Mad Hatter

Mad Hatter, or Jervis Tetch, is a super-villain and enemy of . He often works as a thief, obsessed with stealing hats to finish his collection of headwear for his mind-control technology.
== Description ==
Mad Hatter has a large, green top-hat with a darker green band going around the funnel. A yellow tag sticks up from under the band. In the first LEGO Batman game it reads 10/6, but this detail was removed for LEGO Batman 2. He has, long, slanted, light orange-brown eyebrows and buck teeth. He wears a green coat which opens more as the torso goes downwards, first revealing the top of a white, button-up shirt, then a large, red-bow tie, and finally a vest checkered with two different shades of purple. He has yellow gloves and orange pants.
On the Nintendo DS version of LEGO Batman: The Videogame, the Mad Hatter has short legs (which shows his pants at the bottom of his torso), a blue band around his hat rather than dark green, no gloves, and had a different face.
In LEGO Batman: The Videogame, the Mad Hatter is a boss and a playable character. He carries a small handgun, can double jump (due to a propeller built into his hat), and use mind control on certain targets or to open certain doors. He is unlockable for purchase after the level, The Joker's Home Turf.
He also has two unlockable playable vehicles, Mad Hatter's Steamboat and Mad Hatter's Glider. Other than roam around in their respective environments, water and sky, and in the glider's case, shoot lasers, they have no abilities.
On the Nintendo DS version, he is able to go through chutes and drop bombs to destroy black and red objects. (In the ds version there are no silver objects and instead they are red and black)
In LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, both of these abilities are removed. He now uses just a melee attack and can jump no higher than Batman.
== Background ==
Jervis Tetch became obsessed with the lunacy of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking Glass, especially the chapter A Mad Tea Party, to the point where he believed himself to be a reincarnation of a character known as The Mad Hatter. Jervis Tetch became a thief known as Mad Hatter to finish his collection of headgear. He is also known for his hypnotizing and kidnapping schemes.
=== In the Video Games ===
In the video game's story, the Mad Hatter was a part of the Joker's group, which also consisted of Killer Moth, the Scarecrow, and Harley Quinn. Mad Hatter traveled to the factory where The Red Hood transformed into The Joker to retrieve special chemicals for The Joker. While investigating, Batman and Robin came across and defeated The Mad Hatter. He was sent back to Arkham Asylum, along with Scarecrow, Killer Moth, Harley Quinn and the Joker.
