Dennis O'Neil Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The writer who took Batman back from television camp and made him frightening again. Everything dark about the character since 1970 starts on this shelf.
Bill Finger Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
He named Gotham City, wrote the origin, designed the cowl and got no credit for seventy-five years. Twelve omnibus on this shelf and his name is on none of the covers.
Read article →Jeph Loeb Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The Long Halloween and Hush sit on this shelf, which makes it one of the most bought and most argued-about in Batman collecting.
Michael Lark Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The artist who draws superhero comics as if they were police procedurals. Gotham Central, the Brubaker Daredevil, and no capes flapping heroically anywhere.
Chuck Dixon Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The most productive Batman writer of the 1990s. He built the Gotham that Knightfall broke, and most of the supporting cast modern Batman still runs on.
Jim Aparo Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
He drew Batman for three decades and lettered his own pages. The Knightfall shelf and the Bronze Age Gotham that everything since has been arguing with.
Grant Morrison Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
Ideas first, everything else second. The most demanding shelf in this catalogue and the one that repays rereading more than any other.
Birds of Prey Omnibus Reading Guide: The Gail Simone Run
Two volumes, one complete run, and the book that proved a DC team title could be built around three women without turning into a novelty.
Jorge Jiménez Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The artist who defines what Batman looks like in the 2020s, across three different writers. If you started reading recently, this is the Gotham in your head.
Tom King Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The most divisive Batman run of the modern era, written by a former CIA officer who treats the character as a case study in trauma. You will love it or resent it.
Doug Mahnke Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The artist DC calls when a book needs to be enormous and frightening at the same time. More pages of modern DC's biggest events than almost anyone.
Bruno Redondo Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The most formally ambitious mainstream superhero artist working today, and the clearest. Two things that almost never go together.
Patrick Gleason Omnibus: The Complete Collector's Guide
The artist who can draw a child. It sounds like a small thing until you notice how few of them can, and how much of modern DC depended on it.
