Batman Begins, made his way to
Batwoman this week as an over-the-top assassin/hitman in the service of emerging Gotham City player Safiyah (Shivaani Ghai). As played by Alex Morf, Zsasz's skin is covered with self-inflicted, flesh-covering tally marks representing all of his victims — and he's looking to drive that number up.
SYFY WIRE got on the phone with Morf, who played the similarly murderous John Healy on Netflix's
Daredevil and Sykes on Fox's
Gotham, to ask about his personal affinity for superhero stories, what he thinks motivates Zsasz's bloodthirsty ambition, and how the killer will tangle with Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) in Season 2.
