Praise for Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo's BATMAN: "This is a book you need to read. Whether you're a fan of comics or not.""--Huffington Post""One of the best Batman runs in the history of the character."""--"IGN""A+. The hero's got personality (and is unafraid to release a quip as sharp as a Batarang), a horde of supervillains, gumption to spare and a whole host of high-tech gadgetry to suitably impress longtime fans and those new to the Dark Knight."""--"USA Today""Brilliant. This is a modernization of Silver Age optimism replacing camp with today's dialogue expectations of introspection and smart wit. Pure comic gold."""--"Ain't it Cool News"
