The provided caption: "This is what happens when 'Batman' is written by Liberace. Also, Robin can call it red all he wants, but according to our Crayola box set, Batman's costume is actually pretty-princess-pink." This was only the first entry in "The 20 Most Ridiculous Batman Comics Ever Released," which is here:

That list is fairly amusing, but the best one I've found on Cracked is this one:

I can't describe it without giving away the funny parts (it must be a surprise), but I can say that it's pretty funny as hell.
As for the video portion of this episode, I've been finding humor in the YouTube stylings of the Angry Video Game Nerd. He's not the most eloquent fellow in the world but I can appreciate what he does. It's his job to play very bad games for the NES, SNES, Genesis, and Atari (and, soon, the N64) and review them...with very much cursing involved. I've never played a lot of the games he reviews (the older games I do play are the good ones he ignores) but that doesn't make his reviews any less funny for me and that should be the same for any gamer. As long as you like video games (you don't even have to play them regularly), you'll appreciate this guy. This video is my favorite one, featuring a review of a game accessory (the Power Glove from Nintendo). The Nerd tests it on several NES games and, needless to say, it does NOT go well (WARNING! EXCESSIVE CURSING AHEAD!):
The hilarious "Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest" and "Top Gun" jokes will be funny to anyone who has played those games before, but for those who haven't and/or don't know what they are, here's the Nerd's review of them to help clarify some things (WARNING STILL IN EFFECT!):
Trust me, all of the videos this guy makes are great, so you should check out his YouTube channel if you liked these. It doesn't matter if you've never heard of the games he reviews. He'll make you regret learning about them and never want to play them. Oh, joy of joys.
PS: Losing to Glass Joe is quite a calamity:
As Cracked put it: "Look at him, it's like he thinks there's a guy out in the audience with a rifle on him." (For the fantastic list that came from, follow this link):
