I've never really been into super heroes and when I heard they were making a series about the characters from Batman as they when they were growing up, I expected it to be a bit corny but after watching it I have go say that it has been really well done and I'm hooked into it.
The big question I think everyone is wondering at the moment is who the Joker will be. One internet theory is that the Penguin is really the Joker. I am beginning to think the Joker is one of the Russian mob. Reading up on the Joker, it says his past prior to him appearing as the young mobster turn joker has no history in Gotham. I wonder if perhaps he came to America as an immigrant from Eastern block.
