Batman Incorporated is the pinnacle of the strongest of the New 52 books, and there are many reasons for that. Mainly, the immensely talented creative team puts forth a confident and fully-integrated vision for a risky direction in Batman's crime-fighting career. The stakes are huge and emotionally potent. BI #5 ties together multiple story threads hearkening back to the pre-New 52 "The Return of Bruce Wayne", "Time and The Batman", "R.I.P.", and Morrison's "Batman & Robin". This issue is so personal and painful, but also whimsical and wonderful. For the uninitiated, seek out Batman issues #666 and 700 to get a glimpse at the bigger picture. I'm a Morrison freak, I admit it, but this is truly one of the best single issues I have ever read.
