Rocksteady’s Arkhamverse has always been endearing as a spin-off/successor to Bruce Timm and Paul Dini’s Batman: The Animated Series. Adopting many of its actors for their characters’ portrayals as well as the show’s excellent atmosphere, Batman: Arkham Asylum was also written by Dini. Dini would be one of the writers on Batman: Arkham City, too, but even though he didn’t help write Batman: Arkham Knight there are plain inspirations left and right throughout the trilogy that pay homage to storylines from the Caped Crusader’s most iconic animated series.
