The important nemesis of the Dark Knight might make a comeback

The next Batman game that's currently being teased and leaked all over the place might actually focus on the villain Hush, one of the most impressive rivals of the Dark Knight, at least according to a new hint from Warner Bros.

The first two Batman Arkham titles, Asylum and City, were made by UK-based developer Rocksteady, but last year's Arkham Origins was created by Warner Bros. Montreal, presumably to let the founding studio finish its own new entry in the series.

It seems that the reveal might be made soon, according to recent leaks, and now a new teaser statement has appeared from the Batman: Hush Facebook page that's administered by Warner Bros.

A brand new image with the villain Hush as he appeared in Batman: Arkham City was uploaded, alongside the caption: "Remember a little appearance by somebody in Arkham City? Well things may be about to get more interesting next month..."

It's unclear if the reference is made to the next Batman game or to a new series of comic books that center on Hush and his rivalry with Batman.

For fans who aren't up to date with the villain, he is one of Batman's few childhood buddies, a brilliant surgeon who can out-think practically anyone in the comic book universe and, thanks to his self-surgery, can alter his appearance to look like different individuals, including Bruce Wayne.
