Nearly Every Single One Of Batman's Bat-Gadgets, Ranked By How Useful They Are

"Where does he get all those wonderful toys?" (Joker, Batman.)

When you're an average, every day, non-super-powered human being, you need all the help you can get to fight crime. So what is a billionaire with his mind set on vengeance to do? Invent all best ass-kickery to take out the bad guys.

Whether it's specific to the foe (I've got to think the Bat-Heater comes out mainly when Mr. Freeze is in town), or a broader use tool like the batarang, all of these devices have their merits.
