7. Clock King
William Tockman is the bomb. Like, I love him embarrassingly much. But the version I love is unfortunately the Batman: The Animated Series version, not the actual DCU version. The DCU version is much lamer.
This William Tockman was told he only had six months to live, so he decided to use that time to be a criminal so he could get the money he needed to take care of his ailing sister. So, think Walter White, if he decided that rather than cook meth, he'd prefer to dress up in a clock themed outfit and try to rob banks. As much as I liked Breaking Bad, I probably would've liked it a heck of a lot more if THAT was the premise. Tockman got knocked the eff out by Green Arrow and Speedy, and was locked up.
In prison, he learned that, oops, turns out his doctor screwed up his charts and he wasn't dying. Oh and, double oops, Tockman's sister died while he was in prison. Tockman blamed Green Arrow for all this, instead of either himself or his doctor (seriously, pick one, both are at fault), and went right back to his criminal activities.
I mean, he COULD have sued his doctor for malpractice and emotional distress, but why make a ton of money when you can put on a clock suit and get punched in the mouth by Batman?
