It’s Batman Day 2025, and Gotham is buzzing. With The Penguin racking up awards and fresh updates on Matt Reeves’ The Batman: Part II, DC Junktion is celebrating the Dark Knight in style. This week, Mike and Matt pitch their own villain reboots for the Reeves-verse — imagining how overlooked rogues could be reimagined as grounded, prestige-level threats. From cult leaders to revolutionaries to psychological manipulators, Gotham’s underbelly has never looked darker.
