Batman's Silliest Fight Proved the Dark Knight Could Be Serious AND Goofy
Although Batman is regarded mostly as a serious figure with a tragic past, he has found himself in funny situations even during his more grim periods of fighting crime. Even in the 1970s, a period in which the comedic trappings of Silver Age Batman were being shed for something darker, there were still laughs to go around. An iconic example: in the midst of tracking down one of the most dangerous supervillains in Gotham, Batman ends up in a fistfight on top of a giant typewriter. It may sound like the setup to a bad joke, but it happened at the height of one of the most widely-beloved runs in Batman's history.
