It honestly bugs me how much I hate King's Batman because 90% of the readers seem to absolutely love it.

Nice. I've been meaning to get the new Stray Bullets. I haven't read anything after the original series. How is Infidel? Originally Posted by LordJulius

I'm of the ilk who loved Morrison's run, but didn't like Snyder's at all.......What little I've read of King's work on Batman, I thought was somewhat average. Originally Posted by Balakin

Stray Bullets might be the most consistently great series I know. No dip in quality at all, so if you liked the original series, you should get the new one as well (the tpb above is the second new one; get „Killers“ first as it introduces the characters in this). Originally Posted by awayne83

I don't think that I've read any of King's Batman yet. Where does he pick up?

Rebirth. There are 2 deluxes out but they intersect with events which is kinda crap if you don't care about those. I've tried to read just the Batman issues of Night of the monstermen and it was just and awful, inconsequential mess. Originally Posted by Enigma

Crossovers and required reading are my pet hate in comics. Don't get me wrong, I like big events or well thought out crossovers, but I hate the push to get me to read other comics that I don't actually want to read... Originally Posted by Balakin

to be fair, it's only like 2 or 3 issues in the first deluxe (not sure about the second, I've quit reading after the first couple of issues). You still have the main batman story uninterrupted (mostly) it's just those tie ins in the middle. Originally Posted by Enigma

You also have the button crossover with the flash in the second deluxe.

Bought some trades I probably wouldn't have since IST is basically giving them away at 70-90% off

I hope so! I do enjoy being pleasantly surprised by series. Invisible Republic, Rumble and Cannibal being some recent-ish examples Originally Posted by Enigma
