Taking place after the events of Batman Forever, but reminiscent in style to the Tim Burton Batman films, Batman: Revenge returns viewers to Gotham City in this brick-built fan film. Made in 2003, several years before the official LEGO Batman line, numerous custom sets, vehicles, and other creations were built for its production.
At the close of Batman Forever, the Riddler became more insane than ever. This diagnosis, along with his technical expertise from that film, served as the springboard for Batman: Revenge. The question-marked villain escapes from Arkham Asylum with the purpose of revenge against the Dark Knight and Gotham City, placing one of Batman's closest allies in jeopardy. The end of the film presents what may be Nygma's greatest riddle of all.
Rated E for EVERYONE by BatmanFanFilms. An Independefilms award-winning film, the production was featured in BrickJournal, Fan Films Quarterly, TheForce.Net, among other publications within interviews and articles.
