DC's flagship title is relaunched for the first time ever, with new Batman adventures from acclaimed writer/ artist Tony S. Daniel!

A killer called The Gotham Ripper is on the loose on Batman's home turf – leading The Dark Knight on a deadly game of cat and mouse.

Whew! My favorite title of all time and it's not been totally destroyed by this 52 thing!

Really great issue. Love the twist the Joker's taken, no radical personality change for Batman lol...good plot, good writing :)

really? you liked Detective 1? I felt it had needless gore, weak dialogue and inability to decide if it takes place in the past or present.

Better than just some same old same old retread Joker storyline... :D

of the current crop of Batbooks i still think Batwoman #1 and Batwing #1 compete for best of the relaunch, way better then Detective was

Haven't read Batwing yet but I've NEVER liked Batwoman lol
