Heavily modified version of this excellent idea from Drew Knapp, with as many prime characters from the comic lore as fits the scheme. https://infinite.tcgplayer.com/article/Become-the-Dark-Knight-With-this-MTG-Commander-Batman-Theme-Deck/e01f8693-bbce-4ea8-9192-aa2e297feb97/

Can't find a fault with his reasoning The Dark Knight's color qualities, nor Bane's impact on the legend; its a perfect fit. The others listed in this gallery represent Citizens of Gotham, a greater expansion on abilities + prime Tribal synergy for some of the better tempo/endgame build-up.
