Secrets About Kid Kawaii, XXL, Flatline And More Confirmed (Spoilers)

Published Tue, 30 Nov 2021 12:09:12 -0600

In some previous Gotham Gossip, Bleeding Cool listed some secrets regarding some recently created Gotham-related characters. And with the release today of the Robin 2021 Annual and the Batman 2021 Annual, you will be able to judge just how we did…

Kid Kawaii is an innocent child's mind trapped in a top-of-the-line ferro fluid assassin's body. created by Akumaco. Razorline is an occultist with powers from the Book Of Pain, stolen from the secret city of Shambhala

Flatline's grandfather was a super-powered Russian serial killer and assassin with the power to learn from those who killed. A little like Chu from Chew… without the cannibalism.

The Drenched was an Atlantis scientific experiment, a genetic mix of Atlantean and Trench.

Brainstorm is a powerful telekinetic, engineered against his will to become a living weapon.

XXL is only ten years old.

The Instigator put the August General In Iron in a coma for 3 weeks

Black Swan is a ballerina who accidentally killed everyone on stage in a fit of pique.

But what we didn't tell you, and really I feel bereft for missing this out, is that Connor Hawke has killed. But only once.

But does it count if it is in the League Of Lazarus when people come back?

Something Conner Hawke has now done himself after being a victim of the Manhattan Transfer?

Ah, we seem to have done okay…
