Inspired by the comic ''ComicBook/TinyTitans'', the-dark-cat/The Black Cat not only portrays Batman as a superhero/crime fighting detective, but also as a single father trying to raise his four sons: Dick, Jason, and Tim (the three most famous Robins), and a baby named [[WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond Terry]]. The comic is not only funny and adorable, but also succeeds at poking fun at topical points in comics, such as the Dark Knight, Batman's 70th Anniversary, and Creator/GrantMorrison. It also occasionally features other DC superheroes and their respective sidekicks/kids.

** Also in "Peace on Earth": Flash tries to stop an argument between Batman and Green Lantern only to get chewed out by Batman, who even makes him cry. In the end, it's [[AlmightyMom Iris Allen]]'s intervention that gets them to stop.



* TheNicknamer: Batman's WWE-esque nicknames in 'Take Down' range from groanworthy but acceptable (Terror Terry) to nonsensical (Fearsome Tim) to ''absolutely dreadful'' (The Dickminator).

Getting Crap Past The Radar needs to discuss how it actually got past the radar, it's not simply any innuendo (and if it's a web work, then lack of a radar disqualifies it)


* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: In a scene of "Rivalry", Jade is pelting Tommy Bronson with water balloon constructs to defend Obsidian:
-->'''Jade:''' You take back what you said about my brother!\\
'''Tommy:''' All I asked [was] if he wanted some fruit... [[labelnote:Didn't get it?]]In the comics canon, Obsidian is gay. Adding to the confusion is the Lantern kids are still tiny preschoolers in this incarnation, and that Canon!Tom never showed any inclination to tease people about orientation.[[/labelnote]]
