Consider since Rebirth, the last 6 months, or last 6 issues, whatever you want to use as the measuring.
Which Batman title has been better in your opinion?
For me Detective has been way more fun of a read, love the entire team storytelling.
Thoughts?

I prefer Batman personally.
Im really enjoying the current stories there, and while I do still really like TEC the current arks havent been my favourite. I think im not liking it as much just now cause im not such a Tim fan.

I prefer Batman over 'Tec as well. I dropped 'Tec three issues in and nothing I've heard about it since then has made me decide that was a wrong decision.

Check out Lion Forge's Catalyst Prime Universe. Its the best damned superhero verse in comics. Diverse characters and interesting stories set in a universe where anyone can be a hero. And company that prides itself on representation both in the comics themselves and in the people behind them.

I prefer Detective since it's been far more consistent and I have fewer problems with it. And I like its cast more.

Batman hands down, and I am a huge Tim Drake fan.

Tec by a huge margin. Tynion doesn't hit the highs of King, but he's very, very consistent, and I've liked the art for Tec much better than Batman (though recently, with Batman getting Joelle Jones and Tec hitting a ton of fill-ins, that's been about even). I'm also a Batfamily fan first and foremost, so Tec is pretty much exactly my book. That being said, I do enjoy Batman - I love the BatCat romance, and King is able to hit some very good emotional points. But it's so inconsistent - I really get the feeling that King just isn't great at indefinite, really short-production-deadline books.

King's Batman has been much better lately, but 'Tec is still better, IMO.

Define "better".
I don't buy either series these days (don't enjoy either writer), but I stuck with Detective Comics longer than I could tolerate King's Batman.

Both are pretty disappointing but Batman is the more palatable. In fact Batman recently got really enjoyable but the Wonder Woman arc set it back got me thinking I might not want to support this

Batman.
I read the first trade of Detective, and wasn't blown away by anything. I'm not a fan of most of the cast anyway, and I actively disliked what was done with Jacob Kane. Nothing that came after looks like it will change my mind.
