review 1: I am a huge Batman fan but I'm still having trouble getting into the groove of the New 52 series. This volume is going back and showing early adventures of Batman as he battles The Red Hood Gang, which I think is supposed to be an early origin of the Joker.

Another really strong Batman book. Scott Snyder's handling of the character has been remarkable; very different from Morrison's runs, but equally as good in very different ways. less
