Anyone else fucking HATE Killer Croc? He's honestly so creepy it's distressing to even look at him

He's beautiful.

He's not, but some people make him that.

I hate it when designers go overboard by making him look more animalistic. Giving him a more human shape in my opinion could make the fact that he's a cannibal more horrifying.

Don't be rude, he's had a hard life.

Fuck off Lee

Remember when Brick was Killer Croc?

A hard life of what, being a cannibalistic serial killer? I'm surprised Batman just doesn't kill him, he's not even human.

Sounds like he's doing his job as a monstrous terror, then.

Fuck you Croc is amazing.

He once beat Batman with a rock!

I find him kind of boring but otherwise I don't mind him

That's the point

Killer Croc essentials?

I wish they could just figure out what the fuck to do with him.

Is he a black guy with a skin condition? Is he Lizard-lite? Is he retarded? Is he a genius crimelord?

Fucking pick something already.

He's not whining, he's complaining

Screw it, storytiming a brief, silent Killer Croc story (from Batman Chronicles #3 for those too new to read the filenames).

joker's asylum II killer croc is godlike

This was written after a story where Croc's creator, Doug Moench, introduced the idea that he was continually devolving, and had Batman chase him all the way to the Louisiana Bayou where Swamp-Thing got involved and he and Bats debated whether the laws of man even applied to Croc anymore, or if he was just an animal that sould be allowed to run free. Of course, that ending doesn't really allow you to do any FUTURE Croc stories, so Dixon wisely avoids any narration or dialogue while he silently walks it back.

every time something ever interesting happens with him it always ALWAYS gets shelved.
>Batwoman where he became a literal Crocman
>planned to have him trace his family history back to kind of ancient lizard people or someshit

>the villains month comic
>Killer Croc is the king and protector to all the homeless that live in his sewers

Good thing that first one got shelved, sounds awful.

Also, "Born on the Bayou" is now playing in your head. Manually.

He's meh. I actually hate when they make him more lizard like. My ideal design is BTAS (not New). It's creepy and almost like a reptile, but still human.

;-;

This is what I don't get. He's just supposed to be a guy with a weird skin condition, right?

So why is he super strong, and has a superhuman-level ability at things like swimming?

Croc is based.

He's bl--
>things like swimming
I have no idea.

>he and Bats debated whether the laws of man even applied to Croc anymore, or if he was just an animal that sould be allowed to run free.

Wait, wouldn't the opposite be true? You can put down a dangerous animal in a way you wouldn't to a human. Even Batman would do that if necessary.

If Croc's just an animal then the best thing is to humanely kill him so he doesn't hurt anyone again, just like you would a mad dog.

>the villains month comic
>Killer Croc is the king and protector to all the homeless that live in his sewers
I really liked that one-shot, it's by my man Tim Seeley who is a huge horror buff. It did a great job of bridging the "friend to the outcast and downtrodden of Gotham" aspect of his character which comes up every so often, with the "horrifying monster gang boss" aspect by leading an almost cult-like commune. I think I'll storytime that'n next.

Nah, that's Swamp Thing's tune.

He was a very good fighter/wrestler for the longest while.

plus the teeth and claws that he's always been ready and willing to use

Hey man, you're preaching to the choir here. Doug Moench is very hit-or-miss for me - I think his best contribution is Killer Croc, and I was surprised that he came up with "lol he gets dumber with each appearance" because I assumed that was idiocy born of later writer/artist teams wanting to use Croc as a dumb beast. I infinitely prefer a Croc who is a cannibal crook in possession of all his faculties.

They've been making Batman's rogues more ridiculous so the aren't such a joke compared to the villains other top members of the league have.

Which is shit.

He started out as a guy with a skin condition but features get exaggerated over time.
Just like Spider-man started out as a guy with radioactive powers that arbitrarily decided to go with a spider theme to a guy who is literally the avatar of some kind of Spider-Force

Well, he never got laid, and never will. So there's that.

They should make him a kind hearted disfigured extortionist or a loan collector for the mob, who's only in the job because his disfigurement prevents him from having more job prospects.

...

Appearance in all star batman was good

You're MEAN.

I normally don't much like really animalistic Croc but this story is great.

Dicks out for Killer Croc.

Yeah, he is my favorite villain of the Batman 90s cartoon.

>Well, he never got laid, and never will. So there's that.
C'mon man, it's GOTHAM CITY. There's no way Croc couldn't find a hooker who'd sit on his scaly dick for the right price.

>never will
it's 2016
I'm more surprised there's no superpowered freak porn site
I'm really surprised there are no supers, hero or villain, who haven't done porn

Wasn't he created by Conway?

...

What the sweet fuck is this?

No it isn't, if that is his appearance.

>I'm more surprised there's no superpowered freak porn site
>I'm really surprised there are no supers, hero or villain, who haven't done porn
user, read Grant Morrison's Bulleteer. Really, all of his Seven Soldiers, but that mini in particular.

youtube.com/watch?v=5ea5jKFGgUw

*Bulletgirl, not Bulleteer.

I'll start the Seeley one-shot next.

Shit, you're right. Sorry, early 80s Batman was just a blur to me.

...

You're just jealous that he looks prettier than you.

...

>tfw Bruce Wayne will never hire Killer Croc as a security guard for Wayne Enterprises

Or will he?

Again, aside from the inner monologue, Croc doesn't say a word in this story until the very end. I really, really like stories that emphasize him being a silent predator.

>Croc is from Gotham now

...

That was an awfully eloquent monologue there, Waylon

...

...

Is he the one on the left or the right

...

Nice going, Jason (I think that's Jason anyway), giving Croc ideas.

one of my fave five Batman villains

Turning Croc's soft spot for kids into "they act as his scouts and fucking cripple and taunt his prey for him" was a stroke of genius.

Quite the opposite

...

>villain looks creepy
>that is somehow a bad thing
I love me some creepy designs.

...

...

Well, he's a villain. Not all of them is supposed to be pleasant to look at.

...

...

...

...

...

Is this one-armed magical honkie from some other Croc stories I haven't read? I completely forgot about this page.

...

...

fag

I love reptilian villains but I hate Batman comics so my feelings toward Killer Croc are complicated. He has a great design and inner monologue in this storytime but the inconsistency in his appearances/personality across different runs that I've sampled makes it hard to say if I like him or not.

If I take that mask off, will you die?

That was an awesome read. Pretty sweet.

I think it's one of the best Killer Croc stories. Definitely my favorite.

Left

King Shark and Killer Croc misadventures would make for a nice ongoing series

He is human. He's just got a genetic condition.

wish hed been that badass looking in SS he was one of my favorite batman villians

I'm glad to see the Goombas getting more movie roles.

thatd be cool wouldnt mind seeing him team up with his loli again either

Stupid fucking mobile poster.

Has JR Jr ever seen a shark before?

Last time I saw croc was a scene where he and other villains were getting time shaved off their sentences by helping Wonder Woman train. Is that still a thing?

His most recent appearance was in all Star Batman this week where he's a generic badguy, but he's also on the suicide squad right now, and before that he was helping out Batman stop the joker virus, watching over little girls in gotham academy, and stuff like that.

I would love someone to try and do an ongoing of killer croc attempting to be a hero. For such a basic concept of a character, he's had a ton of good stories.

He's also a metahuman.

And Hush injected him with a virus that mutated him even further.

Life does not like Killer Croc.

i want him to distress my asshole

>Mfw I realized that Croc's stupidity is a result of his condition worsening, slowly destroying his sanity and intelligence like an even more fucked up version of Alzheimer's

I actually hate that the Arkham series got him so perfectly the first time and then his design just took a fucking nose dive.

He's human.

He has avatism; it basically causes organisms to be born with characteristics of their evolutionary ancestors (humans with extra nipples, dolphins with legs, chickens with teeth, horses with toes, etc.).

He's also a metahuman.

He was raised by an abusive alcoholic aunt and was bullied by other kids for his condition.

Personally, I loved his Origins design the best
His overly mutated look in Arkham Knight is pretty awful though.

People always go "oh what would it be like if they fought"

And I can't not see them as friendly rivals at worst and bros at best.

Luckily for you they change his apperance all the time.

Who else here dislikes the modern take of Croc being a cannibal?

I'm beautiful.

>best possible actor to play him
>in such a bad movie
design could be worse but damn it all

thanks for the storytime dude
that was awesome
king croc ftw

Was it a big rock?

Underrated post.

can you niggers like, never enjoy a comic again unless batman goes out and kills someone without remorse?

...we need a retelling of The 30 Year Old Virgin but with Gotham villains trying to get Croc laid.

The progressive mutation was the whole point about the character`s concept in the Arkham games.

>mobile poster
what?

Whining is just complaining for little bitches like OP.

Isn't he from Mario Brothers?

...

No Croc vs Bane beef in any if the DC animated movies. Why?

It was there in the very last one
Can't remember the title
It had giant mechas in it and clearly stole a piece of soundtrack from Pacific Rim
It was mediocre and obviously made to sell toys

BUT THE BEEF WAS THERE

I don't think you know what either of those words mean

I love that Croc design.

Jeez, how many deaths can be traced back to this one guy who had to be an asshole to him?

His face was still pretty shit looking.

Kids can be vicious.

Thanks for that, good story.

This oozes with Macfarlane

>This is what normies believe
>This is how they judge sweet innocent Croc
REEEEEEEEEEEE

God, what a pussy

What the fuck is your problem

I'VE GOT YOUR SCENT BATMAN

Why is the Arkham series the peak Batman adaptation?

Hey its the goomba from super Mario movie

I'd actually enjoy a Batman comic where he successfully and permanently reforms a villain. Or his smile and sense of humor.

I just think his origin is fucking stupid. I mean, at least explain it with an experiment gone wrong or genetic splicing, not just a nigger with bad eczema.

Oh yeah, his role in Gotham Academy was pretty cool.

I liked him better when he was King Shark.

> InB4 "Killer Croc came first!"

...yeah, but he was just a wrestler with a skin condition until BTAS and Jim Lee.

think the Goldar/Rito or Bebop/Rocksteady type relationship but with Croc and Shark

no, it's quite the reverse, actually. he quite arouses me, especially the Arkham Origins croc, god damm

I remember when he was just a strong dude with a skin contition. Good times.

If he ever went good and tried to go straight what would be a good job for him?

I could see him as a successful pro-wrestler (his backround in gator wrasslin only adds more to his persona)

I complete agree.

Y'know what? If he truly wants to go on the straight and narrow, it'd be funny to see him get a security job at Arkham or something. Work beside the guy who's hand he bit off.

he's a pretty good Batman villain.

>Batman is single-minded in his pursuit of justice
>Croc is single-minded in his pursuit of fucking murdering some people and eating them
>it's easy to out-think him
>but that doesn't necessarily mean jack because he can rip apart a car
>villains have their gimmicks
>his gimmick is that he's really goddamn dangerous

That'd probably open up a lot of fights.

And not even between Cash & Croc.

Waylon the former patient vs doctors/other patients/other guards.
Plus you know Batman will be on his ass night and day trying to threaten him until he eventually snaps and goes back to being a villain.

Well ya. Batman's an asshole and Killer Croc's life is basically just suffering.

Sounds like you want to fuck Killer Croc, OP.
