    Nightwing
    Batwing

    Snyder's overplaying the whole "You're my King and I'm your jester" element in this arc - #16 was the height of it. The concept itself is interesting, but he was banging on about it loads in interviews and thus basically gave away the entire basis of the story. He tries to make everything 'epic' but too much epic and it all becomes mundane. Will be sticking with the book anyway 'just because'.
    Layman's book is much more chilled out however; it's just a really good ride.
    Nightwing I pick up for an alternate angle on Gotham and because it oftens sync up nicely with Snyder's book, and I've had a soft spot for Grayson since first watching Batman Forever.
    Batwing has its ups and downs, but when a decent Tinasha story comes along it's up there with the best. David is the best new charaac

    I might pick up Batgirl when it fits in well with whatever Bats and Nightwing are up to, as in the current Death of the Family crossover, but no real interest in being a regular reader.

    Couldn't care less about the rest of the 'family'; not because I think the books are bad, but I just don't have an interest in reading those characters.

    Nope. Just Batwoman, BoP and Batgirl. Catwoman remains precariously on the fence and World's Finest was dropped after about 4 issues.

    Batman: The Court of Owls arc was really great, and I'm waiting for the trades for Death of the Family. I have no issues with Snyder's take on the Batman mythos.

    Batwoman: I love how she's dealing with a different side of Gotham as well as how she's just a totally different character than other Bat-members. The darkness, mystical creatures, her lesbian nature, and of course the art has made this a pleasure to read.

    Batwing: Heard interesting things, as well as I'm hungry for something a bit different int he Bat-canon. I'm not a reader of of any Batman, Inc. though, but I have a feeling I'll like it. The Vol 1 TPB is on its way to me from Amazon.

    Catwoman: I know this series gets ripped a lot, but I've enjoyed the first story arc. So I'm keeping on with it.

    Nightwing: Just received the Vol 1 trade. Looking for more of Snyder's Gotham.

    I really don't think I can get into Batgirl, even though the series gets good word-of-mouth. Detective Comics bored me. Dark Knight seems campy, despite the great art. Not interested at all in Batman and Robin or Batman, Inc.

    Catwoman. I'm starting to acclimate to Nocenti.

    Also World's Finest for Helena Wayne

    Trade waiting Batwoman (I think it reads far better that way).

    I casually drop and pick up Batman and Robin.

    I've been getting everything as a result of the zero issues/Death of the Family, but after the event ends I'll be dropping the books that haven't impressed me.

    As of right now, I'm keeping:
    Batman
    Batman Inc. (at least until Morrisson is done)
    Batman: The Dark Knight (Ethan Van Sciver gets 2 issues to impress me)
    Catwoman (Nocenti is terrible, but I have a complete run of Catwoman from 1993 on, so it's tough to drop)
    Batgirl
    Batwoman (but I'm considering switching to trades after this mega-arc concludes)

    Dropping:
    Detective Comics
    Nightwing
    Batman and Robin
    Red Hood (may give it another shot if Tynion gets great reviews)
    Teen Titans
    Talon (gave it 4 issues, it's just meh)
    World's Finest (not exactly a Bat-book, but dropped after the Damian 2-parter)

    I have a natural immunity to her writing. I don't mind being confused. LOL.
