I may be alone in this but I really enjoyed the New 52 Batman and Robin series, it was a great look at the relationship between Bruce and Damian I have been enjoying it immensely as well but I think I liked Morrison's run a little more, it was just a tad more wacky; like a twisted version of the Adam West show. I liked Morrison's stuff too, but mostly only for the Damian parts. I hate RIP with a passion. |

Yeah, other than the relationship with Jezebel Jet I thought RIP was a little to weird but I loved his run on Batman and Robin with Dick under the cowl and the Club of Heroes story he did is probably in my top ten Batman stories of all time. |

The Quitely issues were aces |

What I would buy
 Morrison's Batman
 any Sock Monkey I could find
 Lasted 12 issues and an OGN, but the best. Look at that creative team ! Think Hill Street Blues meets the Legion of Super-Heroes. Nuff Said

 Morrison / Quitely
 Chaykin & Tischman and McKone / Palmiotti. This is criminally overlooked.
 another run mostly by Johns. Get the entire run if you like the Earth-2 characters even a little.

I haven't read the Hawkman series, but I have found everything else I saw by Ben Raab literally unreadable. I could not make it through more than 3 pages of one of his comics.

Not a Raab fan either, but the Hawkman is a serviceable story (making it one of Raab's better efforts), it's the Lark art that makes it an attraction for me. -M |

I know I'm in the minority, but I found Top 10 pretty boring

Top 10 was my favorite ABC thing that wasn't Cobweb.
Really, for me, the best stuff of the last fourteen years hasn't been DC/Marvel trademarks, for the most part, but Top 10'd be in there, and Planetary, though it started in 1999.

Top 10 is the best comic where a man fingerbanged a vending machine ever.
