At time of this publication, I have yet to watch THE BATMAN ("criminal", ikr), so cannot really say of THIS character'll be suitable or welcomed as a "spin-off" (the first one too), which frankly intrigued me more than a (cliched) "JOKER" ... perhaps they are trying to build up Bat's Rogues Gallery this time around, rather than just depend on the Clown Price of Crime to be the only nemesis? How many incarnations can the same Batman fight? :p
