I'm just lately diving deeply into the Batman comics, although I read them a long time ago, and I am a big fan of him as an iconic figure. To my surprise, I found out late last year that he had an actual son. Luckily, my library has a few of these books about Batman and his son, and this is one of t...
Without a doubt, the best Batman graphic novel since Hush. Absolutely a five star collection... ...except for the weird, abrupt ending. This book collects the eponymous arc, The Clown at Midnight, and the related four issue, Three Ghosts of Batman. I have no problem with Batman and Son. It...

The Interlude really sold me on this one, but the rest was also really great.
The most important part of this collection is right there in the title: Batman has a son, his name is Damian, and he's a jerk. Can't stand that kid.

I started this really looking forward to it, and somehow the author just dropped the ball on the plot towards the end. Now, in the interest of disclosure, I am not a comics fanboy or expert, more like a casual reader. But I have to agree with some of the commenters here that Morrison simply lost con...
In the middle of a story involving man-bat ninjas, among other things, Ra's Al Ghul's daughter dumps a ten year old brat off at the Batcave, saying he's Batman's son. Damian, raised by the League of Assassins, shakes things up immediately and raises the ire of Robin. Who will emerge as Batman's he...
