The Brave, the Bold, and the Unknown

In the recent issue of Batman: The Brave and the Bold Vol. 2 #2 Part 4, writer/artist Joëlle Jones packed in over forty flashbacks/references in a mere three pages, most of which were generic images that could be linked to any number of places in Batman’s past. However, some were to very specific items—Bane breaking Batman’s spine, Joker’s “Endgame,” and Batman vs Predator. There were a couple of items that were very specific but I had trouble ascertaining what they were exactly. Anyone have any ideas?

First off, I added this bird to a Penguin flashback, but could this be something more specific?


Second, we have a dragon/dinosaur-like creature. I’ve guessed this is one of DC’s more famous dragons, Drakul Karfang. But is it something else?


Third, we have a top hat-wearing villain with an ornate jacket. It looks like Tally Man, right? Or could it be someone else?


Fourth is this image, of which I can make no guess whatsoever. Thoughts?


And last but not least, this image of a female character with diamonds over her eyes. (I had to rotate and stretch this image to make it out at all.) I don’t know who this is. Do you?

    The “Tally Man” and the woman read like Mad Hatter and Huntress to me.

    That dragon / reptile seems more likely to be Killer Croc.
