If I want to get a collected series of Batwoman what should I get?

Elegy or Hydrology 1?

MykeHavoc · 04-25-2013, 01:49 PM

Elegy is chronologically first.

As for Nightwing, I find Higgins' writing to be kinda meh. He's still fairly new and needs some more experience under his belt to hone his craft. But a lot of people enjoy the book, so you could give it a spin. Latest issue was the start of a new arc and a good jumping on point.

The Hydrology book does sound pretty cool, but the follow-up trade involves a team-up with Wonder Woman in a battle against Medusa or some shit, and that throws me off. But I understand that Batwoman digs more into the supernatural than the other N52 Bat-titles, so that's just what the book is.

I do have the Batwoman #0 issue which I've heard is a good place to start. I'm going to check that out and see what all the fuss is about.

I love Williams' art, but never got hugely into the character. I like her fine as a supporting role, like in 52 or Morrison's run, but I didn't deeply connect with her enough to really keep up with the book.

Ok thanks. I have bought some of the issues of Batwoman including issue 0. I like character and the art and want to read more. I do agree with the super natural Medussa angle. Not my cup of tea.

Just finished book vol 3 of Morisons Batman & Robin. I was a little disappointed and thought it lacked closure.

Story ain't over, man. It goes right into Batman Inc.

kristoffer · 04-27-2013, 06:12 AM

Ok. I have read the latest two issues of that series.

But not the rest and I am still missing Batman RIP.

MykeHavoc · 04-27-2013, 09:02 AM

Dude... lol

I can't illustrate enough the importance of reading his entire run in order to get the full effect.

kristoffer · 05-08-2013, 03:51 PM

I kinda stopped buying issues but I will get right on it once the "Year Zero" arch kicks off next month.
