    Why won't DC use Bette Kane?

    Batman Prey is the Post Crisis equivalent of Golden Age Hugo Strange debut right? I mean that both are his first appearance? Then Monster Men happen after?

    Monster Men is more of it's own continuity really. Maybe they tried to fit it in, I don't know, but really they're two different introductions to Hugo Strange.
    Prey is the better of the two, but Monster Men is really good too. I'd definitely recommend reading both if you like Hugo Strange or just good Batman stories.

    Oh right LOTDK was in the 90s. The classic remakes like Monster Men, Mad Monk, Man Who Laughs, Loeb mysteries and Robin Batgirl Year One were in 2000s.

    I think it's a bot? It's their first/only post, I don't know. If it is a person, hopefully they'll shine some clarity on what they're trying to ask. But smart money's on a bot.

I'd also argue that Court of Owls or Zero Year would be better starting points than Endgame, as the latter does refer back to Death of the Family and Graveyard Shift (a bit).
    I started with Morrison's Batman and Robin after watching Son of Batman. The comics shop guy pointed me to the TP of the 1st volume when I asked for comics with Damian Wayne. Enjoyed it and sure there was a few characters, issues referenced that I didn't quite get but I wasn't out of my depth. I then started reading back issues guided by the notes in the ref boxes.
    I frequented the central Library so often in that first year of discovering comics lol but I will admit that I didn't tackle RIP, the main Batman title or The Return till after I completed B&R, Son of Batman, Batman Inc, Battle for the Cowl, RR and the Resurrection of Ra's.

    It's more than 9 years since I picked up my first Trade and I'm still going back to Morrison's Bat saga since it gets better the more old batman comics I read the more I get the refs and understand just how much Batman lore/history is connected in the saga.
