Top 10 Weird Things About Batman Comics
5 Bat-Milk and Cookies
Although it’s a cheat, it does not actually occur in the comics. However, I found it so funny that I couldn’t resist the opportunity to discuss it. In 1972, The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries was created. The second episode featured a team-up between Robin and Batman. The episode “The Dynamic Scooby Affair” features Batman and his gang attempting to take the Batcave to their rescue. However, they are blindfolded so that they can’t find the cave.
Shaggy asks Batman to have a snack while they wait for Batman to arrive at the Batcave. Batman tells Shaggy not to be worried, he will have “Bat milk and cookies” for everyone. It’s not clear if this was just Batman adding “Bat” to every noun (and sometimes verb), or if it was actually bat milk. It’s not clear if this was a classic Batman case of Batman putting “Bat” in front of every noun (and sometimes verb) or if it was actual milk from bats.
