Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted February 16, 2003 Report Posted February 16, 2003 No poll because there are WAY more than five choices. I nominate either GOTHIC or VENOM. The first because it was the arc that really put the title on the map and the second because it was the story that made Batman human, and showed he could make mistakes.
Guest DrTom Posted February 16, 2003 Report Posted February 16, 2003 "Venom," definitely. It really showed Batman's human side, and illustrated that even a man with perhaps one of the strongest wills in the world can be tempted by the lure of easy power and quick solutions.
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted February 16, 2003 Report Posted February 16, 2003 I forgot to mention GOING SANE, an arc that definitly showcased the Batman/Joker dynamic, and why they need eachother more than either of them care to admit.
Guest Sassquatch Posted February 17, 2003 Report Posted February 17, 2003 Venom hands down. This was *the* story in which fans got to see just how closely they could relate to Batman. In the DCU, that is not an easy task and when Batman succombed to taking the drug, you could hear the fans gasping. Honorable mention goes to Going Sane which had a nice twist on the Joker/Batman/Bruce Wayne relationship that had never been done before.
Guest Annoyed Grunt Posted February 17, 2003 Report Posted February 17, 2003 I always liked Blades by James Robinson and Tim Sale. But yeah, Venom is the best.
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted February 18, 2003 Report Posted February 18, 2003 Let me put this another way... I've bought Venom and Shaman: What is the next arc of LOTDK I should buy.
Guest Sassquatch Posted February 23, 2003 Report Posted February 23, 2003 You should buy "Gothic" which was written by Grant Morrison when he wasn't a jackoff.
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted February 24, 2003 Report Posted February 24, 2003 Sass... I have that too. This is what I have: Shaman Going Sane Gothic Venom Images I'm sorry dude.
Guest Sassquatch Posted February 25, 2003 Report Posted February 25, 2003 Buy "Prey" and "Faces" then.
Guest TheZsaszHorsemen Posted February 25, 2003 Report Posted February 25, 2003 Faces was a Matt Hagan Two-Face story right? Should I buy "Run Riddler Run"?
Guest Sassquatch Posted February 25, 2003 Report Posted February 25, 2003 "Daces" was a 3 part story that involved Two-Face. I have not read "Run Riddler, Run" yet.
Guest Vyce Posted February 28, 2003 Report Posted February 28, 2003 Faces was Two-Face, yeah. GREAT story. It was actually the first LOTDK run that I ever picked up, back when I started to seriously collect comics. Loved it. I'm partial to Blades too. Venom would be the best, though.
