In my opinion, Mr. Zsasz is as much a danger to himself as to others and prison is probably not the best environment for his rehabilitation.

Victor Zsasz was a psychopathic hitman for Carmine Falcone that was incarcerated at Arkham Asylum.

Zsasz was a brutal hitman for the Falcone Crime Family. He was later arrested for his crimes, but Dr. Crane testified in Court that Zsasz was unfit for prison, and had him sent to Arkham Asylum. In reality, Crane and Carmine Falcone were in the middle of a drug deal, and part of their agreement involved Crane giving Falcone's men the insanity verdict in order to have them avoid prison.

He was among the criminals that escaped when Ra's al Ghul's plan was sent in motion. In the Narrows, brandishing a knife at Rachel Dawes while under the influence of Scarecrow's Fear Toxin. He was stopped by Batman.

  • While the film portrays Zsasz as a rather typical psychotic killer with no displayed personality, the game tie-in to the film expands upon his character in an added level. In it, he acts quite similar to his comic counterpart, threatening Detective Flass and referring to his victims as "piggies".
