This Статья is dedicated in loving memory to Ed Asner, the person who voiced Roland Daggett.
Бэтмен has the best rogues gallery of any hero. Batman's adversaries are some of the most iconic baddies in all of fiction. Joker, Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler and the others have quite the fanbase. However, Бэтмен has plenty of strong villains who don't get as much attention as they deserve.
One of Batman's underrated villains is Roland Daggett. Roland Daggett wasn't a villain that was created for the comics. He was created for 1992's Batman: The Animated Series. The Animated Series used a lot of classic villains, but they also created some villains of their own. One of my personal избранное is Roland Daggett.
At first glance, Roland Daggett might not seem very special. He's not a traditional supervillain. He doesn't have an elaborate costume, nor does he have a colorful gimmick. However, Daggett proved himself to be one of the most sinister villains in Batman: The Animated Series.
Some of Batman's villains work together, but Roland Daggett is so evil that even a lot of Batman's enemies can't stand him. In Daggett's first appearance, he got Matt Hagen addicted to an untested type of face cream. This addiction led to Hagen becoming Clayface. Daggett also did some experiments involving Catwoman, which led to Catwoman having a vendetta against him.
A lot of Batman's villains are just enemies of Batman, but Daggett serves as an enemy to both Бэтмен and Bruce Wayne. Daggett runs his own company. While he makes a good amount of money, he desires more. Since Bruce Wayne is Gotham's richest businessman, Daggett goes out of his way to antagonize against Bruce. He even tried to frame Bruce for a crime.
Roland Daggett might just seem like a sneaky businessman, but he might be one of the most evil people that Batman's ever faced. Daggett's true villainy is shown in the episode Appointment In Crime Alley. In this episode, Daggett is secretly having buildings, that poor people live in, blown up. He's doing this so he can replace the buildings with things that will make him еще money. He was even willing to let the people in the buildings die if they didn't leave their homes. Thankfully, Бэтмен showed up to stop anybody from being blown up. Daggett let his henchmen take all the blame for what happened, so he could go free. Thankfully, he finally got arrested in the show's finale.
Ed Asner did a great job at voicing Daggett. He made Daggett sound professional and intimidating. He avoided making Daggett sound over-the-top, which helped disguise how evil Daggett truly was.
Although Roland Daggett was just meant to be an antagonist for Batman: The Animated Series, he ended up having another notable role. In 2012's The Dark Knight Rises, Ben Mendelsohn played John Daggett. Yes, for some reason, they changed Daggett's first name. Despite that, this version of Daggett had the same level of villainy as his cartoon counterpart. Once again, Daggett was causing trouble for Бэтмен and Catwoman, but this time, Daggett was working with Bane. Daggett was an obscure villain, so it was very cool that he got to be in a blockbuster film.
Overall, Roland Daggett might just seem like a greedy businessman, but he's one villain that Batman, Catwoman and the city of Gotham need to watch out for.
