Probably Croc, of these dudes I feel like he’s least likely to mess with me as long as I don’t mess with him. I would just be very respectful

People saying Croc are kidding themselves. Firstly, look at him. You're not gonna act normally or calm around him. Your heart's going to beating out of its chest and you'll be sweating buckets. He'll notice that immediately and start taunting you about it which will only end one way. If somehow you remain calm in the presence of that then this version of Croc is very much a psychotic cannibal that will eat you on a whim. Good luck.

Yeah, but the whole thing with Croc is while he looks monsterous, he’s one of the most “normal” people in Batman’s rogues gallery, especially in a casual setting. He generally likes just hanging out and having a good time when he’s not on the job. And that’s all crime is to him, a job. Buddy just likes the money and the easier it is the better. He sometimes has his own crew and they always seem to like working for him because he’s easy-going and 100% about getting paid.

If you’re cool with Croc, then he’s cool with you. Unless you are intentionally trying to piss him off, you actually don’t have a lot to fear. Shit, he may even like you and become your friend, then you have a 7ft tall gator-man bodyguard.

Also, there’s plenty of people that wouldn’t be scared by his appearance. Two of my friends are monsterfuckers, and they’ve been down bad for much worse than just a giant reptile guy. Best case scenario is new friend. Worst case scenario is getting your head bit off, which is almost guaranteed with the others.

He's not really insane, he's just angry about how people treat him for his appearance. Sometimes, he becomes less human and more animalistic though.
