Apart from funny scenes, weird costumes and absurd gadgetry, there was a mix of hilarious dialogues that made Batman a laughing stock of that time.
7. Hawkeye
Be it the comic book version or the one that we have often seen in Thor movies, Hawkeye is one funny superhero character in the universe. He has been in a team of goof balls which eventually means that even this character will spill some comic beans at times, and so he does. Hawkeye certainly knows how to not take himself too seriously at times and this is what makes him one lovable creature. Plus, the fact that he is one of the very few superheroes who actually look at a situation from the vision of a simple and normal guy makes his real enough to believe in.
6. The Riddler

The Riddler is the easiest of Batman’s villains to laugh at and the best part, he doesn’t disappoint his audience.

3. Spider Man
Now, Spider Man has always been written as a funny character, however, Tobey Maguire’s Spider Man was quite soft on his work. But then came the Amazing Spider Man and Andrew Garfield charmed his way into the character and made it completely relatable with the one in comic books. He was cocky and knew how to have fun while still being young.
2. Joker
Joker was a Joker by his name but one has to admit that he indeed is a funny character. Definitely more fun for you if Dark Humour interests you and tickles your funny bone. Joker can easily be considered the epitome of dark humour if there ever becomes one. Plus, there’s the iconic laugh of Joker that first seems funny and then transcends into terrifying the shit out of you.
