If you haven't been reading Grant Morrison's Batman, then you need to dig them up and get into them. Over the last 22 issues or so, Grant has built up a typically intricate collection of plot points, back-story and now with the launch of the ominous sounding 'Batman R.I.P' storyline, we get to see all the threads tie together and some of the most exciting story-telling since 'No Man's Land'.

Grant, as much as he is excellent at any length story-telling, always excels at the longer game and given the chance to unfold a map of story over a generous number of issues, will show his skills and command of the genre and the art-form as few can.
