3 New LEGO Batman Characters Announced Written Thursday, June 12, 2008 by Dan Webb Seeing the success of the recent LEGO games (Star Wars and Indiana Jones) you can't help but think the upcoming LEGO Batman title, published by Warner Brothers is going to follow suit. Slowly, we've seen more and more characters as the weeks go by and today is no different. We have just received information on three new LEGO Batman characters; Nightwing, Clayface and Bane. However this time, they aren't all enemies, Nightwing is one of the good guys and will be one of Batman and Robin's crime fighting allies. Yippee.

He donned the mask of the film’s villain, Clayface, and killed several of the remake’s cast and crew before being stopped by Batman and Robin. Later, Karlo joined a collection of villains who subsequently used the name Clayface in an alliance that came to be known as the Mud Pack.
