The Crimson Knight was an enemy of Batman.

Richard "Dick" Lyons was a crimelord who posed as a masked vigilante called the Crimson Knight in order to gain the Gotham City Police Department's trust. Lyons often helped Batman and Robin to earn their trust as well, but the Dynamic Duo were always suspicious of the new "crime fighter". Eventually, Batman and Robin confronted the Crimson Knight as he tried to steal some valuable objects and learned his secret identity as the crimelord Lyons, who was captured and his criminal career was ended.

Even though other versions of the character may have appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
