Batman: Time and the Batman by Andy Kubert, Frank Quitely, Grant Morrison, Tony S. Daniel, Fabian Nicieza, Cliff Richards, Richard Friend, David Finch
4.0
Here we go.
This is the book that's gonna tie all the loose ends up for you if you've been reading "Batman: R.I.P." and "Final Crisis". It's essential in the reading of Morrison's run on the Bat-titles and examies some of the cooler elements he's brought to Batman and the DCU, while exhibiting some of his trademarks.
The last chapter in the book also seems to serve as the perfect gateway into Morrison's transition from the Batman title to Batman & Robin, in which Dick Grayson (former Robin and Nightwing) is Batman and Damian Wayne (Bruce Wayne & Talia al-Ghul's son) is Robin, while Batman (Bruce) is... whatever he is.
The stellar art continues in this one, too, as Tony Daniel, Andy Kubert, Frank Quitely and David Finch (Are those not some of the best names in the industry?) flex their artistic talents. A number of other talents join those big name and do stellar work, as well.
I recommend this for anyone who might be a bit confused about what happened to Batman in "Batman: R.I.P" or "Final Crisis". Also recommeded to Morrison fans, Batman fanatics (who've read R.I.P. & Crisis), and fans of the Christopher Nolan Bat-flicks (Come see a different take on the Caped Crusader that just may blow your mind.)
