Who is the Best Batman writer

[batnbreakfast]

I haven't read The Dark Knight Strikes Again or any of his recent work, where does Frank Miller state that about suicide? Could I be forgetting something from TDKR, Year One or AllStarBatmanandRobin?

The things I remember about War of Jokes and Riddles are much more than just what you describe. There is the whole Bruce and Selina conversation, the Kite Man story and the final confrontation full of twists and turns.

And what older story had Thomas Wayne tell his son not to become Batman and find happiness?

Its from YEAR ONE. Right before a bat crashes through the window. King just made it happen earlier.

That take on Kite-Man was too dark for me. There's enough tragedy in the Batbooks already.

Flashpoint. Geoff Johns did it first. The Button is a sequel.
