    Discussed
    “Well, isn't Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight" series doesn't even make Batman a little more ambiguous and a little more like crossing the line of morality? Yes, but through still an heroic lens.”

    Recommended
    “There is another series called "Dark Knights Metal" which looks sick and super metal. Apparently, it involves an army of evil Batman from an alternate universe that invades the main DC universe.”

    Absolute Batman: Deluxe Edition Vol.

    Recommended
    “And the current run with the absolute series is worth a read if you like DC and you like comics. Absolute Batman is a wildly different and more controversial character.”

    Sean Murphy · at 55:13

    Discussed
    “And I had to look this up, full disclosure folks. There is what called Batman colon white knight. That's from the author Sean Murphy. In that story, if I'm remembering correctly, the Joker regains his sanity and he runs for office in Gotham.”
