Awkward Batman #26

At this point I feel like the Joker speaks for all of us.

 

Awkward Batman #25

One thing I've noticed about Batman's villains is that they're often more sympathetic than their wealthy vigilante opponent. In particular, the Scarecrow really speaks to me in this case.

And here's one to remind you not to forget me! [PUNCH] And here's one so you won't not forget to not remember me! [PUNCH] And here's one so you won't not remember to not forget me! [PUNCH] And here's one so ... oh dude, are you dead?

 

Awkward Batman #23

Eh, I’ve had worse bosses. 

 

Besides, this guy spent the whole story ending every sentence with “See” like some crappy Edward G. Robinson ripoff, so honestly he has it coming.

Another multiple choice question. Which of the following is the best caption for this panel?

 

A. "Robin hits the bad guys with an oar."

 

B. Trick question. As this is obviously a picture of Robin hitting the bad guys with an oar, no caption is needed.

 

C. This:

This one isn’t particularly hilarious. I'm just posting it in the hope that “splub” can somehow make its way into common usage.

I feel like any attempt to provide context would diminish the experience.

Awkward Batman #19

In context, gangsters have taken over the town and replaced the real cops. Still ...

Our second motto is “never be helpful to those who don’t need help.”

Our third motto is “exercise caution when determining who does and doesn’t need help.”

And honestly, that’s just the tip of the iceberg here. 

Be a “Robin Regular” by being regular?

Nationalism?

Awkward Batman #17

So like what? A dentist? An accountant? An interior decorator? An elementary school teacher with some thoughts on how to punctuate sentences?

 

Awkward Batman #16

So Batman intends to kidnap the Joker and have him lobotomized? Honestly sometimes I wonder about the distinctions between heroes and villains.

 

 PS: Slugs and snails are after me. DDT keeps me happy. I guess now it's time to tell 'em that I've got no cerebellum.

Awkward Batman #15

As someone who’s spent most of his life in academe in one way or another, I can assure you that there’s absolutely no such thing as “too boring to get tenure.”

Awkward Batman #14

Not a cigar. Also probably not a bong.

Awkward Batman #13

One convention down, one to go.

Awkward Batman #12

Did Batman just make a poop joke?

Awkward Batman #11

This is:

A. Completely unnecessary dialogue

B. A completely unnecessary caption

C. Both A and B

 

Awkward Batman #10

Be careful, Weasel. If you keep talking nonsense like that, you might end up as President of the United States.

Awkward Batman #9

So had Bob Kane seriously never seen a picture of a wolf? That looks more like the Monk is turning into a were-wolverine.

 

Awkward Batman #8

This is the first time in the story that anyone mentioned vampires, so I feel like Occam's razor might have steered me in another direction. In Batman's defense, he turns out to be right.

 

Awkward Batman #7

Batman never goes back for this guy. I imagine his skeleton still perched up there 80 years later.
