Why read it?

1 author picked Batman as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The Bat-family is one of the greatest teams in comics, an assemblage of damaged warriors of varying ages, all bonding over their shared trauma.

The book is hilarious and heartfelt, a perfect distillation of the loving, rambunctious core of one of the genre's most beloved families.
