I’m the goddamn Batman.

So, in a recent Batman, there appeared a snippet of dialogue which has gained instant fame among his fans (and, I dare say, the detractors) for being quite possibly the worst and least Batman-like comment ever uttered by the Dark Knight Detective – and that’s saying a lot. It’s not even cheesy bad, but just “Jesus, what the hell were you guys thinking?” bad.

The line is “What are you, dense? Are you retarded or something? Who the hell do you think I am? I’m the goddamn Batman.”

Don’t believe me?

So, the idea was this: seeing that Bruce is obviously more comfortable expressing his utter prick nature now, what other classic Batman appearances can this little gem be inserted into for fun and profit?

Yes, I am that bored.
