    He is the creature that haunts Slaughter Swamp, on the outskirts of Gotham City. Once a wealthy man named Cyrus Gold, he was killed and his body disposed of in the swamp. Reanimated by the forces of nature, Grundy emerged with sparse memories, limited intelligence and incredible strength. Falling in with gangsters, he helped them go on a crime spree before ultimately being stopped by the Green Lantern. Afterwards, Grundy became a regular foe of Batman. Join www.WatchMojo.com as we explore the origins of Solomon Grundy.

    Solomon Grundy. Born on a Monday, christened on Tuesday, married on Wednesday, took ill on Thursday, grew worse on Friday, died on Saturday, buried on a Sunday. And that was the end of Solomon Grundy.
    Had to throw in the story to go with the superpowered zombie.

      @@josephchavez1489 Zombies are a big part of Haitian mythology and it's their place of origin. Though mythology isn't a completely right word since zombies started as real people drugged into serving their bokor ("necromancer"). From that derives the myth of zombies being walking dead who do their master's bidding.

    Solomon Grundy is at once one of the most silly DC villains and one of the most interesting.
    His powers vary tremendously every time he gets resurrected from Slaughter Swamp.
    Usually, he's dim-witted but huge and powerful. But sometimes, he's much less powerful, slender, but is downright cunning and patient. Which makes him even more dangerous.
    Sometimes Batman can take him down, but rarely they've shown him fighting toe to toe with Superman. I actually like the fact that the DC heroes don't know what to expect from his next manifestation when he once again returns from the swamp.

      The Hulk is another obvious ripoff, so-much-so that the Hulk was originally-- you guessed it, "GRAY" colored and sporting Grundy's "torn clothing and unintelligible dialect." No way to dispute this, you can't change history or Marvel's extensive pattern of underhanded stealing.

    Every time Grundy is "killed" his body is regenerated at the swamp. Every time he regenerates, his power and his personality are different from before. Sometimes he's weaker, sometimes he's stronger. Sometimes he's dumb as a rock, other times he's quite intelligent. Also, every time he comes back, he has no memory of his previous life, so he doesn't know who anybody is.

    A fight between the two would be titanic, and probably devastating to whatever city it took place in. Hulk couldn't hurt Grundy physically, as you can't harm that which does not feel. It would probably end with an agitated Hulk throwing his opponent across several States. Grundy would eventually land, rise, and shamble off in some random direction.

    Bill Finger is credited with naming Gotham City
    Bill Finger also co-created Green Lantern, who first appeared in All American Comics #16, which was published in July of 1940.
    Therefore it is highly likely that Green Lantern (Alan Scott) was Gotham's protector before Batman, simply because the city wasn't named in Batman comics until after Green Lantern appeared.

    I like how comic companies "borrow" from or get "inspired" by each other's characters. LoL.
    Grundy should be more popular since he was made 1st & zombies are hot right now.
    But Hulk has more personality.
    Hopefully Grundy will be in the JL movie....being a Hulk-like villain powerhouse that requires the team to combine forces & use tactics to defeat him.
    I like the idea of Grundy being stronger than Superman (like he was in the JL episode "Wake the Dead") but Supes having other abilities (like flight, super speed, heat-vision & ice breath) to help him out.

      @MoCa1979Jr 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Nhat Lam NGUYEN I was actually excluding Banner, but you are right that gives him even more personality now that I come to think of it.
      Well, Marvel/Disney has more recently given Hulk more of a personality actually. I think this happened most recently after the PLANET/WORLD WAR HULK stories. And the Avengers movies has helped flesh out his character more & made him more popular.
      He has better catch phases like: "Hulk Smash", "the madder Hulk gets the stronger Hulk ges", "puny (insert name or species", as well as "hulk is strongest there is".
      Yes, good idea, but I was thinking Grundy should rampage & be stopped by the JL efforts. At the end of the 1st movie, there should be an end scene where Lex is shown waiting at the edge of the swamp as Grundy revives & then Lex should offer him a spot on
      the LEGION OF DOOM (the team for the next movie).

      I loved that JL ep entitled "Wake the Dead" where Grundy was supercharged with chaos magic. That's what I want to see happen. Then @ the end he's revived with his normal power levels (hopefully as strong, if not stronger than Supes). Lex should be like Marvel's Nick Fury @ the ends of DC's movies & recruits villains for his Legion of Doom.

    • @jackdullboy8723

      Maybe it was just in the Arkam-verse but I heard he was reanimated because the swamp water contained traces of the Lazarus Pit which another Batman villain, Ra's Al Ghul uses to keep himself young but with Solomon Grundy it fused with him making him practically immortal. The strength thing is unexplained but could be chalked up to a mutation when he was reanimated.
