Hear me out.

A Batman story where he's a dark, vicious antihero... but everyone else in Gotham are Adam West Era goofballs.

Joker is painting smiles on the butts of every politician, when suddenly Batman breaks in and grimdarks three henchmen. Everyone's like "WHOA BATMAN, WTF"
Even the hostages are like, "Can I ride home with Joker...?"
It's up to this roster of milquetoast villains, the absolute muffins who work in the mayor's office, a precocious librarian, and one extremely confused Robin to try to get Batman some freaking help.

Robin: Do you want to talk about it...?
Batman: I WANT TO PUNCH ABOUT IT
Gordon: Do we have to arrest the Batman?
Mayor: Arkham refused to take him. I floated the idea and the warden quit before I finished.
Riddler: Riddle me this: if we all quit crime, will he quit too?
Batman: *from outside* VENGEANCE CAN HEAR YOU ALL PLOTTING IN THERE
