Even Evil Has Standards: Some of them can have their moments where they put aside their criminal, anti-social behavior to do what's right.They're actually one of the more tight-knit rogues galleries in The DCU, after The Flash's Rogues, happily playing card games with each other or swapping stories about trying to kill Batman. Joker in Death of the Family clearly maintains that Batman's Rogues are the real Bat-Family, and not their sidekicks. Dysfunctional Family / Evil Is One Big, Happy Family: Depends on the writer and/or the age of the comics, but the Batman's Rogues often are portrayed in this way, especially the regular Arkham inmates. On occasions when they mob him en masse he takes them out one-by-one easily. Conservation of Ninjutsu: When one of the rogues acts alone they always stand a fair chance of beating Batman- at least, they manage to get him into the deathtrap of the day before he brings them in. Blackgate Penitentiary (Gotham's actual prison, most of the time) only fares better because few of them end up there to start with. In Batman: Arkham Asylum, the Joker even manages to use the asylum as an evil lair. The Joker and Scarecrow have stated that they feel that Arkham is not so much a prison but a place to relax in between Evil Plans, and it's implied that the rest of the rogues view Arkham in a similar manner.
