from the perspective of the hero Batman. in the form of diary entries. Batman works undercover as a janitor in a villain academy to find out more. Because the villain academy is amazingly efficient. and is bringing out more and more young villains with success.
the founder and director of the academy is the villain Dr. Hugo Strange,
for the time being Batman is only collecting information.
The success is based above all on understanding the circumstances of the students, who know the characters – all former hardcore villains – from their own past and therefore show a lot of sympathy for the aspiring villains, which have been let down by the system. Street children are even given priority, and they often even get a decent meal here for the first time in their lives.

Batman’s Diary
Day 1:
The stench of bleach and disinfectant is overpowering, but it’s a familiar comfort compared to the suffocating air of suspicion in this place. They call it the “Villain Academy.” The irony is sickening. A gleaming, modern building, a stark contrast to the crumbling facades of Gotham’s forgotten corners. Dr. Strange’s vision – a “rehabilitation” center for the city’s outcasts. The facade is almost too perfect, too clean. The students here, however, are anything but. A kaleidoscope of broken faces, each with a story of betrayal, neglect, or simply a yearning for power. A sense of foreboding clings to them, a dark ember in the eyes. I’m just another nameless face here, “Mr. Thomas,” the janitor, unnoticed and unobserved. I’ve been assigned to the basement, a labyrinth of forgotten classrooms and storage units. My mission: infiltrate, observe, understand.
Day 3:
Heard whispers of a “Professor Joker.” The students tremble at his name, a combination of fear and morbid fascination. He’s not just teaching them chaos; he’s teaching them to exploit the chaos within society, the vulnerability of the system. He sees their pain, their anger, and instead of offering a solution, he feeds the flames. He paints them as victims, and they embrace the role with a disturbing hunger. Bane, the muscle, is a brutal force, but he’s surprisingly disciplined. He teaches combat, but more importantly, he instills a sense of control, of power, that these kids crave. Harley Quinn, the therapist, is more unsettling. Her methods are unconventional, bordering on the perverse. She delves into the darkness within each student, not to heal, but to nurture. She fuels their resentment, twisting their wounds into weapons. It’s a twisted form of therapy, a breeding ground for monsters.
Day 7:
Today, I witnessed a “graduation” ceremony. Dr. Strange, the puppet master, stood on a podium, exuding an aura of controlled power. His speech was a symphony of manipulation, a siren call to chaos. He spoke of a broken system, a corrupt world, a world that needed to be broken and remade. The students, eyes blazing with newfound confidence, listened intently. Their hands, once trembling, now clenched with a venomous resolve. This isn’t rehabilitation. This is the creation of a new generation of villains, a generation that believes they are entitled to their anger, their pain, their chaos.
Day 14:
Found a hidden document in the basement – a list of donors, their names masked by codenames. “The Serpent,” “The Crow,” “The Knight of Shadows,” The last one chills me to the bone. It’s too early to know if they are connected to this academy, but it’s a dangerous thought. The reach of this operation is far greater than I imagined. The system is riddled with corruption, and Dr. Strange is exploiting it for his own twisted agenda. The Justice League needs to know. I will contact them tonight.
Day 15:
The contact is made. The information is passed. Now the waiting game begins. The fight ahead is not a fight against villains, it’s a fight against an ideology, a fight against the darkness that festers in the hearts of the forgotten. I am the shadow in the corner, the silent observer, the unseen protector. I am Batman. And I will not let these children become another generation of monsters.
