* When I was younger, I thought Dr. Freeze just perceived temperatures at a lower level, like his version of 0F would be our 70F. But no. Pay attention to when he says he wishes he could feel the summer breeze. Mr.Freeze still perceives temperature as we would normally. It’s still just as awful for him in the suit as it would be for any normal person, he will just straight-up die if he goes outside of the thing.

* In “Joker’s Millions”, the Joker’s genuine fury with Barlow isn’t over getting pranked. It’s that Barlow pulled a ‘’much better’’ prank than he ever could. As stated, the Joker wants a death or last act that will be remembered for all time. Instead, King Barlow’s prank will be remembered and lauded by criminal and civilian alike. It also foreshadows the Joker’s rage over Terry telling him for all his blitz, the Joker was a lousy comedian.

* A meta-example: Creator/KevinConroy is still praised for his performance, particularly for convincingly portraying Bruce Wayne and Batman as two different people. The two identities are carefully separated and only presented to the right people in the proper circumstances. It was only after the original series wrapped that the world learned Conroy, as a closeted gay man, had been playing a similar role for his entire adult life until he came out, maintaining his sexuality as his own "secret identity". Conroy later explained that this was how he was able to deeply connect with the character and bring great feeling into his performance.

* Charlie managing to scare Joker with the threat of a stupid death makes sense. The Joker has a narcissistic view of himself as a comedian and the entire world is his personal stage. All his violent acts are one great performance. His final act, his death, needs to be something grand and glorious. One last bout with Batman would be epic. Being killed by some random loser is a boring and anticlimactic ending that wouldn’t fit his egotistical worldview. It’s not a cool way to die.

The series creators have said a few times that this version is that Batman is the true person, Bruce is the mask he wears in public.

* In "Fires of Olympus", Maxie Zeus referring to Batman as "Hades" is very becoming for the Dark Knight. Although he's (thankfully) not pulled into the delusion, Hades is the Greek God who fits him to a T. For one, despite what [[WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}} Disney]] would have you believe, Hades is actually one of the ''[[DarkIsNotEvil benign Greek Gods]]''. In some mythology, Hades wears a helmet to seem invisible, no different from how Bruce wears the cowl and hides in the shadows. Hades was so dreaded that people scarcely said his name, which upholds Batman being feared in Gotham's criminal world. And most notably, Hades was known as the "Father of Riches", something the wealthy Bruce Wayne would know a thing or two about.

* In "[[Recap/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriesE53PagingTheCrimeDoctor Paging the Crime Doctor]]" Rupert Thorne's men believe they killed Batman after his fall off the bridge and didn't see him land on the gondola taking pedestrians across. However, Rupert doesn't believe them for a minute and dismisses their claims. If one takes the production code as a general timeline, then just two episodes prior is "[[Recap/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriesE51TheManWhoKilledBatman The Man Who Killed Batman]]" where another one of Rupert's minions believes he killed Batman in fall and explosion with no body found. Rupert knows from personal experience that Batman isn't dead and isn't going to celebrate and spread the word about it. It could draw the attention of the Joker or other criminals onto his head.

* "Growing Pains" has Robin/Tim Drake falls for an amnesic girl named Annie, only to discover she's a piece of Clayface sent to scout around for him while he recovered from his "death" in "Mudslide". It may seem strange that Clayface chose to send a little girl of all things, until you remember: Who was the last person Clayface saw before he died (Batman aside)? Clayface was probably dazed and pulling his mind back together so the only person he could think of sending was his girl friday Stella Bates, but since he didn't have enough of "himself" to send he sent as close an approximation as he could. Seriously -- Annie's a dead-ringer for a pre-teen Stella. Intentional or not, it makes sense to me.

* As long as we're on the subject of discomforting sexuality, let's have a look at all the creepy implications of "House & Garden" with Poison Ivy. Putting aside all that (overhyped) LesYay stuff at the end, consider the nature of the "family" Poison Ivy told Batman she'd decided to have "on [her] own terms." Using a combination of her plant-cultivating skills and some DNA taken from an unwilling "donor" she raised a bunch of half-plant hybrids of him to be a series of "sons" who grew up to be "husbands" and then plant-monster minions over the course of just a few days. In other words, what we have is a rare science-fiction-enhanced DistaffCounterpart example of WifeHusbandry with the "wife" doing the husbanding. Consider also that Ivy must have been doing this for quite some time, and that she's basically using and disposing of her "men" like nose tissues. Misandry on a massive scale, anyone? Then, just to prove she's a ''total'' misanthrope and sociopath, she made a plant "copy" of herself too; she has to have known her doppelganger wouldn't last long against a weed-killer-equipped Batman. If GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex, Poison Ivy is a very, very, ''very'' bad person indeed.
