After rescuing San Francisco from the grip up of the Riddler and the Penguin, Batkid traveled this morning to New York City -- "the real Gotham," as Mayor Michael Bloomberg said -- to take on the Joker and save rapper/producer Pitbull in a takedown arranged by Good Morning America.

Although the GMA hosts behaved as if they're never interacted with children before, the segment was nice for the spotlight it shined on Miles Scott -- the 5-year-old who has battled leukemia for three years -- and the work of the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Also, the morning show's set was transformed into a pretty good facsimile of the Batcave from the '60s Batman TV series, with the Batmobile parked outside.

"He's in remission so this has kind of been like the after-party for him, a way to kick it off," Miles' father Nick said. "Chemo is all he's ever known. That's the life that he's known but this is kind of a way to celebrate the ending."
