarchy, King Tut, Prometheus,The Black Glove,Lynx,Puppet Master, Cluemaster and Onomatopoeia. This could be interesting. Feel free to comment.
