Batman, Volume 6: Graveyard Shift by Marguerite Bennett, Scott Snyder, James Tynion IV, Gerry Duggan

Mostly these are one off stories, but there's enough connecting tissue that I would consider it an important part of the New 52 run. There's important Harper Row material as well as dealing with Bruce's emotional state after Plus a change of pace is nice.

It’s a book that collects material between story arcs. Kinda forgettable, honestly.

This is a weird mash-up of disjointed stories that show the weaknesses and frustrations of the new 52. There are a couple of bright points in the book (like the Anchoress) but more low points (like Batman and Superman fighting what amounts to a ghost. If I didn't love Batman so much, I'd probably stop reading this series right now.

As per usual, I enjoy Snyder's special curlicues on the Batman stories. Some of these are good, the Arkham one is really good and the teasers to Zero Year are great callbacks to one of my favorite arcs.

Not bad. Oddly enough the Synder stories were my least favorite of this random bunch (I love Snyder). I liked Duggan as usual, and Bennett was great as well.

3.5 - 4 for me as this was a compliation of stories as opposed to one solid story arc. Some of the stories were better than others, but the collected group was enjoyable

This turned out better than expected. A compilation of 4 short stories, some of which follow up from shorts in previous issues.

This is a random collection of leftover stories. It really doesn't work as a whole. The stories are very uneven. Most of them feature Batman/Bruce coping with Jason Todd's death. Clayface, Catwoman, and Superman all show up. Highlights: the Clayface story line. Low point: a villain called "Spoiler" that knows the future.
