Recently, while reading writer Bryan Hill's current story in Detective Comics (with artists including Miguel Mendonça and Philippe Briones), we thought to ourselves: wouldn't it be great if Batman comics were like this all the time? No offense to the other seventeen current Batman comics, of course It's just a matter of preference[...]
