Gotham's Ultimate Criminal Mastermind (2006)

Richard Green: Professor Hugo Strange

Quotes 

• Batman : Strange.

  Professor Hugo Strange : Ah, the Dark Knight returns.

  Batman : D.A.V.E.'s escape wasn't a glitch, wasn't it, professor?

  Professor Hugo Strange : You don't mean to say that I deliberately unleashed Gotham's Ultimate Criminal Mastermind?

  Batman : I am saying you might find Arkham a better home than office.

  Professor Hugo Strange : The line between genius and insanity is often blurred. Ha!

  [Professor Strange wields a blaster. Batman pins him down and sees Strange's fan collection of him] 

  Batman : Didn't know you were such a fan.

  Professor Hugo Strange : Your obsession with criminals fascinates me as much as the criminals themselves.

  Batman : Shut down D.A.V.E., now.

  Professor Hugo Strange : I might have created D.A.V.E., Batman, but I no longer control him.

  Batman : Then tell me how to stop him.

  Professor Hugo Strange : You can't. You see, he was designed to stop you. D.A.V.E. enacted his crimes in order to bait you into encounters, in order to study you.

  Batman : And why would he want to study me?

  Professor Hugo Strange : Because I also programmed my psychology into D.A.V.E.'s brain. D.A.V.E. shares my fascination with you, Batman, and right now, has learned all there is to know about you.
