Looking for a little fun? If you have a superhero-loving kid in your midst, they’ll love these Batman jokes and puns. We already know all the good Batman quotes. And they might even know some Supergirl quotes. But, what do you do when you don’t feel like being inspired and just need a laugh? You turn to jokes, of course. We left out (most of the) off-color jokes and skipped over anything that would make the female DC characters blush. These jokes are kid-friendly through-and-through. Good guys would approve, even if Batman does throw a mean ninja star.

Want even more laughs? We have a whole suite of jokes. From farm jokes to dinosaur jokes, we cover everything your child could possibly be interested in. And if they love a certain other orphaned vigilante? We have Harry Potter jokes, too!
