    Englehart
    O'Neil
    Miller

    Honorable mention: Loeb

    Also: This list would've been the same if we were allowed to include Kane or even Finger.

    It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?

    Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

    1. Grant Morrison.
    2. Dennis O'Neil.
    3. Paul Dini.

    Honourable mention: Frank Miller. All Star Batman and Robin really works against Miller, ditto for The Dark Knight Strikes Again despite him writing Batman: Year One/The Dark Knight Returns.

    Comics were definitely happier, breezier and more confident in their own strengths before Hollywood and the Internet turned the business of writing superhero stories into the production of low budget storyboards or, worse, into conformist, fruitless attempts to impress or entertain a small group of people who appear to hate comics and their creators. -- Grant Morrison, 2008

    Miller - he's crap now, but Dark Knight Returns and Year One are essentials.
    Loeb - Long Halloween and Dark Victory are also Bat-reading essentials.
    ...get back to me on three...

    Three writers that come to mind when you say Batman to me are Paul Dini, Grant Morrison and...... Jeph Loeb.
