If you really want to explore Batman's pathology, check out
what Dr. Frederic J Wertham wrote about him in Seduction of

"No doubt Boo Boo was considered, but Yogi already had a

Now Yogi is a sociopath as main character. He is a career
criminal who flaunts authority, while Boo Boo tries to get
him to reform. Of course, like most moral halves of pairs, he
still shares in the bounty, partaking in those picnic
baskets.
