10 Best Batman Scenes You Probably Didn’t Know Existed

:0:1

Summary

Batman's adventures extend beyond live-action films, with podcasts like "Harley Quinn and The Joker: Sound Mind" featuring scenes of the Joker kidnapping a school bus full of children.
In the audio drama "The Riddler: Secrets In The Dark," Riddler teams up with Batman to take down the murderous vigilante Azrael, using his powers of suggestion to convince Azrael to set himself on fire.
Deleted scenes from movies like "Batman Forever" and "The Dark Knight Rises" reveal interesting moments, such as Batman hallucinating a giant bat and Bane demonstrating his combat skills as a trainee in The League of Shadows.

Perhaps DC's single most well-represented character, Batman and his associated villains have been in so many stories that some scenes are bound to escape the eyes and ears of even the most dedicated audiences. Batman has been placed in nearly every situation under the sun, spanning a wide range of media. As a result, some of the best, most curious, or downright strange scenes have escaped the watchful gaze of much of his fandom.
Batman stories come in many different forms, with several notable scenes hidden away as filmed content left on the chopping room floor in Batman's many live-action films. Others lie in less popular forms of superhero media, nevertheless rife with installments featuring the Caped Crusader, such as podcasts and books. No matter the source, after so many years, Bob Kane and Bill Finger's iconic characters and the world of Gotham have gone through a lot that most general audiences might not even be aware of.

10 The Joker Kidnaps A Bus Full Of School Children Harley Quinn and The Joker: Sound Mind, 2023

Podcasts have become increasingly popular as a flexible entertainment format that audiences can enjoy on the go. Be it far from the Batman franchise to miss out on such a rife opportunity for an audience, Gotham City has become a popular setting for a slew of podcasts. Not only that, but Batman isn't even necessarily the focus of all of them, such as 2023's Harley Quinn and The Joker: Sound Mind.
This audio drama centers on Harleen Quinzel's fall from grace as a respected Arkham psychologist to the Joker's sidekick and plaything. One scene from episode 3, "Trust Fund Wonderboy," sees the newly-escaped Joker escalate his crime spree to the point of kidnapping a school bus. This is made all the better by Harleen's frantic attempts at convincing investor Bruce Wayne that the psychiatry ward is worth his money despite the chaos they've allowed to take place.
9 The Riddler Convinces Azrael To Set Himself On Fire The Riddler: Secrets In The Dark, 2023 Close When it comes to Batman's rogues gallery, The Riddler poses a threat ranging from the criminal mastermind of Paul Dano's take on the character to Jim Carrey's bumbling fool of a comedic villain. Yet some interpretations of the character are oddly charismatic, as explored by Hasan Minhaj's Edward Nygma. This story has the Riddler teaming up with Batman in an uneasy alliance against a murderous vigilante who had been framing the Dark Knight for murder.
The deadly Batman-esque assassin is revealed to be none other than Azrael, a sword-wielding maniac and lesser-known member of the Batfamily. Much to Batman's chagrin, Edward's methods of capturing the mentally vulnerable Azrael are less than delicate, using his powers of suggestion to convince the zealous vigilante to light himself ablaze. This climactic ending to an unlikely partnership is made all the better by Minhaj's utterly convincing performance and Spotify Studios' world-class foley work.
8 Bruce Hallucinates A Giant Bat Batman Forever, 1995

One of the most critically panned films to take a look at Batman, Joel Schumaker's Batman Forever has long been considered one of the least valuable films to feature The Dark Knight. From the nonsensical plot to the bizarre costume and set design, the film holds a true lack of reverence for its source material, resulting in some hilariously bad scenes. One of the most baffling choices, however, was left out of the final cut.
