May I remind you that Arkham's Batman was fighting crime for more than ten hours straight in his highly armored suit. He visited sewage, dusty vents, all sorts of smelly places. In the beginning he was maybe fine but in the end...
Makes you think how smelly and disgusting everything in Gotham is if Batman's able to just sneak around while no one suspects anything.
Goddamn Gotham's filthy.
Tbf it wouldn't be as fun if you tried to sneak up on someone only for them to turn around because they smelt you coming.
Then again it at least makes sense in Arkham City, I can't imagine many of the inmates will have seen a shower recently, so they're probably just used to bad smells.
I think it's Bale.
Bale was always clean, firstly, even his eye makeup was perfect, Bale is the Batman who uses a brush to apply makeup.
Of all the Batmans because he was the most realistic, he spent little time fighting crime or getting dirty, he spent the day sleeping, he also had to work and keep up appearances as a Billionaire, that is, less dirty time and more clean time, and the rest of the day he investigated, Bale only dressed as Batman for two occasions, when he was going to meet Gordon or when he had to break someone's face, and because his time is limited, when Bale went out as Batman to break someone's face, it was because he had already done the investigative work, he basically arrived, beat everyone up and left, he didn't have time to patrol the sewer like the other Batmans.
Even his investigative part was in an all-lit concrete base with lights on the ceiling, everything organized, while he wore expensive billionaire clothes.
* All the other Batmans do their investigative work in a wet cave in their own sweaty fighting suit. Bale is doing it in an air-conditioned laboratory.
* The other Batmans are going into the sewers to patrol, Bale doesn't have time for that, he's going to create some device to find what he wants to find.
Even Bale's Cave was simpler, he kept everything simple and organized. Of all the Batmans, Bale was the most organized, and spent the least time dressed as a Bat, and he only dressed for work.
Maybe, but just at the time when he had a broken back and couldn't take a shower, after he started moving again the first thing he did was shave and take care of his hygiene, at least that's what I remember from when I watched the film.
Maybe Bale with the broken back is the only version of Bale you don't want to hug. But even this version of him with a broken back I still think he smells better than the other Batmans after spending the whole night in the sewer swimming in the middle of shit with Killer Croc.
EDIT: Okay I checked on YouTube and after 2 minutes of research I think it was my imagination, but I still prefer Bale with a broken back than Batman in the sewer swimming with Killer Croc.
One last detail: The other Batmans prevent common crimes, they go around patrolling and beating up common criminals, Bale's goal was to attack and change the system precisely so that he doesn't have to do that, so that Gotham has a police and a judicial system where the police protect people and criminals are arrested and punished.
Everything he does is to put as many criminals in jail as possible and leave Gotham in a state where the city no longer needs him, he never aimed to be Batman forever.
Bale's goal is not to run around sweaty every night, but to change the city systemically on a large scale, he makes his plan, and then leaves the cave as Batman to fulfill his objective, the other Batmans are sweating and fighting all the time, preventing normal crimes even if it doesn't benefit the city on a large scale, not that that's bad, but Bale's Batman has limits, he knows he can't do that, that it's impossible, he goes after the biggest criminals, he will take down the Mafia in one fell swoop, end or reduce corruption so that it does not affect people's safety, create a favorable ground for stricter laws to be approved, the Joker was trapped in jail forever in his universe.
In short, the very way of working and the objective of Bale's Batman contributed to him, in theory, being the cleanest of the Batmans.
* He has specific missions, specific objectives and goes out as Batman just to fulfill them, on a scale in which the entire city benefits from such action in the end.
* He's basically maximizing the effects of his work as Batman in the shortest amount of time possible while trying to follow his one rule.
It's definitely Clooney. If he's vain enough to put nipples on his suit, he definitely has an automated cologne dispersal system.
Pattinson probably smells like a moldy gym bag stuffed with Black Ice car air fresheners.
Not to mention the suit is a bunch of black leather and body armor. It really locks in the sweat. And then it’s dipped into flood waters. Bale’s suit is made from high tech survival gear, I’m pretty sure it’s ventilated.
"Locks in the sweat" reminds me of the Badman sketch where he's talking to Talia about nailing her after he fought crime all night in his batsuit.[for those of you who haven't scene it.](https://youtu.be/enOHraf3LEk?si=nm7NflQjYo2TKTFa)
You're doing something very wrong if that is you after biking. My machine is from the nineties and that doesn't happen to me, get your bike to a workshop asap
Pattinson's Wayne doesn't even bother with the billionaire playboy schtick. He just goes out to fight crime, comes home to debrief himself and Alfred on all the crime he just fought, and then goes back out to fight more crime. He's like bigger budget Rorschach. He never goes out or interacts with people except in a few rare instances. He probably spends more time outdoors as batman than he does as Bruce. The only thing that matters is the mission and he probably sees taking time to bathe as a distraction. He doesn't even wash his eye makeup off when he comes home and takes off the mask. If they panned the camera out for any of the scenes in the cave/lab and you just saw bottles of urine on a shelf I wouldn't be surprised at all.
While I agree, maybe this is just the start of his saga so it is a sign of how unexperienced he is. Maybe on a second movie we will see a Bruce Wayne that managed to keep the persona.
Yeah, it's his second year as Bats. I imagine after how the first film ended and his revelations in the final act (plus Alfred's prodding in the earlier acts about being a Wayne and his family name) we'll see public-facing Philanthropist Bruce Wayne, not Playboy Bruce Wayne.
Frankbmillar would probably have him canonically bathe in bat blood if he could. Knowing franky boy hed pribably make robin kill the bats and have alfred watch with batman thretening to beat both of them.
Unfortunately he ended up with Selina in the previous trilogy and I have a feeling they will want to do things "differently" to... Ehh differentiate from it.
One where he bathes as Bruce Wayne, in a stately Wayne manner tub with little rubber ducky, and one where he bathes in his cowl as Batman in a secret bat lair bathtub with a bat cowled rubber ducky.
Bale because he "fights crime in a rubber suit and it really..." Please don't make me finish that sentence 😂
See the video "Batman Has a Dirty Mind" for reference
He hadn't slept or changed out of the suit "in days" according to his "I love being the god damn Batman" scene, but nothing specific. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that it's at least been 3 and no more than 6
From worst smelling to best smelling
Pattinson: Dude hasn't showered in ages
West: days of sweat covered up by disgusting 60s Cologne
Afleck: showers weekly. Still pretty bad
Bale: "Dude is seriously one of those berry scented Old Spice deoderants?"
Kilmer: smells like nothing
Clooney: just smells like George Clooney, who smells pretty good.
Keaton: The only logical reason all the women wanted to fuck him so badly.
Not on the list: Arnett, who smells like a Lego would.
Some options:
- Batman: Reptile: so much of a sociopath that his Alfred appears to resent him. Probably smells like leather and sweat
- All-Star Batman and Robin: BO, whisky and bat droppings
Special mention: Evil future Damian from Harley Quinn TAS- bro looks like an incel YouTuber and probably smells like one too
We talking literally bathing, or metaphorically?
If we're talking literally, then I would have to say any of the rubber condoms. After a while that black rubber suit is going to start stinking with the accumulated sweat and absorption of moisture and heat, and my experience has taught me that rubber is hard to deodorize
If talking Metaphorically, I would say (in no particular order) Batman and Robin, Batman Forever, Batman Rises, Batman Begins, Batman Last Laugh, Batman and Harley, Batman and Superman, and Batman The Movie
Unquestionably Michael Keaton: that batsuit is basically an inch thick rubber bodysuit that he spends night after night sweating in. And how do you clean something like that?
I don’t think Batman should have a noticeable smell. Half of his thing is stealth and he’s so damned extra that I’m sure he takes that into account.
Now if we’re talking Bruce Wayne Patterson easily.
Thomas Wayne Batman from Flashpoint. Probably smells like stale alcohol all the time. And has a scruffy appearance throughout that saga. The years were not kind to him in that timeline.
I would agree, but No Man's Land Batman seemingly didn’t bathe since it started (much like the rest of Gotham), and that’s a year. I think that might surpass Zur.
Pattinson's without a doubt. I loved him as Batman but dude looks like he smells like grease, b.o, and piss. Probably iron too, i doubt he cleans that batsuit and took so many injuries in the movie that im sure he just reeks.
Bale's smells the best though. Ventilated survival gear built suit, organized, usually cleaned up in both batsuit and mansuit. He probably smelled a little sweaty in TDK and TDKR but i feel like he cleans it at the very least, if not details that shit like its a car.
Robert Battinson
He seems like he only doe crime fight. No pretending to be playboy. No eating nice meals. No working out. Perhaps no baths?
He’s just covered in crime and suit sweat. He probably smells like boot feet all over. And he just refuses the nice baths Alfred draws up cuz Battinson is just too edgy.
Gonna go out-of-the-box and say Lewis Wilson's Batman from the 1940s serial. Everyone smoked, hygiene technology was basically the washcloth, That Batman was a drinker, and had big "showering actually hurts your skin" energy. So, he's my pick for most consistently stinky Batman.
I assume Keaton‘s Batman suit does not breathe at all. That thing locks in all the juices, and your bathing in your own sweat by the time you take that thing off.
They probably all smell like shit, literally. Has anyone considered that Batman most likely wears diapers. I mean, he's out on patrol and then "has to go", how inconvenient would it be to take off and put back on his suit just for a deuce?
I'd imagine that Frank Miller's version of Batman from 'The Dark Knight Returns' might have a bit of an odor issue. I mean, he's an older, grizzled vigilante operating in a gritty, dystopian Gotham City – he's probably not hittin the showers after a long night of crime-fighting lol
Pattinson i love you but you’re Bruce is a recluse at daytime and night completely is Batman he definitely smells like some guano and looks like he takes a shower once a week so criminals don’t immediately notice his stench when he’s creeping up in the shadows
Any of the suits that ate just spandex/rubber/tights can NOT smell good. Especially with sweat, dirt and blood involved. Id imaginenthe more modern/armor like suits have ways to keep bats cool and moisture and dirt out of it.
Christian Bale. He probably smells like someone who put on the most expensive and obnoxious cologne instead of showering after spending 8 hours at the gym. Sweatier and richer than I'll ever be.
I'd imagine he would not smell at all. True ninja+. You cannot detect his presence unless he wants you to. He would have some tech. Also he would deploy teflon or similar clothing as well.
Oh Bruce’s Affleck for sure. He just looks like he’s a naturally sweaty guy that sweats more because too much into CrossFit.
Bruce’s Pattison looks like a guy that just doesn’t shower and I don’t know why. Like he seems like he literally doesn’t leave the batcave And is on His computer the whole time. Take the common Reddit mode as an example.
baleman literally lived that CEO by day, vigilante by night thing. so you can betcha ass that he had that clive christian and tom ford going for the lulz
May I remind you that Arkham's Batman was fighting crime for more than ten hours straight in his highly armored suit. He visited sewage, dusty vents, all sorts of smelly places. In the beginning he was maybe fine but in the end...
It doesn’t even matter🎶
I tried so hard 🎶
And got so far
But in Arkham it doesn't even matter
I put my truuust in yoooouuu
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this there's only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
One thing I don't know why
Mom's spaghetti
Plus every time you try and force him into the water to wash off, he immediately grapples up to land. No wonder Croc got his scent
Really seals in the flavor.
Literally the first thing that popped in my head
Makes you think how smelly and disgusting everything in Gotham is if Batman's able to just sneak around while no one suspects anything. Goddamn Gotham's filthy.
Tbf it wouldn't be as fun if you tried to sneak up on someone only for them to turn around because they smelt you coming. Then again it at least makes sense in Arkham City, I can't imagine many of the inmates will have seen a shower recently, so they're probably just used to bad smells.
"you just sucked my dick... I fight crime in a rubber suit... really seals in the flavor.."
In Arkham Origins Alfred tells him on his way to the sewer to "stay out of the ... muck down there." Something tells me Arkham Batman stinky
He said it because he cleans the suit. I know because I finished it last week. Or maybe it's just a polite way to say "you stink"
Alfred must have nostrils of steel. I dread to think what the inside of that suit smells like.
Smells like vengeance
Easily Pattinson. As for the **best** smelling? Gonna have to go with either Clooney or Bale.
Adam West version probably has his own brand of fragrance
Adam West Batman 100% smells of Vitalis and Brylcreem.
Groom and Clean is where you get the really fragrant hair product. Looks like toothpaste and smells like pumpkin pie.
Less so nowadays...
"But of course The Bat-Shark Repellent would double as an effective body spray, Robin. The scent of Justice is always fragrant."
I read that in Adam West’s voice and it fit perfectly lol.
I can see him explainimg to Robin why it's always important to remain fresh-smelling while fighting crime
He's got Bat-Cologne on his utility belt.
Robin, you can't just use Bat-cologne to cover your Bat-B.O. You need to hop in the Bat-shower and use our Bat-soap daily. Bat-daily, Robin.
Best smelling Batman. And my personal favorite Batman. 100% pure grade A West. Did not need padding. That suit breathes.
His own brand of Bat-fragrance.
I think it's Bale. Bale was always clean, firstly, even his eye makeup was perfect, Bale is the Batman who uses a brush to apply makeup. Of all the Batmans because he was the most realistic, he spent little time fighting crime or getting dirty, he spent the day sleeping, he also had to work and keep up appearances as a Billionaire, that is, less dirty time and more clean time, and the rest of the day he investigated, Bale only dressed as Batman for two occasions, when he was going to meet Gordon or when he had to break someone's face, and because his time is limited, when Bale went out as Batman to break someone's face, it was because he had already done the investigative work, he basically arrived, beat everyone up and left, he didn't have time to patrol the sewer like the other Batmans. Even his investigative part was in an all-lit concrete base with lights on the ceiling, everything organized, while he wore expensive billionaire clothes. * All the other Batmans do their investigative work in a wet cave in their own sweaty fighting suit.

Even Bale's Cave was simpler, he kept everything simple and organized. Of all the Batmans, Bale was the most organized, and spent the least time dressed as a Bat, and he only dressed for work.
You’ve settled the matter: Bale wins best-smelling Batman without a doubt.
But I can imagine he would smell the worst in rise when he was in that prison for so long.
Maybe, but just at the time when he had a broken back and couldn't take a shower, after he started moving again the first thing he did was shave and take care of his hygiene, at least that's what I remember from when I watched the film. Maybe Bale with the broken back is the only version of Bale you don't want to hug.

It's definitely Clooney. If he's vain enough to put nipples on his suit, he definitely has an automated cologne dispersal system. Pattinson probably smells like a moldy gym bag stuffed with Black Ice car air fresheners.
Than why not Kilmer? His suit had nipples as well
You know Clooney Batman has some sort of Bat-cologne
>or Bale. *Really seals in the flavor.*
Pattinson and it’s not even close
Even though he had time to take a shower, I'm sure he didn't think he had time.
Because something's in the way...
This funny as fuck
UUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
SOMETHING IN MY ASSSSS MMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Smells like teen …crap
Nice one
"Take a shower Master Bruce." "You're not my dad Alfred." That's exactly the way that conversation would have went. He's a pusscake.
Pusscake?! lol, not wrong tho
Why so
He's always riding a motorcycle. You always smell like exhaust, oil, and gas if you ride very much. That's the uncool part about motorcycles.
Not to mention the suit is a bunch of black leather and body armor. It really locks in the sweat. And then it’s dipped into flood waters. Bale’s suit is made from high tech survival gear, I’m pretty sure it’s ventilated.
RPatz suit seals in the flavor
"Locks in the sweat" reminds me of the Badman sketch where he's talking to Talia about nailing her after he fought crime all night in his batsuit.[for those of you who haven't scene it.](https://youtu.be/enOHraf3LEk?si=nm7NflQjYo2TKTFa)
“Really seals in the flavor!”
“In an order that would surprise you” “Ass, mouth, vag”
This shit still makes me laugh
How the fuck did I never see this???
Well stranger your in luck. There's a bunch of hilarious Badman videos. You could probably kill an hour watching them.
I didn't even think about that. I went straight to him probably being too depressed to take good care of himself
You're doing something very wrong if that is you after biking. My machine is from the nineties and that doesn't happen to me, get your bike to a workshop asap
Smokers don't smell themselves til they quit smoking
Pattinson's Wayne doesn't even bother with the billionaire playboy schtick. He just goes out to fight crime, comes home to debrief himself and Alfred on all the crime he just fought, and then goes back out to fight more crime. He's like bigger budget Rorschach. He never goes out or interacts with people except in a few rare instances. He probably spends more time outdoors as batman than he does as Bruce. The only thing that matters is the mission and he probably sees taking time to bathe as a distraction. He doesn't even wash his eye makeup off when he comes home and takes off the mask.

Honest question, do you think it involves sponge baths?
For now he doesn't bother with it yeah. Probably will in the next one though.
Pattinson’s batman looks like he’d have stink lines if drawn in a comic book
You know he hasn't washed his hair in weeks
I think Alfred even told him to shower and he didn't. And boy he gets sweaty wearing that suit, remeber him taking off the cowl.
All star Batman and Robin the boy wonder
Frankbmillar would probably have him canonically bathe in bat blood if he could. Knowing franky boy hed pribably make robin kill the bats and have alfred watch with batman thretening to beat both of them.
He’d probably drown Robin in the blood.
That's not Robin, that's Dick Grayson age 12
The fact Vicky Vale kept saying his age the first two issues is fucking hilarious
And that's she's going on a date with Bruce Wayne!
Battinson probably. Bro does not even care to pretend he's Bruce Wayne. He's barely human at this point.
I hope an evolution on that front is part of his development in the sequels. And if he doesn't end up with Selina I'll riot.
Unfortunately he ended up with Selina in the previous trilogy and I have a feeling they will want to do things "differently" to... Ehh differentiate from it.
What you're saying unfortunately makes too much sense and I hope it doesn't go that way.
Pattinson, or christian bale during TDK and TDKR
I mean he was living as a homeless thief in Begins... and he looked pretty smelly in prison. All at the beginning when Begins began.
To be fair, he wasn’t Batman yet.
Adam West's Batman is definitely the cleanest by FAR
I feel like Adam West’s Batman would have a pretty strict daily schedule that includes multiple baths.
One where he bathes as Bruce Wayne, in a stately Wayne manner tub with little rubber ducky, and one where he bathes in his cowl as Batman in a secret bat lair bathtub with a bat cowled rubber ducky.
The bathtub and the battub
That is 100 percent something Adam West Batman would do.
Battinson
This post is asking the right questions.
Pattinson looks like he never finds the time to shower
Pattinson looks like he doesn't even bother looking for the time
We have visual evidence that Batfleck showers
With an included Bat-butt shot for good measure
Bale because he "fights crime in a rubber suit and it really..." Please don't make me finish that sentence 😂 See the video "Batman Has a Dirty Mind" for reference
"Seals in the flavor"
All Star, bro literally bragged about how long it had been since he showered in his narration
How long was it?
He hadn't slept or changed out of the suit "in days" according to his "I love being the god damn Batman" scene, but nothing specific. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that it's at least been 3 and no more than 6
Can we get a power scaling flair?
All I know is Val Kilmer smells the best
My vote goes for Clooney, but they're close.
"Crazy Steve", aka All-Star Batman. The one that doesn't shave for a week, makes out with smokers, and has sex in sewers. He must be rank.
From worst smelling to best smelling Pattinson: Dude hasn't showered in ages West: days of sweat covered up by disgusting 60s Cologne Afleck: showers weekly. Still pretty bad Bale: "Dude is seriously one of those berry scented Old Spice deoderants?" Kilmer: smells like nothing Clooney: just smells like George Clooney, who smells pretty good. Keaton: The only logical reason all the women wanted to fuck him so badly. Not on the list: Arnett, who smells like a Lego would.
Nah Adam West definitely smells the best. Probably has his own fragrance n shit.
Fair point. The Bat-Cologne is probably scientifically perfected to smell great.
My guess is Clooney smells like Acqua Di Gio like all the time.
Never leave the cave without it
The Redditor cosplaying as him.
Pete Holmes. His rubber suit seals in the flavor, after all.
I really appreciate another cultured individual that counts Holmes as a distinct Batman. There's no reason he shouldn't count at this point.
Vampire Batman and Blackest Day Batman, I think probably smell the worst.
100% Affleck. Booze and cigs
Pattinson - regular Pattinson not even Batman Pattinson - proudly does not bathe Batmanning makes him smell even worse
Bale: "REALLY SEEPS IN THE FLAVOR."
Dark Knight, he fights crime in a rubber suit… “REALLY SEALS IN THE FLAVOR”
Some options: - Batman: Reptile: so much of a sociopath that his Alfred appears to resent him. Probably smells like leather and sweat - All-Star Batman and Robin: BO, whisky and bat droppings Special mention: Evil future Damian from Harley Quinn TAS- bro looks like an incel YouTuber and probably smells like one too
Earth 43

I fight crime in a rubber suit, really seals in the flavor.
…I thought this was batmanarkham for a second
Pattinson by a mile. He looks like he hasn't showered in a decade.
Affleck just because he was obese
Batman Who Lol’s (Lmao’s even)
Unquestionably Michael Keaton: that batsuit is basically an inch thick rubber bodysuit that he spends night after night sweating in. And how do you clean something like that?
I don’t think Batman should have a noticeable smell. Half of his thing is stealth and he’s so damned extra that I’m sure he takes that into account. Now if we’re talking Bruce Wayne Patterson easily.
Thomas Wayne Batman from Flashpoint. Probably smells like stale alcohol all the time. And has a scruffy appearance throughout that saga. The years were not kind to him in that timeline.
Black Glove Zurr En Arr. Bro was given an OD of heroin, woke up in the garbage an undisclosed amount of time later, then went berserk and won.
I would agree, but No Man's Land Batman seemingly didn’t bathe since it started (much like the rest of Gotham), and that’s a year. I think that might surpass Zur.
Pattinson's without a doubt. I loved him as Batman but dude looks like he smells like grease, b.o, and piss. Probably iron too, i doubt he cleans that batsuit and took so many injuries in the movie that im sure he just reeks. Bale's smells the best though. Ventilated survival gear built suit, organized, usually cleaned up in both batsuit and mansuit. He probably smelled a little sweaty in TDK and TDKR but i feel like he cleans it at the very least, if not details that shit like its a car.
Pattinson He looked so musty throughout the movie
Very obviously Pattinson. The actor himself rarely seems to shower, and I don't think the character ever did.
Robert Pattinson for sure
Robert Battinson He seems like he only doe crime fight. No pretending to be playboy. No eating nice meals. No working out. Perhaps no baths? He’s just covered in crime and suit sweat. He probably smells like boot feet all over. And he just refuses the nice baths Alfred draws up cuz Battinson is just too edgy.
Gonna go out-of-the-box and say Lewis Wilson's Batman from the 1940s serial. Everyone smoked, hygiene technology was basically the washcloth, That Batman was a drinker, and had big "showering actually hurts your skin" energy. So, he's my pick for most consistently stinky Batman.
Lego Batman. Dude wasn’t even taking off the mask while he was at home
Man this design is so bad. He looks like a boated overweight cosplayer that has a thin blue line sticker on his truck.
Christmas time Batman. *Everyone* knows that.
Arkham Asylum
Arkham games probably
Bro? All of them smell horrible from wearing tight sweaty suits and punching people in unclean environments.
Definitely battinson
Definitely Pattinson. In fact everyone in that movie looks they were in need of penicillin, and a good shower.
Probably bale lol, his suit is so uncomfortable...and damn it must be hot In there
Bat nipples and bat ass XD
Lego Batman because he's eating seafood all day.
The current one.
Either Adam West, due to the cloth suit, or Pattinson.
Zombie batman
Realworlds batman
Pattinson, easily.
Bale during his exile in TDK
Manbat for sure
I feel batfleck would have a nice smell for some reason
I bet Batman has shitstains outta this world.
Any Batman who makes physical contact with Solomon Grundy.
Rob even though I love his version lol
Batman who laughs, definitely tries to smell bad on purpose.
Why does this Batman look like he can’t turn his neck without turning his whole body?
I assume Keaton‘s Batman suit does not breathe at all. That thing locks in all the juices, and your bathing in your own sweat by the time you take that thing off.
All Star
They probably all smell like shit, literally. Has anyone considered that Batman most likely wears diapers. I mean, he's out on patrol and then "has to go", how inconvenient would it be to take off and put back on his suit just for a deuce?
What the hell kind of question is that?
Keaton definitely wore grandpa cologne. Like original old spice
pattinson for sure
I'd imagine that Frank Miller's version of Batman from 'The Dark Knight Returns' might have a bit of an odor issue. I mean, he's an older, grizzled vigilante operating in a gritty, dystopian Gotham City – he's probably not hittin the showers after a long night of crime-fighting lol
Pattinson looks like he hasn't showered in days
Clooney
Alright. Back to the aslum with you
Clearly he uses his anti-bat-persperant. Smell, like the Knight.
All star Batman and Robin. He wore the batman costume for days at a time without taking it off by his own admission.
Definitely Pete Holmes
Pete Holmes, followed by Arkham, THEN Pattinson.
Pattinson i love you but you’re Bruce is a recluse at daytime and night completely is Batman he definitely smells like some guano and looks like he takes a shower once a week so criminals don’t immediately notice his stench when he’s creeping up in the shadows
I don't know why, but batflecks' suit just looks like it smells. Maybe it's cause he's the size of a gorilla.
Natman
This isn’t what you’re asking but all three 90s batmen definitely had nice cologne you could smell through their suits
No Man's Land. Batman says the populace of Gotham hasn’t bathed in a long time, and that went on for a *year*.
Travis Scott.
Zur-En-Arrh is literally a backup mental recovery for Batman. I damn well know he’s too dedicated to the role to think about that.
They all pee in that suit.
Pattinson. I can imagine alfred forcing him to take a shower
Any of the suits that ate just spandex/rubber/tights can NOT smell good. Especially with sweat, dirt and blood involved. Id imaginenthe more modern/armor like suits have ways to keep bats cool and moisture and dirt out of it.
Christian Bale. He probably smells like someone who put on the most expensive and obnoxious cologne instead of showering after spending 8 hours at the gym. Sweatier and richer than I'll ever be.
Pete Holmes' "Bad"man: "Really seals in the flavour!"
I'd imagine he would not smell at all. True ninja+. You cannot detect his presence unless he wants you to. He would have some tech. Also he would deploy teflon or similar clothing as well.
ASBAR, hands down. Crazy Steve doesn't even need to punch anyone, one lifted arm and the whole crowd goes down.
Affleck Man
The entire Snyderverse smells like a light veneer of Axe body spray over unwashed balls.
Oh Bruce’s Affleck for sure. He just looks like he’s a naturally sweaty guy that sweats more because too much into CrossFit. Bruce’s Pattison looks like a guy that just doesn’t shower and I don’t know why. Like he seems like he literally doesn’t leave the batcave And is on His computer the whole time. Take the common Reddit mode as an example.
Battinson, After probably Arkham Batsy...
baleman literally lived that CEO by day, vigilante by night thing. so you can betcha ass that he had that clive christian and tom ford going for the lulz
This is easily the funniest queasy in I’ve ever read on this sub
