Batman’s world within the DC universe is best known for embracing gritty, street-level elements, leading several comics to pit the hero against various powerful crimelords. Organized crime has grown in Gotham City as the years passed both in DC Comics’ publication history, and in Batman’s in-universe vigilante career.As the Dark Detective’s original antagonists, Gotham’s crimelords began in a more traditional fashion. They later evolved as the criminal element shifted toward the more over-the-top super criminals. The Falcone family was responsible for much of the city’s deprivation, but figures like Two-Face and the conspiratorial Court of Owls superseded it.As the Batman universe’s equivalent of the Corleone family from The Godfather movies, Carmine “The Roman” Falcone regulated most of the city’s criminal activity. From drug trade to human trafficking, Falcone was also shown to have Gotham’s most powerful legal and political officials deep in his pockets. This made him Batman’s most prolific early villain. A classic mobster, Carmine is one of the best examples of systemic corruption being the Caped Crusader’s original enemy.
