How did this fucker get away EVERYTIME?
How did this fucker get away EVERYTIME?
Aiden Ward
Benjamin Richardson
why he was so dummy thicc tho
Aiden Wilson
Expensive lawyers and most probably the animators were too lazy to come up with a new design for Mafia boss
Jose Hall
so he could continue to be a thorne in batman's side
Asher Flores
He didn't in that Batwoman movie, they mostly used the Penguin as Gotham's top mobster in the later season aside from that
Daniel Young
That doesn't mean shit. Most probably they used Penguin because he's a recognizable villain
Landon Price
Batman is perfect for giving villains a good hiding, but he can't put them in jail. Due process and all that. Gangsters have to decide whether their drug money is worth getting their collarbone snapped once a season.
Brayden Clark
>Killed (Maybe) The Two-Face Twins
Bastard must DIE!
Angel Watson
How come the comics haven't used Rupert Thorne in decades?
Gabriel Jackson
Because the only old villains writers ever want to re-use are costumed villains. Hugo Strange and Falcone are the only notable exceptions.
Eli Howard
See Good question, I wish I knew.
Was he a ripoff of Wilson Fisk?
Elijah Cook
>not as smart
>not even physically strong
>not bald
Michael Rivera
I don't know but his secretary was the best girl.
John Price
What about this asshole?
Christian Scott
And like said, the Penguin took over the "top mobster in Gotham" role in the 90s.
Charles Roberts
I think by his last appearance in "Return of Batgirl", he was dead broke and all his businesses were shut down.
Levi James
Thorne was actually based on a real life figure.
en.wikipedia.org
Thorne originated in the comics as a politician figure with underworld power, much like Boss Tweed.
Steve Englehart, Thorne's creator, admited as much.

Kevin Edwards
Isn't he dead?
Jace Reyes
Nope, he's still alive, and according to the wiki makes occasional cameos in Blackgate. Which is just baffling, if he's iconic and recognizable enough to make cameos, why does nobody use him as an actual crime boss again?
Caleb Bennett
Wasn't his only relevance in the comics being part of an ongoing storyline involving Hugo Strange back in the 80s?
Christian Cruz
His most recent cameo was in Three Jokers.
