An elaborate inspection of the psychology, archetypes and mythology of the Dark Knight in ways that call back to his meta-canon (across the Golden Age to Modern Age of comics), yet refresh it in ways unthinkable prior to Morrison's unique touch and delicately crafted mystery, noir and psychedelia. The psychological explorations of this story are
nothing short of page turners.
Excellent dust jacket and hard-cover design too. Highly recommended. A must-have saga for Morrison-fans, conspiracy theory buffs, Damian Wayne, Ra's Al Guhl, Joker slasher super sanity, its tie-in to Final crisis.

or if you just love Batman…
YOU NEED TO OWN THIS BOOK!!!
It is the BEST way to read Grant Morrison’s Batman!
This Deluxe sized book is nicely constructed with stitched binding and nice thick pages.
The paper feels a slightly heavier stock and is slightly less glossy, than that of the previous hardcover editions. The color in this new omnibus also seems more vibrant as well.
It has no new bonus content other than an introduction by Mike Marts.
Tony Daniel’s variant covers for Batman #676-#683 are now at the back of the book along with Adam Kubert’s variant cover for Batman #655.
Thankfully this omnibus not only collects all the issues from ‘Batman & Son’, ‘The Black Glove’ and ‘Batman RIP’ but they’ve now finally included an abridged version of issues #30 & #47 from the ’52’ series. The pages included focus on Bruce undergoing the Thögal ritual in the caves of Nanda Parbat. These events are later brought up by Tim Drake to Alfred in Batman #676 ‘Batman RIP’, and explain why Tim was concerned with Bruce’s state of mind.
One of the BEST new inclusions (exclusive to this omnibus) are two brand new pages written and drawn by Chris Burnham. These new pages fill in events for ‘The Resurrection of Ra's Al Ghul’. The new pages are placed just after Batman #670 and another after Batman #671.
This will save you from having to read a drawn out cross-over event, where only two of the issues were actually written by Morrison.
Directly after ‘Batman RIP’ concludes there are two pages of excerpts from ‘Final Crises’ bracketing Batman issues #682 & #683 ‘Final Crisis: Last Rites’. These excerpts set up the events and give actual context as to what’s going on, rather than reading ‘Last Rites’ over and over trying to figure out what was going on like I had to. The second page of ‘Final Crisis’ excepts shows what happened to Batman, that set up the events for ‘Batman & Robin: Batman Reborn’ where…..
(((((SPOILER!!!))))(((((SPOILER!!!))))(((((SPOILER!!!))))(((((SPOILER!!!))))
(((((SPOILER!!!)))) Dick Grayson takes over as Batman. (((((SPOILER!!!))))

Sure this “spoiler” is many years old, but you always have to try to think of new readers.
Grant Morrison’s Batman is not only one of my favorite Batman runs, but it’s also one of my ALL-TIME favorite comic runs as well. There are not many comic stories that I can read and re-read cover to cover. I have read this run numerous times, and can safely say that I have read it more than any other story. Sometimes I’ll even start another re-read after I’ve just finished.
One of the many things I love about this run is Morrison’s voice for Batman.
He can be intimidating. He's not someone you would want to mess with, but he's also very cool. He has a likable quality. He has heart.
Personally I feel there are few writers that even come close to capturing Batman and supporting characters as well as he does, especially his voice for Alfred Pennyworth. Morrison's dialog between members of the Bat-family is a pure joy to read. It's fun spending time with them.
I’m absolutely thrilled to add this omnibus to my Grant Morrison collection, and will be eagerly looking forward to the other volumes!
As I’ve saiid before, if you are a Batman fan then you really do need to own this book!
