Who is Mister Zsasz?

A denizen of Gotham's darkest corners, Mister Zsasz has haunted DC Comics since his 1996 debut in Hitman #2, brought to life by the sharp creative team of Garth Ennis and John McCrea. Over a quarter-century of appearances, this Modern Age villain has kept some of the most iconic company the DC Universe has to offer — sharing pages with Batman, Robin, Bruce Wayne, and the duality-obsessed Harvey Dent/Two-Face. His strongest footprint falls across the Batman: Arkham tie-in titles and Future State: The Next Batman, cementing him as a fixture of Gotham's rogues' gallery across multiple eras of storytelling. With 25 years of appearances and a place in some of Batman's most atmospheric corners, Zsasz is a name any serious Bat-fan will want on their radar.
