Six Great Batman Comics:

Year One  Frank Miller & Dave Mazzucchelli. Miller only has a few tricks but uses them all here, to great effect. And Mazzucchellis artwork is just that  a work of art.The Long Halloween/Dark Victory  Jeph Loeb & Tim Sale. A thoroughly satisfying, epic tale that manages to incorporate the entire Rogues Gallery.The Dark Knight Returns  Frank Miller. A lot of folks think this story of Batmansreturn from retirement in the Reagan-era is overrated, but I dont agree. A greatending.Gothic  Grant Morrison & Klaus Janson. There are a number of great Batman horrorstories, and this is my favorite.A Death In The Family/A Lonely Place Of Dying  Jim Starlin & Jim Aparo. A littlesilly in parts but still the ultimate Robin story line.Honorable Mention: The Killing Joke  Alan Moore & Brian Bolland. This one doesnt really count, as its actually more of a Joker comic. Still, its definitely worth your time.
