Ask Batman: His Greatest Enemy

Requested by :icongamerbro014:.

Batman is asked which of his enemies is the greatest of them all.

The Dark Knight replies that he has actually quite a lot of dangerous and formidable adversaries.

As examples, he mentions that Bane broke his back, the Mud Pack is composed of four villains that have all taken the name Clayface (Basil Karlo, Matt Hagen, Preston Payne, and Sondra Fuller, also called "Lady Clay"), Ra's Al Ghul for his warped idea that killing off most of humanity will make the world a better place, and the fact that Catwoman almost always gets away.

The Caped Crusader concludes in the end that the greatest felon he's ever faced is none other than the Clown Prince of Crime, the Harlequin of Hate, the Joker.

Batman considers the Joker is worst foe because he's hurt many people close to him and never stays dead.

Rather hauntingly, Batman also mentions that the Joker's continued returns make him feel sorely tempted to make the green-haired and ever-smiling lunatic an exception to his "never kill" policy.

I had a lot of fun making this, not only because Batman is the first comic book character someone gave me a question to answer for, but also because Batman has always been one of my favorite heroes.

I grew up watching Batman: The Animated Series as a kid alongside other installments of the DCAU, but I am also pretty fond of The Batman, Beware the Batman, and even Batman: The Brave and the Bold, which I am currently trying to catch up on (as of this submission, I've seen the episode "The Mask of Matches Malone". All I have left to catch up on are the remainder of Season Two and Season Three).

In fact, that one episode of TBATB gives me an interesting idea for a picture involving the Birds of Prey. Stay tuned!
