Batman: Gothic is really good, too.
Batman: Gothic is really good, too.
Looking for further recommendations. I've got/read; Year One, Long Halloween, Dark Victory, Hush, Dark Knight Returns, Court of Owls, Arkham Asylum, The Man Who Laughs and The Killing Joke.
I've going to pick up Knightfall, No Man's Land, Under The Red Hood, Death in the family. Am I missing anything obvious/must read?
Joker by Azzarello and Bermejo - especially if you liked Ledger's Joker in TDK, considering this was published before the movie the character design for Joker is eerily prophetic.
Batman: Prey by Moench - Easily one of my favorites.
Matt Wagner's Dark Moon Rising series, Batman and the Monster Men and Batman and the Mad Monk
Zero Year by Snyder, particularly the first half/Red Hood storyline. In my opinion better than his Court of Owls.
Obviously controversial around here but I've enjoyed the Earth One series a lot so I'd recommend them.
Has the contents of the Detective Comics: 80 Years of Batman - The Deluxe Edition been announced? Just want to know what's in said book and the price as well. Thanks/

#742 Post No Man's Land Gordon return to overhaul the understaffed GCPD
#27 Snyder's Remaster probably
Yeah, most of them fit an anniversary book like this. First or notable appearances of heroes and villains, some stories that examine Batman... A lot of this has been in other collections, especially the Batman Arkham collections and the Legend of Batman collections of author/artist showcase. The rest I don't know or never heard of and I'm sure never been collected.
So I guess if you haven't had the Arkham or Legend of Batman series, or if you want the 4 or so issues that's never been collected before, this will be a good place to start.

Hi Everyone, I’m a relatively new collector from the U.K and I was thinking of sending my Batman adventures 12 to CGC. I have never had anything CGC’d before and was wondering if it’s worth doing? As I don’t think it would be a high grade. Sorry if this isn’t where I’m
Supposed to post this. I’m
Brand new to this and this is my first post! Thanks everyone. B5E8BEC5-D5C4-48F6-9607-279DE3F8F10F.jpg
For the record, Batgirl didn't "take over" that series then. The issue just had a focus on her instead of Batman (also featured Catwoman, Poison Ivy, and Harley Quinn).
As for "CGC", that's the Certified Guaranty Company which is an independent grading service on the condition of old comic book issues.

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum I'm sorry if this has been posted /asked before, but I couldn't immediately find it.
Is there some sort of timeline to be found of Batman?
I'm currently watching Gotham and I was wondering if there's a certain comic, series, movie,... That follows from here on?
I've read lots of comics back in the day, but in no particular order, just by release order.
