SEE IT: Two Spider-Men come to Batman’s aid amid vulgar Times Square confrontation for cursing at kids
A passerby complained the street performer was cursing in front of children and had shoved his son. Two web-slingers arrived to separate a furious Dark Knight from his new nemesis. ‘He think he gangsta, but he ain't no gangsta.’
It was a very dark knight for a Times Square Batman who went into an expletive-filled meltdown after a recent confrontation with a passerby.
Luckily, two Spider-Men arrived to calm down the superhero before his new nemesis could taunt him with "Na na na na na na na na Batman!"
The altercation was captured in an onine video posted Friday that starts with a man dressed in dark clothing confronting the costumed superhero and then informing a police officer Batman was cursing in front of children. He also alleged Batman pushed his son, which the superhero denied.
It's at this point an officer arrives and Batman later threatens the man, telling him to "back up. Don't talk. Back up!"
Police respond to the disturbance involving the superhero in Times Square.

But it was Batman who backed up upon the command of a police officer. Luckily, two Spider-Men arrive to try to save the day.
Robin was nowhere to be found.
But it's too late for the caped crusader, who is obviously very upset that he was talked to in such a manner and threatened to kick the man's “a--.”
"You think you're tough, man. You ain't got nothing on me," he shouts back at the villain. "You think you're that freaking bad. Let's go!"
Spider-Man eases the tension before the caped crusader blows his cool.

It got worse.
"Get the f-k out of here," he said, huffing around in a series of half-circles. "Gangsta wannabe motherf--ker. He think he gangsta, but he ain't no gangsta."
"He's not," assured a Spider-Man.
"I know a gangster when I see one. S--t. I know a gangster when I see one. All that ain't s--t. That's just performance right there.”
The superheros team up in Times Square.

The superheros team up in Times Square.
This is not the first time that costumed performers have had problems with customers at the popular tourist destination.
In April, Osvaldo Quiroz-Lopez, 33, was dressed as Cookie Monster and went off on a 2-year-old boy and his mother.
"You are a b----, your son is a bastard and your stuff is trash," he said, according to court papers. He was charged with assault and endangering the welfare of a child. At least three similar incidents have been reported this year.
The people in costume mainly work for tips, and the job can be difficult as they brave the weather conditions and deal with people who are less than courteous. The city has considered some measures to regulate or eliminate the street performers, whose numbers have exploded since the city stopped fining them in 2011.
