* Holiday Special: Agitated that there would be no snow at Christmas, Mr. Freeze breaks out of Arkham Asylum and manufactures a blizzard. When Batman stops him, he gives him one chance to turn himself in peacefully, tiredly demanding to know why he would cause trouble on Christmas Eve, of all days. In response, Victor points at Nora's tombstone:
-->'''Freeze''': "We were married ten years ago on a snowy Christmas day. Nora loved the snow. I thought it....sad that there should be none this year. And I wouldn't want my Nora to be sad tonight."

* Annual #1 ''Study Hall'': After having a AndThenWhat moment, the Scarecrow escapes Arkham and manages to changes his identity, getting a job at a local university, making a HeelFaceTurn as he finds himself teaching a smart female student, who he genuinely likes and is proud of. But all of it comes crashing down when he finds out later that her JerkJock of a boyfriend not only beat her, but also raped her too, traumatizing the poor girl. All of this is too much for Crane as this results in him having to go back to the life he tried to escape. Despite this, it's a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome as the first thing he does as Scarecrow is to teach the asshole boyfriend a lesson in fear.

* Issue #17 "Fear Itself", which shows that Joe Chill has spent the last twenty years or so bouncing in and out of prison on petty charges and living in fear that someday Bruce Wayne will find him. He's no criminal mastermind, he wasn't working on any orders, he's just a dumb crook who let a robbery get away from him, and has been living in guilt and fear for it ever since. And then one night, while fighting Batman, he gets a look under the mask, sees Bruce Wayne's face... and thinks he's snapped entirely, and winds up killing himself by accident trying to get away, while Batman just looks on dumbfounded wondering "what was that about?". There's something very sad, and very poignant, about seeing such a human rendition of Joe Chill, and just how random and senseless it makes the Batman origin story, and that in the end ''neither'' of them ever knew the truth.
