Desde que Batman apareció por primera vez en Detective Comics #27 (mayo de 1939), su elenco de apoyo se ha expandido para incluir a otros superhéroes, y se ha convertido en lo que ahora se llama la " Bati-familia ". Como ocurre con la mayoría de los superhéroes, a lo largo de los años se ha ido introduciendo un elenco de enemigos recurrentes de la familia Batman, a los que se hace referencia colectivamente como la " galería de delincuentes " de Batman. [1] [2] [3] [4] Muchos personajes de la galería de delincuentes de Batman que son criminales dementes se convierten en pacientes del Asilo Arkham después de ser detenidos.
Supervillanos y criminales temáticos
Los siguientes personajes ficticios se enumeran en orden alfabético por el nombre de su personaje de supervillano. También se enumeran la primera aparición de cada personaje y breves biografías de cada personaje ficticio, respetando sus historias y características ficticias en el Universo DC .

La Liga de Asesinos
La Liga de Asesinos, que apareció por primera vez en Strange Adventures #215, [144] es un equipo de asesinos altamente entrenados que fue fundado por Ra's al Ghul y que a menudo ha pasado de trabajar bajo su organización a trabajar independientemente de ella. El grupo ha sido liderado en ocasiones por el Dr. Ebeneezer Darrk, el Sensei, Lady Shiva y Cassandra Cain . [Nota 5] [Nota 6]
Los enemigos de la era Morrison (2007-2011)

Villains from other rogues galleries
When these villains debuted, they fought other heroes before fighting Batman.
Teams
The following is a list of fictional teams, groups of supervillains, gangs, and organized crime families that are enemies of the Batman family, listed in alphabetical order by name. The first appearance and a brief fictional biography of each team is also listed.
Mobsters and plainclothes criminals
Besides his infamous rogues gallery of supervillains, Batman has also faced more "ordinary" enemies, such as assassins, mobsters and terrorists.
In alphabetical order (with issue and date of first appearance)
Two of Batman's mobster foes have donned costumes and crossed over to become supervillains:
Hangman: A mysterious serial killer who murders police officers on every holiday of the year (during the Dark Victory storyline), leaving behind a version of the children's word game "Hangman" (with key letters missing) with each new victim. All of the victims are police officers who, in one way or another, helped Harvey Dent rise to his position of District Attorney. In the end, the Hangman is revealed to be Sofia Falcone Gigante, daughter of the late crime boss Carmine Falcone.
Holiday: A mysterious serial killer who murders mobsters and others over a year (during The Long Halloween storyline). The killer's weapon is a .22 pistol (using a baby bottle nipple as a silencer) with the handle taped and the serial number filed off. Also, every crime takes place on a holiday and a small trinket representing each holiday is left behind at the scene. Alberto Falcone, the youngest son of Carmine Falcone, admits to being the Holiday killer, but then Harvey Dent says there were two Holiday killers. Batman deduces that since he killed Vernon on Halloween with a .22 pistol, he was, in fact, the second Holiday; however, later in a lone monologue Gilda Grace Dent reveals herself as the second (or technically first) Holiday, who was responsible for the first three murders.
Corrupt cops and government officials
In alphabetical order (with issue and date of first appearance)
Antiheroes and reformed supervillains
The following is a list of Batman enemies who have reformed and are more often depicted as allies of the masked vigilante than enemies.

He fits remote-controlled cars with bombs to destroy buildings, while also sending out anonymous demands for ransom money (which he plans to spend on more toys), threatening to bomb more buildings if his demands are not met.

Reception
The Joker, Batman's archenemy, has been called one of the greatest villains in Batman's rogues gallery,[1] art by Brian Bolland
Batman's rogues gallery has received critical acclaim, cited by many journalists as one of the greatest rogues galleries in all of comic books.[1][365]Newsarama ranked Batman's villains as the second-greatest comic book rogues gallery of all time, only preceded by that of Spider-Man, stating that "the Dark Knight Detective is one of comics' most enduring, most iconic, and most popular characters, and none of that would be possible without the denizens of Gotham City's dense and dangerous underworld. Batman may be a household name, but the Joker, the Penguin, Mr. Freeze, Catwoman, Two-Face, and the Riddler are just as recognizable."[366]
The internet blog io9 observed that "much of the appeal of Batman is that, unlike other superheroes, he's simply a person who has pushed himself to the edge of his natural limits. The flipside of that, though, is that the villains he faces are also by and large simply people with a single, notable obsession—and that's why they're so much more interesting than the usual set of villains."[365] According to What Culture!, "Batman's villains stand in stark contrast to the other rogues galleries in comics lore; they're an unusual collection of freaks who generally blame the Dark Knight for their existence to begin with. Batman villains are usually cut off from reality, often coming to terms with a deranged part of their psyche—mirroring the darkness and split that also defines the Bat."[367]HitFix praised Batman's rogues gallery, stating that "Great heroes are defined by the villains they face, and no group of evil-doers, murderers, criminals and psychopaths are greater than those stalking Gotham City. From murderous clowns, to cerebral assassins, to brutish monsters, Batman has a literal murderer's row of foes that constantly test his crime fighting acumen."[3]
