Batman: Caped Crusader (2024) Season 1, Episode 4

PRISONER: Actually, it’s Firebug.

Welcome under the cut where I speak type to myself!

Much like the audience, the GCPD gets FireBUG mixed up with FireFLY. The gimmick is the same, but he’s introduced as a meek, soft-spoken man who can blow up at any moment. Which means he endeared himself to me immediately and predictably.

I didn’t expect to get attached to an episodic villain, but I did anticipate them to make good use of his talents: arson. Beside giving Batman an opportunity to save civilians instead of hunting down criminals, Firebug was as bait used by Flass and Bullock to lure the vigilante. In the end, you resent them more for goading Firebug and the system that put them in a position of power.

Having said all that, I know that my attachment has more to do with him being a seemingly helpless and utterly hopeless man driven by his own compulsions. A man whose Id was indulged by those with power over his wellbeing. A man like Cornelius Stirk in Batman Unburied.

Oh, and the fact that they designed him to look eerily close to how I pictured him in my head and always struggle to sketch also helped.

I think i'm finally happy w firebug's design for my AU! Took a lot (and i mean a lot) of inspiration from his suit in caped crusader, i just loved the look of it for some reason. A nice change from the complicated mess that is my firefly LOL. The only thing that i kept the same from last year was basically his hair and face :) also i just realized i didnt add his flamethrower gauntlet things he has in the show. Uhm
