Best Batman Characters

Batman is the best character in the Batman comics. They are called Batman comics for a reason. The Joker appears in a lot of the comics, but not all of them. Batman does, and I feel more emotionally attached to Batman. Joker being number one on this list is understandable, though. He's cool because he is like an evil Batman, which challenges Batman in ways no other villain can.

This should be no contest. Batman is the best character on this list. He's complex, relatable, and tragic! He's also badass! Without Batman, all the characters on this list would be virtually nothing. Batman is awesome by himself, an inspiration, and my favorite fictional character of all time!

The Joker is awesome. I think he is more interesting than Batman, with a more intriguing persona and past. His laugh is creepy, and he always has tricks up his sleeves. I think Troy Baker (Arkham Origins) and Heath Ledger (The Dark Knight) are the best portrayals. Don't get mad about me liking Mark Hamill less than other portrayals, but hey, why so serious?

After a lot of thinking, I concluded that he deserves the #1 position.

Right from his jokes, his persona, his actions, and his tricks to keep Batman on the run, he is legendary.

Be it the comics version of Joker, the Rocksteady version of Joker, or the Nolan version of Joker, none will disappoint you.

Sadly, Mark Hamill will never voice-act for Joker again. But hey! Why so serious?

Is there anything to explain? She is just so beast!

Best character ever! Cutesy but deadly!

Sexy, badass, and complex, she truly is the hero of Gotham! Unlike Batman, who is rich and has access to toys, Catwoman had to make her own gadgets, being poor on the street, which increases her relatability. Not only that, but Catwoman steals the show over Batman all the time, such as Julie, Anne, and Michelle! She also is seductive and has a fun personality.

The most badass comic book character ever! She isn't an antagonist, but she isn't a heroine either. Not to mention that she is also Batman's love interest. But mind the comic book. She is even better in Gotham. Gotham shows the young Selina, and might I add, she is my favorite character. Selina/Catwoman gets an A+, 10/10 for being amazing.

Dick Grayson is SO funny, and it's amazing how he is still so happy even after his past! I have always (and always will) loved Dick Grayson from The Batman to Teen Titans to Young Justice to when he becomes Nightwing in Young Justice and even in Teen Titans Go! He is AWESOME!

Holy top 10 list, Batman! He was hilarious in the '60s, awesome in the comics, and had awesome costume nipples in Batman Forever. What's not to love about The Boy Wonder?

I like Robin because of Batman training him to become a master fighter. But the only thing I don't like about him is the fact that he gets killed sometimes.

I really do hope that the rumors are true. I really want to see Edward Nygma team up with Penguin and Catwoman on the big screen. He is truly the greatest Batman villain.

What's an eleven-letter word that's always spelled incorrectly?

The second breakout character of the Gotham TV series (Penguin being the first).

There's just no beating him (except for Batman). He's just perfect. I really like the Alfred from The Dark Knight trilogy.

Currently, it is nearly impossible to imagine Batman without Alfred.

I really don't see why Alfred isn't in the top ten! This guy is the greatest butler ever.

So underrated. I'm having a hard time figuring out who I like more: Harley or Ivy? Ivy has a great origin and loves nature! I love nature and green, so I love Ivy a lot.

Come on! Poison Ivy deserves to be in at least the top 5. She's my number 1!

A villain who hasn't had his "Killing Joke" yet. He truly has the potential to be a better arch-enemy to Batman than even the Joker. They use the same type of weapon but in different ways. One is on the side of justice, and the other just wants to revel in terror and hear the horrifying shrieks of his victims. He just needs to be in the comics more and have bigger roles.

Such a dangerous enemy who can make anybody watch their fears and then die from fright. He tried to kill Batman, but Batman faced it and defeated him.

Batgirl is a beautiful woman in a bat mask, great style, great fighting skills, and very intelligent. She is an intellectual girl in a black costume with bat ears.

I know that 'Oracle' is already mentioned, but some may prefer Barbara Gordon as 'Batgirl.'

One of the most well-known characters in comics, currently the breakout character of the Gotham TV series.

You'll get it once you watch Gotham. They flesh out his character a lot.

I like Bane because he has super strength and he is in the latest Batman movie.

I love Batman and the Joker 100%. But come on, he is just crazy.

Nightwing is confirmed as the best acrobat in the DC universe. He's smart, skilled, a strong leader, and has a funny, optimistic personality to boot.

Takes down everyone in 2 seconds. He is amazing at fighting, and I hated that in Arkham City he didn't have a campaign or story mode. Also, Nightwing needs his own video game. Heck, maybe Robin can get his own game too.

Nightwing has been confirmed to be a better fighter than Batman himself. He should be higher on this list.

The most human of all Batman's villains and, in a weird way, the one we want the most to get better and redeem himself. Two-Face should be much higher than 17.

He deserves a higher spot although he isn't just a Batman villain. He is so badass and powerful that he took down the entire Justice League, never lost to Batman (mostly), and, of course, inspired Deadpool! Can't get better than Deathstroke (unless it's the Joker).

Occasional lover of Batman. She is torn between her father and Batman and between good and evil. Deep down, she has a good heart and has shown this by helping Batman.

I'm not just voting Talia as the best character ever. I voted her because she's smokin' hot! I might vote for the Joker on my friend's computer soon!

Bruh, Red Hood will always be the best iteration of Robin as far as I know. He's the one with the most nuance, conflict, and angst compared to the other ones, has a very dynamic relationship with Batman, and is overall pretty badass. Oh, and he arguably has the best Batman Animated Film (yes, I prefer UDRH over MOTP). Surprised to see him be this low.

This guy is badass! He needs to get in the top ten!
