Brandon here from My Comic Universe. Batman is one of our all-time
favorite comic book characters and we want to go over seven of our favorite Batman comic book and graphic novel story lines
It is almost too difficult to pick your favorite Batman stories
We just want to go over some of our favorites. NUMBER 7: Batman Earth One by Geoff Johns and Gary Frank
This is a great new and different take on the Dark Knight
It is also an original graphic novel so you can pick up the first two volumes and not have to wait each week for the next issue
Our favorite part of this take on Batman is that he is inexperienced, sloppy,
and he makes mistakes.
NUMBER 6: Batman Birth of the Demon written by Denny, O'Neil
This tells the story of one of our all-time favorite villains Ra's al Ghul
NUMBER 5: Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth written by Grant Morrison and art by Dave McKean
This graphic novel just visually looks different than any other Batman comic we have read
It's all about Batman being trapped inside Arkham Asylum with all of the villains he put in there
Number 4: A Death In The Family
Not to be confused with the new 52 story Death of the Family. A Death in the Family is a four-issue
Batman comic book storyline written by Jim Starlin and illustrated by Jim Aparo what's interesting about this is
that fans at the time voted for the outcome of the storyline
There is a big death
So if you haven't read this one yet, check it out. NUMBER 3: Under the Red Hood
this one definitely had to make our list, and along with the comic book story arc
we are also recommending the animated movie based on the story. SPOILERS:
It is very popular for bringing back long dead Batman
character Jason Todd. It is also just an awesome Red Hood story. If you aren't a fan of Red Hood yet,
you definitely will be after this. NUMBER 2: Hush - written by Jeph Loeb and art by Jim Lee
This is a fun story and it brings in so many of Batman's rogues
It's a great mystery on who the villain hush actually is
The art in this story arc is just simply amazing and the way Killer Croc is drawn is
unbelievable! Covering Batman issues 608 to 619.
You can also pick up the trade paperback. One thing to note is the B variant for Batman #608 is
highly desired as this is the Jim Lee variant.
NUMBER 1: The Long Halloween. Another Jeph Loeb story with art by Tim Sale.
This is a story about a murderer nicknamed Holiday who commits a murder on each holiday, one per month.
It's a great mystery on who holiday actually is. This is a 13 issue
limited series, which is also available in trade paperback. The Long Halloween also tells the origin of Two-Face!
There's a lot to like in this story!
