    I have recently been on a kick in terms of re-reading some of the great Batman Graphic Novels. I was curious to see everyone elses favorites.

    Here is a pretty much spot on list from IGN that chronicles their opinions of the top 25.

    This is the Top 5 according to IGN.

    #5 The Long Halloween

    #4 Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth

    #3 The Killing Joke

    #2 The Dark Knight Returns

    #1 Batman : Year One

    The Long Halloween, in my opinion, is the greatest. What do you guys think? Which one is your favorite??

    The Long Halloween is my favorite and Year One is a close second.

    Has anyone read the new Batman #1? thoughts? Thinking about picking it up this weekend.

    I love Arkham Asylum.

    The whole thing with Two Face is just incredible.
