Long Halloween Prequel
Format: Paperback
We can see here the first try of what would become a legendary duo for Batman, and it's a very decent one. These 3 stories are inspired by 3 different themes: Fear, Madness, and Ghosts. Personally, Madness was the best one; I've always found the Mad Hatter e very curious villain in this world and the tie-in to Bruce's childhood is a nice feat. The Ghosts story feels very rushed once the second spirit visits (Joker), so it lacks depth in the analysis it's trying to do emulating 'A Christmas Carol'.

Just Classic Batman!
Format: Kindle
I don't think I have read these tales in about 20 years. I miss Jeph Loeb on Batman. While I think he put a great spin on Superman, Loeb set the foundation for all of the visual medium for Batman. This collection of three one-shots gives us good Scarecrow and Mad Hatter Halloween stories. My favorite was the final story with a retelling of A Christmas Carol but Halloween and Batman.

These stories are well written and have a unique take on several beloved characters… I completely recommend this for some light reading in between some of the more intense story’s.
