Gotham Gains A New Citizen
Once again is Gotham gaining a new citizen, which this time around is a new character named Joe Pike, who is “the leader of a notorious gang of arsonist known as the Pike Brothers.” The character will be portrayed by the actor Leo Fitzpatrick according to Deadline. The actor will be known by many as Telly in the film Kids and has also had roles in The Wire, My Name is Earl and Carnivale.[1]
While not much information
is given on the character except that it was specifically created for this
show, but it does make one wonder if this character might be a prototype for
the Batman villain known as Firefly. The character was most family known as Garfield
Lynns, but could potentially be the gang that got him into his pyromaniac ways.
