Onomatopoeia is confirmed to appear in the DC animated series.
The first full trailer for Batman: Caped Crusader arrived on Wednesday, showcasing Prime Video 's new take on the world of DC's comics. The animated series, which is executive produced by Bruce Timm, Matt Reeves, and J.J. Abrams, already boasts an impressive ensemble cast and a unique aesthetic for Batman's early days.
Midway through the Caped Crusader trailer, a fedora-wearing figure with an all-black costume and a white target over his face is shown, and can be heard saying the phrase"Bam." Outside of the hat, this costume is identical to that worn by DC's Onomatopoeia. Who Is Onomatopoeia?Created by Kevin Smith and Phil Hester in 2002's Green Arrow #12, Onomatopoeia is an otherwise-unnamed serial killer who targets superheroes without actual superpowers. As his name suggests, Onomatopoeia literally expresses the sound effects of the noises heard while he commits his kills, which adds a chilling layer to his assassinations.
Considering the noir-ish tone of Caped Crusader, it will be interesting to see if the Baphomet storyline carries over into the series, or if Onomatopoeia's involvement will be much more straightforward. The character has already been very loosely adapted into television, with Peia Mannheim, the wife of Bruno Mannheim, donning the mantle in the third season of Superman & Lois.
What Is Batman: Caped Crusader About?In Batman: Caped Crusader, welcome to Gotham City, where the corrupt outnumber the good, criminals run rampant and law-abiding citizens live in a constant state of fear. Forged in the fire of tragedy, wealthy socialite Bruce Wayne becomes something both more and less than human—the BATMAN. His one-man crusade for justice attracts unexpected allies within the GCPD and City Hall, but his heroic actions spawn deadly, unforeseen ramifications.
