Even though hes just a cop in the Arkham Knight video game, I like Aaron Cash and his connection to Killer Croc.

[QUOTE=exile001;277027]Her picture was on what seemed to be a memorial wall in GCPD in an early Batwoman issue. Hopefully, this can be ignored.[/QUOTE]
It wasn't a memorial wall, just a photo wall.

Bock, Sawyer, Gordon... Those created for Batman comics, or like Bullock and Montoya ported in from cartoons or other comics... Who's had the best showings, who grabs you, who do you really not miss at all?[/QUOTE]By the way, if by "Sawyer" we're talking Maggie Sawyer, she wasn't originally a Gotham City cop.
She was first on the force in Metropolis, as seen in her original appearance in [B]Superman #4[/B] (April 1987):

[QUOTE=teej;273225]I liked Shotgun Smith quite a bit. The toughest cop in Gotham, preceding Bullock by a couple of years, had a pretty interesting backstory and made a good supporting character when Dixon brought him back in the Robin series.
I think I remember Rucka using him in an issue during his first 'Tec run.[/QUOTE]It looks like that may have been in issue #755 (April 2001) during Jim Gordon's Retirement Dinner?

I miss Sasha so much...I know she's not a cop, and that she's technically back from Rucka's Wonder Woman run, but...she was such a great character.

Gordon. I love him so much.
Sarah Essen-Gordon. I still hate Joker for what he did.
Montoya - I love her as both Question and cop.
I liked Romy and the rest of the Gotham Central crew, too. Akins was okay, but he's too associated with War Games for me to love him.
It's funny that this thread was started during Batman Eternal, and so many cops have come back since then...
Lt. [B]Stan Kitch[/B] was a member of the GCPD back in the 1990s.

It looks like his first appearance may have been in [B]Detective Comics #596[/B] (January, 1989).
