I just want to know what Batman story is everyone’s favorite, mine is the court of owls.

I know this is a lame answer, but Year One is still my favourite Batman story. The writing is great, the artwork is perfect for the tone, it doesn’t drag on for too many issues and it has a great ending.

Yeah, same here. Same reasons. Also, have I mentioned before that your DCU icon is great?
I really love Darwyn Cooke’s Batman: Ego. My favorite comic book meditation on the character.

That’s definitely a hidden gem that needs more love. Darwyn Cooke was a master in his field.

Hm. Yesterday I might have said The Long Halloween, but I just read Kingdom Come for the first time last night. While I have some criticisms of the story, I have to say it’s some of the best characterization of Batman that I’ve seen. I guess it depends on whether we’re talking about which story is best within the realm of what we typically call “Batman stories,” or which story is best for its handling of Batman as a character himself.

Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader, Batman R.I.P., and the issue of Justice League where he knocked Guy Gardener out with one punch! Bwah-hah-hah

For a one-issue story, it has to be Night of the Stalker. If we’re talking about an arc, then I’d go with the “Broken Bat” section of Knightfall.

This is weird: RIP is one of my favorites (probably my second favorite, actually) but Hush is in my bottom twenty. Oh well, glad you got enjoyment out of both!

I like hush. But batman rebirth 37 is my favorite solo issue. It’s Bruce Wayne being as normal as he is going to get.
