See batman upset by humiliation (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abasement

'humiliation' is the definition.
(abasement is a kind of humiliation)

'see batman upset' is the wordplay.
'upset' indicates anagramming the letters.
'see'+'batman'='seebatman'
'seebatman' with letters rearranged gives 'ABASEMENT'.

'by' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for abasement that I've seen before include "Putting down" , "shame" , "belittling" , "that one humbly displays" , "Mean beast (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
