Biography
The comic Arkham Unhinged later added to his background. The Joker, seeing that they would be better separated, gases them and has Dr. Elliot separate them. He keeps Hammer because he wanted a "Right Hand Man" and ordered Harley to dispose of Sickle in the bay. Harley, at the last moment, decided to drop Sickle at the Penguin's HQ as a present who he later proceeded to employ into his ranks. Sickle has had a dislike for Joker ever since they they were separated.
Batman: Arkham City
Sickle first appears in the Cyrus Pinkney Institute for Natural History, in the Gladiator Room right after Officer Best is shot by the Penguin. Sickle holds Officer Forrester by the neck while Penguin addresses Batman and starts the "initiation". Sickle, Penguin and the other henchmen leave Batman to die.
Batman survives, and follows Penguin. Sickle has separated from his leader at this stage. He appears once more in the War Room. As Batman attempts to rescue Mr. Freeze, Sickle bursts through a wall with a number of henchmen, they fight with Batman, who once again triumphs, knocking them all unconscious.
Sickle is last seen reconciling with his brother, Mister Hammer, and talking to him in the Steel Mill. They consider getting stitched together so they can be together again.
Trivia
- Sickle has "✰" tatoo, showing that he has origins from Russia. Also his brother, Mister Hammer wields a large sledgehammer. Sickle himself wields a large sickle. Hammer + Sickle = ☭.
- Sickle is seen in the "Joker's Carnival" challenge map, along with Mister Hammer.
- He needs 50 hits to take him down, as does his brother. If you do so uninterrupted you can get the 50X achievement by fighting him alone.
- The fact that his brother wields a hammer, and he a sickle, is a reference to the Soviet flag, which has a hammer and a sickle crossing it. This is a reference to how the two are Russian.
