Whether it's the first season, or the fifth, we're hoping that Gotham is that much of a success it's going to be able to explore the origins of many characters from the DC Universe, including some of our favourites which we've listed below.

Dinah's Black Canary

The Black Canary seen in DC Comics is usually the daughter of Dinah Drake/Lance, but what many people don't realise is that Dinah herself was the original Black Canary, and her daughter only assumed her costume, identity and legacy in later life.

Firefly

Though two villains have been named Firefly, it's the formerly rich one that we're interested in seeing, who gambled away his family's entire fortune and turned to crime before becoming an arsonist and lover of all things fiery.

Harley Quinn

This girl's just begging to be brought to life - Harleen Quinzel, the Arkham psychiatrist who eventually falls in love with the Joker and is led into a life of crime because of her passion.

Killer Croc

Born with a genetic mutation, Waylon Jones became a circus wrestler because of his strange appearance including reptile's skin, sharp claws and scary looking teeth before rising to conquer the Gotham Mob.

Mr. Freeze

We'd love to see the humble beginnings of Dr. Victor Fries, before his wife became terminally ill and he devoted his life to saving her and getting a cure, leading to his boss Ferris Boyle attacking him and exposing him to some of his very own chemicals, birthing Mr. Freeze.

Gotham starts on FOX this fall in America, and a UK broadcaster is expected to be announced soon.
