"Batman is only human. Meaning, he has a breaking point, just like--"
Me : His back?

ur not fun-ny
Damn
That was awesome

Bane: The guy who really 'broke' Batman
Literally*
Not to mention figuratively broke him by wearing Bats out by making him fight villain after villain.
Vignesh S he broke the Batman’s back....man
Exactly what I thought about before clicking this video lol
he broke him so bad its become a meme in robot chicken
Riddler broke my mental capacity in the Arkham games
Wait KFC? Didn’t know you were a comics fan
Dude kfc literally had their own comic
Yep
I still have to complete 222 riddles in Batman AK, i wanna die
Pain
I think Joe chill should've at least gotten a mention, he was the one who's actions created batman as a whole
Who's Joe?

Honestly, that random kid just might be the best antagonist for batman since the joker. That shit is dark af
lol, what is Life aymore when a kid in a perfect scenrio could break even someone like him XD
Honorable Mention: "God Emperor Joker"
He kept Bruce locked up and killed/resurrected him everyday just for laughs...for years! It broke him so much that Superman had to take those memories from him.
That's brutal!
Right!
I feel like another Honorable Mention would be the Batman who laughs.
Mad hater he was almost killed by Batman but Alfred saved changed Batman mind
Batman’s weakness: Random children resenting their parents and estranging from them.
No court of owls? Really? In the labyrinth?
Guess the comic’s didn’t want to cause the batman who laughs killed them all.
WayneFTW Perhaps...
Jackson2024 1 damn...
Yeah wtf why arent they i mean they made him watch his parents die over and over
@WayneFTW u havent read that one wtf
If Joe chill isn't on this I'm gonna be a bit disappointed.
Who??? (I'm bouta get r/woooooooooshed arn't I)
@@tgzzz1 nah, he's the guy that killed the Wayne's
@@toddhowardforreal3912 oh ok thx I'm not the biggest Batman can so I forgot
@@tgzzz1 *fan
Oh
Batman's Back:
Bane: lmao BYE
Jeebus H. Christopher YEET
So he's immune against the pheromones and the fear gas... I wonder why Joker is the only one clever enough to keep changing his chemicals to adapt. Eh. Comics I guess.
Maybe Joker (ironically) is the only rogue who is smart enough to adapt
Is Poison Ivy even able to change?
You missed one: Deacon Blackfire from "Batman: The Cult" limited series. To date the only villain to not just break Batman mentally, but actually *convert* him into an acolyte. Granted it was for only one issue, but still.
You also could have added the little girl in "Death of Innocents" who blows herself up at the end. Batman looked pretty broken then...
Yes, Cassandra Cain...a deadly assassin...one of the most skilled Martial Artist of the DC Universe. If only We had a live action version of her...or just a cameo in this badass suit in a DCEU film..
the thing that can break batman is a kid saying *Martha*
batman: *''WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME!!!!'????'*
Lol
Bruh Batman is always losing his children, how can he take it???
All the Robins are dying.
Is that what they are there for? I mean there are dressed in bright colours, he makes a point of never adopting any with superpowers and he recently revealed that he punches them as a way of communicating
no.10: A random kid
Ok that went from 0 to 100 really quick
Alfred shooting Predator was the greatest thing ever back when I first read it.
Batman should covered himself in mud to disguise heat signatures from the predator. It worked for Arnie.
Hard to do in an alley city as oppose to a forest lol. The predator cheats when you think about it, he was beating both Arnie and Batman with his gear, but on equal footing it's a different ballgame.
@@MKF30 r/wooosh but yea the predator does cheat
@@Jh1lls Yeah don't get me wrong I love both Predator and Batman lol, just saying the dude cloaks half the time lol major advantage. lol. Also, I am new to the r whoosh term, is this a new Gen Z form of slang? I'm an 80's kid lol
MKF30 its a Reddit term as in you didn’t get the joke that’s where it came from I don’t know when it became a popular term people use it when a comment has gone over someone’s head woosh as in the sound of something being thrown hope this explains it XD
@@Jh1lls Ahh I see, thanks for the info. I never really go on reddit so that explains it haha. I got his post, I was just being wise myself ;) maybe it's because I live in NYC which is more or less Gotham heh.😁
Can't help but think Batman is a bit of a debby downer.
God, like... he keeps bringing it up? Sure, you're forced to relive your trauma and are regularly beaten up and emotionally abused but, like, we all have our problems
Well obviously otherwise he'd Tweety Bird or The Dove or some other upbeat goody goody, LOL...but "He's BATMAN" a kinda ridiculous character we all love
7:15 Yeah...your point well taken ;)
Well, he’s only human, and we do kind of all suck...If he was from a different planet, he’d be much more chipper!
@@kitcarson3756 Nah he would just be an alien Debby downer.
Batman: The Cult better be on this list. It's probably my favorite Batman comic and he was beaten, kidnapped, tortured and so mentally defeated that he converted to Deacon Blackfire's cult.
Edit: It's not here. Once again, WhatCulture has failed with comics. This list is basic asl. 😂😥
@Linda Niemkiewicz asl = as hell
It's not on the list. Surprised me too.
I don't even think whatculture reads comics. They just go for the most generic and casual opinions and conversations on comics and run with as little knowledge as possible
I forget how he snapped outta of it in the cult and defeated him? All I remember in the cult was that sweet batmobile.
I've never actually read the story, but I've heard Jason Todd helps him become himself again.
Really? Where is Deacon Blackfire from "The Cult" and the Talon from "The Court of Owls"? Lame...
The title says 10 comic book characrers who broke the bat NOT all.
Do you know where i can read it online for free
Good video, made me realise that there are still a few Batman stories that I need to go back and read.
I’m really surprised that azreal didn’t show up on here. You picked some unpopular picks that quite frankly didn’t break him exactly. Azreal didn’t even torture him, after a decade of watching azreal become a monster he decided he would become one too.
Another one to Joker's credit : Death Has The Last Laugh.
A man and his entire family are murdered by the Joker for daring to testify against a criminal, even though Joker didn't even know him or the criminal against whom he testified. This enraged Batman so much that he snaps and decides to hunt down the Joker to kill him.
Direct quote : (Caps for bold text)
Gordon: « BATMAN... I know how you feel, but remember, we represent the LAW, not our own personal emotions or hatreds ! No vigilante stuff ! »
Batman: « I make no promises. You'd better catch THE JOKER before I do... if you want him ALIVE ! »
And oh the dark irony of the ending ! XD
Batman has cooled down by that time, but should he have ? Since the crime turns out to be... well, read it if you want to find out ! ^_^
...thank you. Gonna go look it up right now.
I remember reading that
What's the crime?,sorry I'm to lazy to look it up
Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #16 - 20. In the Venom storyline, Doctor Randolph Porter staged his daughter’s kidnapping and murdered her to get a young Batman to feel guilty about not being able to save her. He then got Batman hooked on Venom and almost got him to kill Gordon for him. He literally turned Batman into a junkie! Bats locked himself away in the Batcave and went through hell to quit cold turkey. He also almost relapsed afterward, at one point. I would say that counts as a villain that broke the Bat.
if batman has a lot of willpower why isn’t he a green lantern
He became both a black and white lantern
what
MrOni he became a green lantern before too
It is because he does not have willpower to over come his parents death and fear from it if I remember the comic panel correctly
In Armageddon 2001 (1991 release date) Batman fought with Guy Gardener and took his ring from him. The ring actually was absorbed onto his hand in the fight. He became a Green lantern before turning down the ring due to him fearing what he might become. He has also taken the ring off of Hal Jordon when they first met after New 52 reboot. And, in the Dark Knight Metal story he gets the ring after his parents are killed and used his will power then to over ride the rings programing so he could kill Joe Chill. All of these things are impossible to do for anyone without great will power. I don't think I have ever seen another story where the ring is removed without killing the wearer or at least cutting off their arm, hand or ring finger.
So what you're saying is... He gets knocked down, but then gets up again... Ain't nothing gonna keep him down?!
When?
@@selflessdubs7739 When what?
Drew Rivers when did I ask
Tell me, Drew... do you sing songs about the good times
@@reido_dorito Yes Sir, I do. And occasionally... I sing songs about the better times... but that's usually when I'm pissing the night away! ;)
Batman: how dare you all conspire against me, invade my privacy, and do something so "criminal"
Also batman: has plans to counter all heroes by exploiting their weaknesses by means that could permanently scar or kill them on top of making a satellite that spies on the league
in his defence, what the league did was in their own interest. What batman did was a precaution because he knows no one is infallible and could turn whether it be a traumatic event or brainwashing
In what storyline did this happen??
@@fenrir139 in their defense, it was a combined thought process that was to help protect people compared one man's paranoia that was made true just for plot and an excuse to validate Batman's sole and flawed concept of justice. Batman's selfishness has no bounds, so he can sleep better at night (or day) has put too much effort into protecting the Joker, a monster who's capable of so much casualties and havoc and in alternate timelines proven to do even worse evils. It's one thing if he doesn't want to kill out of his own preference, mental weakness to differentiate proper context to justify taking lives and a general lack of moderation, but to obstruct others from doing what he doesn't want to do that would be a service to Gotham and the world is something else. Batman will go to no ends trying to justify his deeds while criticizing others for doing the same thing. So it's understandable why the group would see the man who's way too stubborn, jaded, paranoid and dangerous as a problem
@@mohammedalzoubi9275 I'm referring to Tower of Babel
Injustice: Gods amoung us count as well (even it's not in the main comic continuity, 'AKA parallel reality'), yes, i'm one year later, but still....
I would say Holly Robertson should be on this list, she is the one who convinced Selina to leave him during 2018.
love the content keep it up:)
You just dont mess with Alfred, man. Have some respect Bane damn it
I remember number 8. He was in Phenious and Ferb.
This is a joke he just reminds me of the platypus hunter.
Batman: "I need an armor to kill the Predator"
Arnold: "My body is the armor... get to the chappaaaa"
7:42 It wasn’t just the Joker who broke the bat, it was his own fans...
sir, that was beautiful. subscribed.
Tom King broke Batman and murdered Alfred.
Hush? Really? HA! Where’s Jason?
Obsessiveness.
6:56 So Cain worked for S.H.E.I.L.D.?
*Avengers Theme Plays.*
Lego Batman 27 (ear rape version)
The thumbnail brought me here!
Awesome list.
3:01
Sokka: and I took that personally.
9:08
Yeah literally batman himself,you showed it in the intro,the batman who laughs,and even barbatos
This reminds me how ridiculous some of these stories get.
I would’ve mentioned a different Joker story, I’d argue the creation of ‘The Batman who Laughs’ is breaking Batman in the most extreme sense.
There’s also all the other evil batmen in that story, all of whom were basically broken by themselves, so Batman could also have gone on the list.
That random kid didn't broke batman, he just pissed him off

Lol I like he didnt mention that batman defeated the justice league by himself
ad me to that list when im ready
Another less obvious one- Deathstroke VS Deadshot ('Battle Of The Snipers') from The War Of Jokes And Riddles.
Belt ad was funny 😆
"Silky" Cernak is the one to really break batman in earth two, as he caused batman to kill his wife when he caused a ricksha to bounce into Catwoman.
That hush story is dark as hell he really took her heart out and put it in a tank dawg!
Everyone : did u die ?
Jason todd : sadly yes,BUT I LIVED
Arkham Knight?
Broken but not really defeated. Whats more amazing is batman's comebacks to all of these.
Jesus, that’s why he created Brother Eye and the Babel Protocol. He’s completely justified if thats the case.
Agamemnon Contingency Plan
Not really. Firstly he attacked his own teammates. He didn't try to talk or reason with them, he immediately resorted to violence against people that trusted him. Second, while mental tampering IS a lousy thing to do to a comrade, how did it effect him, really? Zatanna didn't force him to do anything against his will, she didn't re-write his personality, she didn't erase some cherished memory that brought him great joy. He lost two minutes of memory at most and again, Zatanna only did that in self-defence.
@@Wright805 And it was needed if they won't kill him should they jail him and risk snitching their IDs to world she was in the right
@@Wright805 but wiping light's memory was needed
@@93ImagineBreaker That's true.
Did you make a video game of this
Bane: are you really in charge
The thumbnail is a panel from batman detective comics where the scarecrow try's to break him, but batman is just acting
Well this now needs an update for the Batman Who Laughs timeline
Thing you forget in the Stephanie Brown one. She enacted one of Batman's plans that required 'Matches Malone' to play a part. Bruce never told Stephanie that HE was 'Matches', meaning there was no chance the plan could work. He was the cause of his own hurt there.
I'm actually curious. How did Batman regain the trust? Gordon and the Gotham gcpd after they refused to work with him after this incident.
@@dcmarvelcomicfans9458 Honestly? Can't recall. Probably some emergency he actually got right.
@@alunrundle162 Oh, I understand.
ok......what earth one scene was doing in HUSH section?
when you say joker beating jason
you mean the fanbase
there's more than just 10, but the thing is that he usually clean the floor with their faces after
No Talon/Court of Owls? They made Batman go crazy while trapped in a labyrinth in darkness for days without any food our water.
He was ready to give up and accept his fate when they were beating him to death, but noticing a picture of his grandfather on a wall and realising that the court also killed him got him into rage mode which managed to get him to fight back and escape.
I know joker was mentioned, but what about when he finally broke Batman and got him to “most likely” kill him
What about Deacon Blackfire?
no, his power is rich, rich af :v
Exactly.
THAT build up:
-Batman is so disciplined its almost inhuman
-.He has no fear ,stays logical in dire situation
-his mental strenght is so enormous that he can resits toxins and pheromons
so... who could possibly break him...?
"Number 10: A random Kid"
“No actual powers” he had the power of super intuition
Wow your Stephanie Brown segment is so off, Gordon wasn't Commissioner during War Games.
Whatculture: this is so sad it can bring a tear a mans eye anyways
batman vs predator was an amazing read 😄
My first time knowing bout it's seem interesting wonder what if they made movie with Batman vs predator
You say a Super healing factor is not real, well how would you judge it? Like Wolverine, where he still loses his hand if cut off, or like Deadpool where you cut off his hand it grows back?
Culture: "Resist Scarecrows fear toxin and Ivy's control"
Joker toxin: "allow me to introduce myself"
“Name 10 people that have broken you.”
Batman; “The the the the the the the the the joker.”
I could add this guy from "Sect" comic.
A jautja vs batman, damn they both have some sick gadgets
I’ll have to say Superman and wonder woman both broke Batman pretty hard since the three of them were friends from the injustice universe.
How bout the guy who murdered his parents
3:56 wait did tims pops kill boomerang too????
No mention of emperor joker?
He bounced back from the rest but had to have his mind erased again to even function.
You forgot Deathstroke in his early solo series Slade viciously beat Batman to a pulp. Bronze Tiger, also. In the story where Cathy Kane died Bronze Tiger beat him in hand to hand combat. Bronze Tiger was brainwashed and was involved in Cathy's murder. That definitely counts as a time where Batman was broken.
This list is kind of confusing in the sense that "broken" needs more context. Losing fights isn't going to break someone like Batman...he knows there are small number of people out there who can beat him physically, and he doesn't always expect to come out on top against opponents like Shiva, or Bronze Tiger. What I find more interesting about Batman is that he's constantly holding back against his opponents. Here they are going full tilt trying their best to kill him, and he's doing his best NOT to kill them. When you think about it like that, it kind of makes some of his opponents victories hollow.
😳😳😳😳😳😳😳 WAS THAT NOOB SAIBOT?! 0:53
Where can I find these books I'm 32 and wanna catch up on what I missed out on
EBay
Are all of them canon?
I say Batman's Dad is the one that really broke him. He played him, had his heart broke by cat woman and lost all of Gotham to Thomas Wayne
Well I don’t know if he broke Batman, but spawn did gave the dark knight a HELLA fight, and left spawn with a splitting headache
Where would that Batman who laughs be on this list
Are we not going to mention deacon blackfire whom Bruce straight up said broke him? Check out batman: the cult vol 1-4 written by jim Starlin. Brilliant work.
Ffs start cutting down the pointlessly long intros.
Short attention span?
@@impalabeeper for pointlessness? Most certainly.
@@AjayBagga9 its really not that long its just 1 minute
Since when was 1minute long? Are you really that impatient or just that stupid?
To see Batman endure so much loss......!
I think Court of Owls should be on here
batman.exe is not responding
Magog in Kingdom Come
nice devil number
Lot of these are just gonna be Batman getting angry aren't they?
Yep.
In the Injustice Universe, Daimaian Wayne. He threw a baton at Nightwing, thinking he'd dodge it. But Nightwing didn't notice it, was hit, fell onto a large rock and broke his neck. Daimaian tried to apologize, but was rejected. Bruce said that he had lost his son.
What about the court of owls?
