Baby-Doll
Batman: The Animated Series

twostriptechnicolor

This is one criminally underrated Batman villain.

SERIOUSLY THOUGH SHE WAS MY FAVORITE BATMAN VILLAIN

Her physical condition didn’t allow her to age

No one took her seriously as an actress

And even when she was trying to get into a happy romantic relationship (albeit with another villain) he still couldn’t take her seriously as a consenting, sexually active and romantically interested adult

That’s a lot of blows to someone’s psyche 

and Babydoll is both a sympathetic villain and a formidable one

And man, do I wish we could see this Batman again: the Batman that consoles his villains, because the majority (if not all) of them are mentally ill people. And Batman knows this and wants them healthy again, not punished and GOD definitely not dead.

Baby Doll is so underrated as a Batman villain 

but her episode was perfect

Batman: The Animated Series

The story of one fucked up, traumatized little boy, doing his best to help other fucked up traumatized people.

#this show is the only batcanon that matters to me #dc can burn everything else down but they’ll never pry the dcau from cold dead clawed hands

The Batman that cares about the inmates is my favorite. He doesn’t put up with their shit, but he does try to reach out here and there and he’s as human as he can be to them.

When Harley was re-institutionalized, he got her that dress she wanted.

In the comics based on B:tAS, there was a time during Christmas that there was snow and it was Mr. Freeze’s fault, and he was making it snow because Christmas was his anniversary with Nora and she LOVED it when it snowed on Christmas, so Batman let him finish mourning before calmly taking him back to Arkham.

He never, ever gives up on Harvey possibly recovering.

Sure, Batman is going to throw punches and do what it takes to take these guys down when they’re hurting or threatening people. And he’s not going be a complete bleeding heart; he has to protect the innocent. He’s going to take them down and take them back to Arkham, but it doesn’t mean he’s incapable of being a bit human to the ones who deserve it.

Because it needs to be here:

Remember that time a young girl with near god-like psychic powers threatened to destroy reality and the only one that could stop her was Batman because he had a previous encounter with her and was tasked with killing her to restore reality.

But instead, Batman sat with her on a swing and kept her company as the girl’s psychic powers slowly killed her.

No?

The. Batman.

This is MY Batman, not the murderous fascist they’ve made him into.

All of these things make Batman the truest hero in the DC universe.

This one man who was so horribly traumatized by his parents being murdered right in front of him then spent his life training and studying to become the best protector he could be. Now, to be a protector, he could have simply stopped at stopping the bad guys, but no. That’s not good enough for Bruce. Whenever there is a chance to reach into the darkness and help someone pull themselves out, he will always be the first one to extend that hand. Baby Doll was actually a PERFECT example of that. The woman was shooting at him, and he just basically waited until her gun ran out, then took the gun as gently as possibly and hugged her while she cried. And yeah, Ace was just plain heartbreaking. That girl could not have been older than 15 or 16, and he knew it. That moment always rips my heart in half no matter how many times I watch it.

Why did they take that man away? DCAU Batman was the very best Batman, and all they had to do was stay the course for him being a hero with the greatest humanity, even with the darker tendencies he has. *sigh* Whatever happened to my DC? The one that was able to produce amazing tales that didn’t need to be soaked in blood and darkness…
