The Arkham Asylum That Could Have Been

Originally published at The Pandemonium Project. You can comment here or there.

As you know, I’m a huge Joker/Harley Quinn nut. This is a collection of some character designs that were (largely) scrapped before the final release of Arkham Asylum, and it’s a shame, because some of them are really good.

I love the center model. It’s updated and cool without losing the essential harlequin flavor.

“Mick Jagger/David Bowie body and clothing with Crispin Glover’s stretched face.” I’ve never heard it described that way, but I can’t argue. I think we may have stumbled upon the reason Crispin Glover never smiles.

If they had used the middle image, I’d be cosplaying her right now as I write this. Life is not fair.

They’re all excellent. Here’s the rest of the collection.

I think you could pull off Ivy quite easily regardless. I bet they didn't want to have a game with girls in panties... as a Batman game would be okay to snap bones all over the place but a pair of panties would be over the top.
