In the premiere episode of The Forgotten Files of Hugo Strange, we turn the lens inward. Not on a rogue. Not on a masked vigilante. But on the man behind the mirror, Doctor Hugo Strange himself. Long forgotten yet quietly foundational, Strange isn’t just another villain in Gotham’s orbit. He’s the one taking notes. Watching. Obsessing.

We track his strange evolution from 1940 pulp scientist to psychological predator, exploring how his quiet presence lingers in the shadows of both comics and RPG campaigns. What makes him so dangerous? Why doesn’t anyone remember him? And how can game masters use that to their advantage?

This isn’t just a character study. It’s a diagnosis.And the patient... is Gotham.

Welcome to the file. Strange is expecting you.
