Gotham's cast of characters, by Dustin Nguyen

Detective Comics artist Dustin Nguyen pays tribute to 28 of Gotham City’s better-known residents — he includes the Batmobile in his count — with this watercolor illustration. I want it.

    He left out Jim Gordon! The cad! :)

    On the plus side, he left out Damian.

    This is really cool. Anyone know who the little girl on Clayface’s shoulder is?

  2. Kevin Melrose Says:

    Gordon’s there: in the background, between Batman and Catwoman.

  3. Firelight Says:

    I too thought Gordon and Oracle was missing - until I saw the nifty Batgirl I and II in there. No Jason Todd, tho. Not that I’m complaining.

  4. Chris Says:

    No Huntress. No Question/Renee Montoya.

    Whose the female sitting on Clayface?

    And I never really considered Ra’s Al Ghul and Zatanna to be “residents” of Gotham City.

    I think the girl on Clayface’s shoulder was an alter ego he took for an episode of Batman: TAS. The girl befriended Robin but was eventually revealed to be a part of Clayface that was trying to split off from the main. I don’t know if that story was inspired by a comic though.

    Gorgeous.

    Can’t believe no one is bitching about Spoiler’s absence :)

    You aren’t really complaining about something an artist did in his own spare time for fun, are you?

    I thought the little girl on Clayface’s shoulder was Clayface’s daughter.
    I’m not really into batman as other people are, but I noticed that she’s coming out of Clayface, she doesnt have feet because they’re part of clayface.

    The episode is on the Batman DVD’s volume four, and called Growing Pains.
