changing at the hands of the brave, honest and well-established
detective Jim Gordon. After contending with deplorable characters
such as Fish Mooney, Penguin and Butch Gilzean, Jim Gordon is back in
action facing a whole host of new and abominable individuals in
Gotham Season 3 which

coldest and cruellest villains.
Mr Freeze
Dr. Victor Fries was a determined scientist and a
dedicated husband, devoting his work to researching ways to freeze
people in a grave effort to save his terminally ill wife. Yet
Victor’s motives began to go amiss; armed with a freeze gun and
crazed intentions, ‘Dr Freeze’ began kidnapping the inhabitants
of Gotham city in a bid to discover the ultimate scientific
breakthrough.

to wear a cryogenic suit just to stay alive. He soon however finds
his purpose in life as a new and improved Mr Freeze, armed with toxic
immunity, superhuman strength and decelerated ageing, Victor is
poised and ready to cause mayhem and destruction…
Tabitha / Tigress
Seductive, flirtatious and impulsive is a deadly
and somewhat enchanting concoction more commonly known as Tabitha
Galavan. Sister of former mayor Theo Galavan, Tabitha is an
enchantress of the criminal underworld who thrives and relishes at
the chance to play with people and their emotions. Gifted in the art
of persuasion and a perfectionist of violent skills such as knife
throwing and whipsmanship, Tabitha has repeatedly proved herself to
be someone that you do not want to mess with and is someone who can
bounce back from attempts on her life time and time again…
Theo Galavan
Brother of the enticing Tabitha Galavan, Theo is
by no means any less cunning than his sister. Sent to Gotham by the
order of St. Dumas with the explicit orders to kill Bruce Wayne, Theo
soon established his place as the newest and most cunning character
in Gotham, facing against Jim Gordon with his remarkable
intelligence, speed and strength. Proving himself to be sly and
self-assure, Theo Galavan knows he is capable of great and grave acts
in his first and second lives….
Professor Hugo Strange
The ring-leader of Gotham’s villainous
characters and one of the first ever recurring enemies of Batman,
Professor Hugo Strange is arguably THE most important villain to
reside in Gotham and face up to detective Jim Gordon. A master,
genius and creator, Hugo Strange is a scientist who endeavours to
push the boundaries of human evolution and possibility. The professor
specialises into reanimating the criminal and powerful dead and can
be held personally accountable for the creation of nefarious
trouble-makers such as Mr. Freeze, Azrael, Firefly and Clayface.
Yielding the ability to bring Jim Gordon’s opponents back to life,
will Gotham ever be freed from its crime ridden perimeters?
The Penguin
A spy, umbrella boy and all-round villain, Oswald
Cobblepot otherwise known as Penguin is a criminal mastermind,
exceptional leader and specialist in judo. Entering the criminal
underworld courtesy of volatile and witty leader Fish Mooney, Penguin
has well and truly established himself as a powerful and immoral
gangster of Gotham City. Cunning, revenge-driven and the ultimate
trickster, with Penguin roaming Gotham City, no civilian, friend or
stranger are safe….
The Riddler
A natural born linguist with a penchant for
speaking in riddles, Edward Nygma is better known as The Riddler, a
renowned forensic scientist and former employee of Gotham City Police
Department. Occupying the knowledge of an encyclopaedia, being a
skilled lockpick and explosives expert is a powerful and potentially
ground-breaking combination, but when used for sinister purposes is a
deadly and alarming cocktail for corruption and murder.
