Hi all,
Ok so I was a huge fan of Morrison's run on Batman.. coming here every month to read everyone's thoughts and analysis.. reading older silver age comics it referenced.. it was like a huge puzzle to put together and had so many impactful moments it really drew me back into comics as I had been away for several years.
Since then it hasn't been as fun and I wonder what are the best Batman books?
I thought Snyder was OK (I honestly liked his Black Mirror stuff with Jock better) and while I did love the art cinematic storytelling style of Capullo it kind of felt like Snyder was cribbing some of his stuff from Morrison some of the time.
Now we have Tom King and for the life of me I don't see what everybody else is seeing. I haven't been able to get into his work at all, I find his storytelling kind of confusing (ironic I know) and it just doesn't seem to connect. A couple lines here or there hit home but overall there's this jumbled approach and constant use of captioning that interrupts the story flow for me.
So I guess the question is what am I missing about Tom King? And also what are the best of the best Batman runs or books Post-Morrison that I maybe I have missed??
THANK YOU!
