Question

what batman comics should i read im new to batman comics btw?

Answer 1

Shaman

Blind Justice

Dark Moon Rising

The Man Who Laughs

Prey

The Killing Joke

Catwoman When In Rome (spinoff of Dark Victory)

Son of the Demon

A Death In the Family

Arkham asylum A serious House on Serious Earth

Vengeance of Bane

Sword of Azrael

Knightfall

Prodical

Contagion

Legacy

Cataclysm

Aftershock

Road to No Man's Land

No Man's Land

New Gotham vols 1-2

Bruce Wayne Murderer/Fugitive- all three of these Legacy, No Man;s Land and Bruce Wayne Fugitive play right into Hush. Also A Death in the Family ties up loose ends in Hush for novice readers

As The Crow Flies

Under the Hood

War Games

War Crimes

Face the Face- read Infinite Crisis first which helps make the One Year Later stories for all heroes make sense.

Batman and Son

The Ressurrectiom of Ra's al Ghul

The Black Glove

RIP

Final Crisis



The following stories take place after the events of Final Crisis

Battle for the Cowl

Batman and Robin Batman Reborn

Life After Death

Arkham Reborn

Time and The Batman

Batman and Robin Batman vs Robin (The Green Lantern crossover Blackest Night takes place sometime before this storyline)

Batman The Return of Bruce Wayne

Bruce Wayne The Road Home



These stories take place after the events of The Road Home

Batman and Robin Must Die

Eye of the Beholder

The Black Mirror

Batman the Dark Knight Golden Dawn

Batman and Robin Dark Knight, White Knight

Gotham shall Be Judged

Gates of Gotham (acts as prelude to the New 52 Owls storyline)

Batman INC.



New 52 relaunch

Owls storyline-

Batman-Court of Owls

Nightwing- Traps and Trapezes- both act as preludes to Night of the owls

Night of the Owls- crosses over into numerous issues



Singular New 52 stories not part of the Night of the Owls crossover

Detective Comics- Faces of Death

Batman and Robin- Born to Kill

The Dark Knight- Night Terrors

Batman Inc Vol 2



Going through my Batman collection I forgot to mention

Batman The Cult (takes place before A Death in the Family)

Gothic

Dead to Rights

Four of a Kind

The Cat and the Bat

Fortunate Son

Haunted Knight (collection of the Legends of the DK halloween specials)

Gotham Underground

Return of Hush

Heart of Hush

Detective

Robin Year One

Nightwing Year One

Batgirl Year One

Ten Nights of the Beast

A Lonely Place of Dying

The Return of the Joker

Death and the City

Long Shadows

Venom

Rules of Engagement

Lovers and Madmen

The Last Arkham (introduces Victor Szasz)

Anarky In Gotham City

Batman Year Two

Batman Year Three

And how could I forget The Dark Knight Returns and it's sequel the Dark Knight Strikes Again.

And because I like the story Trinity which details the post crisis/pre-flashpoint first meeting between Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. There's also the Superman/Batman comics to collect if you're interested in World's Finest. I enjoyed the series as they're two of my favorite superheroes.



One of my favorite TPs is Birth of the Demon. It collects Son of the Demon, so if you purchase this you get that (which is important to Batman BTW) as well as two other stories Bride of the Demon and Birth of the Demon, all deal with Ra's attempt at finding a successor.



and I forgot to mention Venom. Another good story form the Legends imprint.

Answer 2

Heres a list a made from many reading orders out there (Sorry for any mistakes).... I Put it in 3 categories.... depending how far back you want to go for reading. I'd really suggest reading Parts #02 & #03.... That will put you right at the start of DC's rebooted 52..... And all of these can be found in torrents to download (i found and got them all from there). Use Utorrent with kickass torrents, h33t, piratebay, and also direct downloading like filestube.com and such for those certain issues you struggle to find.
