The 1966 television show Batman oozes charm and insanity in equal measure. Some of that delicious mixture can be found in the hilarious names Batman gives his devices, each helpfully labeled for the benefit of the audience.

@Batman66labels, run by Aaron Reynolds, has spent the past two months diligently screencapping and collating every label ever seen on the show—from the mundane:
