Just reread Batman: "Hush", god what an awesome story.

It really is a great detective story that set up some great possibilities in the DCU continuity. Highly recommend it.

It's a trade/g.n., collects Batman #608-#619. It seriously keeps you guessing till the end.

absolutely, Hush is one of the better examples of where comics are today. Although I feel like a lot of Batman is going over the same stuff, they really are drawing up all the history and character dynamics over and again.

I think the only problem with Hush was the dedicated build up was somewhat resolved in a very 'until next time' conclusion.

that and Harley Quinn makes me such a geek.

Hush was a great Batman story. Any time you put talents like Jeph Loeb and Jim lee together you're bound to get gold.

I agree, I have the absolute edition. Big ass pages and a hardcover with extra artwork by Lee. How's the Resurrection of Rha's Al Ghul line? I didn't know about the story until I read an article on it.

I might buy it for my nephew, as I have the two TPB volumes.

I refuse to read the "continuation" of the story that happened on Gotham Knights, as I've read it fuckin' ruins it. However, I dl'ed the Batman Annual #25, that explains the return of Jason Todd, and ties in directly to Hush.

I thought it was just ok. I don't really think it holds up compared to the other "events" that were going on at the same time.
