"Batman Graphic Novels"


  

          

I'm just getting into Batman graphic novels and was looking for suggestions, answers, etc. from you more experienced cats. I read Batman: Year One last night, bout to read The Killing Joke, and also bought The Long Halloween and Dark Victory. I've been trying to find The Dark Knight Returns for ages now cuz everyone says it's crazy, but it's sold out all across the city (should be getting it soon tho, place in my neighbourhood is getting a shipment in tomorrow).

So apart from these aforementioned titles, what else should I look out for? Are there any other greats or "must-reads?" I'm thinking of buying Hush since I've heard a lot of people talking about it before, and the plot of Knightfall sounds dope, but then again I took a quick skim through it in the store and it looked a lot less dark and mature(?) than the ones above, you know, almost, cheesy or cartoony, meant for a younger audience (...I dunno, maybe not, that's why I'm asking). Is it worth picking up? How bout The Man Who Laughs?

Any feedback would be great. Thanks in advance. Can't wait to read all these. Peace for now.
