[shadow=green,left,300]LoG is the first site to bring you advanced pics of the episode Q and A and the very first look at the Cluemaster! You can even watch a video clip! www.legionsofgotham.org/BatmanEpisodes8The design for this character is actually taken directly from Matsuda's original Riddler concept. The midgets go inside the numbered pockets on the oogie boogie looking Cluemaster. Cluemaster is shown below! Enjoy![/shadow]

Oookayyy I am happy that Riddler hasn't get this design But it looks really funny. Could it be that the Cluemaster is more a fun charakter and also his episodes? Then I think the design is okay.

Yeah, that's what I heard Riddler was gonna look like a while back, I was so relieved when I saw the actal riddler design.
Don't get me wrong, I don't hate it, but a fat blob guy is just not Riddler

This is strange. I'll wait until next weekend... the clip wasn't much to satisfy me. The design, though, that's awesome.

I thought that was Marvel's "The Blob" and not the Cluemaster, lol. I'm not impressed with this design, but I'll admit that the character looks no less ridiculous than DC's original design. www.angelfire.com/ar/hellUSA/Cluemaster.htmlI don't think that this version will ever "hook up" to father the Spoiler though, unless he goes on a severe diet. ;D ~Tim

He looks pretty cool to me, I have never actually seen Clue Master in the comics, so I will pass judgement next episode, when I see him in action.

Whatever. . . I never much cared for the character of Cluemaster anyway, so I'm glad they used this "Blob"-type design on him, and not on The Riddler.
Should be interesting to see the take on him next week, though.

when you think about it they had to make him visually distinctive so it kinda works for me Riddler = on the verge of rigamortis thin Cluemaster = on the verge of a massive coronary fat its a strange world you have created matsuda

Meh, I love all of the other The Batman designs, and this one is okay, but not quite what I was expecting. He looks like an extremely chubby, flourescent colored executionist. Hah, at least he looks like he can handle Bats. Should be an interesting episode however...

The Clue Master actually looks a bit like Jugger Naut! Is Wolverine going to be showing up to engage in battle with him?
I don't like the look of The Clue Master, maybe after watching the episode it might make sense. I wonder if we might see a itty bitty, baby Stephanie?

Cluemaster and Riddler, IMO, are the 2 worst designs so far.

[shadow=green,left,300]Ok..now I understand if you didn't like the Riddler design..he's a character many of you like...but NO ONE here likes Cluemaster...everyone complained he was even being used in the show....so how can you have a solid dislke of the design? How can you honestly even care. lol. I think he looks interesting and fun. and like I've been telling you...this ep is supposed to be fun. even the fans on ToonZone like it! forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?t=126522I stayed up an extra hour this morning coming off the overnight shift to bring ya these pics! You'd better straighten up ;D[/shadow]

Thats what Cluemaster looked like in the comic book? Wow, what a goofy looking character. I wonder why they chose to do an episode about him? Oh well, I hope it turns out to be good.

[glow=red,2,300]Whoa did cluemaster win Willy Wonka factory and eat all the candy and turn the Umpa Lumpas evil. This looks hillarious. I love all the other designs but this one doesn't impress me so much (i hope the ep. is as fun as you said matt). Ahh well i'll give it a chance next saturday. And as always thanks matt for these pics, it is great to see the Umpa Lumpas back on TV. P.S. i read on comicscontinium that the ep. was released from wb as "The Big Dummy". Is there truth in this? [/glow]

Do you think we'll see a figure of him along the way?

How can you honestly even care. lol. [/shadow] Sorry Matt. While I do appreciate the effort you put into the screen caps and scoops you always bring us I still don't dig this design. I mean, sure Cluemaster is a lame 3rd rate villain, but I care for the same reason that I care when the histories & looks of the other Batman villains are re-written and changed severely... I was wanting a Batman cartoon more than a Batman Elseworld's cartoon. I'd really like to see the characters that I’ve read about all these years and that I love (and in this case characters that I don't love) brought to life. This isn't doing that as much as it is "re-inventing" the characters. I understand that no matter how much we'd like it to be, this show is not being made for us, the older fans. I do wish though that even though the show had been made for younger people, that they would have taken the opportunity to present most of the characters in at least a semblance of the people that they were supposed to represent and present some of the original stories that have become fond and familiar to us. I personally believe that if the characters were not great to begin with, that they would not have withstood the test of time that have brought them this far to merit a series. Overall, the show is what it is. I don't think it's great, but maybe it will bring around interest in some younger viewers that will progress to them wanting to know what Batman is really all about. In a few years, these will be the Batman fans that will start reading the comics and learning about the characters and who they are. These young people will be the next generation of Batman fans and keep the hero alive...if the show can at least do that, then it's worth something. Anyway, sorry for the long-winded rant, but again Matt, I meant no disrespect to you, as I think you do a fantastic job updating us and bringing us info that we get form no other sources, but I've just never been a fan of "re-imagining" something that has proven the test of time. ~Tim
