In the third volume of Scott Snyder's best-selling ALL-STAR BATMAN, a rotating team of all-star artists join the Bat-scribe to tell tales featuring some of Batman's most deadly foes For more than 75 years, Batman has been one of the most widely recognized and revered superheroes in all of comics. While not all of his stories are home runs in the same vein as the Court of Owls or Dark Mirror, his top ten stories with Batman rank among the best in the characters' history. Snyder's Batman run is often cited as one of the best comics in the 2010s, with many of his stories have become instant classics. RELATED: Every Detective In The Bat-Family, Ranked By Intelligence ![]() Snyder help created the very popular Court of Owls, ushered in a new origin for Bruce Wayne, and help construct one of the best Batman stories featuring Dick Grayson as the Dark Knight. He would write stories with a fresh new take on the character and his world, introducing new ideas and concepts that have been quickly accepted by the fan community. Whereas Morrison wrote stories that incorporated all facets of the character's history, Snyder went with more original, high concept stories when writing for the Caped Crusader.
