What is your favorite Batman Storyline? This question is not limited to trades, it can be any storyline written since Detective Comics 27.
My personal favorite is Knightfall.
To me it had everything, Great Writers and Artists, Most of the Rogues Gallery,Alot of The Bat Family and an Epic Story with lasting effects. I have read it several times and its one of those stories that i can read over and over and notice something new each time.
I'm sure we all have many stories that we love, but which one really stands out to you?

Probably R.I.P., but TLH and DKR are close.
EDIT: Oh, Morrison's entire run counts as one story? Then absolutely that.Last edited by TheGoshDarnBatman; 06-23-2012 at 08:22 PM.

War Games is by far the best
Pull List: None. Moving to trade-waiting.

Morrison's run. Nothing comes close to its scope, its metatext, and Morrison's efforts to give Batman psychotherapy and make him more balanced. Nothing is as fun either. It would be really hard to choose one story out of the run, i love them all so much, but "Time and the Batman" is certainly up there in its best moments. So i'll go with that.

As much as I love Morrison's run, I love Year One just a tiny bit more.

The Long Halloween is the best Batman story that I have read. I love Leob's story just amazing. Of course I just re-read HUSH and it might be my favorite... Or then again I love No Man's Land, what a great story... Hmmm... Of course The Dark Knight Returns is good or maybe great...
