DC Comics Multimedia General - A crisis of infinite fuck ups
The Superman radio show is pretty good, it's where the Daily Planet and Perry White get their names. The episodes are 15 minutes long each so that section was rushed to get to the cliffhanger but it is a well written serial adventure show and Bud Collyer has the best voice of any Superman.
It is also the first time Batman and Superman crossed over with each other.
It is in the public domain so it is pretty easy to find on Youtube.

Canonically most villains and criminals are afraid of Batman, but realistically I wonder how many would actually be scared of him if they knew for a fact he wouldn't kill them. That should I think remove a lot of his intimidating aura.
I think Batman has abused in interrogation the fact the villains think he would kill them as an intimidation tactic:
Realistically, they would be terrified of the man who can break their bones in every which way even if they know he'll stop short of ending their suffering and settle for leaving them in a hospital bed. Batman's like an evil genie when you think about it.

Until they meet someone who has ran into Bats who has to use the Scooty Cart in the Wayne-Mart to get his Applesauce, Yogurt and Pudding for the rest of his life.

This was addressed in The Dark Knight, once the Joker started killing people the one mob boss pointed out that since criminals knew Batman wouldn't kill them there was no way anyone was going to risk telling him where the Joker was or what they were doing for him.
For all Joker's issues, he is a fantastic limiter as to what the rogues can do. He really prevents all of Batman's other foes from executing on their true potential.
I don't think that would work. I mean, WE know that Batman is just a man but the villains shouldn't know that. Goes double for the random goons.
If I were to write a "Batman" story, it would be a bunch of mooks that are at a bar and exchange stories about Batman. First guy thinks he is a vampire, second guy thinks he is a ghost, third guy thinks he is an alien and the fourth thinks he is a demon. All of them point to "powers" they have seen him demonstrate to prove their point. However, all agree on one thing: He is no human.
That is what the common, superstitious criminal should believe about Batman. The idea that he is mortal shouldn't cross their minds.
In their fear of him, all of them believe he is a bloodthirsty scourge with an immense kill count. None of them can recall him killing anyone they know but all of them are certain he is a killer as they have seen the broken bodies of friends and colleagues, heard their bloodcurdling screams and held their hands now that their bodies no longer work as they once did. And all are thankful for the fact that they escaped from the talons of certain death.
I am of the opinion that the fear Batman causes stems greatly from the fact that they assume he is supernatural. They don't just panic because he is a strong man, they panic because they think he is a monster from their nightmares. They are sure that he is so much stronger and I think the fact that Superman and other heroes are around also serves to reinforce that. We know that there are aliens, demigods and supers, why is a vampire/werewolf/demon/whatever man all that unlikely?

I ageee in that people mythologizing Batman works best. That’s why he uses that mask on the first place, he wants criminals to fear him. And it makes for better stories.
Admittedly people should still be afraid of being hospitalized while technically alive, but realistically, I think after 4-5 years or so of him being around, people would start catching on he never actually kills anyone, and that he might be human after all.
Don't get me wrong, I am not advocating for that to happen. Batman stories shouldn’t be realistic, so I am fine with villains fearing him all though out his career.

They would probably entertain that he doesn't kill as often but they should still be persuaded he is a bloodthirsty demon. Fear and darkness can make you see and think stuff in a scary manner. Objects look bigger and scarier. There has been research on this. Here:
This video is on Mothman (the cryptid) but the point is explained.

Imo, Batman should take precautions to make it so that others assume that he is a monster. Leave vampire bites on the occasional mook, summon bats etc etc. It can work.

I think I just figured out yet another reason mooks fear Batman: Even if he doesn't kill, they'll be subjected to the tender mercies of Gothamese doctors. You know, a quarter of which are villains, mad scientists and worse. No wonder they're all scared of Bats when not only will recovery be expensive, but your favorite back-alley doctor might suddenly decide to inject an experimental super-serum drug into you, ensuring that this time, there won't be severe side-effects.
In a separate universe like the Pattinson Batman one, sure.
In the DC universe, with all of the alien and supernatural entities fucking shit up all the time, why would anybody think Batman is a human?
The Justice League is full of superpowered weirdos and Batman is just one of them to a regular person.
You could explain the endless times that the Joker is let go to continue to maim and kill with a small tweak. Just say that Gotham is in the UK, then everything becomes explicable by our legal system.
Usual Batman villains are set to appear, like Joker, Riddler, and the Mad Hatter... the last one being made a woman for some reason.
While I don't think it's as egregious as what they did to Penguin in the first season, I don't get why they felt the need to genderswap Mad Hatter when there's already a female Batman villain based off Alice in Wonderland: Beth Kane, AKA, Alice.
To shit on men/fans, duh. Same reason to turn Harley into a 2nd rate Joker plus an ugly asian that kills rich people "just because". Which makes me wonder how this Joker will work when nu-Harley makes him redundant. An abusive relationship (male to female at least) won't be allowed in Current Year, and no stronk women can't be made lesser compared to men, so either the two awkwardly ignore each other, or they have an equal work relationship despite how odd that would be.

You assume the writers thought that far/cared. Hell, there's a woman who identifies herself as Joker's daughter that I dunno if she ever showed up in animation.
Also, it took 2 years for 10 more miserable episodes with subpar quality. Meanwhile, TAS Bats had like 20 episodes per year.

She showed up in one of the worst TV shows ever made, Gotham Knights (no, for the umpteenth time, not the video game, nothing to do with it).
Oddly enough, she was one two cast members who could actually act. Also, fwiw, Joker's daughter is not the daughter of Joker, she is the daughter of Harvey Dent. For reasons.
