10 Insane Alternative Versions Of Batman You Won't Believe

In John Cleese’s satire, ‘Superman: True Brit,’ Superman lands in Weston-super-Mare and becomes a terribly British Superman named Colin. The Batman of this universe, however, is even better.

Known as ‘Bat-Man’ in this timeline, he's a villain and faces off against the insufferably British Superman. As a young man, Colin attended a university where he played as part of the university’s cricket team and, while playing a game of cricket, the bat slipped from Colin’s grasp and flew through the air, tragically impaling the bowler. Colin’s team lost as the bowler was carried off smiling, stating “It only hurts when I laugh,” as the blood gushed from his wound.

The bowler returned years later as a villain against Superman, still with the cricket bat lodged into his chest, proclaiming himself to be the Bat-Man. Aren't puns lovely?

And for an awfully British Superman, you need an awfully British nemesis. Instead of asking him if he bleeds, Bat-Man threatened Superman with reporting him to Inland Revenue, now known as HM Revenue & Customs, for not filling out the paperwork as a technical migrant.
